Gleason says Dick Kerr had the same fault when he Joined the White Sox In the training camp, and the Kid had a serious talk with Kerr about It. "You throw your fast ono with a side arm motion, your curve with an overhand throw," Gleason said to Kerr. "You can't get by that way." "I got by all right In the Southern and American Associ ation," replied Kerr. "That may be so but you will never get by In this leoguo If you don't stop telegraphing," retorted Gleason and he set out to show Kerr how to turn the trick.'
