Mona says some people wonder why they can't be « served with that White Sox 4 mug. It's a No-No! When everybody was complaining about inflation and everything going up, the rains came down. Riding near New Munster *, Sunday, we saw a Christmas tree and Santa Claus in a window. Probably just checking -- "Will you love me in May as you did in December?" Just checked and there are only 237 shopping days 'til Christmas. Our White Sox seem to win 'em close or lose 'em big. Club fans can find consolation in the fact that their team is building.

Crowds are comparatively small when one looks at football, basketball and baseball, but interest is growing. It's a good sport.
