NEW YORK, March 12.-All Jack

himself a fight with Gene Tunney

RiSko before the final bell.
Risko, who was baking bread five

pudgy Clevelander to eliminate
Sharkey from the heavyweight

Many other clubs have had similar
experiences. In a great many cases
the highly touted stars for whom
equally higher figures were paid,
have failed to come up to eXpecta-
tons. Very often some youngster
who cost little or nothing proved a
far bigger help to his club.
Experimenting with young players
in the hope they will add immediate
strength to a major league club is a
gigantic gamble. The percentage of
cases in which the highly-t outed
rookie delivers is greatly in the
minority
The selection of these highly
touted minor league rockies is up
to the scouts. The owners and man
