n in New Tork.-We poor boobs
i who don't know anything ex-
cepung how to play baseball. are
here with two games under our belts
and ready for the third. which,
weather permitting, we will put over
wednesday. You guys may know how
TO play that stock market. society
and bull game, but when it comes
down TO the national pastime. we
have you skinned. With this out
burst Of patriotism we greeted
Broadway, arriving last night with
with woodland birds singing. the
White Sox the meantime maintaining
a discreet but dangerous silence and
the reporters and addadenda soaring
the chorus girls up all the side streets
There is nothing 10 do; we are wild
and woody, We have the pep and the
punch and we are down here after
this championship.
SOE Remain Modest.
The White SOX are striving to re-
main modest and quiet for two more
days. They expect TO sweep this
series, they believe that they viii win
the game Wednesday VITA ClcoJte
pitching and that thep VIII finish the
series by pitching FaDer in the final
game on the Polo grounds.
The invasion on New York
started late yesterday afternoon
when the bowling hOrdes led by
the woodland birds, which re-
relieved the effete Of broadway
from the necessity Of carrying
match Eeratchers. After $ o'clock
last night II WAS possible TO
scratch matches on the necks of
half the persons who were COM
ing down broadway, carrying
large rSllH OF bank notes and ex-
plainfnE to everybody that New

At that, those fellows from some
where west Of the Hudson having
demonstrated that they have a lot OF
hired men who can hurl and hit base
balls were entitled to at least a tenn
pOrary possession of the town.
Beat Clans Easily.
Having licked the Giants they are
entitled to scream a bit and claim
anything they want Neither Mr.
MCGraw nor any Of his cohorts has
any right TO dispute with them at
this stage Of the game their right 10
cheer Yet as an expert, the White
Sox are not in a position to start
their cheering. quite as soon as they
have done. They have demonstrated
that they have a heavier punch than
the Giants have. That they can hit
any style Of pitching McGraw can Of
fer and that they can field quite as
well on the infield. and as wen in the
outfield and perhaps better than the
Giants can

The question now is whether the
psychological effect of the crowd can
even things up As we say "daouWn
Saouth' New York is the Quittenest
town IN the world Whether they
back up the team " ednesday or not is
che question If they do they may up
set the White Sox defence 10 some
extent. but the difference is that
these crude. Grass and uncOuth west
ern rOoterS never Quit on their ball
nAun- that sentiment n|rrz
already won, plus Cicotte. who is a
considerable pitcher, makes a lot Of
difference.
II is a cineh that Rowland will
send CicOrte hack to the slab in
Wednesday, game. He as enough
respect for the Giants to realize
that the only time he viii have
them beaten IS when they have
four games won on the field ac-
credited by the official scorers
and confirmed by Sam Crane.
In other words, the White SOx
are after that championship and
not any Of the coin or other per-
quiGites. They want tOdny'H
game. and Rowland will send
CieOtte out after IL.
You can figure that Cfcotte will
and lay your wagers in that basis. /
If you think that any pitcher Nc ]
GraW can select viii hold the White t
Sox TO fewer than that number Of
runs, three VIII get you five.
May Pitch Schupp Again.
Just which pitchers AIcGraW viii I
choose still remains a deep mystery. I
I think he ought TO select Ferdy .
Schupp If he expects TO win one out F.
OF 1lFe games, and that he should /
send Sallee back II he expects to lose :
four straight. Them are honest SEN
timents backed up by dope The dope !
is that Schupp either viii pitch a .
shut out game and beat Cicotte by a I
short score, or get the whey kicked 7
out OF him right off the reel
Sallee would hold White SOx
10 a low score and make the
Giants seem q respectable minor
fty report but against CiCoffe he
would be beaten. Nor does It
matter in baseball whether the
score IL two TO one OF ten TO one
ns far as final results are con-
cerued.
White Sox Confident.
