MAY CAUSE HITCH.
Giants Will Probably Pay Herzos
Money Due Him | .ast Season.

New York. Jan. IA hitch in the
Herzog-Barnes-Doyle deal may still
arise unless the Giants pay Herzog the
1883 subtracted from his salary late
last season while he was under an IN
definite suspension for leaving his club
without permission:
Herzog now says he will not go to
Boston Unless this amount is paid him.
Under his contract with the Giants he
could not be traded unless he sane
toned the deal Secretary Foster, of
the Giants. said Herzog waived this
clause in his contract by publicly an
nouncing that he wanted to be traded.
Hearing of his contemplated transfer
to Boston, Herzog> asked his lawyer to
hold back the suit which he was pre-
pared to file for the amount of money
taken from him, but he stipulates that
he will only abide by the deal IL this
money is paid him. The PROBABILITIES
are that Herzog now will he paid this
money. All along President Hampstead
said he had no objection to paying
Herzog this amount were 1t not for the
fact that McGraw considered it bad
for the discipline Of the club IL this
penalty was refunded.

WEEGHMAN CANNOT
BUY LEAGUE FLAG

Charley weeghman did not sue
ceed in purchasing the National
League pennant when he bought
Alexander and Killifer.
1t will take more than the star
battery from Quakertown to land
the Cubs on top of the heap by the
time October rolls around. But
Weeghman did one thing-he pur-
chased a lot of trouble for three or
four rival National League clubs
who are casting lamps toward that
trusty 1918 bunting.
With Red Killifer to handle the
slants of the mighty Alex. the Cubs
can be figured as good as in with
from IS to 81 games of baseball
already. providingy of course, that
Fred Mitchell will be able to put
a rejuvenated team around the star
battery.
The Cubs won't have Alex to beat
next season. He will be winning
games for them. and If he has any
thing like his usual success he will
turn in a lot of victories, there's
not the slightest doubt of that.
Weeghman and Mitchell have 1t
figured that with A lex, Jim Vaughn
and Phil Douglas practically sure
to fill three regular berths on the
pitching stan. they are better of
than any of their rivals.

AS JOE CANTILLON SEES 1T.
How, He Asks. Will They Enforce
That Rule Against Spitbalp

Cincinnati, Jan. 12-Joe Cantilion.
manager of the Minneapolis Millers,
had been hibernating down in Hick-
man, KY, and did not learn that the
American Association had decided To
ban the spitball until he got back 70
civilization one day last week. When
the news was broken TO him he eX-
ploded in characteristic fashion.
who's going to enforce the rule? ask
ed Joe. The umpires. Huh, and they
will have one ell of 4 time. It's the
same old story, the Millers' manager
goes on 10 say. Every time a pitcher
becomes real proficient hey put some
kind of lid on him. It's always
something to handicap the smart twirl-
er and bring him down to the level of
the dubs.
1t was the same way, says Joe. with
Ed Walsh. When he developed a mo-
ton that would hold runners close to
first base they concluded 1t was a
balk. II a pitcher should get abso-
lutte control. thinks Pongo Joe, they
would cut the plate down TO the width
of a case knife's edge and make him
split it for a strike.

HEAD-0N In AIR
REAL NERVE TEST

We have here and there heard a
fetv remarks passed about nerve get
ting or a nerve test in football.
baseball. tennis. boxing and golf.
But after listening to young
Candadian the other night all the
above tests seemed frivolous aud
futile and foolish and fippsnt. He
was young Mai. Bishop. aged Q. OF
the Candsdian Flying Corps. About
all he has done in the last six or
eight months was 10 partake in IL
air fights. bring down forty-seven
German machines and collect no less
than nine OF these in one day.
The part OF it is merely an introduce
ton, lifted from the Official records.
The 23-year-old major Was explain-
ing various ways to battle in the air.
One nerve test" that he outlined
was as follows: You see a hostile
machine rushing at you through the
air, firing a machine gun en- route.
One might dive. or loop the loop. or
hutter around. But. according to
young Maj. Bishop, one OF the best
ways was TO start head-on for the
machine, also firing a machine gun
en- route. This. he said, was the ideal
nerve test. The one that lost his
nerve first also generally lost his life
first. II neither decided TO quit. than
It was a case Of double annihilation.
A tackle who dives for a runner in
football is known to have his share
OF nerve. How. then. about the
citizen who rushes head-on toward
a hostile airplane in a nerve test Gns
feet in the air?
