Walie Schang Used to Be Hailed as Star Backstop of
League But Now It's Schalk Who Can Do All Things Well
Buck Ewing's Equal,
Is Tribute of Chas.
COmiskey

Ray Schalk. Comiskey's catching
marvel. has wen q triumph seldom
achieved by a ball player Of his di.
minutive sire and tender years.
One year ago this young backstop
was singled out among ssveralaas q
candidate for the highest honors In
bis department. Today by . large
majority OF the critics and by moet
OF the fans he Il set dawn IS the
worlds greatest catcher.
Everywhere the Box travel this
season new admirers Of Schalk
spring up to Join the ever increas-
Ing circle who place this young
catcher In q class by himself. The
one convincing thing about schalk
that stamps him as the king OF
present day backstops 10 that he can
do more things we'll than any other
catcher in the big leagues.
Whenever the Sox travel In cities
where the National and American
league teams play. baseball writer's
are found continually reiterating
that Schalk excels any other back
stop in the big circuits.
Recently Schalk ran to third base
TO make a play there when that
position was open. Il have seen
Schalk do about everything on ball
field now except back up second
base" said a baseball writer recent
ly. land expect TO watch him turn
that trick before long"
The National league undoubtedly
has more good catchers than the
American. II counts among its star
backstops such men an Archer, Bres-
nahan. wingo. Gowdy. Meyers KILL
fer and Doom. The younger major
circuit probably cannot enumerate
such bright galaxy of stars but It
has the honor beyond . doubt OF
owning the greatest catcher in the
game in the person Of SchAlk.
President Comiskey Of the sox
thinks Schalk 10 another edition OF
Buck Ewing. which IL putting II as
strong as II could be. Before the ad-
vent Of Schalk the Old Roman
thought Ewing was the greatest
catcher the world had ever seer.
Now he Is wavering The Sox mag
nate Is rot sure but that this young
baseball wizard Is the greatest in his
line of an time.

a "cHEAP" RACE IS
GOLDEN ONE

National league dopesters are
worried because the National league
race is going TO be "cheaply" won
this year. BY that they mean that
the club that taken the pennant will
probably have an average OF less
than 800. Unless the Phillies play
At a .667 gait the rest of the season.
they will be unable to equal the low
est mark that ever took a National
league nag. even II they should cop.
ana rs the Phillies lead the league.
one can see what a predicament the
circuit IL In.
That Ia. II cheap" pennant is a
disgrace. AZ matter Of fact, that
no National league club can via
much more than half Its games Is
providing the circuit with a golden
harvest. The ball playing may not
be as good as in years past, but
there Is q wonderful scrap on, and
the lower the average OF the winner
at the end OF the season the better
year both the magnates and fans
will have had.

to be least popular of late years
