Killefer became a fine receiver, a fair batter but not as ure a thrower as either Schalk or Kling. If Billy Sulivan had not begun too carly in the minors to be eligible as » National Assocfation graduate he would discount either of the other Chicago players in many respects. But take service, skill and all, with endurance and ability to go in day after day, Schalk seems to be leader of any who went from the minors to the majors. He played with Taylorville in the I and M. in 1911, at Milwaukee in 1912 and then straight to Chicago, where he has been ever since.
