Eddie Collins to Receive $25,000 Next Season as Pilot of White Sox
pLAYER-MANAGER OF CHICAGO
PALE HOSE WILL RECEIVE FAT
SALARY FOR SEASON'S WORK
Charles Coiniskev Opens Poekctbook and Pays Pilot $2.),
000—Will Give Collins Material to Develop Good Club.
By DAVIS 4. WALSH.
CHICAGO, Dec. IP —
Edward T. Collins,
probably the
grea test second
baseman baseball
' has known, will
contrive to eke
out an existence
next season at a
salary of $25,000
as player-manager
1 of the Chicago
White Sox, ac
cording to infor
mation b a n d ied
about today among
baseball men as
they departed for home.
Collins thus entered the small hilt
select group of baseball's "heavy
sugar" boys, the coterie including
Messrs. Ruth, Mctiraw, Cobb and
Hornsby.
No other ball player or manager
is believed to draw more than
*20,000 a year. Charles A. Conils
key, who Is not Inclined to be care
less with important money, will
look for Collins to make good on the
investment. The length of Edward’s
contract, one year, is the tip-off on
Comiakey’s attitude. Never before
lias he paid an employe more than
$15,000 a year. The present ar
rangement would prove somewhat
irksome to him if the White Sox
were chronic losers under Collins.
Collins, of course, will get a fair
trial. In fact, he probably will re
ceive better financial support than any
manager outside New York, for
Ccmiskey has told friends that he will
back Collins to the limit, even to the
extent of paying as much for a good
minor league prospect as he did for
Willie Kumm, to wit. $100,000.
At the same time lie admits that
lie ran not really liny what the Sov
needed last year—a hustling hall
club. Johnny Kvers was dropped
down ill a tough spot when Frank
Chance died. The going became
rougher as the campaign progressed.
There seemed to he quite a number
of hall players in Chicago w ho would
not win for Kvers. Though the
White Sox larked consistent pitch
ing and a shortstop, they were not
a last place hall club on paper. The
Sox finfshed Iasi, but Collins must
have u shortstop and tile tip is out
that Comiskey will shortly indulge
himself in another costly minor
league purchase.
Newspaper Reveals Betting Scheme
To Fix One or Two Racves Each Keek
Chicago, Dec. 19.—Letters signed by “The I nited Riders Society of
America,’* soliciting betting co-operation in a scheme to fix one or two races
a week by placing their own agents as riders on the horses, have been re
ceived by 50 Chicagoans and also sent to 50 persons in all the large cities of
the country, today's Herald and Examiner said.
The promoters, who used the nines of prominent jockeys, asked the re
cipients of the letters to make certain bets on designated horses anil turn
over any winnings to the promoters in return for the privilege of making
any other bets desired, the newspaper said.
The letter said the society had branches in Toronto, Montreal, New York,
Cincinnati, New Orleans, Tia Juana and Havana, with a membership of I,INK)
i arefully chosen jockeys.
Boosters Trim
Athletic Club
Denver. Colo., Dec. IS.—The Denver
Roosters made It two straight over
1he Omaha Athletic club basket ball
team Thursday night, at the City
auditorium winning by a 34 to 2?
count. Coach Darrell of Denver start
ed three subs and Omaha got the
jump. Baskets by Captain Smith and
Christensen put O. A. C. into the
lead, which they held during the
first 10 minutes of play. Two great
shots by Bruce soon gave Denver a
S to T advantage, which they held
throughout the game.
The score at half time was Denver
13, Omaha 11. In the last half the
piay was nip and tuck. Denvers short
passing and short basket-shooting
game gave them the edge to win out.
ns Omaha found it hard to break
through R.van and Vidal and were
forced to hit the hoop from long
range. Bruce, Ryan and Vidal starred
for the Mile High team and ^uper
noia and Christensen were Omaha's
best bets. The teams meet in the final
game of the series Friday night.

Risko, With Right Kind of Sock,
Looms as Latest Heavy Hopeful
IX A year or two John RIako
Cleveland heavyweight, ahotild
loom up as a logical contender for
the heavyweight crown, now gather
ing dust in the closet of the movie
liortre of Jack Dempsey,
At least Kisko should be as logi
cal a contender as any of the bevy
of hopefuls and highly press-agent
ed gents now seeking a crack at
Dempsey's sky piece. That is the
opinion of many ulm have seen
Risko develop in recent months.
