Everything is Walter Johnson since

the close of the big league baseball
season. Johnson's record and picture

is flashed here and theronnd his wdn-
dertnl pitching ability and victories
_ are described by baseball writers all
over the country and abroad. But how
about Key Collins, the youngsouthpnw

who pitched for Boston?

'Rny Collins proved himself Walter
Johnson’s most formidable opponent

‘ inst season. Collins opposed Johnson
on four‘dii’i'crent occasions and got an
even break in victories with him. In~
cidenially, he had the distinction and
satisfaction of scoring two shut-outs
over the league's greatest pitcher.

The first time the two pitchers'hooh-
ed up. April 23, Johnson won an easy
rvlctcr‘y. the score being 6 to 0. John-
son allowed but two hits, walked two

and struck out seven. while Collins
netted twelve hits. walked none, but
struck out three. ‘

May 30 the pair clashed again, Cot-
lins winning 1 to 0. This run was the
result of a home-run drive 'by Hooper,
9‘“ first man to face Johnson. The
hits were four and eightin favor of
Collins;

July 3 Johnson pitched a remarkw
his game against Collins at Boston.
which he won 1 to 0. The struggle
went fifteen innings. Johnson was hit
unusually hard in this game. but was
an enigma in the pinches and finally
got the one run he needed in the fit-
teenih inning, which ended the strug-
gle. . ,

The next time Johnson and Collins
met the victory went to the latter. It
"was a most remarkable pitching exhi-
bitlon. in which Johnson led. but lost.
.33 allowedbut one man to reach first
base during, the first ten innings.
Yerkes getting aslngle in the third
inning. Boston did not reach the bags
again until the eleventh round. when
a hit by Yerkes, which Milan allowed
to slip through his legs. sending York-
on to third was followed oy a hit by
‘(larrigan which allowed Yerkes to
score.

Johnson never gave a better exhibi-
tion of pitching in his entire career
than in this game. He allowed but
three hits in the eleven innings. As
was said before. in the first ten in-
nings only one man reached the bases.

if Collins had been as effective
against all teams as he proved against
the Nationals last season he would
have been among the loading pitchers.
his was one of the few twirlers in the
league who always gave Johnson a
iiuitlic. and the only one who pitched
four games against the star and se-
cured an oven break.

Pennsylvania and Cornell Meet-
ing on the Franklin Field—m
‘ Other Games ~-

N FEW YORK. Nov. Eli—The old cus-
tom of playing the final game of the
football season of Thanksgiving Day
is still adhered to by a few of the
Eastern colleges, and as a result, SUV-t
eral inter»'varsity contests are solid;
duled for tomorrow. The feature‘game
is the meeting of Pennsylvania and
Philadel-
phia. These universities are old ri-
vals and the result is awaited with in-
terest by the undergraduates and
alumni. _

Both Cornell and Pennsylvania have
been defeated or hold to lie games
several times, yet the success of their
seasons will hinge. to a certain de-
gree. upon the outcome of the final
contest of the schedule. To date the
annual series has beeii‘overwhoiming-
ly in favor of Pennsylvania. for in the
twenty games played since 1893 Cor~
nell has won but one game and tied
one. in 1901 the Red and White ran
up a 23 to 6 Victory and in 1906 the
teams played a scoreless tie.

As a result of postnand present sca-
son showings the Quilters are favored
to continue the annual triumph over
Cornell, although it is conceded that.
the game will be close and hard
fought. In the 2913 schedules Penn-
sylvania and Cornell have had three
teams as ‘nrutuol opponents. and m
every case the Quakers have made a
better record against that particular,
eleven than Cornell. Carllsle defeat
mi Cornell 7 to o and was held to a 7
to 7 tie by Pennsylvania. Lafayette
lost to Cornell. 10 to 3. and Pennsyl-
vania 10 to 0. Michigan played both
teams on succeeding Saturdays. dc-
feaiing the Quakers 13 to 0. and the
ithacans 17 to 0. It is noticeable that
the difference in scores never exceed
ed seven points. and this combined
with the fact that one or two of the
star players of the Pennsylvania and
ldgrneil clevens will not enter the
game, or at best will be unable to
play for any extended lentil of time.
has utilised the prediction that the
twenty-first contest between the two
universities will be in doubt until the
final whistle.

Next in importance to the Pennsyl-
lvaniaCol-neli game is lheoontest be-
tween the Corinne lndians and Brown
at Providence. lBrown, with a team
considerably below the standard set
by preceding eleven» at the Provi-
dence University. Is not likely to do
more than hold the red men in rear
unable check. Neither in defense nor
offense has the «Brown team shown
football of the calibre played by Car-
iislo. The one mutual opponent, Poun-
uylvanio. defeated Brown 28 to .0’ as
against the 7 to 7 lie with Carlielo.
Other games scheduled in East and
flood: include Pennsylvania State.

and McVey has been eliminated.

Those two divisions which have”
produced some of the greatest boxers
in boxing history, the middleweight
and welterweight classes, are without
title holders. There are several claim"
ants in the middleweight division, but;
it would be sacrilege to mention any

Napoleon Laiolo says that young
baseball players pay too much atten-
tion to developing speed «without giv-
ing a thought to what he considers
the most Important asset in on south
lag recruit. mole says a perfect pair
of eyes can do more to make a player
successful than any other adjunct.
Plenty of derive. intelligence and
strength enter into it. but the largest
item is good eyesight.

The veteran star says that when he
first began to play professionally he
shunned chances to read at night or
on fast moving trains. Mole recalls
several players of great promise who
were inveterate readers. One by one
they lost their batting yowors and
dropped out of the big leagues. Le-

Rickey went on to explain himself
