The result of the first game breaks the three-cor- nered tie for first place in the Casper Basketball league and leaves the Pearl Whites and Methodists the occupants of the top rung of the ladder. Led by Fredericks, their scoring ace, who dropped in eight baskets, the Telephones played great basket- pall. The game was a battleall the way with neither team ever having a safe lead. McLain at forward and Mahnkin at guard were important cogs in the fwinners' play which yas characterized by accurate shoot- ing, close guarding and concerted teamwork. The Standards were off their old time form and do not look as strong as earller in the season. They could hot get going last night and only the individual work of Rynalski and Kidd kept them in the running. Earl Sheldon, tho three-year-old mascot of the Telephones, again led the team on the floor.

EDDIE COLLINS fo OPTIMISTIC FOR WnITE SOX Chicago May Be “Dark Horse” of American League Race. CHICAGO, Feb. 4.—(By The As sociated Press.)\—A first division club and possibly a pennant contend- er is the aim of Eddie Collins, new manager |of the Chicago American league team. If enthusiasm and dope are any criterion, the White Sox may prove to be the “dark horse” in the 1925 pennant drive. Collins declares the club will “finish where it belongs.” Four of the recent American league pennant winners were piloted by first year managers. Collins is pleased with his club and is depending upon two men, Pitcher Ted Blankenship and Out fielder Johnny Mostil. With Falk and Hooper occupying the other out field berths, the new pilot believes his troubles there have been solved. He also has Archdeacon and Elsh DEUCHT as substitute fly catchers, The shortstop position, the weak. est spot on the club last season, seems to be well cared by with Ike Davis, former Columbus American association player. Collins believes he has a strong line of substitutes. There are four left-handed pitch- ers on the roster and Collins 1s hope- ful of developing one who will be able to take his turn with the right handers, ‘The southpaws are Mike Cvengros, Foreman, Davenport and Ash. The right handers on the ros- ter are Faber, Thurston, Robertson, Connally, Lyons, Blankenship, Lev- erette?’ Mangum and Steengraafe. Wille Kamm, $100,000 Coast league third baseman who suffered a slump in his batting season, is ex- pected to command at the hot cor- ner. Earl Sheely will return to the initial sack. Collins will return to the keystone sack. Ray Schalk and Clyde Crouse will probably do the bulk of the catch- ing. Billy Lauder, former baseball coach, has been signed as ccach and assistant to Collins, The club, as a whole, will take on a college atmosphere. In. addl tion to the collegiate coach and manager Collins, there are five or more men with universit¥ experl- ence, These tnclude Charley Robert son, Bib Falk, “Red” Faber, Harry Hooper, from California, and Ted Lyons.

THEY acess ma HUGGINS COUNTS ON VMN URBAN SHOCKER TO JOE HAY MY TURN IN VICTORIES BY HENRY L. FARRELL (United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—(United Press)—New York's chances in the approaching American League pen- nant race depend largely upon the gamble the Yankee pwners made in getting Urban Shocker back from the St. Louts Browns. George Sissler and the owners of the St. Louis club insist that they got all the better of the deal when they secured Joe Bush, Gaston amt another rookie pitcher from the Yankees in exchange for Shocker. They contend that Bush has just as much good pitching in him as Shocker; that Bush will be more contented In St. Louis than Shocker was and that he will be invaluable as a utility outfielder and a pinch hitter, Gaston, they figure, {s one of the most promising young pltch- ers in the American League. New York Officials, although the fans are not unanimously in agree- ment with them, contend that Shocker will strengthen the team and that the Yankees did not have to weaken another department to get n badly neéded pitcher with exper. fence, Shocker is expected to win twenty games or more for the Yankees and most any trade that could bring with it the promise of twenty games is not considered by the Yankees as a dangerous gamble. Col. Jake Ruppert, owner of the former American League champions believes that Shocker will win at least twenty games and that many of his victories will be turned in against the pennant contending clubs, », “For years,” Ruppert said, “TI have considered Shocker to be the greatest pitcher in ‘the American League. He has done valuable work with g team that has been only fair. Ve all know what it ‘!s to play for years through the swelter- ing hot summers in St. Louis, Shocker is regarded by Ruppert BERLENBACH-FLOWERS BATTLE MAY NOT BE STAGED AS EXPECTED By FAIR PLAY, (Copyright, 1925, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Feb. 4.—There is talk that Paul Berlenbach and Tiger Flowers have not yet definitely agreed to meet next month. The fault is said to lle with Paul’s mag: s for Flowers, if he is not gving » himself, then he has decided to stop being a fighter and to make an end man’s specialty out of his act. Against Ted Moore in Newark, the Tiger on Monday night slapped Eng- lishman good and plenty for two rounds just to let him know that it would not pay him to get gay and thereafter he tapped and pulled his punches throughout the remainder of the 12 rounds—or, at least, ap- peared to—while Moore hung his right on Flowers’ jaw enough times to have knocked out a dozen cullud persone if thre had been any amount of T. N. T, back of them, In the twelfth round, while the fans—not very many of them—who had come to the Newark armory ex- pecting to see murder, whistled and laughed, the Tiger shadow-boxed around his opponent and larded hardly a blow When the bell rang for the end of the fight, he pulled a side-split- ting fake knockout, doing a st fall and then bounding to his f and throwing his arms about Ted's shoulders in @ manner of brotherly affection. It was a pleasant evening al! around. Flowers, in the second round, opened up an old cut on Moore's face .and throughout the battle his handlers could not staunch the flow. There was nothing seri- ous about it and it did not im to bother the Englishman to any ex- tent. Moore's manager admitted his man needed @ rest and said he was going to get it. After which he was ned up to meet Mickey Walker and Harry Greb. These bouts are in the making for outdoors. pea dra ~<a ay “Meet me at the Smokehouse,” as the greatest money pitcher in baseball. “I'd like to have been in the box if we were playing for the Yankee ‘Stadium. He’ that good when the most depends upon him.” Some New York fans, who aro not fond of Miller Hugzins, said that the Browns sneaked up from behind and clipped him when they put over the deal. Bush was very popular here and they figured that he had just as much good baseball left in him as Shocker has and that he is a much better team-player than the tempermental Shocker. No matter what Huggins does, he will be criticised by certain of the New York fans. Although he could point to a number of fine players, including the Rajah Hornsby, who started under him when he was lead- ing the St. Louis Cardinals, it has always been contended here that Huggins had to get players ready made and that he could never make 8 go of a job with a club that wasn't stoop-shouldered with cash. doh caphelaw 258 CAGE TOURNEY TO BE STAGED AT GILLETTE Under the auspices of the Gillette Lions club the first intersectional high school basketball tournament ever held dn Wyoming wil be staged at Gillette February 27 and 28.
