The Two Headed Pitcher

(I have had more fun with the following than with any story I have printed in a long time-JCD.)

The two headed baseball pitcher came up from a small town ball club. He was a great, big fellow, with two well developed heads. And he was a phenom with a baseball. Los Angeles reached out and grabbed him, and brought him to the big city to pitch for the L.A. league team.

When the two headed pitcher arrived in Los Angeles, there was a big crowd at the station to meet him. When he got off the train he was wearing a full dress suit, and two silk hats. At sight of him the crowd went into an uproar. This seemed to pazzle the two headed pitcher. 'What the hell's the matter with these people," he.wanted to know; "haven't they ever seen a dress suit before?" **t

His mother came with him. They knew right away it was his mother because she carried a book in her hand entitled-"My Son, My Son."

He didn't get along so well with the bigger league. None of the catchers liked to work with him. They said he kept them confused. They couldn't tell whether he was watching the runner o,n first, the runner on second, was signalling his next pitch, or was firting with a blonde in the grandstand. ***

One evening the two headed pitcher went into the Brown Derby to eat dinner with several friends. They got to bragging about the important people they knew, so not to be outdone the two headed pitcher said he knew Clark Gable; in fact they were buddies. Just then Clark Gable came in and passed right by their table. Going through with his blufr the two headed pitcher smiled and said "Hi, Clark." Gable stared at him, then passed without speaking. One of his pals said to the two headed pitcher "IIow come your buddy didn't speak to you?" And the two headed pitcher said "I{e must not have recognized me."
