CHALLENGER, TO
BE ON EXHIBIT

II there are any motor boatmen
in this vicinity who would like to
know just exactly how an inter-
national challenger is made, they
will have the opportunity this year
for the first time on record, because
G. c. Smith Of Algonac, Mich, de-
signer OF Miss America" the Lib
erty motored American entrant for
the framework international
championship trophy race In Eng
land next August, announces he
will put this wonderful boat on
open display at the National Motor
Boat show in New York Feb. 20

tections against possible copying Of
her lines by outsiders will be left
of entirely and anyone who thinks
he can copy the challenger's lines

I'VE are not going to put on even
the decking" declares Designer
Smith. The boat will rest upon her
cradle, finished except for the deck
ing and a little polishing, and her
Liberty motors will be installed and
ready for action. We believe we
have got the fastest boat In the
world and that the Englishmen will
not be able to compete with us, al
though they have some wonderful
motors developed by the war, one
of which, understand, develops
800 horse power with . weight Of
only about two pounds to the horse

Other famous boats and motors
which will be on exhibit At the ma
tional show this month are the
power plants Of American manu-
facturers which powered the Brit
ish, Italian, French and American
submarine chasers during the late
war. These machines are said to
be marvels of motor refinement and
will no doubt attract q great deal
of attention among American
sportsmen who will attend the

The 18th amendment knocked out
the cent suds and the winning of
the worlds championship by the
Reds last fall converted the hand
me-down ball team into a company
Of prima donnas.

Reds accepted his contract meekly
and without comment. But after

looks as if Secretary Bancroft can't
take in enough gate money to pay
all of them OF, even if he stages
a double header every day.
He'd Eller Must Be Profiteer.
Here's what has happened: Dur
ing the baseball meeting last week.
President Herman and Secretary
Bancroft commented on the situa-
ton, and one learned the Reds of
1920 are demanding only $4,000
more pay than was given to them
last year.
One pitcher, who famed SIX in a
row during the worlds series and
won both games that he pitched,
has decided that his salary should
be boosted from something like
1900 . year to 10000. sAnother
pitcher who hit q couple Of balls
over the fence and tore up things in
general, was more lenient, asking
only about $4,000.
Owner Liable to Go Broke.
No doubt every one will get more
than he got last year. but when il
comes to boosting the pay roll of q
hall club $4,000 in a season the
owner has to act carefully: for il
the boys don't 90 out and win an
other pennant he may find himself
short Of money to pay OF at the

mands Of the Reds, there is likely to

Ruethm Comes TO Terms.


Hermann and Moran are deal
ing with the problem in business
like fashion. and only yesterday
came the announcement that Dutch
Ruether had signed for the coming
season. Ruether is the fellow who
hit a couple of balls to the fences
and wanted a fortune to play in
1920. In some way he has been
induced to sign, so there is hope
that Hermann and Moran will
line up the rest of the champs. 1t

$4,000 to get all the stars in line,
but indications are no one will be
missing when the bell rings.
In the meantime Secretary

William N. Richardson.
By NORMAN E. BROWN.

When William M. Richardson Of
Philadelphia broke into the baseball
limelight by purchasing with Clark
Griffith, the Washington club he
simply added another chapter to an
interesting career. Being base
ball mogul now, Richardson can
break into this little feature.
He began life-as the biographers
say-by getting job as Office boy
in a grain elevator. He served his
time checking cars and "sampling"
grain in railroad yards and in
climbing into the holds Of ocean
liners to look over the grain. When
the first opportunity came along he
became interested financially in the
grain business and now controls
one Of the big grain export COM
panies Of the country. He has
money in other enterprises also.
He's the kind of chap who still
blows down to the office at 5 a. N.
and is greeted by everybody as
Billy" Baseball has been his chief
hobby so it was only natural he
should break into the mogulling
business. He looks good to the
fans who know him.
