Daubert up Ruether had splendid
chance to score on q wild pitch. but

on that sack with his eight-run lead
and save his strength for pitching.
Da ebert then was hit by a pitched ball
and ,Lowdermilk filled the bases by
passing Groh. He escaped further
damage when Roush forced Groh.
The White sox looked bad against
the Reds yesterday-looked much
worse than they are--but a team al
ways does show to disadvantage when
1t gets poor pitching. Gleason very
sagely refused to waste any Of his
first-string mound talent when his

Kopf. the shortstop. displayed his old

touted as the star outfielder of John
