READER RIGHTS I have been a baseball fan all my life. 1 have seen young pros pects here who never, were given a chance in organized ball. A cer tain young -chap by the name of Dempsey Sekera who is pitching for the Luzerne Anthracite Creations (Independent A League) deserves a chance.

I watched Sekera pitch against our Midvaie team, which is leading the league. He allowed only seven hits and two runs in the first game, and showed excellent control. And in the second encounter he topped that with an 8 to 1' victory, allowing only six hits. I sincerely -believe Sekera Is a good prospect and deserves a chanoer Checking up on his record for this year thus far: In five ames his earned-run average was wo runs and six hits a game. This chap-has.

we ay, something on the Dan. as a base ball fan I know Sekera deserves a chance. JOSEPH DEVLIN. Midvaie. P.
