IN THE PENNANT DRIVE

Rival Turns Have Grounds For Accusing White Sox of "Stealing" the Pennant BY JACK VEIOCK. lf ( fslrrsafKual .Tries o-rls.l NEW YORK, Septsmiber 12. Base running has been a big factor ht the pennant drive of the Chicago. White Sox. In fact, rival team in the Amer ican League, might acuse them of "stealing" the pennant, for the latest base running figures hw Rowland' 'urn far In advance of the field. The sace set by the Rowland men has netd them a total of nearly 200 stolen lases in games played up to Reptemicr 5, and they rank today as the best ?ase running club in either major league. The Cleveland Indians tank s in this department of the game, while the Cincinnati Nationals are third. The base running of four White Sox dnvers has been particularly brilliant Eudie Collins leads his team with a total of thirty-five stolen cushions, hile Nemo Leibold, George Weaver ind Hapny Felsch, w ith Collins, have itmen 101 bancs between tlicm.

The :'ulton-Morris fiasco on Labor Day vas a big disappointment. It could not have been wono had he big battlers tried to make it so, md it has (eft the fistic public with a nighty por impression r-f the pres-nt-iU:y crop of heuvyvt'ight title as.ii rants. Ki.lten won because Morris was d;uulifiid for butting, and Iteriuse he A'tn he must le given wh.tt little :reilit goes with such a dimsy victory, ,et the manner in wiiich the arfair ame to an end is a horrible si::m at he Iwsvvweigh.t division, outside of .Villard. Kuhsn war brcaurc Carl llorria wt a pugilist Carl is just a hig, ough-and-tumhle conglomeration of Hnc and muscle, sans everything that eaembles cleverness, ring tactics or knowledge of her a fight should be uade. Compared to him Pulton is "r.irly well versed in the art of hand ling his dukes. He understands fairly veil how a punch should be put over od he knows something about Uecn liag himscliagaint legal ring taeies. He ia big and bony and he can hit w ith both hands. That's Fulton. Bef,se of h.s techrflral aupeiinrity over I1orr;, Fulton is toilay the logical mn to meet Jess Willaid, and when the time comes for this meeting here may be a great many fistic fol'owers who will tring with the Mialesota plasterer. But there will b a ijreat many more who will not. If Carl Mori is is too rough a citizen o suit the fastidious taste of Frederick Fulton, what will Willard beT Acount.i of the fiasco at Canton old that Fulton started to leave the ing m the tifth round. He didn't want 'o fare any morn of the rough stuff hat Horns was pulling, and he was absolutely nnsMe to use his knowllge cf hnttfrif to stop the big man from Oklonoma. In some ways Fulton was right, for Morris wasn't f ght:ng acordipg to Hoyle. Yet Fulton lidn't show an overahunduiiee of bark'ione and courage. Now then, whet Ku'ton stands up in fmnt of Jess Willairi's nix feet teven inches of mountainous bone arid muscle, what is he gi ing to do? He till be outweighed by many pound, ind he will have the knowledge that he is facing a champion. If Horns war. ah! U take Fulton's gC it, whiskers and all, what will 'Vtflrd he able to do to him? T'te iitoi are that V iHard will make the lanky plasterer feel like jinnping uut f the ring, Willaiil has the reputation of being a uiU-er peaceful eltin.n ut: U 1 ho i tung. They say le doe-lit like to fight, and it is probably tiuc enough. But in order to hve a chanr with Miliard at all Fulton must sting him. and when ha does he will ti s the boomerang that will return to him n lth the form of a tornnd. Judging from his pa:t perfortnances Fulton will not relish thi sort of thing in the least, for he evidently lacks the thing that made Jess WilUrd a chsrrpionthe abi'ity to take punishmsUi and Use it.

But whether a -reading of tit star would prove this or not, it is a certainty that fortune ha favored Joe, for h came within an ace of being in the minor league today instead of sitting on th? bench with the Cuant, where he is planted as one of McGraw's substitute outfielder. Wilhoit was a star in tho. minor leagues, and as such he was picked up hy the Boston Braves this season and given a trial by George Stalling. For a time Jo hammered tha ball hard enough to suit the Boston leader, hut when Stalling made tha deal that brought Powell and Rrhg to th Bravea he asked for waiver on Joe and Pittsburgh claimed him. Wilhoit played with tho Pirate for few weeks, and once again waiver were aaked on him. McGraw, at th time, was uncertain as to how hi player would far n the draft for the national army. H feared that Davey Robertson would h takmi away from him, and he signed Wilhoit to fill in should his right fielder be called. So Wilhoit, twice slated for the minors, is to split the world" s"rt melon with the national Leagu champions. , JIMMY SMITH-When Artie Kletchar was spiked by a tiding baaa runner :onie weeks ago and forced to take to the bench for a short time. Jimmy Smith who had been released by tlw Toronto club, was signed to fill in at shortstop for the Giants. Jimmy had been picked up previously by Hugo Brrdek. the new Pirate manager; but, like Wilhoit, he failed to impress Hugo, who couldn't see him with a pair of binoculars. nd at th tune McGraw grabbed him he was on his way b-iek to the bush.
