ED WALSH a CANDIDATE
FOR CHALMERS TROPHY.
White Sox Pitcher Easily the Most
Valuable Man to His Team.

Big Ed Walsh of the Chicago White
Sox is the latest man to claim the
spot light in the discussion among the
fans as to who will receive the Chal-
mers trophy this year. Last year M liz
Chalmers offered an automobile to the
leading batter. Every one remembers
the close race between Ty Cobb and
Larry Lajoie.
This year it has not been confined to
.batters, but the award is to be given to
the player in the National and the
player in the American league VINO, IN
the opinion of the committee of eleven
newspaper men, has done the best Work
for his team.
The great work of Walsh when he
let down the Boston speed boys with
out a single hit has brought to the
attention of the fans and critics every
where the wonderful record which the
big fellow has been making for himself
with the White Sox.
His great strength and wonderful
ability to come into a game with prac-
valuable to the White Sox. Whenever
any other pitchers have begun to
show any weakness. Walsh is the man
who is always called upon to rescue
the game Moreover he can take his
turn regularly every other day without
apparently losing his strength.
Among the other American league
players who have been most favorably
mentioned for the Chalmers trophy are
Ty Cobb of the Tigers, Eddie Collins,
Bender and Coombs of the Athletics:
and Speaker of the Boston Red Sox,
jackson and Gregg of Cleveland, and
Ford of New York.
When Walsh'S record is seriously
considered however, it is apparent that
his work has meant almost as much to
the White Sox as that of any of the
men mentioned above has meant to
Nearsn c
to be taken out of the White Sox line
up many critics believe that Comis-
keys team would be as helpless as the
Tigers without Cobb.
