A large number of fouls were called on both teams, one Mandan player going out of the game because he had made four personal fouls. Burke and Alfson played fast games for the locals,” Burke: showing good form in following in long’ shots. Nel- son was a Mandan star. The Game For the first few minutes of play neither team scored.

ABILITY MAKE STAR PITCHER Sam Jones of the-Yankees Owes Much of His Fame To the Fact That He Has Always Pitched Intelligently ¢ By NEA Service. San Francisco, Feb, .21—Hour lads, who played together as youngsters on the sandlots, are to’make up the all- San Francisco infield of the Cincin- nati National League team.~ Chums from childhood, this quartet will, by a trick of fate, all be together again when the next season opens.. ago.” Carrigan was then managing the Boston club. A trade had been made: with Cleve- land whereby the Indians secured ‘Speaker, tho big star of the Boston club» In return the Red Sox secured Pitcher Sam Jones and a recruit in- fielder and a lot of money. The trade was, the laugh of the baseball world as.far as talent was concerned. ~ One'.of the things that Carrigan insisted on was that Boston secure Sam Jones as one of the play- ers. Jones was then an unknown youngster. Miost of the critics were surprised over Carrigan’s insistance on Jones. ‘Karly in the spring I mentioned this fact to Carrigan. He merely laugh- ed and replied: ‘ Jones Has Made Good “Jones should be a great pitcher. He has a fine delivery and a good curve ball. When he knows: how to pitch, and he should soon learn as he is a bright fellow, he is going to win a lot of ball games. -Some day he is liable to be as valuable as Speaker.” Bill Carrigan certainly was a wise guy. Jones has fulfilled his prophecy and then some. It was interesting for me to read an interview that Carl Mays, ono of the game’s greatest pitchers, gave on the art of fooling the baiter. ‘Here is the compliment Mays paid Jones; “Sam Jones is ‘as good a pitcher as there is in baseball. He has nerve, brains and control. Those things make a great’ pitcher. Mathewson was great because he had all three.” BY BILLY EVANS Who is the smartest pitcher in the [American League? There are a lot of pitchers in both major leagues who use their head as well as their arm. Recently I asked Nick Altrock, a great pitcher in his day, which pitch- er worked most intelligently in the American League. I figured that query would make Nick do some tall thinking, but almost before I had finished he answered: “Sam Jones is the wisest guy in For a moment Nick had me on the ropes. After weighing tho question I came to the conclusion that Nick knows something ‘besides clowning. Sam Jones is one of the best pitch- ers the gamo has ever produced. He has everything, including good fread. There i$ a reason for every ball he pitches. Sam Jones is some thing besides a mere thrower. Jones has. progressed slowly. His tise has been go gradual that it has escaped a lot of the publicity a fel- low gets who has greatness thrust on him over night. Jones is at the top of his game right now. ‘He should be a tough fel- low to beat this season with the New York club backing up his pitching with réal slugging. Carrigan Was [Right The success that Jones has achieved calls to mind a, conversation I* had with Bill Carrigan a number of years ciation netted more money than any amateur benefit production ever giv- en, in the Auditorium, according to officials of the club. Their state- ment, made today, shows total re- ceipts of $1,142.38 and expenses of $665.00,. with some money still to be collected, so that the net receipts probably will be about $500.

SPORT ANGLE | It is beginning to look-as if col- lege athletics are due for a cleanup. The recent articles by Coaches Rockne of Notre Dame and Yost of Michigan on the menace of profes- sionalism stirred up things. Already a number ofs institutions have discovered they have been har- boring professional athletes, accord- ing to the amateur code laid down by the colleges, It is beginning to, look as if the rules governing professionalism were all wrong, Certainly they have caused the athletes to practice de- ceit, Then a majority of the colleges de- cided the honor system, was the thing. After announcing the examination, the professor in charge, would leave the room. The students were placed on their honor. Under such a system cheating in the classroom is a rarity. The eligibility rules of most of the colleges as to their athletes, are like the old-time examinations. Every. rule ties the athlete up closely. It places,a premium on cheating. A lot of the’ athletes are fooling the profes- “St. Paul, Feb, 21—A new athletic conference was formed: here yesterday. by representatives of -seven mid- western universities and dlleges, who invited three other institutions t¢ join the new circuit. wae The North Central intercollegiate Conference—the “‘N.

He feels certain that it will be a much easier matter for him to make the featherweight limit than Kil- bane. Here is the way”Dundee sums up his ambitions: in: the fight game. There is a lot of logic in his argu- ment: “The junior. lightweight title is too new to carry any prestige. For years I have been giving-away from five to ten pounds and’ getting no credit for it. “The teatherweight is a recognized article. It carries with. it prestige and big purses...

For”my part Bryan Dow- ney is the champion, ‘despite the fact that Johnny Wilson is generally rec- ognized as the titleholder. If ever a fighter was knocked out, Wilson was that individual in his bout with Dow- ney at Cleveland. He took the count not once but three times. 8 Wilson isn't taking any chances on meeting anybody.
