hung up a new record that is hard
to approach.
It is reported to us from several
witnesses, and "Art" admits it too,
that he threw a baseball a distance
■ef 127 yards out on the high school
grounds Mopday afternoon. This is
about eight yards short of the
world's baseball throw set by Bob
Musel of the New York Yankees at
135 yards and 6 inches.
