SOX W HAV

E REAL

OUTFIELD NEXT YEAR It'll Be Composed of Chap pell, Fournier and' Collins, All Imrpoved Ball Players.

Will the White Sox outfield next spring be stronger than that which performed for Callahan during . the season of 1913? If you will allow us to answer the question we will say that it will. Who will the players be? Why, in our humble opinion, the outfield of 1914 will be made up of men who wore the White Box clothes during the season Ween tly ended. But those players are all expected to be much better performers in 1914 than they were in 111. Suppose we make a rough guess and predict that Chappell, Fournier and Jack Collins will constitute the Sox

outfield next season. And you might cut this out, paste it on the wall and when the Sox line up for the opening battle next April it's dollars to doughnuts that Callahan will have the above mentioned trio in his outer garden. Larry Chappell? There is a lad who's a much better ball player than he was for the Sox during the past season. When Chappell came to the White Sox from the Milwaukee club, where he had been a whale of the

monster type, he was the highest

touted ball player, with the possible exception of Marty O'Toole of the Pirates, that ever Jumped Into the major

league. He read In the papers before

he joined the Sox all sorts of stories about himself (and his greatness. He was told that he and Mrs. O'Leary's cow cost Chicago a couple of fortunes.

He was told that unless he made three

or four hits the first day he played on

the South Side he would be voted a

dismal failure. And he was told a lot

of other bunk, equally as bad.

Now, after hearing all of that stuff

about hi mself and Mrs. O'Leary's cow, Chappell! must have felt a little shy when he came to this great big burg

to make his major league debut. But Chappell Is as game a lad as ever put

his foot into a spiked shoe, and he

didn't let the advance notices of his

greatness stop him.

rious than a muscle strain. The doc

of the bout with Ritchie. Ritchie, when informed of the mis

hap, ceased training and will take

matters easy for a week. The Cham pion is in superb condition.

GIANTS DEFEAT SOX

IN STORfiAT K. CITY

Faber Is Knocked Off Slab

by McG-raw's Band and Beaten, 6 to 2.

Kansas City, Mo., Oct. 27.- Charles

A. Comlskey and his troupe of sixty

people blew into town on the front wing of a bllss&rd from Medicine Hat yesterday morning, staged the big league stuff to 300 heavily clothed fans the Giants winning, 6 to 2 and left last night for Joplln. It was the first cold weather of the year and

those who had purchased pasteboards in advance were not to be denied the

chance to see their first big league game in the local park. Hundreds of the shivering populace brought lap robes with which to keep themselves warm and three desperate fans came to the park with oil stoves and kept them going full blast in the grand statid throughout the nine Innings of rather wabbly baseball, made so by the snowstorm In the morning which converted the field into a sea of mud and made fast fielding an impossibility. Without doubt the Sox would have bagged , thin combat without trouble had it not been for the fact that James Callahan made a bad guess In shooting Young Mr. Faber at the

world's series losers in the middle of the game. He was wild, hit support was wilder and the Giants ran bases like a lot of wild men. While he allowed only three safe blows, he walked a couple, two errors were made behind him and Catcher Daley was unable to glue to the elusive pellet with men on the bases.

Visions of the season's western con

ference title firmly In the possession of Director Stagg and his Maroons are

cherished by University , of Chicago students and adherents who saw the

performance of the Maroons against

Purdue. Chicago has yet to meet 1111

nois, Wisconsin, Northwestern and

Minnesota.

Director Stagg expressed himself as

both surprised and elated over the

work of his .for ward. The line, hi to

erto considered of paper consistency.

proved a stone wall under pressure and

smothered the Purdue line plays when

the attack was really threatening.

The Maroons came out of the clash

without a scratch. Time was taken out by only one Chicago man, Scanlan,

who was winded for a minute. Des

Jardlen. the giant center, by acting under instructions from Director Stagg

received some hard blows in his stand

lng tackles of the Purdue back field.

but his shoulder which previously had

been injured was not affected.

Director Stagg. while praising the

way affairs had turned out In the line, took occasion to turn his criticism, but only to a slight degree, upon his back

field men. They lacked the "punch" he expected them to demonstrate, he said, and they did not gain through

the line as well as he could wish.

"That vllne played a wonderful

game." said Stagg. "It was prepared

for Oliphant and had him covered ev

ery minute of the game Every man on the line played with all the strength and fight there was in him

and it was rewarded for its efforts by

a, splendid victory. The back field men

failed to execute some plays I expected them to use, and they did not

get into the game as well as I ex

pected, but they put up a good fight an dare not to be ctnsured too strong

ly."

Another surprise, aside from the

strength displayed by the line, was forthcoming when the , Maroons brought forth a ve.rswt.tile series of trick and fake formations. Coach Stagg had said he intended using straight football against Purdue and would not utilize his new creations unless It became absolutely necessary. Evidently "Eckie" Russell forgot the instructions, or else believed it necessary, for freak formations and open plays formed a large part of the Maroon attack.
