At the opening of the season there was a very fair chance that they would do just this thing, but) the superb drive of the White Sox | indicated that the going would be pretty rough for Barry's crew be-| fore October. | Then along came Ruth's suspen gion. Ruth this year has won It games, almost one-third of the games the club had won up to that time. Take from a club a pitcher who is winning one-third of its games and the club is bound to} suffer. Jack Barry had ambitions this spring. Holding the managerial reins for the first time, this young est pilot of the majors has dream- ed of doing what Connie Mack and! Frank Chance had never succeed: | ed in doing, winning a third con secutive world championship with lis ball club. When the 1912 season opened it was considered a safe bet that Connie Mack would drive the Ath Jetics thru to another pennant tn the American league and then de molish any National league club sent against them. But Connie couldn't produce and Jake Stahl won with the Red Sox | The old Cubs won three National league championships in a row, but their defeat by the White Sox in 1906 prevented three world cham-| pionships. | The fate of the Red Sox depends @ great deal upon Ruth. The rive in the American league right row presages a tremendous finish in September. The Yankees have been playing at a 690 clip since tLe first of June. The Tigers have gone along at a pace well ve .700 since that time. The White Sox are playing consistent .650 ball. Loston will have to play at that rete at least to be in on the killing. eee f of THERE'S A LITTLE college in| California, St. Mary’s they call it, | were they grow, baseball p | ors lke weeds, and pretty nearly every scasou .inds one up in the majors.
