a big winner.
Sam jones. who tumbled the
AS spectacularly yesterday, has
played no favorites with the
league leaders this season. HaV-
ing won IA times, he has upset
both Philadelphia and New YORK
on three occasions-Cleveland has
twice bowed to the sad one while
the poisonous st. Louis Browns;
Detroit Tigers and Boston Reo
Sox have acknowledged a ike
number of reversals.
The Chicago White Sox alone
have failed to be lowered by
Jones. Which is largely because

shown against them but once.
When Jones won his fourteenth
start Yesterday, 3 to 2, he worked
under big handicap. In the
