JOHNS If the White Sox hadn't been training near Waco, Tex. in the early twenties, perhaps Theodora Amar Lyons wouldn't be manager of the Chicago White Sox today. It was while he was attending Baylor. university, at Waco. that Catcher Ray Schalk of the Pale Hose visited the campus one after- noon and was asked by a coach to warm up the Baylor pitcher, Lyons. Schalk was impressed and: he his impression along to the late Kid Gleason, the Sox manager at the.time. The young collegian was promptly signed to a contract and told to report upon graduation. Ted Lyons reported to the Sox after his graduation in June of 1923 and he was injected into his first big league game July 2 when the Pale Hose were playing the Browns. Lyons pitched but one inning, facing three batters. Xe retired each of the men who came' to the plate and Ted Lyons was on his way to fame as a White Sox star. From that June day In 1923 Lyons has been with the Sox, first as the ace right-handed pitching star of the club and since last year as manager. The popuiar White Sox boss be- gan his career as an infielder on the sandlots near his home town of Lake Charles, La. He swilshody to tching because of & g0O ow= Dis arm after entering Ballor where he was studying for a bachelor of rts degree. » Always a winning pitcher for the Sox, Lyons suffered setbacks in his career when he yas injured on two different occasiofis. In 1928 he col- lided with Sam Rice and had to re- turn to his Louisiana home "to sit out the remainder of the season. Ewo years later he reinjured the arm in a night exhibition game. He pitched very little the next season and won only four games. He developed a knuckle-ball to add to his fast one and he turned in a brilliant record in 1942 when he already was past the age when pitchers show any effectiveness. In 1942 he finished all of his 20 starts, winning 14 games and had an earned-run average of 2.10. Greatest day in his playing ca- reer came on Aug. 21, 1926, when he twirled a no-hitter against the Boston Red Sox, winning, 6-0. Three times in his career he won 20 or more games and twice led the league in games won. In 1942 Lyons answered the call to colors when he enlisted as a pri- vate in the marine corps. He was promoted to captain and served In the pacific until his dishcarge in December, 1945. ' was appointed manager of the Sox in May, 1048, .replacing Jimmy Dykes. At the time the Sox had lost 20 games against 10 wins. When the 1946 season ended the Sox record was 64 wins and 60 losses. This season the Pale Hose have been plenty troublesome with the mild-mannered Lyons calling the shots from the bench. They are in the second division, but still remain only seven games out of first place. Lyons is a bachelor. Away from baseball his interest turns to other sports, such as golf, hunting and billiards.

Westmount last night home an 8.3 win. playing an even better brand of ball every time out after that close one against the Dunn's Tailors. MaGee pitched part way for the Westmount gang, while Siblock came in to play the relief role in the seventh. the way, and he pitched his usual steady game, although at times the Westmount team had him on his toes, for they were looking for a win, Hooker got five whiffers and allowed eight hits, while the com- bined offerings of MaGee and Sib- lock allowed ten hits and struck out the same number. game, when in the top of the first frame they pushed across four tal. lies on three singles and a dropped ball in the outfield. Westmount were out to make a game of {§ ever, and they came right back in their half of the first to pound in two runs and make the game inter. esting, They got the runs on three hits and a walk. They might have gotten another run, but for some great work by the catcher when he picked a man trying to reach third to end the inning with two men on base. In the top of the fourth Brooklin started to widen the gap between themselves and the Westmount Hep Cats, as Jack Nesbitt singled and came across the plate for the fifth Brooklin run. Again in the top of the fifth another singleton was scored in the person Vern Gibson, who hit a lusty homer way into the outfield to make the score 6.2 for the Dodgers. ' Westmount Rallies' In the last of the fifth the West- mount boys got that one back and didn't let the Dodgers get too far ahead when Keeler got to first on a walk and then went to second on an infield out and scored on two singles. One by Harper, the other by Hill The Dodgers pecked away and got singletons in the top of the seventh and eighth to make it 8.3 and that was the way it ended.
