That c. w. Somers. owner Of the
Mars. considers Joe Jackson worth
fortune to his club is evidenced by the
proposed intention of sending the ex-
Pelican slugger through a Cleveland
college at the finish of the present sea-
son.
Thes action of Somers is probably
+ha first of its kind to be recorded
in baseball. In almost every other in
stance the big league magnate pays
the salary demanded and allows the
nIaver to take care of himself. This,
however, is not to occur at Cleveland,
as Somers has completed arrange
ments to educate the former Pelican.

CALIFORNIA BALL PLAYERS IN BIG

New York, June sO.-California is
noted for it's big trees, fine climate and
gold, also hardly a wear goes by that
the racine coast does not turn loose a
crop OF ball players to the big leagues
who make good. In fact very few of
them are turned back. What is more.
! the Californians who are shipped to
the big leagues get in the limelight
right off the bat. They seem to de-

jackson. When a ball player has fin-
ished his career he must do something
for a livelihood"
Frank says Jackson's work in the
American league is not a surprise to
him. All of this stuff you hear from
So called experts regarding a man not
being able to make good isn't worth
the paper it is written on. If there
was a more confident person in base
ball than ! last year as to jackson
making good, l don't know whom ne
was" remarkable Frank.
The action of Somers to give Jack
son an education is a result Of the
Cleveland magnate spending fortune
to get a winning team for Nap fans,
but has failed year after year. Somers
probably realizes that If he spends
few hundred dollars educating the ex-
Pelican he will have a ball player that,
barring accidents, should last for the
next six or seven years to say the
least.
Charley Frank says it is only going
to be a question of time before Jack
son will develop into the best outheId-
er in the business, for all that is need
! ed is some intelligence, and that may
1 be supplied by the Cleveland tutors
which Jackson is to have.-NeW Or-

Judson c. Clement Of Georgia is
Elected Chairman Today, Re-
publican Members vot-
ing for Him
EXERIS POWERFUL INFLUENCE
Has Been Very Successful In Work On
Board and No Decision of His Has
Ever Been Reversed by
High Court.

Washington. ID. c., Jan. 13.-Judson
G.. Clemens, of Georgia, was elected
chairman of the Interstate Commerce
Commission at a special conference of
the commission today. Clements is
the senior member OF the commission
and a Democrat.
While the Interstate Commerce COM
mission is composed of four Repubi-
cans and three Democrats at present,
it has been the uniform policy of the
commission since its creation to elect
it's senior member as chairman entirely
irrespective of his political affiliations.
The chairman exerts a powerful in
luence upon the operations of the
commission. Clements is regarded as
one of the conservatives of the COM
mission, although for many years he
has advocated vigorously adequate su-
pervision and control by the govern
ment of the operations OF common
carriers. No decision Of his ever has
been reversed on its substantial mer-
its by the supreme court.
