BILLY MISK LOSES UGH Billy Miske, the light-heavyweight fighter, is reported as having lost his entire fortune of $35,000 in an auto mobile venture.

EDDIE STILL LEADS RACE In picking an All-American base- ball team, there is one position that stands out as easy to decide on, second base. Eddie Collins is still the premier at that position, despite over a dozen years of campaigning. Some give Rogers Hornsby the pref- erence over Collins, but it isn't based on sound reasoning. Only at the bat is Hornsby superior to Col- lins, and then only by a slight margin. In a pinch, Collins is just as dangerous as Hornsby at the plate. YALE GRIDDER IS BALL STAR Captain Aldrich of the Yale foot- ball team in one of the greatest col- lege ball players in the Bast. It in said that he is one of the few col- lege bal] players who could jump into the big show and make good from the start, a la George Sisler, It is understood that Aldrich already has received six offers from major league clubs. However, the chance of his turning professional is very slim. SMALL HURLERS EXCEL GIANTS Clark Griffith says that few pitch ers who measure better than six feet are worth while.

O'Doul led the Coaat pitchers thin year and he aiso tarned in some good hitting. Besides these accomplishments be is one of the speediest runners in the league.
