REPORT OR RETIRE." SAYS
WEEGHMAN TO PLAYERS
BY Mark Shields

Even without the strike dictum of
Dave Fultz there would be trouble
between players and management of
the Cubs this spring because of sal
airy differences. AS it is, the ath-
Ietes are banking on double grieV-
ance.
Weeghman is getting away from
war salaries and is trying to put his
payroll back on a peace footing
again. The North Side club has sunk
considerable money, both as a Fed
eral club and franchise holder in
the National league, and retrench-
ment is the order of. the day.
Emphatic reductions have been
made in the salaries of several play
ers and Weeghman follows that ac-
ton with notification that they can
accept the new terms or quit the
game, so far as he is concerned.
This uItimatum applies to- several
former stars and to at least one
pIayer-Leslie Mann-who was an
efficient worker last season. Mann
received in the neighborhood of
$4,000 for his work last season, but
his contract for the coming cam
paign was cut. /
Mann has returned his contract
unsigned. He is included in Weegh-
mans uItimatum, but will Undoubt-
edIy be able to come to terms with
the club president. Archer and Will
son must accept the reductions
handed them without further argu-
ment,
Mann played good BALI in 1915
after he was given a chance to per-
form regularly, and, as salaries went,
did more to earn his money than
any Of the players who have been
reduced. He will probably arbitrate
with the club, accept some reduction
and be on hand when the training
c~ecial leaves for California.

airy for 1917. Vic Safer profted by
the Federal league war. 1t is prob
able that Cy Williams did also, and
both may suffer under new condi-
tons.
Out on the South Side matters are
brighter. Claude Williams, the youth
full left-handed pitching star, has
sent in his signed contract, and
Pres. Comiskey expects no trouble
from his athletes over their con-
tracts. Several of them were in town
Tuesday, but did not attend the
meeting of fraternity members at
the Hotel La Sale.
Ed Collins membership in the
players fraternity has lapsed and
Eddie will report on time for spring
training. In explaining this Eddie
said he wanted it understood he was
not antagonistic to the organization.
In New York Presidents Tener of
the National and Johnson of the
American got together and decided
that in the future organized baseball,
at least in the big leagues, would
have nothing more to do with the
fraternity. Relationship will be sew
cred entirely.
President Dave FuIz's answer to
this is that the fraternity has taken
its stand and will stick to it. He
claims to have enough men lined up
to seriously cripple both major and
minor clubs if the national commits
sion does not listen to the grievances
of the athletes. The fraternity, like
the Federal league, will center it's
drive on the National league, realiz-
ing that organization is weaker at
every point than the American.

To Make a Town Grow

1t is dead easy to make any town grow and
prosper, where there is a good country round
about it, and it can be done even with poor sur
roundings. Energy and the spirit of helpfulness
will turn the trick. Whatever another undertakes
help it along, for you can not help another without
helping yourself and whatever you do to really
help yourself helps others as well. Every added
industry, business, or endeavor adds to the value
of all the town. Each added dollar to home
adds little to the value of all other homes. And
it is these little additions made one at time that
counts for that steady progress which makes a
town grow into city. 1t often happens that
good natural advantages are a hinderance to
growth. This is so only when people rely too
much on what they have and go to sleep on the
job. The railroad payroll and the excellent farm
ing lands hereabouts make for that very condition
here Let's awake to the opportunities around US
and build city.
