One day when Hildebrand was warming up with Prank

a slow ball with quite a break on it. This was done by
wetting; the lingers before pitching.
George watched with interest, and saw t lint the ball

Kinney Gels $4000 Salary
FOU a long time the outside world imagined that Connie
Mack was running his ball club on Woolworth salaries
and his men could eat rogulnrlj only when on thv load
and the dub paid all expenses. Ilnweier. this impression
Iris been changed in the last few days when the salary of
Walter Kitinej was announced. Waiter jumped to the
Franklin club and his desertion caused Connie to break
a long silence.
Kinney, who was just an ordinary pitcher, was re
ceiving a salary of $-1(100. He signed for S'.TiOO, but when
tln crowds increased at Shlbe Park and on the road
Connie handed him a SI. "0(1 boost along with several
other on the club. Now Kinney was getting a top-notch
salary, and it is doubtful if he could get as much on any
other team. The magnates nre not opening their purse
strings these days, despite the higher prices of admission.
Another big surprise is the salary of (t cargo Kiirns.
(ieorge Is not playing regularly, but is drawing his .S-PJOO
per season just the same.
"Several managers have been after Hums this year,"
said Connie, "but dropped everything when I told them
how much (ieorge was getting. They wore very much sur
prised nnd said they thought the salary was too much.
Hut I don't think so, for Hums is n great ball player
and should he. in the game regularly. I'lifortiinately,
thole- is no place for him on my club and for that reason
I am willing to trade him. He would 1 elp mo out con
siderably this sea. on if ho were used only as a pinch
hitter, but in justice to the hoy I believe he should be in
a regular line-up. If I could Use him regularly I wouldn't
part with him at any price."

jVTAXY are the xvise persons xho sit
back and orate that It's folly to
attempt to pick xvlnners. Hut there nre
a lot of foolish persons in this world, ns
any bookmnker will assert. What holds
true in horse racing is true in cinder
track racing.
Particularly is it foolish this year to
try to select a team victor in the inter
collegiate track and field championships
at Franklin Field tomorrow and Satur
day. Four teams, Pennsylvania, Prince
ton, Cornell nnd Dartmouth, are so
closely bunched that the slightest break
may swing the meet.
Penn nnd Princeton nre as close as
two fingers in the dope race for the title
and Cornell nnd Dartmouth aren't an I
further away than the thumb
chart you niaj find interesting. It's a
guess with the aid of dope on past per
formances. It's Miro to do one thing
start an argument. According to the
chart Penn will win bv two points fiom
Princeton with Cornell third and Dart
mouth fourth.
Individuals Kasler
When it comes to individual winners
the selection is cash r and not quite as
foolish. There are thirteen individual I
guesses and one should get a few of
them right, anyhow.
If there's anything in dope nt all.
the surest xvinner is Morris Kirkscy. the
I.eland Stanford splinter, who is cicd-

I college golf year for .T. Simpson
I Dean, ruptaln of Princeton's link team.
and if he holds to his present pace he
I ought to make things interesting, you
! might say, in the intercolleglates at
i Nassau next month.
Denn bad a very expert 7" over the
west course at Merlon yesterday, had a
victory over A. L. Walker. Jr.. Inter-
' collegiate champion, in their match with
i Cnlumbin a few weeks ago. and has
been beating the o. 1 man of the op
posing seats of learning with very im
pressive golf.
Hobby .Tones, finalist in the national
amateur last year, is now nt .Georgia
Tech.. which will enter a team in the
intercollegiates, it is haid, and if .Tones
plays, too, be will, of course, be the
favorite to win.
Hut Denn is said to be of the same
"golf school" as Hobby that is. he
learnt his game from Stewart Maiden,
who taught Mis Alexa Stirling, nn-
tinnal champion; .loncs and Perry!
Adair. i
Dean is a six-footer, of athletic,
build, and hits the hall he gets "hold j
of" just about as far as it xvlll go. He
has a world of confidence in his shots,
which is nlways a certain percentage
of the battle. lie keeps tabs on the
few shots he misses and takes a seeming
nlea-ure in playing thnt shot again at i
the first opportunity to prove to him- I
self that he can make it.
To make it short, Dean plays a par
ticularly effective wooden shot, as well
as a powerful niidiroii, while his ap
proaching is always up there for putts
which he can generally hink.
