CHICAGO, Feb. left Mordecal
Brown star pitcher OF the Cubs, and
one Of the best in the business, has
his way he will become the highest
salaried baseball player in the world
outside of those with managerial
berths.
The famous three-fngered wonder
is TO appeal to Manager Frank Chance
as soon as the latter comes TO the city,
and believes the Cub manager will see
the justice of his request.
Brown, down in Terre Haute, Ind.

sign it for while.
To his friends. Brown said that he
expected dn increase of something like
$4,000, which would make him the
highest priced player in the National
League, The three-fingered wonder
figures that he Will be unable to hold
up his end of the job very many more
years, and that the wisest policy for
him is to make hay while the sun
shines. Brown thinks he will get the
raise all right, but he has also told
MS friends around RosedaIe that he
will not go with the team until his
contract is fixed up. AS he lis not

means what he says.

WILL NOT ENTER
FEDERAL GAMES
University of Virginia Refuses to
Send Athletes to Compete
IN Big Event.
OTHER COLLEGES REFUSES
George Washington and George
town VIII Not Enter-Johns
Hopkins May Follow Suit.
OTHER COLLEGES REFUSES

WASHINGTON, Feb. I9.--Befinite
announcement that neither George
town. George Washington, nor Vir-
gina would be represented in the
Federal games was made by tho
managers of these Institutions We'd
nesday.
1t was also announced that Johns
Hopkins would probably take the
same stand as the other two colleges
by refusing to enter. 1t appears,
that the high schools have grew
ance against the Federal games also.
for 1t was made known yesterday
that Central would not be repre-
sented. while Western is said to be
in favor of keeping out.
The reasons these colleges refuse to
enter men In the meet vary. 1t has
been known for a long time that the
George Washington University man.
agement and the management of the
Federal games have been at odds.
Manager Eaton. of the Buff and Blue,
claims that he was not treated fairly
when trying to arrange the date for
his meet. and that c. E. Beckett, the
chairman Of the registration commit
tee of the s. A. A. A. u, who Is one
of the promoters of the Federal
games management offers to give
change his date with Richmond Col
lege. although the Southerners were
in favor Of Eaton's plan. Manager
Eaton also charges that the Federal
games management offers to give
more would not enter the George
Washington games. Manager Eaton
has preferred charges against
Beckett. which will be settled later
at a meeting of the South Atlantic
Association of the Amateur Athletic
Union, in Baltimore.
Georgetown's Reason.
Georgetown gives as its reason for
not entering the Federal games that
the athletes are not in good condi-
ton and would be unable to do them
selves and the college justice should
they compete. "BilI" Foley, the
veteran trainer. Is in absolute charge
of the men. and he informed Man
ager McNulty that 1t would be better
not to send the men to the meet.
Whether Georgetown has a griev-
ance against the Federal games is
not known
Vtrginia's case Is somewhat diff
ferent and Its action comes as a sur
prise to many. but at any rate the
stand has been taken with George
town and George Washington in the
matter. 1t is known that Manager
b. r. Cecil. of the Orange and Blue
track team had a conference with
Manager Eaton the morning before
the meet; also that Cecil and Nc
Nulty were in conference that same
night. 1t is not at all unlikely that
the Federal games were mentioned
during their conversation. Manager
Cecil had instructions from the Gem
eral Athletic Association not to enter
the Federal games II Georgetown and
George Washington did not 1t win

Frank b. Lafferty, who, in the early
days of base ball. was one of the great

He was thirty-six years old and sa-
loonkeeper. He was an organizer and
pitcher of the famous Quickstep Club
in Wilmington In 1871. In 1873, be-
cause of his mastery and swift pitch
ing, the team won the championship
of the United States, defeating the
Athletics, of Philadelphia, with Me-
Bride as pitcher, and other noted
clubs throughout the country.

Foreman was to be found In Erie. Pa,
and Hardy in Cleveland. O. Yester-

Johns Hopkins Attitude.
That Johns Hopkins will not send
men to the meet is practically as
sured. 1t Is known that the Balti-
more manager and one Of the local
managers have been In communica-
ton regarding the matter. and 1t Is
said that Johns Hopkins has decided
to keep out of the meet.
The announcement that George
Washington. Virginia and George
town would not be represented in
the Federal games comes as shock
to the management. as the last two
institutions have been widely adver-
csed as sending their best men to
compete. II Is said that the man
agement was depending on Virginia
to be the main attraction, but now
that they have followed IN the foot
steps of the local Institutions, 1t
leaves the meet practically withous
college stars. The graded schools,
however. will be we'll represented.
Johns Hopkins has also been adver-
tised as sending down Its best men.
What effect this action of these col
leges will have on the Federal meet
Is a matter of conjecture.
