ONE SHINING EXCEPTION.

There is one shining exception in
the person of Dixie Carroll, Chick CEN
ter fielder. Throughout the year,
whether the Tribe be winning or losing,
he has been out there hustling. He
is an ambitious ball player, anxious to
succeed in the national agame. He is
confidently counting on getting another
major league Trial next spring.
Dixie will be the only member of
the present array of Chicks who goes
higher. He is the only one who de-
serves it.
There are one or two members of
the, Chicks who have. 1t in for. Carroll,
and who says he is an individual ball
player. If he is, it would be a Godsend
to the Tribe to have few more indi-
vidual ball players. They are merely
jealous of Carroll because he is popu-
lar with the fans and because he out

causes.
one of the biggest reasons why the
Tribe has been Sliding and Shining IL
the poor brand of pitching the team
has had. The club usually bags a
gang Of runs, which is borne out by the
TACT that they have scored more than
any other club in the league but the
Memphis pitchers have been unable
to hold the opposition in check.
Memphis fans have right to be
sore at the Chicks. The club appar-.
entity has given up the ghost and has
decided that there's no more use in
going out and hustling.
