JN 1917 Andy Lotshaw was the trainer for the Indianapolis hall club. He was a retired hall player and a man with a family. I hat was the year the younjr ball players had to scurry off to war. Eventually, the Indians reached a point where they ran out of talent except in the positions where older players held forth. The Indians won the American Association pennant, under .lack Hendricks, hut it took some smart maneuvering on the part of Hendricks to finish the season. Hendricks called on Trainer Lotshaw, who filled in at first base and right field. And Lotshaw delivered. Andy was a good hitter in his day and he picked up where he had left off. A “little world series” was played with Toronto of the International League and “Old Man” Lotshaw stayed in there and helped the Hoosiers capture the inter-league title. While the Indians were in Toronto the Canadian war agents collared Lotshaw and suggested that he join the overseas army—not knowing that he was a grandfather. Supported by ofpience.s supplied by the Indianapolis club. Lotshaw was employed as trainer by the Chicago Cubs a couple of years later. He's still there Moreover, the Indianapolis old-timer in recent years has stepped from baseball to football as a trainer. He is "handling” the Chicago Rears of the National Professional Football League now after a hard campaign through spring and summer with the Chicago Cubs, National League Champs. a a a a a a lETSHAW received a good sharp of the Chkaeo Cub 1 ' World Series 'Tui'' this fall and he will collect acain from the Chicago Bears didders.
