Above is the way Tyrus Cobb feels
concerning his holdout on the Detroit

status Of the case in the least, letting
the settlement take its time.

him counting the days until he will get
a letter from the Detroit club announc-
ing that the deal has been closed. He
has his bunch Of ball players, and just

The monetary loss to the State through

dissipated by the Hart-Agnew anti

The famous little watering place reaped

untimely word, but whose millions are
responsible for the unmistakable evil
dences of racing activities to be seen

sport in New York. Their provocation
lies in the decision of the Appellate d.
