One of the finest men in baseball retired from active playing participation, when Ted Lyons terminated his 21-year mound career Saturday when he took over as manager of the Chicago White Sox. He replaced Jimmy Dykes after Dykes had been ousted because the White Sox had been in a tailspin.
Lyons went straight to the White Sox when he left the Baylor university campus where he had starred on the mound. He joined the White Sox in 1923 and pitched for them until he enlisted in the marines in 1942 and he took up where he left off when he received his discharge this year.
Although he lost four_and won only one this season, he could have won them all with a few breaks. The amazing part of it is that he went the distance in all five games. He also had pitched 23 consecutive complete games before joining the service, and that gives him a total of 28 complete games in a row. Very few pitchers have accomplished this feat.
Lyons is the logical choice for the manager's job for the White Sox. He is one of the most popular players ever to wear a Chicago uniform, and is a shredman Lymons. Lyons is popular both with the fans and his teammates, and that means a lot in professional baseball. He will have a difficult job ahead of him, but my guess is that he'll come through successfully.
Angelo Bertelli, former Notre Dame. All-American passer, has caused a lot of comment with the report circulating that he signed a contract recently to play with Boston in the National football league next fall.
Slip Madigan, coach of the Los Angeles entry in the new All-America professional league, claims that Bertelli had signed a contract to play with Los Angeles next fall. Madigan has filed court action to get an injunction to prevent the ex-Notre Dame star from playing with any other team.
It is easily understandable why these teams are after Bertelli. He is one of the greatest passers in gridiron history, and he also is a fine quarterback and works in the T-formation system with perfection.
Bertelli could mean the difference between victory and defeat on a medicore team. He is a natural athlete and sparks any team he

Phi Delt, Ship's Company, Phi Gam PT-7 To Men's Softball Semi-Finals
They took him to a hospital where he told the doctor that his legs had been taken and developed the doctor told him it was no laughing matter.
Phi Delta Theta meets Ship's Company and PT-7 tangles with Phi Gamma Delta in the semi - final games of the intramural softball playoffs today.
With a single healthy practice swing the man had broken both legs in two places. He still thinks it's funny, but he'll be doing all of his laughing from a hospital bed for the next two months.
First round games were played Friday and Saturday because of the holiday Thursday and the chance that rain might force postponement
From down Texas way comes the story of a very odd accident on the golf links. It seems the golfer was on the first tee waiting for the fairway to clear, and he decided to take a few practice swings.
WHY WE SAY
plays on. It will be interesting to follow developments of the case.
He limbered up with a couple of short swings and then really stepped into one. Other members of his party laughed when he fell down, but when he told them he couldn't get up, they began to worry.
You golfers had better watch out on the links. You might not know your own strength.
