can use, but CicOtte cannot win the
series alone. and in postseason events
Of the past the pitching has been the
determining factor.
Both Land Flags Easily.
Both White Sox and Giants have
shown themselves the best in their re-
spective leagues by indisputable mar
gins. They have won farther off than
any other pair of champions in recent
years. They are strong teams, but do
not compare with the old Cub machine
or with the Athletics and Red SoX OF
the first half of this decade in RELIABLE
ity.
"You could dope out those Cubs un-
der Chance and depend on every
man of them to come through
under fire. The same was
true of the Mack team which con-
quered the Cubs, and likewise it was
true of the Red Sox who displaced the
Athletics from the kingship Of the dia-
mond. 1t is not true Of either the
White SOX or Giants today.
1.-The Giants have the advantage in
experience because more of their reg
ulars have been in worlds series and
their manager is a veteran who has
been under fire for a quarter of CEN
fury, while Rowland is comparative
kid But the White Sox offset that by
the fact they have been under great
deal sitter pressure most Of the sea-
son than the New Workers. have and
by the fact that most Of the south
siders have had experience in playing
for money during the postseason SER
les in Chicago for the last six years
The difference is only in the size of
the pot. That may increase the skill
Of the Rowlands, Or it may unnerve
. them.
Back to Our Pitching Offs"
"If" Faber and Russell are right, so
as to bring the slab staff up to the
rest of the team, the White tSox have
good margin over the Giants in the
physical and mechanical end of the
game. Some of that is offset by the
superiority of the Giants in applying
their strength.

themselves on the bases. All season
long they have made it harder than
it ought to have been for them to
win games by their blunders in base
running. No championship team with
in our memory has shown poorer
Judgment on the whole than the White
Sox. That does not mean they have
not the ability to run away with a
game on the base lines. They have
the speed and the gameness to try
things and to finish them, but there
are several whose Judgment could be
a lot better.
In base running the Giants have
J shown themselves more foxy than dar
, ing, which is an unusual trait in a
McGraw machine. He used to school
his players to try to run their oppo
!, nents off their feet, with results tina,

~ u. ~ San born, sporting editor OF
the Chicago Tribune, gives this sur.
vey Of the Worlds Series which as
the contest starts is of special inter.
est:
boiling all the worlds series dope
down to the bone, it's a fifty-fifty
proposition in advance, but may look
like fifty to one affair in retrospect.
There are so many ifs of vital import
ance that the issue is shrouded with
uncertainties, which make it the
most hazardous series of the last de-
cade in the matter of representation.
This is reflected in the betting, Of
which there is less than in advance of
any recent baseball derby. The big
bettors, the gamblers who live by their
wits-are letting this worlds series
practically alone and what wagering
is done is largely matter of senti-
ment or local pride.
Nothing that happens should sur
prise the fans. The White Sox may
win the worlds pennant in four
straight games, the Giants may cop it
in four straight, or it may go the linn
it, plus extra innings.
Some Advantages for Sox.
by comparison of the individual
elements in the two championship
teams we have found the White Sox
have slight advantage in the out
field, because Felsch on past perform
ances exccls Kauff by margin wide
enough to offset the superiority of
Burns over Jackson. The other out
field position, which is the weakest
spot on both teams, is about an even
break.
"On the infield the White Sox again
have a sight advantage in the ad-
vance dope because Eddie Collins and
Gandil are enough better respectively
than Herzog and Holke to more than
offset Zimmerman's margin over Nc
Mullin on third and the tenuous shade
Fletcher has on Weaver at short.
"Eehind the plate the White SoX
have a decided advantage on one
man basis, but if Schalk is hurt the
Giants ought to be stronger in the
receiving department.

ROAD BUILDING
SOON TO BEGIN
Approach Of Spring and Good Wealth.
er Awaited Anxiously by Auth
orities-Some Work Done.

Lehore County road authorities are
eagerly awaiting good weather and
the approach of spring SO that work
can be continued with more regularity
upon the new road system adopted by
the Board of Supervisors. Some good
work was put in on dumps and fills
along the proposed routes during the
fall and early winter but the weather
for the past two months has been
such as to almost prohibit any work
being done.
Mr.. Eli Abbott, County Road En-
gineer, said this morning that every
thing is in readiness to continue the
work as soon as the weather will per-
nit and that the work already ac-
complished is sufficient to keep the
contractors busy when the actual road
building is begun.
Lefore County will have the best
system of roads Of any county in the
state when the present program Of
building is completed. The plan now
is to have the principal thoroughfares
each way through the county built of
some hard road material such as con-
crete Of asphalt, and the other roads,
which are 10 connect main thorough
fares to be built Of gravel. This plan
when completed will make all Of Le-
fore County's roads dry-roads and the
main lines of traffic practically ever
lasting,
The traffic on the trans-county
thoroughfares is so heavy that the
use o. gravel has proven out of the
question, the finer particles of the
gravel soon being worked loose and
blown off of the road leaving only
the rough rocky surface. On the
roads which are not used so extensive
ly the gravel will serve every purpose.
