CHICK GANDlL A WHITE SOCK
JACK NESS HOLDS OUT
BY Mark Shields

WA n @iilCiAS
Chick GandiI has been sold to the
White Sox by Cleveland in a straight
cash deal, according to announce
ment today, but that does not mate
rally change the first base situation.
Gandn has been having trouble with
his legs for two or three years, which
is the reason Washington disposed Of
him. In Cleveland he did some good
hitting for a few months, but was
wOefully slow, both in his move
ments around first base and his time
between the bases.
Jack Ness, branded by some en-
thusiasts last season the best first
baseman in the American league, is
holding out and says he will not take
a cut in salary from the White Sox.
Jack wasn't the best first baseman
in the league by several parasangs,
but he was a fair workman and the
best the SOx had. He was a hero
then, but he doesn't look so good
now, when an effort is being made
to lOp his salary.
Ness IS going 10 work TOR mer-
camille firm, he says, and play semi
pro ball, which will bring him almost
as much as he could earn with the
SOx. In 1916, it is said, he was paid
$4,000, and now he is offered $500
less for the coming season.
This in face of the fact that Jack
Fournier's salary is reputed to be in
the neighborhood of $1,000, contract
he secured when the Federal league
bugaboo was menacing the mag
mates and their pay chests. Fourier
is not a first baseman and he isn't
an outfelder, but he gets the money.
Ness is the best first baseman the
Sox could dig up last year, though
he was not over strong in the field.
He did his best and hit fourth among
re Sox athletes, following Jackson,
Collins and Felsch. He batted

John Collins and Buck Weaver.
Gandil has experience, he knows
how the position should be played,
but he lacks the agility necessary to
carry out his ideas. In 1916 GandiI
fielded 1896 and hit for .259. Ness 4
f1elded 1919 and hit .267.
There is a wide markin on defense
in favor of Gandil. But remember
that Chick does not get close to
many chances that a faster man
might touch. He will not make so
many errors for that reason. Ness,
with all his slowness, should be a
bit faster on his pins than Gandil.
And McMuIIin is faster than either.
Some hope is placed in Jourdan,
the Western league rookie. But there
is a ray Of sunshine in the tenden-
Cy to make a first baseman Of Fred
McMuIlin. We have been talking
that for several months, first adj
vancing the idea last summer when
the first base problem was wreck
ing the championship chances of the
club. The bunch was ridicuIed, but
now Manager Rowland is coming
around and may give it a whirl.
McMuIIin is a hitter and a natural
ballplayer. He has ability to make
good at any infield position. He has
gray matter and would add one
more thinking role to the club. Men
with brains are not over plentiful
and one made can always be used.
But if this chance is not to be
taken with McMuIlin, $500 should
not stand in the way of signing Ness.
Two squads Of Cubs played a
game at Pasadena, Jim Sheckard's
seconds winning. Phil Douglass
pitched for the seconds and did a
good job. That pitcher belongs in
the big league, and if he behaves
himself there is no doubt he will
stick. In the past he has had every
thing but control of his arm after the
game was over. Proper respect for

STREET ASSESSMENTS
UP TO COMMITTEE
South High and South Twelfth
Streets Cause of Dis
satisfaction

At the last meeting of the city eoun
ell there was referred to a special com
mittee consisting of Aldermen Unruh,
Buckner, and Wilson, the preliminary
assessments for the Improvement of
south High street from the south line
of Mill to the south line Of Bush streets
and assessments for the improvement of
south Twelfth street from the south
line Of Mission to the city limits, to-
gether with the objections filed by Ju-
liet and Montague Lord and D. Cole.
The matter of these assessments was
referred to this committee for the pur-
pose of giving the objectors a hearing.
AT the Rearing they will be permitted
and given the privilege to point out
their reasons in detarr why the re-as-
sessment should not be made.
Tho jurisdiction Of the council has
been questioned as well as the claim
that the assessments as levied were not
uniform and not in proportion to other
assessments of property receiving like
benefit.
1t is also claimed that the work on
south High street has not been laid in
accordance with the plans and specifi7
cations.
In regard to south Twelfth street the
objectors claim that remonstrance suf-
ficient to defeat the improvement was
filed with the council within the time
required by law. In the suit brought by
Mr.. Albert against the city, the Court
decided that the remonstrance was am
pie to defeat the improvement.
The committee after hearing the OBJ
iections will report to the council their
findings as to whether or not the OBJ
ections are well taken. The committee I
las set no time for the hearing, await
ng communication from the repre-
of Juliet and Montague Lord.
j. H. Albert in his objections to the
e-assessment writes the mayor and
ity council, in part: 81 will resist any
nd all attempts on the part of the city
f Salem to incumber my property ad-
AGENT thereto by the placing of a lien
hereon covering any portion of the
est of such Improvement. /"
Juliet and Montague Lord write the
ouncil they have never refused to pay
just proportion of the cost of improve
tent, considering the character of the
'ork done. They write they are willing
} compromise but not to pay an assess
ent which they consider cOnfiscation
property. They claim the assessment
'r Improvement is in excess of the as
,ssed value of the property, as well as
excess of the cash value.
