Star Players Look Before
Leaping To Federal League
Baseball Artists Look Askance Upon Salaries in Escrow,
Preferring Hard Cash in Hand Release Clause
is Possible Source of Trouble With the
Feds in the Future
BY SAM CRANE.

its way and popularity is not ignored,
but il is the yellow backs in sight and
in hand that viii cause more jubila-
ton than the escrow" in the bush
Now, if those players who have Fed
eral league salary ambitions viii only
look ahead further than their own
noses and consider for just one min
ute that there is a ten day notice OF
release clause in their Federal league
contra cts they will be able to grasp the
plain and simple fact that they can be
released at any time and anywhere by
being given the old ten day blue en-
Yelope.
The bonded company is only respon-
sible to the player for what the ball
club owes him. Consequently, when
the issue is brought up, it will be
found that all the club owes the player
is the salary for ten days-unIess, Of
course, there IS some back salary com
ing to him.
VIII Have No Appeal.
And when that pinch time arrives
those players, who have signed Fed
eral league contracts, will have no
National commission Of organized
baseball to fall back on to make up
the deficit.
These are things that the players
who contemplate jumping should stop
and ponder Overland deeply, too.
But If Ford and Sweeney have done
see where the Yankees will be seri-
ously weakened. And this is not sour
grapes, either. Ever since the Giants
and Yankees played that famous world
series that noted battery lost caste
among local fans. Sweeney was not in
the best Of shape possibly; but, to
come right down to cases, when was
sweeney exactly right at crucial times2
The fact is that Ford and Sweeney
were nurSed and pampered altogether
too much when they were good. They
were educated to look for too much

AMERICAN
HEALTH
SHOE

Do your feet acheP Then wear this
patented shoe which allows the arch to
become strong, the muscles active, the
body weight to fall on the outside Of the
foot, and with the PIVOT heel the toes
swing inward, which cures oil foot
troubles and fat foot. Shoes with stiff
arches are crutch. "Long inside" heels
and plates are "prop" and can be dis
carded at once. We can give you COM
fort and relief not possible in any other
shoe in the United States.
Shoes made with high arches splint
the ligaments and allow no action when
they follow the arch line. Often the
weakest feet have high arches and will
be benefited by wearing "Ground Grip
per Shoes" which conform to the arch of
the foot with every step. A tilted or
twisted plate does not tilt or twist the
foot; but on account of its arbitrary fix
ity only makes the foot try continuously
to get away from it, and causes painful
spasm. In so.called "fat-foot" plates OF
steel or other material are given, which
serve as mechanical braces, which give
push or lift to neutralize defect. Such
a measure must be inefficient, not only
giving no cure but at best only perma-
nent dependence-one error neutralizing
mother for time. Those who get we'll
after the use of such plates do so be-
cause the cause Of the foot collapsing Is
temporary and disappears. All other
cases are permanently enslaved. Walk
ing is changed in form and action. Ev-
eryone who enjoys walking, or has to
stand ON their feet most of the time, will
find this shoe source of rest, and q
practical cure for foot troubles.
