I work at a library and found this among the journals. Scout who bought Zach Wheat and Casey Stengel among others. I'm hoping the scanner quality is good enough to read....

Still playing around to see if I can get readability above average.

That is a great read and its would have been pretty amazing to see what he had seen in his life as a scout and fan.

Interesting read and I agree with another poster, what a great life and you can only imagine what he experienced in his many travels!

Sounds like how Dave Gettleman picks football players.
