Jibes Of Chisox Fail
To Keep FerreII in
Wrong Groove
Rick Turns In Good Job
On Shutout After Big
Day of Bune|ing

BY Staff Correspondent of The Star.
ST. LOUIS, May 2.-Through the
catacombs of ComiSkey Park clicked
the spikes of Catcher Rick Ferrell
of the Mats, who slowly entered the
dark concrete funnel which leads
past the White Sox bench, across
the field and to the visitors dug
out.
Rick would have preferred to
take another route to the playing
field yesterday, perhaps, but there
was no alternative. There is only
one passage from the club house to
the field and Ferrell gulped, fidgeted
a bit and seemingly slowed his pace.
Wednesday Ferrell had caught a
night-marish game. He had dropped
a foul fly, failed to touch up at Sec
ond base after Pitcher Ken Chase
had popped out, and having Luke
Appling trapped between third and
the plate, foolishly elected to chase
him. He did and Appling arrived
safely back at third base.
Verbal Darts Sharpened.
1t may have been the worst game
the usually polished Ferrell ever
caught. He resembled some crude
catcher plucked from the EllipSe
and he knew it. Had he been a
rookie receiving in his first major
league game, he no doubt could have
grown a beard down to his knees
before obtaining another chance.
Rick realized ne must face the
musiC-the mouth music of such
razor -tongued needlers as Man
ager Jimmy Dykes and Coach Mule
Haas of the White Sox. He knew
they had prepared series OF Sar-
castle sentences to toss in his direc-
ton the second his head popped
from the mouth of the tunnel at the
end of the White Sox bench.
Well, heres Old Rubber Glove
Ferrell," sneered the first to spot
Rick. "Howya feeling today, Sprint
er? Better get your wheel chair next
time. Baldy. Old Folks Ferrell fin
iShes second in horse race. Creaky
Rick can't run lick"
Gets His Revenge.
And so it went In batting and
fielding practice, Rick was the tar
get of wit and half-wit. He respond
ed with the ime-tested silent treat
ment
Came the game and Ferrell un-
leashed one of his routine clever
catching jobs, handling the f1uttery
knuckler of Dutch Leonard flaw
lessly and reaping his revenge in
the form of playing prominent
role in blanking the Sox.
Ferrell, incidentally, isn't harming
his reputation as a strong spring
hitter. He is batting a comfortable
.345 and again has withstood the
challenges of AL Evans and Jake
