In fact Foxx, even at current prices, should be worth more to a club than any of the other st Mack has sold in the last two years. Jimmy is still a comparative youngster, with at least 10 more wears of first class performance in his system. He is famed chiefly for his hitting but he is an effective fielder and has one of the greatest arms in basbeall. | Plenty Of Takers ‘There's little doubt the Red Sox, Chicago White Boston Sox or Like a dip into a stream ! to stay pure.

Foxx is a much better fielder than a lot of people think and he’s the next thing to Gehrig in durability. League Well Supplied As a whole the American league is fairly well equipped with first basemen but there are no clubs who would not be willing to make room for Master Foxx, if avail: Jimmy can do a fair-fo- mndlm job on third base, for that matter, as he did in the all-star game this summer. Detreit has big Hank Greenbers who can neither hit nor play the 'bag with Foxx. Hal Trosky of and Zeke Bonura of new-comers with a great deal of promise. Jack Burns of the Browns is one of the league's smoothest workmen and a {ing batter. The Senators have Joe Kuhel, at present on the shelf but an able young first sacker. Meanwhile the Red Sox have been struggling along with Eddie Mor- gan, who is, like Foxx, a right- handed thrower but not equipped otherwise to offset this somewhat technical disadvantage. - <> - | The talk has!| ‘We { The diameter of the sun is 864,- 100 miles, or 109.1 times the diam- eter of the earth. mountain Science TELEPHONE 985 The BEST SUMMER DRINK of Them ALL \ N \ ) ) ) \ ) ) : 1Y ) GREAT DAY-SAVER NEW YORK, Aug. 23.—Jimmy DeShong is proving a great day- saver for the Yankees.
