Can Collins Rench 800:
And while the subject Is the White
Sox. let US touch again upon the pecul-
lar case of Eddie Collins.
The premier second SaCker is Whirling
into the homestretch at a clip which
he hopes will send him across the 800
mark in hitting-but is he whirling fast
enough. Collins got poor start this
season and he hasn't been connecting
with any startling regularity since that
time The one real ambition of his
life just now IS TO finish better than
500 and so keep up his record of being
a -after-year charmed circle visitor.
But will he realize it,
One statistician figured Collins av-
eraee at round go 4 few days ago. An
other placed the mark at only -27S That
is quite a difference Somebody IS

up gap between -29O nd 500 but If

Jackson has become calloused to such

for -40S-and finished second. In 1912
his score was .395 while the following
year he hammered the ball at a 373

TEW YORK Sept l-The fault
N with the White Sox? Well, in
our opinion. after watching
those Chicogans perform in practically
ali of their New York battles. it seems
that the Sox lack the most essential
part Of a ball cIub-a pinch pitcher
Not since Ed Walsh was shunted off
to the discard have the Sox had real
relief twirler: not since Big Ed" was

fensivelv. ranks among the greatest
