Col. Roosevelt may not be next
president of these somewhat United
States, but he will create some stir
before hostilities are over.
Similarly, Fielder Jones and his St.
Louis Browns probably won't win the
pennant in the American league, but
they will cause some cOmmOtiOn and
will have a lot to say about the final
resting place of the gOnfalOn.
T. R. and Fielder are both back in
the organization after a vacation
with the outlaws and have several
old scores with the conservatives
which must be settled.
Jones isn't heading a WhirlWind
ball team, but he has a combination
which is as good mechanically as the
one with which he won a pennant
and a worlds series when bossing
the White Sox. The same brains may
not be present, but Jones can do a
bit of thinking himself and will ham
die the athletes in a manner to get
the best work from each.
The catching department seems to
be the weakest angle of the club. A
raft of good pitchers may find their
effectiveness Handicapped because of
lack of ability back Of the log. Hart

who are pitching to him.
The infieId is good, fair batting
quartet and strong on defense. In
the Outfield are three fast men who
carry good punch in the war club.
And there is very good reserve
strength in case of injuries.
The Jones people refused to accept
any charity form the White Sox yes
terday, though ROwland's hopefuls
tried desperately to hand them the
game. Eight errors for one afternoon
is more than a major league team
usually makes in week.
On the performances of yesterday
neither team deserved to win. Both
should have been ruled off and the
battle awarded to the Kansas City
Feds. That club is dead, but the
work of the American league con-
tenders was at least decayed.
Evidently the White Sox players
have been reading the papers. IN
like most people, they believe every
thing they see in the public prints.
They have come to the conclusion
that they are busting guys, able to
loft the pill over the hills and far
away. They scorn a base hit as far
beneath the dignity of a guy with a
smuggling reputation.
That doesn't go for all the ath-
Ietes, of course, but it has an appli-

pitchers, who have been wild in both
games, Hap has frowned on free
transportation, preferring to go out
trying to bust the ball into the
bleacher customers. He is hitting
at bad ones and his failure to con-
meet seems to be worrying him.
Far different is Eddie Collins, a real
baIlplayer, who will bat next to Jack
son and who has a chance even to
