With the White Sox—So far as I know not’ much attention has beén paid to the part Lefty Williams may play in the ‘series. ‘ Williams has been pretty generally neglected by most players and critics with whom I have talked about the big event. But Williams may be very valuable in at least one game, the first one he pitches, if Rowland picks him to start. In Lefty’s few years in baseball he ‘has never lost an opening start against any club. Precedent doesn’t count, you may say—maybe not—but the fact of the matter is Williams has won every game(he has ever pitched against any club, major or minor, and there is no more reason for believing this won't | work out in the world series as well | as at any other time. Williams is death against left-hand- ers. Cobb, Speaker, Callins--any of the great southpaw hitters of the league candidly admit Williams is one ofthe toughest pitchers in ‘the league for. them: to- hit. In the Sox batting practice Johnson and Collins chase Williams off the field.every time he attempts to pitch said deceased, to exhibit them with the necessary vouchers, within four months after the first publication of this notice, to.said executor at the! officc ‘of the Northern Express com- peny in the City of Bisniarck in’ said Lurleigh county, North Dakota.

His uniform shirt is kept spot- lessly clean, the effect being that the batter loses sight of the ball on ac- count of the white background of his shirt: “I don’t know why it is I can always win against a club that has never seen my pitching Lefore, but I have had reinarkable luck that way,” Williams told me. “The same thing works out against individual .players as a general rule. Let any player, no matter how good a hitter, face me the first time and I usually take care of him. Confidence may. have.a great deal to do with it— of men in their first games against me and. am pretty confident whenever I face a new man.” If this is a criterion, Willtams, the neglected, miPht prove to be the Babe Adams or Bevient of this series.

Will die Cicotte be able to fool the: cream of the National league’ with. some: American league players claim he fooled “Ban” Johnson with all this season, helping the Sox to cop the American league pennant? Or—is the. “shine ball” a myth? Iam going to tell you what Eddie Cicotte says*about it himself. Eddie is given credit with being the invent- or and the originator of this delivery which astute batters of the American league has’ resurrected him from an early. trip to the bushes. Here is the story of Cicotte on his work: “The talk about the ‘shine ball’ this year has probably had a great deal:to! do with the making one of the leading pitchers in the American league. I can state“truthfully that the talk has done me more good than any so-called ‘shine ball.’ “It was:merely a matter of psychol- ogy. 1 outguessed the other fellow. “So long as the batters in the league felt that they ,were batting i Hl ‘ Cicotte Tells Paul Parman the 7 Secret of the ‘ } against something they knew nothing wore a rubber pocket in the trousers avout, I had-an advantage. | of my uniform and immediately start- “It you can ‘bluff a fellow into ‘bed a howl about.it. lieving you are better than he is, you have him“licked’ before you start. ‘shine ball” Chapman, Baker, Pipp and ey,’ I had something on them. ‘the same proposition that beat Terry McGovern in his famous fight against Young Corbett.

What player's work. will stand out head and shouldersabove them? ‘Will it be an unknown young- ster such as Rohe of the Sox in 1906 or will it be a regular like Baker in 19112 In past years the heroes have usu- ally been players .who surprised even the most studious dopesters.| Last year it was Gardner.

The-year be- fore that it was Baker. In 909 Babe, Adams upset all.the dope and béat Detroit out of a world’s championship. If records for this year are to have anything to-do with~it, Eddie Cicotte or one of McGraw’s southpaws should be the hero this year, but if former precedents hold good it will be some- one who is not-even considered in that role right now. Will it be McMullen, the wonderful young infielder of the Sox, of Jack Smith, the -rogkie second, baseman, who has capably filled Herzog’s shoes. It isa question only the big series can decide, but it is certainly worth thinking about. ' New York, ‘Sept. 28.—In the long nistory of world series play for the championship of the ‘basedall universe it is doubtful if any previous contest of this character aroused the wide- spread interest. which has been en- gendered by the coming clash be- tween the Chicago Americans and the New York Nationals. Although world series play-is, not new‘to either of the cities represented by cluds in ‘the tinale : of the . professional ‘baseball year, it will be the first-time that New York and-Chicago clubs have. met for the premier honors of ‘the diamond. This is all the more remarkable when it is considered that the world scries dates back to 1884-and: has con- tinued -in-one form or. another aad with but few ‘breaks for more than thirty years. The ensuing series will be the twenty-sixth since the Provt dence club of the National league taced thé Metropdlitan team of the American association in the initial contest back in 1884 and emerged victor in. three straight games: It will also be the thirteenth played .un- dér the code ,and jurisdiction of the National commission which in 1995 arranged for an annual meeting ve- tween the pennant winning clubs of the two major leagues. Oi the twelve series staged under these rules the American league teams have won seven and the: Na- tional league cluw>s five. Sixty-six games have been played ,of which the Americans have won 33 and the Na- tionals 31 with two resulting in tle contests, But one run divided the rec- ords of the two leagues in this re- spect as during these 66 games the National league players ha rossed the plate 223°times to their rivals 222. Another, interesting features of tne meeting of the Chicago and New York cluds is the fact that both may ‘be said to hold charter membership in their respective organizations. The New York team entered the seaior Contest Between Giants And White Sox Arouses Fans of Entire Nation hasevall circuit on formation in 1876 and finished: sixth that season. At the close of the schedule play tha combination dropped -out and did not return until 1883 ,from which date its connection, ,with the ‘National league has» been continuous. ‘The Chicago White Sox played .a -prominent part inthe -forming of. the American league in 1900 and has also held. con- tinuous,,mem ership, in. the. junior league since that year. . - Difring this. period of eighteen years the: White..Sox. have woy four. pea- nants capturing flags in. 1900, .1901, 1906 and 1917. The club has figured, in but one World. series,,, however, meeting and defeating the. Chicago Nationals -by four games to two in -1906... The, New. York .Nationals have ya more extensive record in: this res- pect owing to longer connection with the sénior league. Since’ 1876 the clu) haswon seven league championships and ‘three world series, and ita aver: age position for 36 seasons is four showing in this. department of the re- cords-is even better, the White Sox having gained the high average:of 3. over a stretch of 18 years.
