Jenning, manager of the Detroit

The former dynamic boss of the
Tigers is filled with optimism.
His friends who have visited him.
however, are not so optimistic.
They fear that the dread tuber-
culosis has laid fatal hands upon
him.
Ty Cobb visited him and found
him quite cheerful, but the red
headed former Tiger boss said 1t
was doubtful IL he would appear on
a bali field again this year. John
McGraw, Giant boss. told him to
remain away for several months. Z
McGraw advised him not to get
into uniform again until July or
August, but jennings says he
probably win not return to the
game this year ut all.
Since entering the sanitarium
