" COBB GIVES REASONS
 FOR NOT TRAINING AT CAMPS

. Ty Cobb answers the critics of his training camp methods by the asser- tion that the routine of one month or six weeks is entirely too long for the ball player.
 For many seasons Cobb has refused to report to the Tigers when they entrained for Dixieland. Rarely has he jumped into uniform earlier than a week or ten days before the open ing of the regular season. Cobb enemies repeatedly declare that fail- ure to train would handicap Cobb considerably. But it has never done so. Several times the Southern Ty- phoon" has started slowly, but along about mid dune he has found his stride and breezed along to the sub lime heights of the offensive baseball world.
 -Four to six weeks training in the south, with two sessions daily, hurts rather than helps a player Cobb ex- plains. After two weeks in the south the player is trained rather fine. After that strenuous training begins to sap his endurance. When the seasons opens he looks good and plays well. But before midAugust you will notice that he is growing stale, that he isn't playing with the old dash and speed.
 Early in my career I spent four to six weeks in training camps. Usually I reported for the opening of the season in fine condition. But after about two months Woulu begin 10 get a little stale. My work would lack zip. I decided finally that it was be- cause I was overtrained. So one sea- son ! did not report to the camp for full training but merely put in about ten days work.
 As a result I was able to put into the regular playing season all the en- durance that was necessary, and carried it right along through to the end of the season. Instead of finish ing the ball year Jagged and worn out and trained off. I was just as good physically S when tn season begun. And ever since then I've foo1owed that system of training, just enough to get the kinks out of my arms and legs without the sacrifice of stamina

COLLEGIATE FOOTBALL TO
 BE TAX EXEMPT THIS FALL

Americas football fans. will feel one less touch of the high cost of sports because of a recent ruling of the treasury department. The rul- ing is that where the money from a football game or other form of collegiate sport is used exclusively in educational work. the 10 per cent. war tax is exempted
 E1duca tional work is interpreted to mean the maintenance of an athletic establishment and department of physical education. The interpreta- ton was broad enough to include all high schools and colleges where con trol of the moneys received for athletic purposes is vested in faculty members.
 Schools where individuals or or ganizations of students or alumni have charge of the funds, or receive a profit therefron1 must continue to exact the tax from their patrons.

Cox won the event in :05 1-2 the fast heat, while Fenesta was sec ond in the third trip in 207 1-4.. This race makes McGregor the Great look like one of the best trotterS in train ing.
