Sox Demonstrate
They're Far from
Joke of League
With Pitching, Chicago Amer
lean League Club One to
Be Feared.
- BILIY EVANs.

GIVE the White Sox good pitch
ing, and they are anything but the
joke club a lot of the experts are
trying to paint IT.
ANY time Red F'aber pitches and
Is in form, no club in the American
league has any license to beat Us.
If 1 am fortunate enough to have
a couple OF my younger pitchers
come through for me. they are go
ing 10 have a hard time keeping US
out OF the first division"
That, in substance, Is what Man
ager Kid Gleason Of the Chicago
club said to me after the first week
OF play in April.
At that time Chicago was gener-
ally picked 10 finish in the second
division. Most OF the baseball ex-
perts believed the White Sox would
be as low as seventh.
With the season two-thirds over,
they are now in the first division
and within hating distance of first
place.
Manager Gleason had the real
dope in the spring. The White Sox
have proved they are far from the
joke club that the experts agreed
on.
Gleason's fondest hopes have been
realized. Three young pitchers have
come through for h1m-Roberrson
Leverette and Blankenship.
It is a remarkable thing for a
major league club to have one Of
It's recruits develop into a regular in
the first season out. For three re-
cruits to come through extraordina-
~.
The showing of Robertson. Lever
cite and Blankenship reflects great
credit on Manager Gleason and
Catcher Ray Scha-ik. The superb
handling the youngsters have re-
ceived from Schalk has had much to
do with their great work
Now that the season IS two-thiris
over and the teams have entered
into the home stretch. what does
Gleason say?
Regardless of where the White
Sox finish, the club has proved that
it is far from a joke aggregation.
If we can hang onto the lead rs
and stay within three or four
games from the lead until the first
Of September, the Sox are going to
make things interesting.
'Unquestionably they have a
chance to win the pennaIt - a
mighty good one.
My young pitchers have come
through for me; the rest of the club
is playing bang-up baseball
My veterans. Schalk, Faber, Col
Inns and Hooper. will go even better
IN the final stages of the race, with
a pennant in sight"
There you have Manager Glea-
sons latest prediction, and the Kid
isn't inclined 10 do much talking.
PROFESSIONALLY the remarkabl..
showing Of the White Sex reflects
much credit on his managerial abiIi-
