C.COMISKEY IS LUCKY MAGNATE Gets Great Battery Talent for Small Expenditure BASEBALL Slier luck and baseball intuition have made Charles A. Cssslsfesi the most loet nan te magasts in the woiid in picking uji iroat cat' hers and pitch ers, s,i8 a Chicago writer. Just think of it. Comlshoy corraled six uf the greatest slabmen in captivity, worth In cold cash, more than ttdfSOg, f they could he DOUghl at all, and "om niy baggod them for a mere sonx.

"Schalk is the greatest yooOg cab h er i aver saw." was the spontaneous exclamation of John J. MeGraw after seeing the little i atcher In actum last fall. Laudatory remarks about tin Sox pitchers are common in the b'g baseball centers. The earned run proves their superiority. It's a Joke to ask t'ontlskey to sell one of his sex tette of star pitchers, The Bos owner dreams of the day when the world' pennant will lloat from Ids besehal stadium on the smith aide, II I httl tie pitc hers and the catchers to reach this goal.

Though the Swedish army is now at full strength, no reserves have beOB called tu the culors, and unless the reservists are oaflod, Swe den's athletic development will go on as usual.
