For two days Lands cross examined

Risberg, face to face with the players
he accused, told his story under oath
that Rowland told him the Detroit-

Thirty-one players paraded to the
witness stand, all denying knowledge
of the plot Gandil upheld Risberg's
confession and elaborated on the de-
tails, admitting he was the fixer and
the collector of. the White Sox pool
But Bill James, the Detroit pitcher
with whom Gandill said he made the
arrangements to throw the series, de-
nounced Gandil's assertion as "an abb
solute lie," and also contradicted him
on the reason for the payment of, the
$3.50 Gandil gave him. He declared it
was a reward to the Tiger pitchers for
beating Boston.
Having invited Risberg to make
public his charges at an open hearing,
Commissioner Lands now must find the
accused players guilty Of throwing the
series, or else innocent. If Lands alb
solves them, as it was generally be-
lieved tonight he will, an iron clad rule

AS collegian he was short

LOBBY RUMOR
AT BROOKHART
is HUSHED Up

WASHINGTON, Jan. 11-(P)-All in
timations that senator-elect Smith w.
Brookhart, republican, Iowa, was a
paid lobbyist" for Cyrus t. Woods,
nominated by president Coolidge to
the interstate commerce commission,
were withdrawn today by Senator
Steck, democrat Iowa.
Appearing before the senate inter-
state commerce committee which was
directed yesterday by the senate to in
ycstigate his charges, Senator Steck
said he had no evidence of any con-
nection whatsoever between Brookhart
and Woods, and withdrew ''any intima-
ton that Mr.. Boorkhart was in the
pay of Mr. Woods"
This cleared up one phase of the
charges made to the senate yesterday
by Senator Steck, but the inquiry into
the other-that there had been pub
lished reports that Brookhart was a
paid lobbyist for farm organizations-
went over until tomorrow. Senator
Steck explained that a newspaper man
had told him that there had been such
publications and had promised him to
furnish the articles in question, but
had failed to do so A search through
newspaper files in the congressional
library was begun by the senator's
secretary, and since it had not been
concluded late in the day the commit
tee adjourned the hearing until tomor-

Found His spot

Then came the break that made
him. Danny Murphy suffered leg
injury that slowed up his infield
play DESTROYS of keeping his hitting
in the lineup, Mack shifted Murphy
to right and sent Collins to second.
From the very start Eddie adapted
himself to the Keystone sack and
his work improved SO rapidly that
Danny Murphy never got back, even
after his leg had mended.
However, the shift worked to
Murphy's advantage because he de-
veloped into quite an outfielder. This
coupled with his ability to rit, kept
him in the majors, no doubt, after
he would have been through as an
infie1der. -
Today we have Collins back with
the ann who developed him, Connie
Mack-and both appear mighty well
pleased at the turn of events.
