brought out was that Arizona building
materials are being used to a steadily
increasing extent in Arizona building.
One lumber firm reported that Arizona
native pine lumber now makes up 80
per cent of its interior finish business,
and it was generally felt that the use
Of Arizona lumber could be materially
increased if the northern lumber mills
went after the business more actively
and maintained close contact nCC only
with retailers, but with architects and
contractors.
Similarly, it was reported that the
greater part of the plaster used in
this locality now comes from Douglas,
where large gypsum plant has been
operating for number of years, and
that practically all of the hydrated
lime used here comes from the same
city Another interesting sidelight was
that common brick manufactured here
are the cheapest, considering size. in
the United States, with the exception
of two southern cities where labor
costs are abnormally low. Still another
was the interest displayed in the use
of Arizona tufa for building stone, in
cidental to the opening of new
tufa plant here, and another was the
interest displayed in Mexican hard
woods milled at NogaleS for high grade
interior finish, flooring and the like.

This series was regarded as the first
real test between the two leading
teams.
New York won three of the four
games. One of the Chicago defeats
was a heart-breaking affair, in which
the Yankees scored five runs in the
ninth to win. Losing ball games like
that takes a lot out of a ball club.
York, the White SOx have slipped
badly through a combination
slump in pitching and fielding.
INCREASE LEAD TO TEN GAMES
In the ten games that followed the
series with the Yankees, the Chicago
club was able to win two. During the
same period New York was winning
10 out of IL.
Thus, inside of two weeks the New
York club had increased it's lead OF
one game to 10 over it's closest rival.
Strange to say, it was Philadelphia
not Chicago, as the Sox had dropped
to third place as a result of it's un-
expected slump.
Never was the uncertainty of base
ball made more manifest than during
that short space of time, less than
two weeks elapsing while the leading
club jumped it's lead from one to ten
full games.
There have been few parallels
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-07-05
WHITE sOx GET GOOD PITCHING

The fine showing of the Chicago
White Sox under it's new manager,
Ray Schalk, was one of the refreshing
incidents of what so far has been
rather a dull race. No one figured
Chicago, yet for over two months the
Sox kept the race from becoming a
runaway affair for the Yankees.
That makes the late June slump
of Chicago all the more regrettable.
The club may come back to be a
strong contender in the stretch, but
it is apparent it will need super
pitching to turn the trick.
While it was cutting high jinks, the
White SoX were winning close-score
games by run or two, in which eX-
cellent pitching played a most promi-
nent part.
During the slump the pitching fail
ed in spots, but several Well-pitched
games were lost because of other
flaws in the play of Chicago.
#
The White SOx boast no punch
like the Yankees, who often give
their pitching staff q breathing
spell by piling up q commanding
lead early in the game.
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-07-05
MosTIEs BASE HITS MISSED

The White SoX have two young
stars in Lyons and Thomas, mighty
fine pitcher in Blankenship, who,
however, hasn't been able to win
consistently this year, a great old
veteran in Red Faber and fine re-
lief tWirler in Connally.
In many ways it looms up as one
of the best staffs in the majors, and
for that reason Chicago will continue
dangerous just so long as it gets good
pitching.
However it strikes me that it is
asking too much to hope that the
Sox staff will be able to continue the
super pitching of the first two
months, even after the present slump
is forgotten.
A stronger batting punch would dc
much to relieve the pitching strain
While the Sox have several batterS in
it's lineup, still there are spots where
more hitting could be used to de-
cided advantage. That is the chief
fault. Johnny Mostil's missing base
hits would be most helpful at this
time.
Good pitching made the Chi
cagO White SOx the early season
sensation of the American league.
IL must continue to get that grade
of twirIing to be a pennant con-
tender.

HuDLIN TOPS uHLE

Last fall, Cleveland showed a
youngster by the name of Willis
Hudlin, secured from Waco, Texas, in
his first year as professional. Hud-
liri impressed from the start, but no
one for a minute believed he would
outpitch the great George Uhle and
Cleveland'S two best southpawS, Joe
Shaute and Garland Buckeye.
That is just what has happened In
his first full year in the majors,
Hudlin has been a sensation. The
husky right-hander, despite the fact
that most of the batters are new, to
him, has won nine while losing only
three, most remarkable record.
Lefty" Stewart, with six victories
in his first IL starts, has been the
most effective twirler on the ST. Louis
Browns, even though this is his first
years as a regular, and on second
division club. Wiley Moore of the
New York Yankees boasts a similar
record, six victories.
The role that Moore has played
for New York is in way, even
more unusual than winning
berth on the regular pitching
staff.
MOORE STARS FOR YANKS
Making his debut in the majors,
Manager Higgins early assigned him
the task, of relief pitcher for the
Yankees.
When Moore is summoned to the
rubber it is usually with the bases
filled, good batter up, with victory
flinging on whether or not Moore
can keep the batSman from making
basehit. In winning six games and
saving perhaps as many more for the
YankS, Wiley Moore has been con-
stantly pitching himself out of holes,
dug by other members of the staff.
Another sensational performer has
been Al Thomas of Chicago with II
victories in Is games. While this is
his second year in the majors, it is
really his debut. Last year he did
little more than polish off the rough
spots.
Lefty Willis of the Athletics
given his first chance to start bal
game recently against Washington
came through with victory. Willis
so far has won three games and suf-
fered no defeats.
The National league hasn't beer
quite so fortunate in the development
of young stars. The first nine rank
ing pitchers in the older league are
veterans. Carmen Hill. number II
IN the list, while hardly a recruit
since he has had several chances
has won nine and lost four for Pitts
burgh,
Since perhaps dozen veteran
star pitchers in the American
league are on the decline, the
coming of these sensational young
performers will more than balance
their passing.
YANKEES BEST
The best pitching in the major!
plus a good defense made the Chi
cago White Sox strong pennant
rival during the first eight weeks o1
the American league race.
At the close of that time it was
within one game of the New Yorl
Yankees, when the two clubs met il
four-game series to determine tht
league leadership for the time being
To win pennant, club must b'
able to knock off it's strongest rivals
Douglas daily dispatch., 1927-07-05
LIKE STAR HURLERs

There is no more priced possession
in the majors than a star pitcher.
Baseball scouts get greater kick
out of digging up a. crack hurler than
a star at any other position.
In season that has been rather
disappointing on the whole in the
development of rookie stars, it is de-
cidedly unusual that most of the
outstanding recruits come under the
category. of pitchers.
In the spring despite his advanced
age and many years of service, Wash
ington banked on Walter Johnson to
be its pitching ace. A broken leg in
training kept Johnson out for the
first eight weeks and proved a severe
handicap to Manager Stanley Harris.
No one looked for a rookie
twirIer by the name of Horace
Lisenbee to carry the burden of
the Washington pitching staff,
yet such has been the case.
