KAMM SECURES
SELF AGAINST
POVERTY

Young ball players should save
and invest stheir money, claims
Charley Graham, part owner OF the
San Francisco Seals.
Graham has a pet story which
he tells about Willie Kamm, the
third baseman whom he sold to
the Chicago White Sox for 100000.
"Kamm came into the San Fran
cisco office last year and said he
had some money to invest and
asked my advice" Graham said.
He told me he had $17.5OO saved
from baseball. took him down
to my bank and the banker picked
out standard securities.
"At that time stocks were low
and he obtained them quite bit
under par. After the stocks were
purchased kamm figured out what
his income was and found that he
was getting 81 400 a year.
THAT is more than ] received
a year when l started working, he
said.
But that isn't the best part OF
it. Kamm was twenty-five years
old last year. When he Is thirty
five, by letting his money ride. he
will be worth $50, 900, even II he
does not save another cent. AT
forty-fiv years of age he Will be
worth $4,000. a.
II want every ball player to 10A-
low kamm's plan"

TOSSERS
IN THREE BIC
CONTESTS
By JACK MARTIN.

Just three more games remain
on the big league basketball
schedule that will attract more
than passing interest: The Wash

Washington, and the Marjorie Web
ster-Princcss. The last named will
be played tonight at o'clock on
the Wilson Normal floor, and it is
due to be q real example or

To begin with, the Princess ami
Mar orie Webster girls have been
so evenly matched in the past that
every game lasting over a period Of
two seasons has been won and lost
by a single point. Also, the Web
ster girls, with four defeats against
them, must win tonIght's game to
stay in the running for second
place.
So far, the Washington team has
lost two games, the Princess has
been defeated twice. and the Web
ster girls-having played a greater
percentage of their hard games.
have come out on the small end
OF the score four times.
Now, in order to create a tie for
second place in the cup running,
this must happen: The Webster
girls defeat the Princess sextet to7
night, the MetropoIitans down the
worthy Neutrality-suspicious. tomorrow
night. the Washingtonians lose TO
the Webster girls, and the Prin-
cesses fall before the Washington
team.

illusions regarding the actual out
come. Each of the three games
will be a fight to The finish.
