Mr. Stevens, some time ago, called the attention of Essick to both Worthington and Tony Bernardo, of Eureka. Bernardo is now on the coast and will likely get his chance during the coming baseball season. Worthington will finish his work at the A. C. at Logan next winter, and the recommendation which Mr. Stevens has given him may result In a good baseball offer. He is one of the fastest men in the state, according to track moct records, and Mr. Stevens thinks he has all the earmarks of a big league ball player. His position, up to this time, has been behind the bat although he is able to play in the field. Worthinghead ton is tall, rangy, has and can hit. The use to which he ran put his legs adds to his value as baseball player. W. R.
