Washburn, a native of Caratunk, pitched four years for Solon High before hurling for Great Northern Paper in Madison. He signed with the Boston Red Sox in 1921, but made it only to Portland upon assignment to Lynn, Mass, of the New England league. Maine meant too much to Washburn, whose brother, the late George, entered the hall in '77. Vern Putney PPH 8/16/1980
