NEA Sports Editor notes a sweeping overhaul of the Chicago White Sox from a last place team in 1970 to a contender. Key shifts include new ownership John Allyn, revamped front office led by Roland Hemond, manager Chuck Tanner, a stronger pitching staff with Sam McDowell and Terry Forster, and a rebranded park image centered on Comiskey Park’s 35th Street location.
