or pay off q deficit in operation
for the preceding year, only that
part Of the assessment used for
paying off a deficit is taxable.
Because ft Is imposed for capital
expenditures the remainder Is
exempt.
The point has also been made
that this tax applies only to orig
inaI membership. whether evidenced
by certificate OF membership oil
share of stock in the club or not
but that money paid by new
member in taking up an old mem
ber's certificate is not taxable.
Finding way out OF the tax
situation is second only to cross
word puzzles as an indoor sport
and thus 1t has already been figured
that one way by which a club may
raise money and be free of this tax
is by issuing club obligations for
money received.
That is, instead of increasing the
annual dues to raise a clubhouse
fund, all an organization has to do
is require its members to buy notes
or bonds, even though without any
interest. A fund 80 raised, accord
ing to the ruling, would not be
taxable.

BY H. G. HAMILTON.

AUGUSTA, Ca, Feb. 9.-Tyrus
Raymond Cobb, manager Of the De

ecstacies over the chances Of his
team in the American League race
this year, but does remark that he
hoped to give the league consider
able run for its money.
Cobb, who won no little reflown
as man who would take almost
any kind Of q chance when he was
playing baseball under another
man, has developed into a cautious
5cuss when 1t comes to talking
about pennants.

agonies OF the last three years.
when Tiger teams, seemingly driv.

because of injuries here and there.
He referred particularly to the dis
Bunny Brief at the flag end Of the
last campaign, just when Brief was
hitting a pinch-slugging stride that
was standing out as a fine example
to ambitious young men.
"A team may look mighty good

Cobb said, ''but the fact Of the mat

Our team is young. True, they are

NEW YORK. Feb. eff Paavo

to prove a dismal failure, Albert
G. Hill, English champion runner
said when he arrived on the United
States liner George Washington.
Hill says the reason Nurmi is
having such a picnic smashing all
existing records here is because OF
the favorable climate. When Nurmi
goes to England to run, Hill ven.
tured, he will find the climate
quite unfavorable, and the speed
he now shows will be lacking.
Hill holds the British records
for 500 and 1900 metres. and at
those distances showed his heels
to Joie Ray in the 1920 Olympic
games at Antwerp.
