Schultz Cost $75, 900

Even after the depression set
in, he was still handing it out
to those caught in the squeeze
before he waS-but toward the
end he was eternally asking his
auditor how the check stubs
read.
In a recent spring, a man.
ager and coach of the Browns
didn't draw any salary until
nearly July. The Browns weren't
making it and payments in
other channels were slow to ar
rive.
Fred Schultz, the Washington
center fielder, was one of the
luxurieS Phil Ball went for when
money was like matches to him.
The story goes that the Flying
Dutchman set back Ball $75,-
600 but the gate receipts at st.
Louis will show Fred drew no
small percentage of that
amount through the turnstiles.
And when Schultz finally got
to be an asset, it was in Wash
lngton'S uniform, not that Of st.
Louis.
Probably no club owner Of re-
cent times experimental more
with managers to less avail. Ball
didn't live to see how his latest
experiment might turn out-he
having acquired Rogers Hornsby
in midseason last summer to
take a fling at the thankless-
from a pennant standpoint
job Of managing Missouri's yell
low dog of baseball. the st.
Louis Browns.
A great guy, that Ball, and
little known. A hard fighter,
but a softy at heart, as his
friends will attest.

A whole nation Will be guessing
with us. The day ought to be
known as long-shot Saturday.
The ranking games Of the after.
noon, as I see it, are California
versus Southern California, Ford
ham versus Alabama, Yale versus
Army, Chicago versus Michigan,
Notre Dame versus Pittsburgh and
Minnesota versus Iowa-Six, in all,
and half Of them are sheer
gueSSeS.
There are perhaps as many as
Is more that do not quite make
the first group ahd at least a
dozen Of these can't be tabled.
They can't even be surmised. All
you can do is take your choice
and then spend the rest of the
day in prayer and mediation.
Reverting to the big six quoted
above, the "guess games" are Ford
ham and Alabama, Yale and the
Army, ahd Minnesota against
Iowa. There is no possible line
through the first pair, the only
thing known about them being
that they are great teams from
two distinct and widely separated
sections.
Eastern Champs
Yale and the Army will do bet
ter than that. They might even
decide the championship Of the
East UP there in New Haven's
bowl. like Yale because the
Army can't stop a passing attack
with q butterfly net.
The California and U. S. c.
meeting might, in the same way
produce the coming champion ot
the Coast. The coming champion
of the Coast is without doubt U. S
C. to win, not in spite of its score
less tie with Oregon State last
week but because of this. A good
team always comes back off q
game like that and, if you think
Southern California isn't good, you
have a collar full of dandruff.
Chicago and Michigan on one
hand and Minnesota and Iowa
on the other, furnish most Of the
championship drama Of the Big
Ten this time, although Purdue,
also mbeaten. is playing Wiscon-
sin. However, Purdue can hardly
blow this one and Michigan
might. It is, nevertheless, my
opinion that Michigan won't.

SH|KAT'S : CLASS.
CHECKS OLSEN

Class always asserts itself and
wrestling fans who wended their
way to the washington Audito-
rum last night were well con-
vinced of this today.
Young Cliff Olsen attempted
to pin the shoulders of the skill
full Dick Shikat to the mat, and
approximately 5000 spectators en-
couraged his endeavors, but
Olsen needed more than encour-
agement to topple the masterful
German.
The Swedish grappler gave
Shikat a spirited battle for so
minutes, but then Shikat's su-
perior ability became evident.
Weakened by his great stand,
Olsen fell prey to Shikat's Thor
hammer blows and the German
capped everything with a body
slam that left Olsen flat on the
canvas.
DR.. Karl Sarpolis forgot his
dignity and portrayed a tigerish
role in throwing Andres CaStanoS,
Spanish heavy, in A minutes
with a flying scissors. Paul Boesch
extinguished Tom Alley, Austria
liam, in Is minutes with a flying
tackle. Casey Berger and Karl
Davis went 80 minutes to a draw
in a match that resembled an
old-time braWl. Orville Brown
and Henry Piers also wrestled to
q Commute draw.

