GATHER DRAWS
PAY FROM THREE

The national commission has guar
anteed Ted Gather, the former Bos-
ton player, full salary under his iron
clad contract for $4,000 during the
present season.
The case is complex affair, as the
Braves originally sent Gather along
with Moran and Whaling, to the Yer
non Pacific Coast league team in pay
ment for Outfielder Without.
Gathers release from Jersey City
to Vernon was brought about by the
Braves, who entered into an agree
ment with Vernon by which that club
should pay Gather 1926 month and
Boston would make up the rest of the
contract.
Later Vernon decided that it could
not afford to pay that much salary,
and Gather subsequently went to

One of the disciples of this style of
"hit and walk" play, Lr. D. T. Quig-

medical friend.
"Half the aches and pains of life
grow from the fact that present day
people lock Their feet up in air tight
shoes for Is hours daily" said DR..
Quigley. "The result is that skin be-
comes diseased and poison spreads

WINNING STREAK
MAY BE BROKEN

Seventeen years of amateur cham
pionships in the Western Golf asso-
citation have seen the title returned
to Chicago. Without an exception,
some player of that district has kept
the championship cup within COM
mutation ticket distance of the
Windy City.
But there is strong likelihood of
this title going elsewhere this year.
Chick Evans, who does most of his
practicing in Edgewater, says he is
not going to defend his title in the
tournament that will be held in July
on the Del Monte course in Califor.
