/ Temperature Lacking
For This Chap

The story concerning the
golfers heart beating bogey,
printed here the other day, has
caused another doctor TO relate
his experience.
'This chap, " said the physician,
"came under my observation and
propounded an amazing theory.
He wanted to know how 70 ele-
vate his temperature without
sitting on q hot stove. he eZ-
planned that he had followed the
accounts Of the recent national,
amateur championship tourna-
ment at Pittsburgh, and OBJ
served that, playing with a tenn
perature Of 104, Francis Ouimet
had beaten the defending cham
pion, Charles Evans.
I have the temperament, but
not the temperature, was the

SCORING
FOR GUNNER TEAM

Naval Gunners treated themselves
to a record score in their opening
game on the Navy Yard Recreation
Field when they counted 40 points
against the Camp Meade Tank Corps
eleven.
George Byers. crack halfback Of
the GUnners, counted seven touch
downs during the play. The visitors
were wOefully weak and failed to
fathom the cross bucks, forward
passes, and end runs Of the 1918 Dis
trict champions.
The Gunners showed considerably
more promise than in the starter last
season and are expecting to come for
ward rapidly from now on.

Assuming that the receipts main
tain the average already begun. the
total for the first i've games would
be 34sO,862.5O. OF this the National
Commission would get its 10 per cent,

cent to the Giants and the Cleveland
indians, second placers, and 40 per
cent to the Yanks and the Cubs, third
placers.
surDaases All Others.
The S1s4.546.81 Of the contesting
players would be divided 90 per cent,
S116,72S.09, to the winners and 40 per
cent, $77.818.72, to the losers. The
amount for the winners, therefore, on
the above supposition, would exceed
by nearly $4,000, an average of about
81, 900 per man, larger than any sum
ever divided by worlds series players
before.
The next highest figure is the $s7,-
1851 which was divided by the win
ming Red SOX in 1915, when only FIVE
games were played. The second high
est figure Is the SS8,543.O2 divided by
Al an IN F-L
series in 1912 The reason that the
hve games series Of 1916 was more
profitable to the players than the
longer one in 1912 is the fact that
Braves Field didn't exist in 1912, and
the games were played on the smaller
field Of Fenway Park. Each club has
twenty-four eligible men to partiCi-
pate, which will make the share Of
each winning player S4,863.67-a sea-
sons salary for a whole team back
in the dim days Of '76.
After the fifth game the club own
ers divide 90 per cent Of the receipts
between them, but half Of everything
they get after the fifth game must be
put into a pool which the other four
teen major league club owners will
divide equally. So even Connie Mack
and Baker will horn for a little some
thing.
Will share q Fortune.
Even II only six games are played
Gary Hermann and Comiskey will
profit more than 100000 each despite
the fact that they have to kick in to
the other club owners. This sum was
surpassed only in 1912, when the
share OF the club owners, untouched
by any shares" for other clubs,
reached the sum Of S295, 1890. That
figure was attained only because the
two .contesting club owners were able
to divide between themselves 90 per
cent. of the receipts Of the last fve
games.
Though they have to give part OF
their profit TO the less fortunate clubs, /
there Is little indicatian that either
Hermann or Comiskey will be seen
in the vicinity Of any pOorhouse soon,
no matter how high coal may go dur
ing the winter.
