Doc White, our famed songster and composer, gave an artist's recital yesterday at Comiskey park, hut this time he wasn't displaying his musical talent. He also Is a master of the art of pitching a baseball and It was in this line that he entertained yesterday. With wonderful technique and perfect rhythm he hela his audience spellbound with admiration while he
rendered nine selections.
Doc was supported by an excellent
company that worked In almost per
fect harmony from the opening number to the grand finale, displaying at numerous Intervals that inimitable spirit of vivacity so marked in the
Comiskey-Callahan productions. The
final score was: Chicago, 2; New
York, 1.
Any one who doesn't think there is
art In baseball should go out to the south side park when Doc White is
on the slab. Doc was In no condiw
tion to win his game yesterday by
physical prowess alone. For several
weeks he has suffered with rheuma
tism and was unfit to accomplish
things thletic. But the White Sox pitching staff being so badly crippled that there was danger of losing a hold In the first division. Doc consented to try to help the team out of the hole.

keep yelling and shouting. It gives , spirit and ginge r to the pastime. But even this phase can be carried to ex-
cess. The writer has seen ball players punches,
so taken up with crying 'Tut' er over, I old chap you kin do it," that they are
partially caught off balance when an unexpected sharply hit grounder comes in their direction. Some fans have come to the point where they claim a ball team is lacking in pep when a whole bombardment of wordy sallies doesn't issue up to their ears from the field of action. It's
possible for a man to be on his toes, ready for anything, without delivering JENNINGS THINKS

HOG AN SHADES- PITCHER QUINN T. M'FARLAND LOSES BANKROLL

San Francisco, Aug. 1. 'One Round' Hogan gained a decision in his fifteenround bout with Tommy ' McFarland last night. The contest went the limit and was devoid of knockdown
although McFarland was
staggered several times in the last two rounds. In the early part of the bout it looked as though McFarland might prove the winner. He kept rushing and sending in body punches. As the fight went on Hogan scored with good effect. McFarland was always' dangerous, but Hogan handled him carefully and gained the verdict honestly.
New York," Aug. 2. -Pitcher Jack Quinn, recently sold by the New York Yankees to Rochester, was , in New York today on his way from Pottsvllle, Pa., to report to his new manager. In passing he had a tale of woe to relate which involved the loss of $125. Being warned of the recent ac
tivity of- New York pickpockets, he
kept a weather eye open ail the wa
to this city, but 'when he dug down to pay for his lunch he was shocked to find that his money was gone.

JOHNSON REPEATS
STORY ABOUT HIS RETIREMENT Jack Johnson laid stress on a previous report that "he is out of the prize fighting ring for good" when he went to the office of United States Commissioner Mary A. Foote yesterday afternoon. The preliminary hearing of the champion was again continued on motion of Assistant United States Attorney Robert W. Chllds. The hearing was set for August 10. "I have quit the ring," said Johnson
Brooklyn. N. Y.. Aug. 2. Chicago's Bruins wrested another game away from Brooklyn's Infants yesterday with as much ease as snatching saccharine merchandise, from children. The score was 9 to 3, and it was a lot . easier than that. Big Ed Reulbach took off his life saver's uniform and turned starter in- ' stead of finisher. He had the same-old I spell on Brooklyn as If the players I had not changed In half a dozen years. !
For six innings he held the Infants down to one scratch hit. For eight' innings they did not get anywhere
near a run off him. It would have been a- complete shutout but for two boots by" Tom Downey and Zimmerman in .the ninth Inning. By 'that time Manager Chance had almost a substitute team n the field, as his regulars had become fatigued fighting mosquitoes, and the P. L. thought it would be well to give the winged pests some new blood -to feast on.
