He has ervat- ed thousands of enthusiasts in New York who never before at- tended garhes. Babe is a colorful player, always doing his level best, and the whole baseball pub- le is pulling for him. The Yankees are making a great fight for the pennant and in my opinion Babe is the big factor in the Yankee attack.” WHITE STILL HOPES FOR TITLE Sooner or later Charlie White may become the lightweight champion This is the opinion of the Chicagoan He says “Some believe that champions are born, not made.
