Fame! What does 1t amount to az
ter all--except at the time Of its
making?
Look It Detroit. for instance. Last
yeas the Detroit team were called
wonders, champions, leaders, etc.
Hughey Jennings Vas the peer OF
leaders, q star coach. etc.
What arc they called this year?
Here are some of the comments
sent by a Detroit fan to the Cleve-
land Leader:
"The Tigers are betting on the OPP
posing teams in the Detroit hand
books.
desperate at their failure to win
some OF them have relaxed training
rules.
The pitchers started In badly and
the team suiks because the players
don't believe it possible TO win.
THE Tigers had their hearts brok-
On by the licking they got in the
worlds series and will never be
themselves again.
The other Tigers arc sore because
they believe that Cobb is drawing
more than any OF the other members
OF the team. Consequently they suik.
The Tigers got too much money
for their campaign last year and spent
an easy winter. Most OF them still
have money in the bank and don I
feel that they have to work to keep
their jobs.
THE Tigers have their heads
swelled. Because they won the cham
pionshhip last year they think that
the other. teams are easy for them
and jennings can't rouse them to the
fac, that they need to strain every
nerve to win
The Tigers are sore because Of the
share of credit that Manager Jen.
nings got out Of their 1907 campaign
II surely must be great to be on a
Detroit team!
