The Cleveland club owns a twirler
by the name OF 8. A. Gregg. who is
pitching for the Portland team OF the
Pacific Coast League. Gregg is a south
paw, and said to be some pitcher. The
Nap management sort Of banked on
him during the winter, and back Of his
failure. to report is an interesting
story.
| 1t seems the contract sent to Gregg
by TIE Cleveland club didn't please
him, the figure stated being entirely
too low to suit his fancy. He failed
to reply TO the letter. and the Cleveland
club, thinking that possibly the contract
had gone astray. sent him another. No
an$wer was received to this letter. or
to some four or FIVE other letters sent
by the club. Gregg failed to report for
spring training.
Now, 1t seems that Gregg's father
is a boss plasterer. and business In his
line has been on the boom this spring.
His son learned the trade. and could
demand Ave or six dollars a day for
his work. When the Cleveland club
failed to offer his son as much as he
thought coming to him the senior
Gregg decided that he would put his
offspring at plastering instead Of pitch
Ing.
The first the Nap owners knew Of
the fathers decision was on the re-
ceipt Of a letter from a Nap fan on
the coast. who happened to know
GrexR's father. The fan informed the
local owners that Gregg'S father didn't
care whether he pitched or not. as
plastering. was good. Thereupon the
Nap owners got busy and placed tho
southpaw with the Portland club, where
he is pitching good ball.

Yale's Rowing Problem.
So accustomed are Yale men to triumph
in every sport thtat they are finding it
hard to be reconciled to the third straight
defeat in rowing by Harvard Indeed
Yale men until recently were inclined to
regard Harvard crews as joke, but now
all is changed and old graduates ana un-
dergraduates, too, are seeking the ROOT of
the trouble. There have been hurried
conferences to diagnose the trouble, but
50 far there has been no satisfactory So
luton.
John Kennedy. who declare mat he has
not properly trained the men or that his
methods are out Of date. Others there are
who contend that Yale's trouble Is the
lack OF men OF the proper physique. And
there seems to be some reason for this
conclusion when the Yale oarsmen are
compared with those who manned the
Harvard boats.
For the last three years Yale men have
discovered after the race that their crew
contained one or more men physically un-
able to row out the race without a COL
lapse. The only reason that can be ad-
vanced for this Is the lack of preliminary
racing experience. Harvard had two such
races and Coach. Wray knew his crew
