Cleveland. o., Sept 2-Chicago's
White Sox looked like the worst team
that ever donned uniforms in any
league yesterday when they lost both
halves of their holiday double bill with
the Maps. Cleveland copied the morn
ing game by a score of, to and rub
bed it in harder in the afternoon, 4
to o.
Not only in the errors they made
which were frightful1y expensive, but
in every other way the White Sox
looked bad They showed plainly they
expected to be beaten by the same old
jinx that Cleveland has had on them
for three years, and they were beaten
just as soon as said jinx showed it's
head.
Both games were tossed off in the
first innings and in the same way. The
Maps were handed three runs at the
start of each combat by White Sox
errors. Weaver gave them the morn
ing game and Chappell handed the aft
ernoon victory.

price received was not as good as the
There is very little damage report
ed so far from bud worms in the corn

from the fact that most of the farm
