Pitching Staff Is None Too Strong
With Dick Kerr and Red Faber aa
Only Reliables—Bib Falk May
Be Developed.
What of the White Sox team for
1921? The outlook Is not discouraging,
by any means. When the Hose have
such masters as Eddie Collins, Itay
Schalk, Dick Kerr, Shauno Collins, Ne-
mo Leibold and others to start with.
Some positions will have to be
strengthened, notably third base, short
stop and the slab, however. McClel-
lan. the recruit shortstop, who has
been with the club two seasons, may
fill the bill, writes Malcolm MacLean
In Chicago Post.
It Is In the pitching, none too strong
this season, wheTe the Sox will have
to have considerable aid. Kerr has
developed Into a star, and Red Faber
stAl should have years of good work
left. But no club can go along with
but two regulars.
Hope rests on Hodge and Wil-
kinson, both of whom have shown
signs 'of major work. Hodge pUched
one really great gnme, when he held
the Tigers to two hits.
Comlskey has other slabbers on his
list, recruits of promise. Payne, who
was a sensation In the Western league,
Is one of these.
At least one hard-hitting outfielder,
possibly two, would come in mighty
handy, but they are hard to find. In
Leibold, Strunk and Murphy the club
has three excellent hitters—all of them
left-handers, by the way—and the first
two named are good fielders. Murphy
Is a hit unsteady on fly balls.
Unless the Sox can gather in at
least one high-class right-handed swat-
ter, they may switch John Collins, who
was a .300 man last year—to the gar-
den and try out Bib Falk or Jourdan
at first.
Falk Is both a pitcher nnd a flrst-
sfteker, much as Sisler was when the
latter was a collegian. Falk can also
play the outfield. However, In ease
the' Sox don’t pick up a southpaw to
aid Kerr. It Is possible that Falk
might develop Into his mate, and Jour-
dan take cure of first.

mate, disposed of crooked gamblers
who approached them with a proposi-
tion to “throw" the 1904 world so-

exactly $1,500 a year for his services
on the slab, he threw the fixer out of
his room. Crlger was even rougher,
he said Cy suid gamblers have made
repeated attempts to "fix’’ games, but
the players have been too honest.

A man is a gourmet as he is » P°*‘
or an artist or simply learned, lasts
U a delicate organ, perfectable and
worthy of respect Uke the eye and
ear. To be wanting in the sense of
taste Is to be deprived of an exquisite
faculty, of the faculty of discerning
the quality of aliments Just as one
may be deprived of the faculty of dis-
cerning the qualities of a book or o
a work of art; It Is to be
an essential sense of a part of human
superiority.—Guy de Maupassant.
WHAT SHALL WE HAVE TO EATT
nrnblem of something
good and liked by all the family may
i,e helped by the follow-
ing suggestions:
Lamb Broth with Rice.
—Cut three pounds of
lntnh from the neck into
small pieces; add three
quarts of cold water and
set over the fire to cook;
continue the cooking un-
til the lamb Is tender,
then remove the meat for hash or cro-
quettes. To the broth add an onion
with two cloves pressed Into It, a car-
rot cut In thin slices, a small onion,
a few dried celery leaves and dried
parsley, If fresh Is not at hand, and a
piece of green or red pepper; cover
partially and simmer half an hour. Re-
move the fat. also the onion and other
vegetables if desired, and add a cup-
ful of boiled rice with suit and pepper
to season. Skim off the fat before
serving or lay tissue paper on the
surfuce to remove any surplus fat.
Mock Orange Marmalade.—Crate
well-cleaned carrots to make two
pounds and squeeze over the carrots
the Juice of three lemons; set to cook
in a double boiler and cook nn hour,
or until the carrots are tender; then
add the grated rind and Juice of two
oranges with peeling of both oranges
and lemons, which will be removed
later. Cook for several hours, remove
the rinds and add four cupfuls of su-
gar and cook until a marmalade Is
formed. The presence of carrot will
be entirely covered hy the fruit flavors.
Tapioca and Date Sponge.—Cook
one-third of a cupful of fine tapioca
in a pint of boiling water, suited.
When the mixture Is transparent Btlr
in a half potmd of dates, which have
been washed nnd seeded; add one-
fourth of a cup of sugar and the Juice
of a large lemon. Beat the whites of
two eggs very light and fold In the
tapioca mixture. Cover and let stand
on the back of the range until ready
to serve, feerve with cream or a thin
boiled custard.
Toast, Cheese and Onions.—Cook the
onions until tender, chop and add to
a rich white sauce with a half cupful
of grated cheese. Toast bread, butter
It and pour the hot mixture over the
toast. Serve at once.
Our Style ef Crawl Differ* In Many
Features From British—Fesltlen
•f Bedy Is Higher, Affecting
Action of Legs.
One of Great Brltaln’a leading
aquatic authorities. W. J. Uowcroft of
Garston, secretary of A. S. A. and
amateur coach to the recent Olyinp c
water carnival, analyzes the methods
which succeeded at the International
meet In a manner which may prove
very valuable. He says;
“I gladly comply with your request
for my views concerning the swim-
ming competition at Antwerp, though
there Is so much to tell that I must
necessarily confine myself to the sali-
ent points. And I will start by saying
without reservation that at crawl and
back crawl swimming you are far. far
In advance of Great Britain and other
nations.
“In many features your style of
crawl differs from ours. The position
of the body is higher In your stroke,
and this naturally affects the leg ac-
tion. In your style the feet and lower
legs do not come out of water; In ours
they do. We favor what you call a
•six beat thrash of even scope,’ while
1 your contestants usually Introduce one
or two wider kicks per cycle of move-
ments. Your arms recovery is slower
than ours, easier nnd much nearer the
surface. Also you bend the arms at
the start of the recovery and we swing
them around In half circle. ou
straighten out the arms for the entry
and we bend them at the catch to en-
ter directly over the center line or
progression. These, I think, are the
noticeable differences. I may add
that we Intend to give your style a
very thorough and exhaustive trial.
“In our respective back crawls there
1b only slight difference. All your
devotees keep the head rather high,
claiming It allows them to plane, but
we believe this position causes the
legs to sink and drag. We tench a
head back poise, level with the surf-
ace, so that the feet are high and coino
opt of the water In threshing. Tills
may lose some leverage, but It mini-
mizes water resistance and there la
forward Impetus from the downward
‘ Impact of calves. As our best expo-
nents are under seventeen we will have
to wait awhile before attempting to
draw conclusions regarding the rela-
tive value of these styles.’

