SHORT SUBJECTS
Ernest Sadler, the rookie pkeh-
er who joined the Swatters late in
the 1951 season,' telephoned from
his near-San Antonio home recent-
ly, inquiring about his 1952 eon
traet.
The boy. who has great prospects
as both a pitcher and hitter, is anx-
ious to get the 52 season under-
way.
Several West Texas-New Mexico
League clubs have their eye on
Sadler and would gladly deal for
the tall youth if the Sweetwater
club doesn't operate in the Long-
horn circuit this year
It's Golden Gloves time.
