Tom Gibbons and Gene Tunney

The early betting indicated that
the st. Paul veteran would be

Of his experience. This is offset,
however, by Tunney's compare

and in the full flush Of his pugilis-
tie prime. Gibbons is thirty-six.
When Tom and Gene entered
training for their important clash
at the Polo Grounds tonight, Tun-
ney's qualifications as q full

major league manager, leading the
Chicago White Sox into towns The
White Sox are playing better
baseball this season than they. did
at any time . year ago. Most ex-
perts credit Collins with the
change in the team. At the same
time, those same experts do not
say that the White Sox are likely
to win the pennant. There are
deep reasons why the White Sox
will be doing well to finish in the
first division.
After the White Sox will come
the Detroit Tigers, and on June IL
Judge Kenesaw Mountain Lands,
baseball commissioner, will raise
the world championship banner to

flagstaff in the Capital.
Then will come the Browns and
the Indians, each playing four
games here against the Griffmen.
The New York Yankees have three
games to play here, ending on

Following two days in Philadel-
phia, the Griffs will again be at
home for three days, tackling the
AS, before heading away. It is
during this long home stay that
Bucky Harris expects to get his ma
chine running even more smoothly

enough to keep Washington well
