HarrietFrederick Mitchell Walker aka Mysterious Walker was my grandfather. My father told me Fred got the nick name because he was AWOL from games and when he turned up, his pitching was inconstant. However, he was pretty consistent OFF the field - which doesn't really count! Very tough & stern man. His also had a passion for football - he coached at University of Texas and Chicago, and all 3 of his sons playing college football, with Paul Frederick Walker football captain of Yale 1946 going on to play pro football. Does anyone have any photos they can share with me? I'm living in Australia and hard to find stuff down here. Many thanks.