SOME WAYS WITH VEGETABLES.
For those who enjoy onions the fol-
lowing recipe will be one worth re-
membering :
Onions Stuffed With
Psanut Butter.—Select
mild onions of medium
size, peel and boll until
tender. Cut out the cen-
ter from each to leave
a thin shell of the onion.
Chop the onion removed,
add an equal quantity of
soft fine bread crumbs, and for a pint
of the material add a half cupful of
peanut butter, half a teaspoonful of
salt, and half a teaspoonful of pa-
prika. A chill pepper, chopped fine,
may replace the paprika. Mix nnd till
onions. Let cook ubout 15 mln-
bastlng with hot milk three
times. Serve with a cream sauce, us-
ing some of the liquid In the pan for
part of the sauce.
Rice and Mushroom Croquettes.—If
fresh mushrooms are used, peel the
caps and break them In pieces. I-et
cook In butter or vegetable oil until
softened, aklm from the fat and set
aside. To the fat in the pan add
half a cupful of rice that hua been
partly cooked nnd drained. When the
rice has taken up all the fat add two
cupfuls of stock, milk or boiling wa-
ter and a half a teaspoonful of salt;
let cook until the liquid Is absorbed.
When the rice Is cooked, stir In the
mushrooms lightly with a fork. Turn
out on a buttered plnte to chill. Shape,
i crumbs and egg and fry In deep
Pried mushrooms may he used,
soaking them In water and using the
water as part of the liquid In which .
the ri<e Is cooked.
Holiday Pumpkin Pie.—Line a pie
plate with fancy pastry, or plain rich
paste, and fill with the following:
Beat one egg. and the yolk of another;
add one cupful of sugar, one-third fif
a cupful of molasses, one and one-half
cupful* of pumpkin, cooked dry and
sifted; half a tea«poonful of salt, two
tnblespoonfuls of fine chopped pre-
served ringer, a tablespoonful of pow-
dered ginger, one cupful of cream half
a cupful of milk; mix well aad turn
Into the ^paMry lined piste Add a
tablespoonful of batter cut In small
over the top and the grating of
from half a lemon. Bake forty
This *111 make a large pie.

f \ NE of the ninny lovely dance
frocks made of tnfTetn silk Is plc-
1 tured here, and If ever there was a
more alluring Invitation to the dance
than It succeeds In expressing, we will
have to look to music to make It. For
party dresses, for dancing, nothing
1 seems to have quite the charm of
taffeta silk, and It may be rightly de-
1 scribed as a Joyous fabric In its light
colors. In black and dark colors it
makes afternoon and dinner frocks un-
pretentious, but surpassingly cliarm-
Ing. The youthful and pretty model
shown In the picture employs apricot
colored taffeta with a frivolous short
overdress of chiffon In the same color.
This is made of overlapping flounces
having scalloped edges bound with bins
folds of the taffeta. The underskirt
Is moderately wide nnd ankle length,
the simple bodice draped In n “V”
elinped neck opening at the back and
front, nnd filled In with a chemisette
of fine lace. The sleeves are merely
two flounces of the scalloped chiffon.
Many pretty rivals of this dresa
brighten the display loom of the shop
that presents It. There Is one In pink
taffeta having a plain “baby” waist
with straits of tnffeta over the shoul-
ders and a full round skirt. About
the bottom of the bodice there Is a
narrow frill formed by gathering tho
skirt to the bodice In this way. and
nestling In this frill, ncross the front,
there are small, half-blown garden
roses set In a row. Over them and over
the bodice there is n veiling of mallnea
scantily draped. It Is hardly notice-
able, but adds a beautiful touch Itko
a rosy mist over silk and flowers. It
Is like the tnffeta In color.
Imagine, In the company of these
two frocks, n third of apple green
taffeta, with a low bodice nnd full
skirt gathered on a small wire at the
hips to make It stand out from the
figure. It bus n pretty fichu of inaltnes
to match, nnd there are motifs made
of light green glnss bends scattered
about on the skirt.
