In the early weeks of the cam
paign neither John~on nor HadIey
was available, the bulk Of the start
ing falling upon Thurston and
Lisenbee. They did well, winning
more games than they lost. Further
more, they usually finished what
ever they started.
When the Griffmen returned home
late in June and were running up
their streak of 10 victories, both
Thurston and Lisenbee began to
crack under the strain. Neither
has finished what he started since
late in June. There is no telling
when they will return to the form
they showed in May and early June,

Hadley'S hurting against the
White SOx was marked by excel

wicked curve that broke sharply
down across the plate. Four Of

In the first eight innings Hadley

and Ward hitting safely in the
fourth and a pass to Kamm filling
the bases. The young Washington
pitcher refused to become excited
and when Grouse raised a low fly
to short center Speaker was under
It in a fifty for the final out.
In the ninth the Sox finally sue
ceeded in scoring. Clancy led off
with a single to center, reached
third on Falk's double to right and
came in as Harris was tossing out
McCurdy, a pinch hitter.
Six hits and two walks were

It's all because of what / read
in the papers about Sharkey will
beat Dempsey because he has the
edge on age" responded Leo Pre-
text. IF a guy hasn't excuse to
laugh himself to death over that
well, gimme something to die
over.
''Ain't this the same Sharkey
that couldn't floor an old timer
like Wills-who is about IL years
older than Dempsey and about Is
years older than Sharkey? Amt
it the same Sharkey guy that
is seven years older than Demp-
sey--and about Is older than Shar-
key?
''They call this guy Sharkey
fast, Ell? And they call him
that at the same time that
they're telling that he wasn't
fast enough to catch up with
Wills, not fast enough to nail
McTigue. Wow,
when I turn this young man,
Jack Dempsey loose at Sharkey,
all the experts who have been
shopping around here for a couple
of weeks and saying that Shar-
key is faster than Dempsey, will
promptly connect with the idea
that they have been crosseyed.
They've said Dempsey has slowed;
well. maybe he has. But when he
goes against Sharkey he'll look
like Charlie Paddock.
How do / think this little outing
for Jack will end? Well. certainly
inside of five rounds. With Sharkey
on the floor. it may end in the
first. 1t all depends upon how
fast q bicycle Sharkey can grab
after Jack hooks couple into his
trick liver.
