Alan J.Gould You see his name rarely In the box scores any more, but Eddie Col lins, kintr-pin of second baseman when the Old Athletics were win ning world's championships. Is. a vital cog In the New A's. As staff aide to General Connie Mace, uoi- 11ns takes over a good deal of the detail work. Brought up from his 'college days In the Mack school of thought, Eddie Is a keen strategist himself, a quick-thinker with the same Intuition that Ty Cobb pos sessed for doing the right thing. Now that Cobb has retired, Col lins, In his twenty-second consecu tive year In the majors, has the longest continuous service, record of any player still in uniform. Recently I asked Collins the se cret of Mack's ability to maintain so keen a grasp of baseball's swift moving affairs after so long a term as manager and at an age when most elderly gentlemen prefer ease or golf to directing an exciting ball game from a hard, hot bench. "You know, It never ceases to amaze me the real enthusiasm that Mr. Mack retains," replied Ed die. "Of course he has forgotten more about the game than most of us will ever know, yet he retains the memory or everything essential, The style of play has changed but Mr. Mack has kept up with It. , have never seen anyone so consist ently keen In sizing up situations and plays, so able in handling variety of players, many of them temperamental it Is almost un canny to me." "The club this year Is working Its head off for one man Connie Mack. Of course we all like, to be with a winner but to a man the A's think more of - winning this pen nant for Mr. Mack than they do for any extra money or glory they may get out ox it. ' ' Like many veterans, Eddie Collins regrets the way the free-hitting era of baseball has ruined most of the old "inside stuff." "I don't say we were any smarter tn the old days but the game of 15 to 20 years ago certainly put more premium on fast-thinking and quick action than nowadays," he remarked "A big nock ol runs now can knock the best-prepared piece of strategy an over the field. "I think the reason for a lot of the hitting Is lack ef confidence among many pitchers after they have been battered up. You know, pitching Is 60 per cent confidence. any way, with around 30 per cent for ability and 20 per cent for the FINE FLAVORS BRING JOY TO EATING Sugar Is the Greatest Condi- mental Food in the World Flavor I How much that means to all growing children and to all adults who enjoy their meals. What delight flavor brings to the palate. What tatitfactifin to a iadea appe tite. And what flavor surpasses the unique sweetness of sugar! The sentences shove were not spoken, ss might be supposed, by a great chef or even by a successful woman cook. They are the words of an eminent scientist, spoken while he was discussing the subject of sugar and diet. Dieticians, medical specialists and scientific authorities all emphasise the importance of a varied, bal anced diet. And how many of the nraful foods are practically taste less. How many worth-while foods, if taken "straight," would be so monotonous that we would soon tire of them. This is where sugar enters ih. itnmain nf the healthful diet. A pinch of sugar used in the cooking of vegetables (preferably cooked with Utile water) makes these important foods fresher, more colorful and more delightful to the taste. A dash of sugar makes the eating of fruit and cereals a positive pleasure. Tha well-informed woman t correct amounts of sugar in making milk desserts Junkets, custards, puddings, ete-thsa helping her 'mil to eat tha needed Quantity of milk. Remember stewed fruits, eakea and cookies and ice cream ferdeaaert. A bit of sweet makes the seal complete.

He has trained hard, however, and Is pre pared to give Uie sailor a real fight His win over Benny Pels has given him confidence and after a round or two of "feeling out" his oppon euts, fans may expect some furious milling.

(JPi The odd punch delivery and twisting ring . style that has made Dave Shade first and foremost challenger for the mldleweight title will be set Into! action Wednesday night when the Concord, Calif, and New York "croucher" meets up with young George Dixon, Portland negro, in a ten rounder at the Oakland aud ltorium. Whether Dixon can spray enougn solid swats on Shade's anatomy to win a decision Is problematical.
