CICOTTE
is SoxAN HOPE
Shine Ball Artist Must Stand
Blunt of Burden in
Coming Series.

Eddie Cicotte is the Soxan Hope.
Upon his broad shoulders and in
the cunning of his pitching arm
rests the burden of victory over
the Reds in the impending world
series between Chicago and Cincin-
natl
OF course, Gleason has Williams
and Kerr and a fine fielding and
batting aggregation, but Cicotte,
like Mathcwson in 1905, is the
hope" of the world series. Matty
made good for the Giants by trim
ming the Athletics with shut-outs
every time he started. Gleason
" '"sn't expect that much. quite. Of
Cicotte, but he does expect him to
WIN.
Cicotte. since the series has been
extended to pine games, may be
called upon to- win three out of FIVE
victories for the Sox. The remain
ing two will probably be assigned
to Williams and Kerr.
If the Reds beat Cicotte on Ed
dies first start there will be no
holding the Reds enthusiasm IN
check On the other hand, should
Cicotte vanquish the Moranmen. it
will strengthen the SoXan belief
that they have the mightiest pitch
er of the series and that he will
win every time he faces the Reds.
Cicotte faces the same Herculean
task that Matty did for the Giants
in 1905. Matty was the Giant hope
against Bender and Waddell. Plank
and Coombs. Cicotte is the Soxan
hope against Eller. Sallee. Ring,
Reuther. and Fisher.

BURNS is KAYOED
BY JOHNNY KILBANE

Jersey City. Sept I6.-Johnny Kill
Oane defended his claim to the feath-
er-weight title by knocking out
frankie Burns in the fifth round to-
night at the Jersey City baseball
grounds.
Burns was 1oored for the full count
just after the fifth period got under
way. A short right sent Frankie to
his knees and as he attempted to get
up he keeled over backwards. He tried
again to get up before the count was
ended, but Kilbane, turning TO the ref
cree, said: He'll get hurt: he'll get
hurt and the referee taking the cue,
put his arms around Burns and de-
clared the fight ended Burns was
still in daze when he was led from
the ring
Kilbane entered the ring weighing
Us and Burns 124. The Cleveland bov
seemed to be rather pudgy, but
showed no loss of speed or general
ship, Burns appeared to be trained
TO the minute but lacked the speed
and staying powers. Of the champion
