Also after one’s powers have reached the peak more is expert ed of him than the fellow who ix just a comer, The same critics, who a few days ago pegged Jack peey as & superman and wi table, are now jazzing a different mel- ody. They are calling the champion, who delayed his knockout of Bill Brennan until the 12th round, an ordinary guy. But too much was expected of a fighter who has not been work- ing at his trade regularly, If he was ever a superman it was after he had flattened Wil- lard. . His tiger instinct, developed so highly while he was earning his right to fight the champton, has lain In state since then. In any business where skill is involved unless one keeps pag. ging away at it the muscles fail to coordinate with the nerve cen- ters, the eye loses its cunning, the heart gets out of step—the punch lacks its steam, But Dempsey is wise enough to know all this, - “Give me more work. 1 will fight any man in the world.” Those are his words. After Willard he wants Wills, Car gad is already on his calling ist.

On August 28, 1905, Cobb came to Detroit from Augusta, The price paid for the Georgia Jewel was $700 Few investments pay as big a divt dende as this one, COST OF JUDGING Ranking man in baseball from the salary angle is Judge Kenesaw Moun tain Landis, the one-man baseball commission, His cut on the box of- fice bank roll is $42,500, with $10,000 extra for traveling expenses, The judge still retains his seat on the bench, for which he gets $7,500 yearly, boosting his pay envelope to $50,000. Tris Speaker, the onty other play- ing manager in thé big leagues, is said to have drawn $20,000 for hin work in 1920, Since winning a world championship for the Indians, the figures in his yearly check probably will be substantially raised. BABE'S PIN MONEY Rabe Ruth gets a mary of $20,000 from the New York Yankees for his prowess ae a homerun hitter. He is worth more, But the salary which the Bee owners pay their star is mere pin money to what he has made in side lines by capitalizing bis reputation as a homerun hitter. A movie company gave him a flat $50,000. Exhibition games in the Fast and in Cuba have netted him over $28,000, Profit from the Babe Ruth cigar will add another $5,000. His life story sold for $3,000. Bonuses for indorsing articles brought him an- other lump of $3,000.