True. the jockey club has Of
Tered a reward of $500 for the
arrest and conviction of a sponger
but this is but a pitiful gesture
Tor nobody but an insider is ever
likely to know sponger and he's
not likely to risk his health for
q mere $500, especially when he
could get more from the sponging
outfit to keep his mouth shut.
The only suggestion the Jockey
club has to offer for protection of
horses, horse owners and the ever
gullible public is for every individ-
ual track to hire more policemen.
One for Every Barn
How many? Well, one for every
barn at the track.
Would that stop it? Probably
not, but 1t might make it harder
for the spongers and needlers. Or
the stable owners themselves
might hire extra guards.
But who's going to watch the
owners? OF, if any owners were
found guilty OF such an Infamous
practice they would be ruled off
the turf. But we'd have to have
proof and proof is almost impos-
SibIe to get.
Then, nothing can be done and
sponging and doping must go on?
Wen. no-o-o. we wouldn't go so far
% to say that.
The reader may gather from all
this that Sponging and doping will
continue so long as crooks infest
the turf and since the powers that
be confess themselves impotent to
handle the situation, it is appar.

Fight Hurt Health

Johnson's failing health was
not deferred by the criticisms of
the Old Roman, Comiskey, and
with friends like Mr.. Ball and
Clark Griffith standing at his
side, johnson would have been
IN the saddle as long as his
physical condition permitted.
So it was really Comiskey's
aggravating of Johnson's health
that in the end got Ban out,
rather than anything that Com
iskey did directly to eliminate
the first president the league
had.
Probably no chapter Of sport
Of any type in America boasts
o better sportsman than the
late Phil Ball, who spent three
million dollars on the Browns
and got nothing much more
than headaches therefor. He
was still in there trying when
death terminated his efforts.
Yes, Phil Ball was taking his
time at bat every year for nearly
two decades and he only got on
base once, that being when the
Browns finished second back in
1922.
The man made and spent sev.

Pick Ups and

Dave Young, fullback Of the
William-Mary eleven, which
tackles Georgetown tomorrow
afternoon in the Clark Griffith

1t was something like IL years
ago when West Virginia Wes-
leyan and George Washington
last clashed Bryan Morse,
then the coach of the COlOnialS,
sadly remembers that debacle
at BuckhannOn, w. Va, the
Bobcats rolling up . 1O7-tO-O

1ereuCeS.
Hereafter, the ColoniaIs will
meet fOemen on the basis Of
respective institutional require
ments, with only the universal
rule-the residence rule-in
vogue.
The residence rule calls for q
student to be in school year
before he is eligible to play var
sity.
Just what will happen tonight
remains to be seen. West Virginia
Wesleyan, with the happy or u1-
happy faculty depending on your
point of view) of winning games
it is supposed to lose, is pointed
to the minute for this G. w. con-
test. II the Colonials are over
confident, which seems unlikely
G. w. is in for a tough night OF 1t.
The ColonialS are now very
much in the national limelight, by
virtue Of that sensational victory
over Auburn. Naturally, the tie
against Clemson hurts, but most
critics are inclined to throw that
game out as meaning very little.
Those who throw out the Glenn
son game as only indicative OF a
sporting gesture by G. w. ath.
letics authorities, figure G.. w. at
the top of the Eastern heap with
Holy Cross, Dartmouth, Princeton
and Fordham. It is inconceivable
that G. w. will take a chance Of
losing that rating in tonight's
fracas by fiddling around with
untried combinations.
CE-E XII GIANTS
Cebe Ross, who coaches Wes-
leyan, IS a giant killer. No coach
in this " can bring team
to top form quickec and with
more certainty than Cebe. Wes-
leyan's lads know their Cebe, and
Cebe knows his Wesleyan lads.
Both want to win this game 70
night. G.. WIS Colonials will do
we'll to be on their mettle-to be
mentally right, as well as physio-
ally.
At the moment, G. w. is han
dicapped by injuries. Johnny
Baker, however, is not injured.
When Johnny Is o. K, G. w. iS
o. K.
Baker is just about the balance
wheel of the whole G. w. ma
chine, which is another way Of
saying that, without Baker, G. w.
is not first-flight combination.
with all due respect to that G. w.
line and those running, plunging,
passing backs.
G, w. NEEDS BAKER
There is not in all America a
man so required by his team as
Baker is required by G. w. Incl
dentally, Johnny Baker is Of ALL
America caliber, if for no other
reason than that he is a field
general Of remarkable ability. He
is far, far from a slouch as q
mechanical player.
Wesleyan will give G.. w. a bat.
tie. Make no mistake about thatl
To forecast that Wesleyan will
win is foolish, for G. w. ShoulS

particular trouble. But, tonight.

Percentage Against
Therefore, as the jockey club
admits, if you are placing a bet
on any horse in field of 10, you
have only the following percentage
against you: The difficulty of
picking a winner even if every
thing was on the up and up; the
short odds the boohe gives you:
the jockey; the instructions from
the trainer; the condition of the
horse (sponged or doped); and the
always dubious question Of whether
the stable is leveling.
Outside Of that, beating the
ponies is a cinch.
