Who would want more praise?” Seriously, Chance realizes what he is up against. Charice is a fighter. Regardless of how great a hand he is working under, he will give his best and insist that every man on; the team does likewise. Each game will be another ball game with Chance’s club, regardless of the out: come of the last one Chance's big worry, of course, will be the pitching.

(QUINN IS READY NOW “Just at present Jack Quinn Is the best-looking pitcher in the squad. Jack is in great shape.

They tell me the hot weather bothers him. However, Jack will probably have earned a rest by that time,” It may cause you to smile when you read that Jack Quinn at present | is Chance's most effective pitcher, the best conditioned man on the staff. It struck me that way be- cause Jack Quinn has been pitching professionally for nearly a quarter of a century. Yet it is a fine tribute to the veteran twirler. CHANCE IS HOPEFUL ‘The Red Sox manager has high hopes for several other players, He | is figuring on a lot of help from O’Doul and Murray, both secured in the trade that took Pennock to the New York Yankees, O'Doul, a southpaw, with a world of stuff, never got a real chance to show with the Yankees. because that | team always had an allstar staff of veteran pitchers, With Chance's lim- {ted staff it looks as If the big oppor- tunity in the baseball career of O'Doul has arrived.

Farrell, paired with Jim Barnes re- cently, jnmped into the spotlight by. twice decisively defeating National Open Champion Gene Sarazen and Jock Hutchison, In 85 matches with the leading pro- fessionals of the country, Sarazen and Hutchison were only defeated five times on their recent tour. This gives some idea of the opposition Barnes and Farrell presented. In one of the matches the winners were eight up. “Farrell is the most brilliant young golfer in the country.
