Collins was on hand at the slways-dangerous rpark that the Cub have been miXMng since he Joined the hospital brigade. He made only one hit. but that came in the thick of the Cubs' six-run first Inning rally. Pending the three-game series with the Giants, beginning next Tuesday, and the final week of play, during whlrh the Oiants are faced with the double-header bogey-man on four straight day, il appears at this writing that tlir Cubs are slmnt certain to wind up no better than second.

Bill Jones kept his Friday afternoon practice fast and snappy as he finished off an even week's work with the 1937 Cornhuskers. The Blffer called for nothing unusual during the course of the afternoon's events, but the atmosphere remained as It was at the start, plenty of snap and drive. Punting and blocking again held the spotlight, with Johnny Howell playing the part of the major domo. Johnnys punts were getting the most distance, and showing the best form, while his blocking was almost up to Ms last year's efforts. the off at the shoestring style.

Jim Mather, the sophomore speed artist from Arapahoe, also showed up weU In the kicking drills.
