Callow, coach of Washington's

substantial increase in salary and
has signed his contract for the
coming year.
This announcement, made by
Darwin Meisnest, graduate man.
ager of the University of Washing

question at the University. The
amount Of salary which Callow will
receive was not made public.
Alumni and other followers of
rowing have been favoring a $4,000
salary for the victorious tutor.
Callow was offered a great deal
more than this amount by both
Pennsylvania and Harvard, and it
is believed that his salary for the
coming year is close to the $4,000
figure.

It was Of Lacosta that Al. Wallis

year Ty admitted that he was not
as young as he used to be and
that he would take 1t easier. This,
however, was contingent upon his
other outfieIders showing sufficient
class to justify Ty in using them
and remaining on the sidelines.
When Ty finishes the present
year he will have completed his
nineteenth year in major league
baseball, all of which time he put
in with the Detroit Tigers. During
that time he has established more
records and played more and better
baseball than any other man who
ever pulled on a uniform in any
league.
He is not likely to stop at that.
but it is his ambition to round out
twenty seasons as an active player,
which means that he will be an
active member of the Tigers next
season, as well as the manager. He
will not play every game and per-
haps not more than half OF the
schedule, but he will play and run
the team, thus gratifying his am
bition. By the end Of next season
he will have set records that prOba-
bly, never win be equalled.
The record he has made is the
more astonishing because Ty has
always played harder than any
other player and has taken the
most risky chances i'm running.

personal danger has brought him
many injuries to his arms and
legs, and these have helped

KING LEAR ATTACKS
FAIRNESS or CONTRACT

MILWAUKEE,, Aug. 21.--Fred p.
King) Lear, former second baseman
of the Milwaukee baseball team,
has answered the suit of the Mil
waukee American Association team,
in which he defended his action for
alleged jumping of contract. Lear
attacked the contracts submitted to
all players by the ball clubs and
charges that they are unfair and
inequitable. He defends his leaving
the team by an alleged understand
ing by which he could leave the
team If he could better himself
financially.
In July Lear Jumped his contract
and went to play with the Nash

day Of retirement as an active
ball player.

But since it is Tvs ambition
to round out twentyyears and since.
he is the absolute master Of his
destiny in this particular it would
seem certain that he will attain
that ambition.
Ty can have the management Of
the Detroit team as long as he
wants it. He has a contract for
two more years. He wants to
serve at least another year and the
club owners want him to, which
would seem to make 1t unanimous,
tales to the contrary notwithstand-
ing.
1t could not be otherwise than
that any man who has played so
hard for victories as Ty has played
would make enemies. Every man
who amounts to anything makes
them. Perhaps the better a man is
the more bitter are his foes. The
rumors that have been. floating
around can come from no other
source than from those who want
Ty out of the game, the wish being
father to the thought.
Ty will be Top Tiger again next
year If he is alive and well.
