A great many visitors at Sportsman's Park wonder why it is that Dr. Bushong never wears a breast protector, it not being generally known that Bush wears one underneath his uniform. A very good idea, I think, as it protects him while at the bat from wild-pitched balls, and saves his breast and stomach from a good many hard raps that he would otherwise encounter.
