Faith to Three NeyO

On Youngsters Work May
Depend Success of 1921
SOx Team.
BY MALCOLM MAGICIAN.

CHICAGO. March 2J--N nat Is lhe
White Sox outlook for 1921?
It's none too encouraging, but II three
likely looking recruits from Salt Lake
CITY deliver the the Sox have fair
chance to climb upward.
Earl Shelley, Coast batting slugger,
who hit 81 last year, is the first base
prospect. Ernie Johnston. former Hose,
who managed the MOrmOns and hit .33S,
is the third base possibility, and Multi
gan, an ex-Cub, who hit .229, is the short
stop chance. If they can make good. and
they have played exceptionally well to-
gether, the SOx will be well fortified in
the infeld.
Since the trade with the Red Sox. the
outtieId will be built of Harry Hooper,
Amos Strunk and Eddie Murphy, rather
fair.
Ray Schalk again will be the power
behind the bat, and for pitchers there
son and Hodge OF last years team.
Manager Gleason looks for a lot from
Hodge. the stringbean right handler, and
Wilkinson showed enough last year to
make him an excellent prospect.
The SOx have gathered in a whole raft
of youngsters from colleges and else
where, but right now it looks as If the
Johnston or Mulligan fall down, Nc
Clellan is fast enough to hold down
either short or third.
So ii sums up something like this: II
the three new fnhelders from Salt Lake
City come through and Gleason can pick
up a likely pitcher or two from the grist
of youngsters, the Sox have a fair chance
to land in the first division this season.
But It is likely to take years before
the team can show the strength of that
outfit which won notable triumphs for
Chicago In recent seasons.

DEAN, INDIANA
STAR, TO SIGN
WITH MACKMEN
Announces Intention to Play
With Mackmen at Close
of School Year.
IS SECOND BASEMAN
BY CHARLIE LOGAN.

Everett Dean star baseball and basket
ball player Of Indiana University, will
sign a contract at the end OF the present
school year to play with the Philadelphia
Athletics. This announcement was made
today by Dean himself.
1t has been rumOred on the Indiana
campus since early in the school year
that Dean would go into professional
baseball when he left school. but nothing
definite was Termed until the star came
through with the information himself this
morning. Representatives of the Phila-
delphia team visited Dean at Indiana
some time ago and made an effort to Sc
cure his signature on contract at that
time, but he chose TO finish his school
course. Dean is a senior and his home
is at Bloomington.
Dean has made quite a reputation as
an athlete since entering school. base
bail and basketball being his specialties,
although he has tried his hand at prac-
tically every branch of sport
In baseball he is a second bRseman.
this being his third season at that pO-
sttlOn with the Crimson nine. He is q
big, powerful athlete, but exceptionally
fast on his feet and is said 10 be one
of the most clever infielders that has de-
velOped in an Indiana college for some
time. Besides being a crack fielder, he
has been one Of the batting mainstays
OF the Crimson team, and is the fastest
man on the bases they have ever had.
Dean has shown wonderful improve
ment as & baseballer since entering In
diana and his friends and supporters of
the Crimson team are predicting that he
viii be the sensation of the game in
HoOsierdOm this coming season.
In basketball last season, Dean. who
eaptained the team, proved himself one
Of the greatest players in the United
States. He was the unanimous choice for
all-State center, and the majority of crit
les picked him as the ideal pivot man for
the al-COnference team. Besides being
a great jumper, Dean was a wonderful
pivot man. and he was always in there
to balance his team when things were
breaking tough for them He was deadly
accurate from the foul line, and won
more than one game for the Bloomington
6asketeers by his ability to hit the ring
from the free range. His agility en-
abled him to get over the court like
fash, and the burden of Indiana's work
automatically fell on his shoulders in the
big game.
Dean would not say today just what
financial offer the Athletics had made
him, but it is understood that he is to
receive one of the largest sums ever paid
a yOungster just breaking into the big
show. This rumOr is founded on the fact
that he has been braced by several other
teams that could not hand down his
price.
In 1917 Dean played second base for the
Belmont Athletic Club team Of Indian
apOlis.

STARS
RAISE HOPES OF
BIG LEAGUERS
Spring Training Brings Up
Many Regulars From
Bumper Rookie Crop.
RAPP CAPTURES BERTH

NEW YORK, March 25.-several am
bilious young men capering about in
Dixieland today in the livery Of major
league teams have won their spurs and
bid fair to twinkle on big time.
The 1921 crop Of rockies taken to
southland was unusually large and In
neId1ng recruits. were more numerous
than ever before. Happily for the lucky
managers, no less than half a dozen of
these youngsters have made good, and
several others give promise Of turning
out to be stars of the first magnitude
The Yankees and Giants were among
the lucky teams, as both will bloom out
in April with new faces on their in
fields. The Yanks appear to have landed
corking player in Johnny Mitchell, who
came up from Vernon and cost Colonies
Rupert and Huston much in cash and
players. Mitchell Is a probable 270
hitter in the American League, and can
field and throw like demon.
"GOLDIE' WORTH
HIS PRICE.
the Giants, is a player Of sterling cal
her, has already made good, so Me-
Graw doesn't regret that he had to hand
over pretty penny to st. Paul for
"Goldie," who was one of the stars Of
the American Association last season
Other young infielders who seem sure
to stick are Sam Bohne, from Seattle,
who is now third basing for Pat Moran's
Cincinnati Reds: Bill Gleason from Chat
tanoOga, who looks good to succeed Joe
Gedeon as second baseman of the ST
Louis Browns, and George Torporcer,
Brooklyn, and Lotter, who Is keystone
sacking for the Cardinals.
Strange as it may seem both Cubs and
White Sox will come out with revamped
infields and both will have new first base
men. Right now it appears that Earl
Shelley from Salt Lake has the first base
job for the White Sox in his hip, pocket,

JOhnny's Chief Joy
in Life Is Getting
the Champs Money
NOJU They're Got Him in the
Grease for FOHLing Irish
Mike.

NEW YORK, March 25.-Since Johnny
Wilson came out of nowhere up in Bos-
ton one night about year ago he has
been more or less in print continually.
He hasn't a swelled head, because the
things being said about him aren't the
kind that produce vanity.
Johnny won the middleweight title
from Mike O'Dowd that night in Boston
because he had a chummy referee. twas
said.
Then Johnny discovered a sore nose
and wouldn't give O'Dowd a return bout
with a neutral referee, twas said.
Then Johnny gave O'Dowd a return
bout and won by fOuling the challenger,
tits said.
O'Dowd is in the hospital, recovering
from an operation for hernia. Paddy
Mullins and the Irish colony show a
physicians certificate that Mixes dis
ability was caused by low blows from
the champion. Wilson and the Italian
colony produce signed articles from an
other physician claiming that blows
above the belt can cause a hernia
Some scribes who were on the wrong
end of the picking claim that the boxing
commission should reverse the decision
and suspend the referee and the Judge
who gave the champion the decision.
Then there are other things said about
the champion.
Sam Lagonia, the amateur middleweight
Champion, got away from the frehouse
where be works long enough to see the
recent championship affair, and he went
back TO work with the idea that he will
not have to ride hooks and ladders very
much longer
He says he can whip either one of
them and he's going to start training
after the next championship tournament.
Then there's Mike Gibbons the "phan-
TOM" who has been teaching boxing by
mail for a year.
The elder Gibbons claims that the mid
dleweight class, which used to be so fine
that he couldn't be a champion, has
come to a sad state of affairs when such
n person as Wilson can wear the crown.
He hurls a challenge at the Italian and
the Italian comes back:
My hand is hurt. AS soon as it gets
we'll"
