HIS CHECK
Eddie Collins Worth Every
Cent SOx Pay Him.
He Is the Backbone of New
Worlds Champions.
BY JACK XEIOCK.

New York, Oct. 26.-Eddie Collins
gets $50 a year for playing with
the White Sox. Eddie is worth every
cent of it.
He is the star around which Clar-
ence Rowland's worlds champions
have been built. and he stood out in
bold relief above all other players in
the worlds series this year.
When Comiskey planked down
$4,000 for the former Columbia stu
dent in 1914 he knew what kind OF
a ball player he was getting 1t was
no gamble with Commy, and he was
willing to pay the price. big as it was,
for that year he determined to build
club that would bring worlds title
to the Windy City, and he has sue
ceeded admirably well.
Rudder of Team.
When Commy got Collins he got
the kingpin around which the White
gox are built without him in the
lineup the Sox would be like a big
ocean liner without her rudder. They
would plunge along III no particular
direction.
Collins is the lad who holds the
Cox in the course. His presence on
the infield leads confidence and dash
to the rest of the players and his quick
brain does the rest.
Eddie was the brightest star of the
recent series with the Giants. He hit
.409 and fielded perfectly in the six
months. He made some wonderful
stops that cut off hits when hit
might have turned the tide of battle,
and he did it all in the matter Of fact
way that marks him as a wonderful
player.
Collins shared the glory of victory
with Red Faber and his team mates
but his light couldn't be hidden for u
single moment because he did things
out there in the battlefield and did
them at the right time.
Has Good Nerve.
To an unbiased onlooker it seemed
unfair that the fans of New York
should boob Collins when he came to
the plate. He was made a target for
the disappointed Giant fans, but the
fact that they were ION him. did not
bother him for a moment, nor did it
affect his playing.
Collins's GOODNESS under fire was a
vivid contrast to the way some of the
other players took their medicine, and
it reflected itself in the playing of the
whole White Sox infield. In the last
game Heinie Zimmerman hit a fast
bounder to Collins in the sixth inning
with no one out and refused to even
run it out. This is an evidence of how
