The rubber was an even proposition up to 3 all, when Wood lost his service with a double fauit after getting a cramp in his right| hand.

Davis showed rare courage in his uphill fight after this series of reverses and pure gamgness added to physical power carried him through to a hard won victory at 6—2, 6—4.

He s Charles Albert Comiskey, president and owner of the Chicago White Sox, and one of the greatest men in baseball. Builder of what was considered in years gone by one of the greatest baseball clubs in pre- fessional ranks, Mr. Comiskey, after wrecking his machine following the i world series disclosures of 1918, today sees his reconstructed team again fighting in the Airst division. Picked by experts from coast to coast this year as a poor second di- vigion club the White Sox have pro- vided one of the greatest surprises of the season. The club after getting away to a poor start, suddenly started its climb toward the top of the {league, and on June 16, the White Sox were intremched in third place. The club recently went into a bat- ting slump but again has struck its stride. : Mr. Comiskey upset the baseball I'world in the fall of 1820 when he wrecked his baseball club following disclosures of throwing the 1919 world's series games to the Cincin- nati club. At that time the Old Re- man suspended seven of his star players—Jackson, Cicotte, Willlams, Felsch, Weaver, Risberg and McMul- |HnAthbrehy wrecking the club to ti*p jextent of one million dollars or more. Not discouraged by the terrible |loss, Mr. Comiskey set about at once to build another baseball club. He {tried to buy star players from other clubs in his league but with little success. He sent scouts to all parts of the country and, gathered every {promlslng player he could into the |fold. One of his moves was the ac- quisition of the enfire infield of the |Salt Lake City club of the Pacific ICoan league, with the exception of |the second baseman. These were Er- nie Johnson, Eddie Mulligan and Earl Sheely, |die who was one of the players who re- |mained loyal to the Old Roman. year, the club as last season, with the exception that a few promising young pitchers have 'been added to the roster, Recently Mr. Comiskey startled Qhe baseball world, with the ment that he had hought ‘I\amm sensational third baseman Willie ‘of Ihe San Francisco club for $1008,000. | m will report in 1923. ommy” was born August \1&%0 He played ball when he was |seventeen years of age He time was a pitcher for the Elgin, Il club; later he played third base and first base, but as a first baseman he had no superior in his day. ranks to bes sole owner of a major leaguc ball club.
