Need help with 1915 White Sox PC
 
1 Attachment(s)
Class is in session and I need to further my education!:D Picked up this cool looking 1915 White Sox Spring Training PC on the BST and I need your help putting names to faces (no Shoeless Joe, joined the team later in the year!) I'm pretty sure I see Eddie Collins standing on the far right, Eddie Cicotte beside him and I think that's Lena Blackburne lying on the ground bottom left. Red Faber is the player 4th from the left in the top row (not counting the man in the suit). Wondering if Ray Schalk, Ed Walsh, Happy Felsch and Buck Weaver can be identified. Thanks in advance for your help!

Players
 
Here's a shot at a few of the players. I have a similar postcard from the 1918 season, so I've gotten to know some of the faces pretty well.

Back row L to R (?, Joe Benz, John "Shano" Collins, Red Faber, ?, Maybe Nemo Leibold but not sure, Reb Russell, Maybe Jim Scott, ?, ?, ? Kid Gleason
Front row L to R (?, ?, Pant Rowland, ?, Hap Felsch

I for sure don't see Buck Weaver or Eddie Collins, not sure about Schalk or Cicotte.

My guess at Schalk is he is the head peeking out in the middle of the back row, he was a short guy. I wonder if the rest of the guys were messing with him for this photo, kinda funny.
