DDIE Cicotte is one Of the most
n valuable members Of the Chica-
IL go White Sox pitching staff ne
is regarded by the players as a hard
luck pitcher, and there is no denying
that he gets more than his share Of
the tough breaks. Despite his admitted
ability. he was unable TO win at BOs-
ton a trade TO Chicago resulting.
While Cicotte Las pitched fine bail
for the SoX since joining the club, his
margin Of games won would have been
much greater had he secured just an
even break in luck
Back Of certain pitchers a team
seems TO hit poorly and field badly
CiCOtte has lost game after game that
he should have won because OF a break
in fielding. in one game last year
with two down. three easy chances
were offered to make the third out.
but not one was accepted A few base
hits followed and five runs came
across the plate in an inning where
not a run should have been scored
ClcOtte lost that game by one run
margin In many other games his
good pitching has been wasted simply
because his team mates appeared TO
strike a batting or fielding slump
when he did the twirlins-

words of greeting.
IT seems that Quinn, warm hearted.
lOvable old fellow that he is, simply
can't refrain from tanning all those
whom he meets It's his way Of show
ing pleasure, interest, earnestless and
a dozen other emotions.
Louis Cardinals. is an example Of
what sometimes befalls a fellow " no
is too shrewd-
Last winter Higgins made a trade
with the Pirates whereby he got five
ball players for three. Everybody
said Miller had been cheated-and he
was such a nice little fellow, too
Some folks were for reporting Fred
Clarke to the police for his action in
Cheating Miller.
oh, yes, YOU remember how it
turned out, don't you. The men that
huggins gave away flivvered'-and
the five he got rounded into stars and
enabled the Cardinals TO make a great
fight for the penuant in 1914
Since then Higgins has been known
rs the David HaruE' Of baseball. A
dozen times since then Higgins has
tried to make trades-and just about
as often has he been baked.
Gosh, it's awful laments Hug
gins Il believe If I wanted TO trade
slim Sallee and catcher SNYDER for

deal. Every one Of the other mana
gers would think I had a few cards
