What the club seems to lack most Is sufflolent reserve power, especially In the Infield and on the pitching ataff. Shoulu this prove adequate, then the White Sox' first division dream may come true.

Two hurlers on whom he Is depending for muoh saslstance are Ted Lyons and Vie rrasler, both of whom were ailing laat year and un able to give full account of them selves. Gregory a Prospect. Paul Gregory, the young right hander who was the only member of the mound corps who won more gamea than he lost in 1933, 1s looked upon as the beet prospect among the others. Ed Durham, formerly with the Boston Red Sox. Is expected to show better form under a change of color, while Joe Hevlng. George Mur ray, a great young prospect from Dal laa of the Texas lesgue. and Ed Welsh are considered among the beat of the new prospects. . .....
