EXPEDITION TO CO
ON TREASURE HUNT

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 21.-U
.P)-Cocos Island, of Robert Louis
Stevenson fame, said to be the store
house of pirates, is again to be the
scene of n treasure hunt.
Two years ago an expedition was
started here to comb the island and
find the supposed buried loot The
expedition was never finishcd--it just
died for lack of inertia.
The latest promotion of Cocos Is
land is not in the form of Il search
for buried treasure. 1t is an aEri-
cultural scheme.
From $400 to $1,000 an acre can
be cleared annually on the 5000
acres of the island, the promoters
declare. incidentally they mention
that perhaps some settler may find
the trcasure-who knows?
fl NJ. Pitman, of san Francisco
is president of the corporation which
is to settle the island-maybe. Shares
are being sold at $1OOO--1O percent
down. This entities the holder to Il
cooperative interest in the products
of the island.
There are no products on the is
land now. 1t is covered with thick
Jungle.
The island which is under the flag
of Porto Rico, is said to be owned by
August Gisslcr. q German. Gissler
has lived on the island for 80 years,
but has not found the treasure. He
is said to be planning selling out to
he san Francisco syndicate.

should be an improvement over the
1922 aggregation, which made cred
table showing despite the fact it fin
ished in fifth place.
Fourteen pitchers on the Cubs ros-
ter will strive for permanent positions.
OF these, only one. Grover Alexander,
is veteran. Although handicapped
part of the season of 1922 because of
lame arm, he still has considerable
pitching prowess Four are south
paws.
The Cubs are believed to have ac-
quired star players in George Grant
ham and r. b. Barrett, who will con-
test with ten other men signed up for
infield positions.
Charley Hollocher, rated as one of
the best shortstops in the majors,
should have no trouble winning his
regular berth, but Ray Gribes, one Of
the leading first bascmen i'll the league
in 1922, and an excellent batter, may
find some stiff competition among the
other young men.
Other candidates for infield berths
include johnny Kelleher, and Joe
klugmann, who returns from Atlanta.
Bernie De Veveriros also comes back
for another trial. Ten men are slat-
ed to battle for outfield berths The
catching department should show to
greater advantage in 1923. as BOB
O'Farrell has developed into one of
the best backstops in the league. He
probably win be the first string re-
ceiver, but will find some strong
oor7pctition in Wirts and Leo Hart
