Johnny O'Connor 1916

The Facepack image does not picture Johnny O'Connor but rather Dick O'Connor playing for Fall River in 1914. The Chicago newspaper labeled O'Connor a "Boston boy" but his baseball reference page tells us he attended the University of Illinois. I haven't found a record of him in the yearbooks under that name, though there is a Charles Andrew O'Connor there in 1911-1912. O'Connor did play for the Chicago Bankers League in 1916 with the First Nationals. I do not have a photo of him as of yet.
