By Walter Camp.

THE year 1914 promises to usher
in an era of the most extraor-
binary financial considerations
IN connection with athletics that this
country has ever known. Coaching
talent is to be rewarded with salaries
never before reached and playing
talent in the professional baseball
ranks is signing contracts, due to
competition between the Federals and
the present league organizations, that
are likely to enrich the player beyond
any earlier dreams of avarice which
may have entered into his calcula-
tons. We have already commented
upon some of these, but the height
was reached when Speaker was sign
ed for two years at $4,000, and il
has been said that there was a bonus
in addition to this. Comparisons are,
of course. inevitable. Already there
have been comments contrasting the
price paid for work in an athletic line
with work in an educational line, and
these promise to multiply One should
understand, however and make the
proper discount in any comparisons
of this kind, for it is doubtful If those
exaggerated salaries continue. In
fact picture the situation IL the con-
test for players in professional league
ranks goes on forcing up prices so
that either side to hold a man has to
pay him not only 500 for year,
but has to make contract covering
a longer period of time than that!
What, also, will be its effect upon
other players? Truly, it is the age
g., - ,aIE ,o,
can, but such policy in any business
is likely in the long run to kill the
goose that lays the golden egg"

W. knight of the sporting pen, has
written his last line and passed be-
yond the call of timei 1t seems only
yesterday that he was a new man on
the staff of San Francisco journal
straight from the shores of New Zea-
land. He was always especially keen
about boxing, but that didn't mean
that he was not a fine critic of every
branch, as WELL from Rugby up. It's
over % years since he began painting
his word pictures to all readers OF
sport on the coast, and he had be-

come home to these shores He
stated that he believed this crusade
would have a far more wide reach
ing effect in implantihg the princi-
pies of our national game in foreign
lands than had that earlier visit some
% years ago, with a similar purpose.
He complimented most highly the
sporting spirit displayed by mana
gers and players, and laid particular
stress upon the work in this respect
of Comiskey, McGraw and Callahan.
McGraw himself made an excellent
and fitting address, short and very
much to the point while Callahan
was generous enough to give all the
credit of successful management to

ALLOWANCE IS AWARDED
Superintendent of School Janitors
Nearly Misses $500
for Livery.

Because the superintendent of ianlIors
of the public schools of the District of
Columbia goes about in automobile
instead of using a horse and wagon he
came within an ace of losing three-hun-
ed-dollar allowance appropriated for
livery of a horse and vehicle.
The auditors for the state and other
departments dsallowed a claim for so,
or two months payments, for July and
August of last summer made by the Su-
perintendent Of janltors.
The controller of the Treasury,
George L. Downey, today reversed the
action of the auditors and authorized
l. c. Wilson, disbursing officer for the
District of Columbia, to pay the
amount.
The law formerly allowed $500 for
livery for a horse and vehicle. or for
a garage for an automobile, for the use
of the superintendent of janitors of the
District schools.
The last appropriation bill changed the
former wording, however. and made pro-
vision for livery for horse and vehicle
only
Controller Downey considered that this
was an accident, due to a misunderstand-
ing of the facts, and as the District Of
Columbia had had the use of the means
of transportation. the controller consid-
cred that the superintendent should be
paid