It has been mentioned before,
without drawing any argument,
that tlie prime requisite of a heavy
weight Is the ability to sock. Round
house swings are not the kind of
socks spoken of. The short, straight
ones that sink the receiver drunk
enly like a soggy, water-logged ship,
are the right kind. And Kisko has
these.
First of ail, let us sight Mr. Rls
ko's k. o. record. While getting hi*
bearings and some pretty pewter
medals as an amateur, Jonathan
knocked out .19 of the t men he
fought, lie lost hut two fights,
Tommy Kirby whipping hint In
three rounds in Boston and Mike
Wallace in three rounds.
Bince entering the pro ranks Riak<
has been defeated but twice. Marty
Burke was given s newspaper dee!
slon over him In 10 rounds and Ro
mcro Rojas drew the referee's deei
slon in 1" rounds—a decision that was
given the ha-ha by the assembled
multitude. Only the referees wife
can listen to his reasons for his
verdict.
Risko's knockout victim* Include
Harry Krohn, Joe Downey. Sam
Deni*. Mike Wallace (sweet revenge
for that whack as an amateurt, Billy
Walsu and a bimbo named Battling
J. D. lie has point decisions over
no less a husky than Homer Smith
and the well-known Joe Ixdiman. who
has met the rank and file of 'em for
years.
Kisko started nut as a clumsy,
lumbering mauler. Ills greatest ene
mies were his feet. He Anally led
them into the paths of rectitude and
acquired some technique. It was
not until Danny Dunn, once a clev
er little Aghter and now hta mana
ger, took hint in charge that ltisko
really found himself.
When iMiisn matched his protege
with Rojas, Rtsko's friends objected.
The big Chilean battler, while losing
to acme more experienced 1 tattlers in
the east, had fchown his worth a« a
fighter.
ltisko held his /ran with Rojas
early In the fight and In the last
three rounds had the Latin American
barking away.
Rlsko is young. He has been fight
ing less than three years, which
means that he has not begun to burn
out. He likes to fight and ha* hut
one idea in the ring—to see the other
gent covering the maximum amount
of canvas Which is the proper spirit
for an aspiring heavy.
Watch him.

WESTERN KEAGUE FAILS TO
SEND I’Ml'AIi QUOTA OK
STARS TO MAJORS.
( (A” TEARNEY'S Western
Y~* league failed to send Its
usual quota of players to
the majors during the season of 1924
Judging the past season with 1922
and 1923, the oT circuit has slumped
somewhat In producing ivory for the
big brothers.
Thus far only two' Western
league players of 1924 have been
peddled. They are Thompson, sec
ond baseman, and Isuiie Kmipal,
pitcher, Imth of the championship
Omaha Buffaloes. 'Tis true that
“Nick” Cullop goes to the N'ew
A ork A ankers next spring, but
“Nick” was sold to the Huggins
club in 1923. so can’t be included
ill the 1924 sales.
The AArstern fairly sparkled with
good material last year, but this
material didn’t belong to club own
ers. In most rases the material in
question was In this circuit on op
tion. Take for instance, Outfielder
Osborn of Omaha, Outfielder
llouthitt of .St. Joseph, and Pitch
ers Bayne ami Blaeholder of Tulsa.
They all were on the rosters of
their respective clubs as optional
players. Osborn goes back to Seat
tle, Doutliitt to the Cardinals and
the two pitchers to the Browns.
There have been several changes
made In the rosters of all Western
clubs, but it remained for Barney
Burch to sell two members of his
championship team to the major*.
WANT ED AA eTk TO POINT
STOCK JUDGING TEAM.
THK University 'of Nebraska pro
duces crack football, track and
field teams and last but not
least, champion stock judging teams.
Recently the Nebraska stork
judging team won first place in a
stock judging show and right then
and there things began to lirighten
up among the “Aggie" students at
the Husker school.
Ed AAcir, captain of the 1924
Husker football team and captain
for 192a, is a student in animal
husbandry. He hi siad to be a
very good judge of stork, in fact, as
good a judge of stork as he is a
football pla>er and Ed is an All
American tackle, too.
Next year AA’eir will be a senior,
and members of the stock judging
team want him to become a mem
ber of the judging team.
The chances of Weir quitting foot
toll to become a member of the stock
judging team are not very bright.
Dawaon needs Weir on bis foothall
team and will get him.
