--, EPORT6 wafted
westward from
R Philadelphia announce that
Frank Farrell, owner of the New
York Yankees, is negotiating for the
purchase of Mate Collins, the star in
f ielder of the Athletics. If Karrell is
successful In landing Collins from ite
Athleties ha states he will make him
manager of his ill fated club. John
8blbe, secretary and part owner of the
athletics, is quoiea oy eastern spon
writers as saying he is ready to sell
Collins, as Is Connie Mack, providing
they get the purchase price they de-
Had it not been for the statement
made by Shtbe little or no credence
would be given the rumpr, for if Col
lins Is lost to the American league
champions, together with Bender,
Plank and Coombs, it's a good bet that
the tieam will not finish in the first
division next season. Collins led his
team in batting during the past season,
and he is considered one of the greatest
of all second basemen In the major
league
The New York American league team
has proved a losing proposition for
several years and some drastic steps
mufct be taken to strengthen the club.
The attendance showed a marked de
crease during the past season, and if
Farrell can get Collins at any reason
able figure, It's a good wager that he
will grab him for the management, as
with Collins at the helm the Yankees
would no doubt prove a factor In the
pennant race.
For several seasons Collins has been
Connie Mack's chief lieutenant. His
suggestions have proved helpful to
Mack in .turning out winning teams.
Philadelphia, despite its champipn
team, has proved a poor drawing card
at home. Where Eddie Collins draws
one dollar In attendance in Philadel
phia, he will draw ten in the gates of
the New York park if he is made man
ager of the Yanks.
Only Wants INucIeu for New Team.
Connie Mack has been quoted as say
ing that he desires to retain only
enough of his old stars next season for
a nucleus around which to build up a
championship contender from his
young material. This he Is evidently
going to do, judging from his recent
actions in asking waivers on his trio
of old star hurlers and placing Eddie
Collins on the market.
If Frank Farrell could obtain Col
lins, Bender and Plank he will haYe
the start of a pennant contender Of
course it will take a lot of money to
get these three players, but they
would prove big drawing cards for the
lanks, and that club would undoubt
edly get as large crowds at home as
the Giants do when they play on the
Polo grounds.
Jeff Clark Coming Here.
Big Jeff Clark, the "fighting ghost,"
ana his manager, Jimmy Bronson, are
expected to arrive the last of the week
from Joplin, Mo. Clark is one of the
greatest llgtat heavyweight fighters
that ever stepped into a roped arena
and is a. popular local favorite. He
fought Rufe Cameron of San Francisco I
across the river last summer and
knocked him out in the 13th round of
their scheduled 20 round bout. Be-
cently Clark outpointed Sam Langford
at Joplin in a 10 round go.
of the fastest fighters of his weight in
the game.

To individuals and insti
tutions that are experi
enced and have time to
select and manage in
vestments, this is no
problem: but to those
, inexperienced, -wh o s e
time is devoted to other
things, the question
arises, "What is- the
best security and -winch
returns the largest in
come, combining the
maximum of safety and
profit and requiring the
minimum of care and at
tention?"
It k acknowledged by experi
enced investors, both large and
small, that Mortgages are the
safest form of investment and
provide a profitable income
yield. This being determined,
there only remains the selection
of a reliable institution, experi
enced in the Mortgage Business,
from which to purchase this class
of investments.
Our organization, both in the
field and in our offices, experi
enced and thoroughly competent
to select securities and care for
investments, is of the best, and
our years of experience malce it
possible for us to render to the "
investor the most efficient service
obtainable.
Our loans are secured by the
very best improved real estate.

Jimmy Clabby of Hammond. Ind,
conceded by many to be the legitimate
middleweight champion, is soon to visit
El Paso With his manager. Clabby
wrote the writer a letter a few das
ago announcing that he is coming to
El Paso on business and while here will

Goorty of Oshkosh, Wis., or Mike Gib
bons of St. PauL for the championship
Clabby is the rtmn ine maicnmasers
1 would especially like to secure for one
ale. He recently gave George Chip an
awful beating on the coast.
Clabby and -Gibbons would no doubt
prove a big drawing card for a cham
pionship eventi They have met in
three different engagements and the
newspaper decisions give Gibbons a
shade. In St., PauU 1910, Clabby was
awarded the decision over Gibbons. A
few months later they fought a ten
round fight at Milwaukee and the sport
writers gave the event to Clabby.
Later they1 fought 15 rounds at Winni
peg and the press accounts of the event
differed. From that day to this there
has been a much discussed question as
to which of the two middleweights are
the best.
Brickley to Get Into Game.
Telegraphic advices received from
Cambridge indicate that Charles Brick

all kickers, will participate in the an

Brickley will not play the entire game
Neither will he buck the line or do any
tackling In all probabilities he wil
not be sent into the' game until Har
vard has the ball well Into the Yale
territory and needs a score. Then
Brickley will be sent In to boot the
oval between the beams. His toe ought
to prove a potent factor in the strug
