CHICAGO PLAYERS
START FOR WEST

| CHICAGO, Feb. 25.-Under the lead
ership of their new manager, Hugh
Duffy, the Chicago White Sox will
leave today on a special train of six
Pullmans for San Francisco. This will
be the last time, according to President
Comiskey. that the Sox will train in
California
With a good trip, the Sox special
will reach San Francisco next Monday
night.
There the squad will be divided into
two teams one remaining in San Fran
cisco and the other going to Los Ange-
les. Exhibition games with the coast
league teams and in smaller towns
will begin on March g. Four weeks win
be spent in this manner, the Sox leav-
ing for the east on March q.
Manager Duffy will have an excel
lent opportunity to inspect the talent
Owner Comiskey has picked up since
last year and Chicago critics are al
ready predicting that he will have a
strong base ball team. Duffy says he
could not improve on Walsh, Smith.
Scott Burns and White as pitchers.
He is also satisfied with catchers Sui
Ivan and Owen, but he will have to re-
organize the rest of the team.
Duffy takes a crack shortstop in
Blackburn from Providence to the Sox

which means that Freddy Parent may
play second base, permanently and
George Davis may be fixture at first
tase
There is so much rivalry in Chicago
partisan fans have been at odds all
winter. The Cubs won the post-season
series last fall with comparative ease,
but the SoX were plainly demOraliZed.
The appearance of Duffy on the JOB
as manager of the Sox, however, has
made an impression and as the Cubs
did not win the pennant last year the
American league adherents insist thai
Chances men are going back steadily,
while the Sox are due to come again.
Although the Sox have slight start,
The Cubs are also reporting in Chica-
&C today, and will Immediately head
fo~ West Baden, Ind, to remain there
about a week, and are due at their
permanent training ground, New Or
leans. March 4. On the sixth they will
open their series with the Pelicans,-
and after a rest of two days they Will
start a campaign of exhibitions that
will keep them busy right up to April

It is safe to say no major league

strong teams on a spring trip. Besides

About the time that Henry Rameses

used to say with pride. Some of the To-
cal fight fans grew interested and the
youngster was invited to work in a
gymnasium and give people a line on
him. He stripped so much like a bear
that a private battle was arranged and
Henry Ram Griffin was selected as the
old trial horse. They knew that Ram
would get him if anybody in town
could do the trick. Jeff told me about

before the punch came over, but man
who saw that fight told me that Jeff
didn't land a glove on the crafty old
campaigner until he landed the one
punch that stopped the fight, and when
it did go over-good night! Several
years later, when Jeff was the cham
pion of the world, he appeared in a
at Hazards pavilion, which cannot
be considered as a fight because Jeff
wasn't trying and Rameses was foot
