fldent ball club ever sailed forth
TO battle than the New York
Giants, today enroute to Chicago

that they had only to continue
playing with tho same speed they
developed In the two games at q.
New York to overcome their
American league foemen and they
felt not the slightest doubt on
that score. The Giants were
frank to confess that they regard
the White Sox as already beaten,
but they do not display the
slightest tendency to under-ratc
their opponents, They expressed
a belief that Manager Rowland
OF the White Sox will almost GER
tainly start Cicotte OF shine ball
