CAN SOx REPEAT?
Comiskey's Wonderful Team Is
Practically Intact Now.
Few of Players Are Subject to
Army Service. 3,
BY JACK VEIOCK.

% y
New York, March 6.-Charley Com
iskey's worlds champion White Sox
will enter the 1918 pennant race prac-
tically intact
The team has not been hit as hard
by the draft for the National Army as
most of the regulars are married and
have dependents.
With such bright prospects for put
ting full strength in the field, the SoX
are bound TO loom up as hot pennant
contenders when the 1918 race gets
under way and at the present writ
ing their chances for repeating look
good.
The race for the American League
pennant last year was a neck-aDd-
neck battle down the stretch between
Chicago and Boston. ana wnen the
Red Sox lost a number of stars thru
enlistments. White Sox stock went up
by leaps and bounds. During the
Boston team. has rehabilitated his
club, and Commy's entry will nave
some warm competition from the d.
rection of Beantown.
The worlds champions will have
the same wonderful fielding strength
that marked their triumphal march
last year. Jackson, FelSch, John Col
Inns and Liebold are all married and
reasonably sure to return The same
applies to Gandi1, Eddie Collins, Buck
Mullen, the infielders-
Raymond Schalk, with Byrd Lynn
as second catcher, will be in the har-
ness again, and Comiskey has two
youngs. ers, Lees and Lake, as emer-
gency material. Lees is subject to the
| draft. In addition the Sox have a
number of recruit infielders and out
| fielders who will make the training
| trip to Mineral Wells.
The only place where the strength
| OF the Chicago entry appears uncer-
| tain is the pitching staff With the
exception of Red Faber, who was one
of the inainstays last season, all of
the SoX veterans are married. Cicotte.
Wolfgans, Williams, Russell, Benz
anG Danforth are practically sure to
be available. But should Rowland
lose Faper the Sox would receive a
| hard blow.
The phenomenal pitching feats OF
Cicotte last year practically won the
peTnane for Chicago. Can Cicotte re-
peat? And if not, can Benz, Russell
Danforth or Williams come forth in
sensati DIAL style? These are the
questions White Sox fans will be ask
inS themselves when the season opens
LampIng the Sox from every angle
has convinced the writer that they
will be in there fighting. Their
| chances of repeating in the American
league race. as they appear now, de-
pend largely on the slabmen.

PROTECTS SOLDIERS
New Law to Prevent Loss OF Prop
erty or Eviction of Families

Wa March 6.-tftv1nS
sweeping protection to Uncle Sans
f:shtinr men. the so-cailed soldiers
and sailors civil rights bill has been
approved by congress. President Will
sons signature is expected within
day or so.
Under the provisions of the bill
fighting men and their dependents are
protected against eviction for non
payment of rent, loss of life insurance
thru delayed premiums; the execution
of mortgage against their property;
loss of their homes on which part pay
ment has been made; loss OF property
/ thru ncn-f5ayment of taxes, or loss OF
a homestead thru absence or nom
payne :. of fees.
All this protection is given en- the
conditi 1ns that mans normal AFFINITY
, to meet his obligations has beer ma
ter,aIly effected by his military serv-
ice.
Overcame Many Objections.
The measure has been before con-
gress almost since the first of the
war. Difficulties of drafting 1t and
the protests of certain insurance,
building companies, loan companies
and similar interests, delayed it's pas
sage.
With the war risk insurance bill. it
is declared by administration leaders
to MAXI up the most liberal iegisla-
in history. Its final approval was by
unanimous vote.
It's most important features follow:
A lawsuit cannot be settled against
man who is unable to appear by rea-
son of Military service. Courts must
appoint attorneys for such defe1 dants.
$1,0O6 Fine for Evicting Family.
A lawsuit begun by a person who
| later enters military service may be
postponed until the man in service is
able to give it personal attention.
A soldiers wife or family cannot be
| evicted from any premises, rent for
which does not exceed $50 a month.
! The court may inquire into all such
cases and make such order as may
/ be just. An attempt to evict shall be
punishable by a $1,000 fine.
On homes being bought on INSTALL
ment payments the contract shall not
! be foreclosed for non-payment unless
court so decides after an investiga-
ton. The court may then order all
| payments to date refunded. The
court may stay proceedings altogether.
! Insurance Policies Maintained.
| Insurance is defined to include ben
, efits from fraternal or benefit socie-
ties as well as commercial life insur-
ance- Nom payments due to military
service shall not invalidate the policy
war.
Non-payment of taxes cannot result
in the sale of a fighters property.
! This includes assessments and levies
of every sort for either national, state
4 or local governments.
Prohibits Foreclosure
Mine claims, timber claims and
| farm claims all are guarded against
foreclosure by the government either
/ for failure to perform work, absence
non payment of fees, or failure to
make improvements.
| General provisions are made thai
! courts may enter such judgments in
all cases as may be equitable" both
! to the debtor and creditor. Making OF
reasonable arrangements instead OF
| enforcing the absolute provisions OF
| the act against either party to suits
under the bill is discouraged.
