I Billy Evans Says
By BILLY EVANS '
TT IS the uncertainty of baseball
' that enables It to retain its pop
ularity. The coming season presents
many unusual situations.
What will Eddie Collins do as man
ager, of the Chicago White Sox! Con
ceded to be one of the brainiest play
ers in the history ut the game, will he
aucceed as manager? 1 feel sure that
be will.
Stanley Harris set a tough prece
dent for first-year managers when
be won a pennant and a world series
in bis debut. I look for no such a
a happening from Collins. He hasn't
the club to turn the trick.
"The White Sox . will not finish
Inst," ia the only statement that be
has made so far. Last aeason the
Sox reposed In the cellar at the fin
ish. That statement la characteristic of
Collins. He is far more Inclined to feel
bis way rather than splurging. When
Collins eaya his club is too good to
finish last be is confident of the fnct
I will bo greatly dlsappoind if
Collins fails to win a ranking among
the truly groat managers of the game.
He knows hia stuff.
Next in Importance, perhaps is the
case of Ueorge Slsler. All things con
sidered, be made a most remarkablo
comeback last aeason after a year of
idleness, due to eye trouble.
However, lie was not the Staler of
old. Hia. batting avernge dropped over
100 points, llo just finished inside
. the .800 mark. Hitler says bo will hit
at -least 40 points better this year.
If he does tbo chnnces of the iirowns
will be greatly enhanced.
AVhat about Walter JohnBon? Will
the big fellow be able to have an
other big year, thereby retaining the
great bouors that finally came his
way in the world series V
In a aense the status of JohnBon
is almost as uncertain aa that of
Hisler. He baa tasted of baseball's
greatest glory and must step very
fast to retain that prestige.
There are some who believe that
Walter is tarrying a bit too long that
he should have retired as baseball's
greatest hero.
, '
It is very poasible that Johnson
msy early demonstrate Unit he Is far
from through. If so. well and good.

Expert With Rifle
To Give Exhibition
Here on April 13
One of the very best things that
"Ad" Topperwein does in his daily
shooting exhibition is the drawing of
heads of people who are in the public
eye. drawing them on a sheet of tin
with riflo bullets instead of with the
brush on canvas.
Mr. Topperwein who is a menibre
of the Winchester Shooting tenia will
shoot here on April. I'd and he will
cut out the profile of Uncle Snm, an
Indian head, President Wilson, or our
old friend Mutt
The likeness is cut out on a piece
of sheet tin about two by four feet,
set out In front of his nudience, and
Topperwein sits on the ground about
20 feet from his tin canvas und puts
in the- bullets with a 22-Winchester
automatic. While this is a remarknble
bit of work it isn't the only kind of
shooting he does.
The event will begin at 3:30 in the
afternoon and is as free as tho air.
The exhibition was moved up two
days as Marshfield and Olympin are
being added to the schedule.

QNK of the most remarkable ath

produced is Johnny Weissinuller, the
greatest swimmer of all time. Weiss
muller, as you no doubt know, holds
more swimming titles than any na
tntor in history.
As a boy he grew up In the streets
of Chicago and played in I.ake Michi

the youngatcr in hand nnd taught him
how to uso his marvelous natural

tbe greatest swimmer in the annals of
the sport. .Since then be has gone
on smashing one record after an
other . until even that has become
more or less monotonous.
Observance of training rules has
been one of Weissmuller'a biggest
tasks, however. For like most youths
Johnny liked his ice cream and piu
uud other fancy desserts. Dut to
his credit it must be said that he hus
been a strict disciplinarian since get
ting imu the swimming spotlignt
which no doubt mure than a little ac
counts for his wonderful success.
"I ve beeu swimming since 1 was
10," Johnny (.aid on one occasion not
so lung ago. "I like speed. It's easy
but training is hard work.' And he
heaved a well-meant sigh.
Another time, after having won sev
eral eenautionfll faces; Uacurach, hia
coach, ventured u pto congratulate
him.
"That's ail right," said the young
ster with a grin. "But how about the
rigors of training discipline' Are
they lifted now? Can I have a real
feed of frankfurters and ice cream at
last?"

However, the state's witnesses told
a different story.
It was a story of a woman who
killed strong implication being that
motive was a $750 automobile and
then hid traces of the crime with
studied craft.
Body Is Hidden
Could a woman unversed in crime
calmly pack her victim's body in a
trunk, take it to a cliff many miles
away, and dispose of it in what miglit
have proved a safe hiding place?
"Probably not," say those who give
credence to the boy's confession; "but
a mother could do it to save a son.
There is no limit to what a woman
can do for her sen."
Also they call to mind Mrs. Willis
demeanor in court, "womr.n of Bteel
and silence." as she became dubbed
because of her calmness und apparent
resignation. The state's uttorney,
however, scoffs.
"If this confession were true it
would have been advanced long ago,"
he says, "especially in view of the
fact that the story, if true, might'
have resulted in a different verdict for
all."
Words Comforting.
Paradoxically these words are the
first comforts she has had since she
learned of "Sonny's" confession, she i
herself declares.
"I'm so glad the prosecutors don't
believe it," she says. "It Is the best
thing that could happen.
