ED WALSH SAYS
 WHITE S0x WILL
 WIN 1912 PENNANT
Meriden Record.)

Big Ed. Walsh, the famous pitcher of the Chicago White Sox leaders in the American league. was in Meriden Sunday, visiting the home folks. As his team was idle in Boston, yester- day. Ed took the opportunity to run over to his home town for the first time since he left here for the train ing camp in April He returned to Boston this morning for the final game with the Red Sox to-day.
 In short talk with our 'sgingery'' self, yesterday, the Chicago star was most enthusiastic over the showing of the Sox so far this season and stated that he himself, Callahan, and every member of the team were confident that by October 9th, that much prized CT be flying over Shibe park, but would decorate the. hagpole at the American grounds in the Windy City.
 Without any doubt we have the finest team of ball players in Chicago this year. said Walsh, that I have ever seen anywhere-and what's more it is a team of fighters, who go after every game with blood in their eye. | and never say die. In Manager Cal lahan, we have one of the best fellows and the most brainy generals that l have ever come, in contact with, and there isn't man on the team that would not do anything for Jimmy"
 
 the Sox most dangerous opponent, the big man said that to him it looked like Philadelphia Critics in general have recently been doping the Red Sox to make the fight, but Walsh thought that if Connie Mack's pitch ink staff got going it would cause Chicago no end of worry. In spite of the great lead that the white hosed men now hold in the race, it was too early in the season to tell much about the ultimate result, he thought, but with the spirit of scrappiness and ab- solute harmony that prevailed in the Chicago team the team that beat them would have to step some.
 Ed was specially we'll pleased with the pitching staff this year. For the past two years, he himself has been the only twirler absolutely to be de- pended upon, but this season, the Sox have a string of twirlers that have been showing better to date than Lange have five straight wins each l to their credit, and are in better form l than ever before, due mainly Ed ex- plained to the fact that he and Calla- l han had been taking them in hand personally. The new recruits Mogridge and Peters, are corkers and this quin- | tet together with Doc White who has not yet rounded into shape, will .make 1 a sextette of artists on the firing line hard to excel.
 The team was weakened by the in- 1 jury to catcher Billy Sullivan short | time ago, but Kuhn has stepped into | the gap in fine shape and Sullivan is coming along nicely. Rath, Lord, Wea- yer and Zeider, were, Walsh stated, an ideal infield, while in the outer gar den Callahan. Bodie and Collins. were
