Dryden Picks Walsh
To Pitch Every Game
Of Sox-Cubs Series
Says Deduction, Analysis, From
Charts and the Big Reel"
Will Figure in the Seance.
By Charles DRYDEN.

~ UR White Sox are now en-
- gagged in another cementins
expedition. They are now
in Detroit, q of them, personally
conducted by James John Callahan
and Secretary Conahan, and they
are playing a final series with the
Tigers. The outcome of this Sc
ries, while the Maps are battling
the Browns. will settle the vexed
question of fourth place. That is
the position the Sox are bent on
having. as there Is nothing within
reach higher up and II James John
meets with any luck his team
should finish there
For TWO days Just before the Sox
left home they were not idle There
was nothing doing on their own
lot, but the vacant time was not
squandered Bunches of Sox. in
Guiding the manager, sat through
the doings on the West Side and
took lessons from the Pirates on
how TO trim the Cubs. Bill Glea-
son was there with his 500 kettle,
clocking Cub base runners and
composing a form chart for the
guidance of Sox catchers.
The science of deduction and
analysis is to figure in the city"se-
ries. In addition to the Gleason
form chart Ed Walsh intends to
have samples Of Larry Cheney's
al n
ming the Pirates whacked Larry
pretty hard and Walsh wants to
avoid whatever combination of
juice producers Cheney was using.
Not that Walsh has anything to do
with the Pirates, but saliva is
saliva the world over and a bloke
must be careful how he EMPLOYS it
in pinch.
