Basketball on At
Central Union

Central Union will open up the
basketball season tomorrow after
noon when three games will be
played against the strong Imperial
high school aggregation, in that
city.
The games will be played between
the lights, heavies and girls teams.
Central is somewhat handicapped by
not having veterans on any OF its
three teams, and the fact that I'M
perial, because it doesn t play foot
hall, has had the benefit of prac-
ticc since last September.
Central's "heavy' or varsity
team will line up: Busby, Miller and
Reade. centers; Foss, Davis, Coates,
Valusek and Sharpe, forwards;
Briggs, Hickcox, Flanagin and Holl-
brook, guards. Spence, who was a
substitute last year, and looked
upon as one Of the best prospects
for this year, is i'll and will not be
able to play.
The "light' team will line up,
Armour, center; Watson, Hockett
and Hobby, forwards; Wynn, Ar
rando, guards. McIver, star for
ward for the eighties, struck a
snag in his studies and will be in
eligible to play for a while.
The games will start at LAO and
a large attendance is hoped for.

close to $1,O00,00O. His guarantee
is $450,000 and he will receive sc
percent of all the gate receipts after
$1,O00,00O has been collected.
In perfect English-perhaps q

A half dozen persons who arc al

testimony Of Arnold "Chick' Gan

Bill James, one time Detroit Tiger
pitcher.
Gandil, according to the 26 play
crs who were heard Wednesday,
paid James something like $ll0O in
September 1917. According to the
% players, the $l100 was bonus
for good work done by the Detroit
pitchers. who whipped Boston and
helped the White Sox maintain Il
lead in the American League.
According to Risberg the sum was
a bribe for the Detroit team to clay
down. to the Chicago team and 10
allow the pale hose to win the

The weight of testimony has
shown that there was money collect
