Evening star., 1922-09-24

In the seventh the Milanesesput an
other marker on the score board, La
motto hanging it up on Harris single
to center.
Walter faced a heavy lombard
ment in the fifth. with the result that
Kid Gleason's light weights warmed
the plate in relay fashion, netting
five runs at that juncture. johnny
Mostil. who had much to do with the
defeat Of the Nationals in the Friday
game by polling home run into the
lett field pavilion. repeated the trick
today with Sheely on second after .
terrlbc double that well-nigh upset
the honorable Sam Rice.
Great Year for schaIk,
Schalk slammed the ball to the end
of the left field foul line in the fatal
seventh and Collins sprinkAed a sin
gle on the pastime for good measure.
This same Schalk person. who is hay-
ing his best year at the stick since.
he came into the American League
Twelve years ago and hung up his hat
for keeps in Charlie .Comiskey's tent.
was the demon slugger of the Erva.
kansan'S most recent mound defeat
The Sox catcher batted for 1000 nick
ing Walter for three singles and It
two-ply swat. There are those who
have said Schalk is slipping. but i
his work this season is an indication
of going back it will be intercstin-
to watch this same small bundle OF
nerves and hustle performing five
years hence.
A recapitulation of the swatting IN
today's haif-holiday matinee. SO far
as the Sox are concerned, shows q
total of twenty-siN bases made off
fifteen hits. The Nationals obtained
| nine wallops for ten sacks as Lev
erette sawed wood.
Has CuriOu. Occupation.
The Sox pitcher probably has one -
the most curious occupations in bass
ball in the winter time. He is de-
tective out of the Gary bureau for
the government and spends the Off
months hunting for bootleggerS AMI
stills. He is a graduate of the Uni
versity of Arkansas. a foot ball play
er of parts and an all-round athlete.
Early this season he was out of shape
and unable to win because of bound
shoulder muscles, but he has devel-
oped into the most promising recruit
Comiskey owns, today's being his
thirteenth achievement
The Nationals will help the SoX
close the American League season in
Chicago tomorrow. after which the
Mats will depart eastward and the
Sox tinker around with several eX-
hibitions.
When Harry Hooper went to bat
in the first inning, Walter johnson
turned around and motioned Gosbn
and Rice to move over toward right
field. knowing the SoX slugger's rcpu-
tation as dead right garden hitter.
then Hooper doubled to left center
and scored on Collins single.
The White Sox VIII have little
worlds series all their own. be
ginning probably on the same day as
the New York classic. The Cubs have
challenged the SoN to play for the
championship of Chicago.
Roger. the Peck. pulled a double
play all by his lonesome in the third.
Hooper was on Second and Ernie
johnson lined to Peck. who made a
two-ply killing. Peck retired the
side when he tossed out Collins. Quite
a Peckinpaugh frame. one would say.
Ernie Johnson was guilty of
mental lapse in the third when Judge
scored. Ernie could have nailed 10"
by ten feet had he chosen to throw
to the plate. but he tossed out Cos
lin instead.
Walter Johnson brought his suit
case to the park. ready to depart for
Washington if he won the game. He
didn't win. so he STAYED with the
club.
Walter surS got his bumps in the
fifth. Sheely's and Schalk's doubles
were nifty enough for the Sox, but
NostifSs homer over the left field
wall bowed the great slab stars head
Hooper contrived a single in the
same frame.
The SoN literally played their heads
off. Hooper made world-series
catch when he went to the right
field bleachers and pulled down Cos
Inns liner. which was ticketed for a
home run.
