THE business of analyzing the
Chicago White Sox is one Of the
most popular sports of the current
season. And it isn't limited to base
ball fans-many experts are busy ex-
planning the James ]. Dykes method.
During the early part of each sea-
son the dopesters announce their
findings. During the past few years
the Yankees have been heavy IA
vorites to win the American league
pennant. Contenders generally in
cluded Cleveland, Boston and De-
troit. The four remaining clubs Of
the league weren't mentioned in the
same breath.
But the White Sox, running true
to form, refused to give up without
struggle. They refused to become
alarmed about the situation. And
somehow the White Sox managed to
beat at least one Of the four favor
ties Of the league in the last i've
years. Even more important, they
have wound up In the second divi-
sion only twice since Manager Dykes
took command Of the club six years
ago. And when he took over the

Farmer Wills Money to Expand Courtesy Club Idea

ST. LOUIS, MO.-A flippant an

village in Missouri, back in 1887,
and from this beginning by hum
BILE farmer, Courtesy Clubs have
sprung up in many localities in the

spread to every state in the Union.
The farmer who observed this inn

was A. Harry Orr, 65, of near Mt.

he could do to make the boys and
girls of his town more courteous, he
arrived at the idea of courtesy
contest for rural boys and girls. He
talked it over with others and ar
rangements were made to hold
contest for all between the ages of
10 and Is. No one could enter and
no one could keep out of the con-
test, as prizes of $40 each for the
boy and the girl were for q whole

years supply and not for just one
outstanding act of courtesy.
Soon there was noticeable pick
up in politeness. More politeness
on the sidewalks, in schoolyards, on
party telephones, more politeness
everywhere. 1t began to filter up
from the boys and girls. Older peo-
pie began to take pride in being
nice" to each other.
The contest was SO successful that

SOx were not Unfamiliar with last
place In the second division.
Dykes has put his club in its pres
ent place without any spending
splurge.
He has taken players that other
clubs didn't want and fashioned to-
gether . smart, hard-working and
winning combination.
No Big Names
The Sox have no consistently long
hitter like Joe DiMaggio, Rudy York
or Ted Williams. Running through
the lineup you see the names Of
fresh, Kuhel, Knickerbocker, APP
pling, Lodigiani, Wright, Solters and
Hoag. Appling, the 36-year-old short
stop, is the lone standout. The rest
are good ballplayers-at least for
Jimmy Dykes.
How are they staying at or near
the top?
Two big reasons for the Sox' con-
sistent showing don't get the pub
licity they deserve. One is Manager
Dykes himself, the other is Dykes
first lieutenant, Coach Muddy Ruel.
Dykes is q fighter - = sizzling
scrapper with \ never-give-up spir-
it. He manages to impart that spirit
to his players. Every player ON his
team is a hustler.
Hustler though he is, Dykes has
infinite patience with his men. He
will let pitcher stay on the mound,
however rough the route, until every
chance of his regaining command of
the situation is gone. 1t doesn't take
a pitcher long to learn that quick
help isn't forthcoming and that he
will be given every chance. That
means that the Sox hurlerS can keep
their minds on immediate business
not on a possible relief pitcher.
Not far from last place in club
batting, the Sox must rely on their
pitchers to win games. In their first
Sc games the Sox pounded out Isl
runs. They made 3l3 hits and the
team earned batting average Of
.262. So far the Dykes method has
proved extremely successful. His
pitchers have saved the day.
Back to the second reason for the
Sox' place in the baseball sun-Mud-
dy Ruel. Along with Dykes he de-
serves much of the credit for a pitch
ing staff which did start-to-finish
jobs in ~ of the clubs first SO
games.
The scholarly, pipe-smoking Ruel
can be found at just about any time
jawing with the Sox pitchers, ana
lying their weaknesses and their
strong points. He knows the opposi-
ton and knows what strategy should
be employed. He Is ono Of the
shrewdest operators In the game
and b invaluable to his boss.
Whether or not the Sox will come
close to the 1871 pennant depends
on any number of things-including
seven other American league teams.
But II they do-and stranger things
have happened = Manager Jimmy
Dykes will deserve all the credit
that can be given him.

she was welcome anywhere else.
