TY COBB GETS $40
PER WEEK IF HURT
BY Operation of State Law, Salary of
Worlds Champion Batsman and
Star Player Would Be Immensely
Reduced.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Lansing. Mich, May 15.-Should Ty
Cobb, worlds champion batsman and
star player of the Detroit baseball
team, be injured while under contract
with President Navin of the Tigers,
he would be entitled to only $40 a
week compensation, according to in
formation received here.
President Navin had notified the In
dustrial board of his intention TO
place all his players under the proYi-
tons of the state workmens COM
pensation law.
Cobb is supposed to draw a salary
of about $4,000 per month, or $500 a
week. If injured, he ordinarily would
receive his full salary while on the
bench. But under the state law,
Cobbs pay would not be forthcoming.
The law provides that when an en-
ploye is disabled he must be paid IAN
amount equal to one-half his weekly
wage, not to exceed SO week"

the game and the leading position in
the league by lending their aid toward
