Default Cleveland Player Photo ID Help

Hi-
Thank you again for everyone's help on the team photo I posted a couple of weeks ago. I really appreciate everyone's time and effort in trying to identify the team.
Below is a scan of a Cleveland player from circa 1920. Any idea who this might be? The uniform resembles Indians uniforms from the late teens and early 1920s. I can provide a better scan if needed.

Thanks in advance,
Alan Elefson

Looks like a 1915 or 1916 uniform to me. I'm assuming there is no information at all on the back of the photo? Also, is that an off-center divot in his chin, or a flaw in the surface of the photo?

Still working on an ID, but I gotta admit, by the time I got halfway through the 1915 roster, every other one is looking like a match to my tired eyes. May take another look at it in the morning when I'm fresh, but hopefully someone else can chime in.

Edited to add: Yikes, does Tim have a mouthful of bees in that photo?

Don to the rescue once again!

I've got to admit, flipping through the headshots on baseball-reference for 1916 Indians players, I don't think I even gave Boehling a second glance:

The only photo I had of him on hand didn't help much either (see below), but I think the second photo Don showed of him is a much more compelling match.
