BAsEBALE-ALL THE
Question Whites shut-out Record
Federal League Draws Well.

Some statistical bug from Cleve-
land busts in today with the claim
that Doc White did not pitch Sc con-
secutive shut-out innings in 1904,
setting the mark. at which Walter
Johnson is now shooting.
Docs goose-egging career is sup
posed to have started in the last in
ming of a game against the Yankees
August 8. From then until the Sec
ond inning against st. Louis October
Y the pan was not dented while he
was pitching.
At least, that's what we all
thought, and records seemed to bear
it out. But the Cleveland man claims
to have discovered that in a game
in September the Maps made three
runs against Doc, one in the second,
one in the sixth and one in the ninth.
We have not the record of that game,
and until it is produced Docs Sc in
nings of whitewash stand.
johnson scored his seventh
straight win Of the season and made
it 50 2-3 innings since a run has been
scored on him when he fought the
Sox away from the plate Saturday.
He is Ia innings shy Of Whites
generally accepted mark. The Ma
tionaIs' smoke man viii have a
chance against the Browns this week
to go ahead of White. 1t was the st.
Louis team which smashed Docs
march.
Larry, Lajoie is suffering from a
bum hand and may be out Of the
Cleveland lineup for a few days. He
has been advised to rest up by the
club physician.

Some sections of Ed Walsh, White
-Sox pitching machine, are ready for
a hard campaign in the box. Other
cogs are not quite oiled to the smooth
running notch. L
The big fellow showed this yesterz
day when he beat the Athletics in a
grueIling battle. He was there with
the cunning and nerve; his heart did
not fan In the most trying situations.
But trouble with his arm was respon-
sible for the majority of these crucial
moments. Throughout the game
Walsh favored his pitching member,
cutting loose with his noted splitter
only when it was a necessity.
Another week of daily workouts
and Walsh viii be there. That means
more than that he viii be able to
take his regular turn in the box. 1t
means that Callahan win have res
euer ready to inject into the fray any
time the starting pitcher begins to
wabble. And with Walsh to inspire
them the Sox are liable to come from
behind and win many game while
the glutton holds down the enemy.

o'clock. The contest. in which a
dollar caah prize was offered for
tho best photograph contributed TO
the Circle. was one OF the most
successful held by the club this
summer. There were close TO T5
competitors. so IL can be imagined
that the race for the prize was

ton. These were the require
mentR.
Many boys and girls contributed
photos they had taken themselves.
and. while the pictures were very
good, In most cases they were too
dun to permit their reproduction in
the Circle corner. II requires ex-
cellcnt kodak work to take a pic
ture suited for newspaper columns.
All, those photos sent In TO the
contest which the sender requested
returned will be sent back immeai-
ately after they are used In the Cir
Gle. Those that cannot be used
Will be sent back early next week.
Some boys and girls neglected to
attach their namaa and adarasuaa
to the back OF the photo. which was
one of the rules. thus preventing
their contributions from being con
sidered by the judges.
