' W h) don t jou ask I'erkius about Hint guy ork"' ' murmured Matty

all there traj to ir."
Plenty of Chance for the Neiv Boys
RONNIE has an entirely new sntcrn of developing a winning ball club.
Instead of bolstering the appnrent weak spots, he fired the whole dub and
replaced the elerans with niw men. Joe Pugnn was the onlv arsity man in
the game mid was stuck at third base, where lie covered as much ground as
Tionld be used to build a doghouse fur a 1'omernninn pup. (iriffm at tirst
IJjkes at (second, finllowiij at shoit and Wingo, Welsh and High in the out
field made the fans rub their cms and wonder who's who
' That isn't a new schdne with me," said Manager .Maik during the
famous interview "I would have done the same thing lust ytar and the
year btfori had I been able. I am (irmly convinced it 'h the only way to
build up a good ball club, and the building process has bigun. We were
losing games with the old men in the lme-up, and we cannot bo any worse
now. In fact, those Inst three games were the best 1 have seen in years.
The new men arc in there eviry dav, pitted against the best players in the
lcngtio, and if they have anything thev will show it. If iun discover three
or four good ones I shall be satisfied.
"I do not intend to change the line up for a time, nt least. Perhaps
I could put some of the older plavcrs in and strengthen the club, but those
boys are showing so much pep and aggressiveness that I shall let them run
loose for a time.
"You know, I am building for tbo future. I have more players than I
know what to do with, but every man will be given a thorough tryout. I have
been up ngainst it for pitchers, but can't complain now. There are twenty
four liurlcrs on the pJjroll, and a few should come through."
"Do you expect nnj more new men?" Connie was usked.
"No, I think not," he replied. "Perhaps a couple of cntchers and a few
pitchers uud iiihelders will arrive next week, but outside of thut I don't
expect anything."
JlflACK hat been buying players by the tloien, and three or four in a
' bunch noic mean nothing to him. He prefers doing a xcholesale
business.
White Sox Erase Mr. Xork Early
AS FOtt the ball game, It was won in the first inning, when the mys
terious Mr. York permitted himself to be binged for five blngles, handed a
pair of bases on balU to the foe, saw Dugau and Wingo pull a couple of bones
and six runs trickled over the homo plate. Only one was out in the first and
nine wen had faced him when Connie used the hook and sent in a bloke
named Roberts to finish the job. Aided by a rainstorm and a desire on the
part of Kid Oleasou to finish the game as soon as possible, nobby got by for
- six innings, when he was erased to allow Strunk to hit for him. Win Noyes
-was the third and last hurler and did not allow the semblance of a score in the
last two innings.
The Sox pmyed like champions, but gained nothing by the victory,
Wlille they were winning Cleveland was trimming Boston, copping the tilt itj
Inst two frames. s.
In the Natioual, Cincinnati beat Iloslou and the Giants walloped St. Iiose,
eo the races are the same as yesterday morning.

The Chief Returns
WiIO says (hey never romc back? A year or two ago Chief Bender ivai
assigned as a star entry in the Ilas-IIccn circle, ouo who had faded never
lo return.
"You, may bo interested (o know," writes n Illchraond expert, "that be
fore the season closed ltender had pitched thirty-ono games with twenty
nine victories and two defeats. Also that he had won twelve gomes In a row.
Also that toward the finish bo pitched and won throo games in three succes
sive dajs. His fast ball, rurve ball and change of pare, all delivered with tht
same motion, resemble the twisters of the IJcndcr of old."
Armii alt, j shouldn't thr Chief blow back for a spcllt Ha Is
ouby a year older than. L'ddte Cicotte, the season's main winner in
either league.
Accepted
ATUItr tennis fan writes in to stale that Urookcs and Dunlop were a greater
doubles team than Brookes and Wilding.
He gives as his authority for this belief statements by Fred Alexander
and Norman Urookcs.
.V VmW of this thr amendment stands accepted. Thr number of
folki m iii trord rAn Anoto worn icnnii than Fred Alexander or
Gorman lliookcn can be tounted on the fingcri of your third hand.
You Know How It Is
1 lives of duffers oft remind us
How to leave thr nrrt bloke sore,
And, departing, rote behind vs
Heel prints tn the sands galore.
Heel prints that perhaps another
Soon will latch along the line;
Rome forlorn and nerve'terccked brother
Who tall take an eight or nine.
w
IN UEHALF of golf we might add these few lines what other sport n the
universe rould produce two championship finalists, aged seventeen and
twenty-two, and then gather a record field for a seniors' tournament where the
ages run from fifty-tiic to eighty?
The Early Lure
I veam to sen with naked aye
The stately spiral, sailing high:
'I he fullback plunginy thiough th line '
To land teith deftncii on his spine;
Thr fumbled punt -the maudlin roar
When some diopkickcr taps a score;
Thr long ind runthe woolly checi
In fact, ihc whole ccstatio smear.
AT THAT u nine-game world series wouldn't bo so bad if one of the two
contendeis would only win five strulght.
WH NOTH where I?abe Illith's "terrific strength" is given most of thoeredlt
for his homo-run rciord. Terrific strength is only 50 per cent of it. Per
fect timing is eqiinll.v important iu obtaining a long-distance range. Ituth can
time his wallop as neatly as Walter Hagcn can time a golf stroke or as btirely
as Hill Johnston can lime a tennis stroke. The big lied Sox. is tho greatest
combination that buseball bus ever known iu the way of sheer physical power
and a well-timed, vo-ordinulcd swing. 'With n full 154-game schedule to shoot
lit he would leave a mark that bhould stand for u pair of generations.
