An entire new outfleld, one infielder,
new catching staff and new pitchers,
have been welded into a machine for
midable to other c~ontenders.
Miller Higgins is not a boaster-
He's not even an optimist. He isn't
claiming the penant. He's only
claiming a team hat will fight to the
finish for the flag. And he admits
there weak spots in his team, re-
fusing however, to point them out at
this stage of the game from saying
his team "is not versatile"
It's easier to talk to Miller about
the other contenders in the league.
F,o instance he declares the White
Sox aggregation is "a wonderful
team" despite the fact Kid Gleason
is winning on three pitchers.
THE team that beats Chicago wins
the pennant" he said. Its the same
| aggregation to a man hat won the
J worlds series in 1917. Same man
agement. too. one might say, for
there is Kid Gleason on the bench

The rest is an old story. Shorten

Many other ball players with bat
ting marks almost as big as Flag
stead's have come from the minors
and failed In the majors where they
found the pitching too good. Ira may
also fail for the anne reason,
but there seems little chance. He
has faced the best pitching in the

VETERANS TELL SOME .
REAL LIVE STORIES
How Kid Gleason Used to Be Cut
Up With Spikes. :
Davy Jones, Then With Chicago Cubs
Tried to Put Peppery Manager Of
Chicago White Sox Out Of
Business, but Failed.

There was some great tanning at the
baseball meetings in New York. One
bunch of yarn spinners were talking
about how Kid Gleason used to be cut
up with the spikes of base runner be-
cause he refused to give any ground
to them at second base and the Kid
was an interested listener to his own
Obituaries"
Eyes," he put in, sometimes they did
slash me up, and sometimes they
didn't. I remember once when Davy
Jones was with the Cubs. Early In
the game he tried to steal and / tagged
him pretty roughly. He warned me
that the next time he got on he was
coming down and was going to cut
me down. Sure enough he got on
again, but as we had the Cubs beaten,
8 to L, I tipped King off to make a
high throw. Down came Davy with
one leg swinging high SO as to spike
me. OF course, I paid no attention to
the ball, which went to center field.
! All I did was to grab that leg, give Ii
a twist and cause Davy to pillow up
the infeld with his face. When Davy
finally escaped there was no skin left
on his nose, and what made him even
madden was that the ball was thrown
back to me In time to put him out
before he got back on the bag"
'sThat reminds me of a game" re.
marked Johnny Evers, sin which, with
Slagle on third and Schultz on first
and only n out, Schultz was told to
go into second standing up II the ball
was hit on the ground, Chance moi
wanting a double play to prevent
Slagle from scoring. Schultz, OF
course, obeyed orders. and when the
shortstop, after taking the toss from
the second baseman. went to wheel the
ball to first he hit Schultz between the
eyes.
"Down went Schultz as II hit will
d hammer. He was up in less than {
minute. and turning toward the grand
stand. yelled majestically: They toll
me to stand up and then they knocl
me down.
"And the worst of 1t was that Slagl,
forgot all about scoring. but when h,
was half way home he cut across t
second to see If Schultz was hurt"
