Chance for Pennant
White Sox Shut Out Cham
pion Indians in Opener
of Final Series, S to 0

CHICAGO, Sept. 29.-With Little

the White Sox virtually ruined C!eve-
lands chances in the American League
pennant race to-day when he shut out
the worlds champions, to 0, in the
first game of the final four-game Sc
ries.
Kerr celebrated a day set aside in
his honor by holding the Indians to
six hits, and with the aid Of sensa-
tional fielding did not allow q Cleve-
land player to pass second. The Cleve
landers threatened in the fourth, but
Kerr started a double play which shat
tered their hopes.
After the Sox scored two runs in the
first, Cleveland played listless game.
Johnson led off with single and took
second on Strunk's out. After Col
lins had flied to Evans. Hooper drove
single to center, scoring Johnson,
Hooper taking second on the throw to
the plate. Shelly followed with an
other single over second, scoring
Hooper.
With runne.s m first ard second in
the second inning, and two out, Man
ager Speaker sent Stephenson to bat
for Pitcher Sothoron. Ray Caldwell
assumed the pitching burden in the
second, and Jared well until the sixth,
when, after two were out, Chicago
scored another run. Mostil singled to
left, and Mulligan followed with a hit
to the same place. Mostil raced home
when Evans booted the ball
The Sox scored another run in the
seventh after two were out. In the
eighth Mulligan grounded to Caldwell
who threw wide to Burns, permitting
Mulligan to reach second. Schalk's
triple scored him.
