keeping with the high standard

and the fact that he missed beat
ing out the Yankees for the peu-

consigned to the second division

eloquently of his managerial
ability.
The Trouble in Cleveland.
The fly in the ointment is that
he receives a percentage OF the

ton to huge salary. The result
of this arrangement has been that
after his requirements have been
met and the remainder of the
clubs overhead discharged little

Hornsby's case is more involved,

erations are paramount in the re-

owner of the world champions.
now strained to such all extent
that reports have Bill Killefer
slated for the berth of boss i'll

Hornsby denies there is any
foundation for the rumor that he
will be traded to the Giants. but
does not hesitate to admit he is
dissatisfied with conditions sur
rounding his present berth, nor to
assert that he will insist upon
change.
1t seems that Branch Hickey,
Rogs predecessor as pilot, by
reason of an old contract with the
club was entitled to a large bonus
(reported as $40,00O because the
Cards won the world title, where
as Hornsby has received nothing

"Office interference" with his
managerial plans, presumably
from Hickey, who still is vice
president OF the club, has not been
eliminated, in accordance with
Hornsby's demands, is another OF
Rog's charges.
1t is assumed that Sam Breadon,
smart business man, in.his ca
pacity as president of the Cardi-
nails, will patch things up with
Hornsby, but the toll of half
dozen big league pilots already
scrapped constitutes record for
one year, even if no changes are
effected with the Cardinals and
Indians, and the extent to which
financial considerations are in

The game was stubbornly fought,

The Pennsylvanians had a number of
chances TO score, but always lacked
the power to put the ball over.
Columbia took the ball on downs

however, and If rumors of two

ings already effected, for the
Pittsburgh pilot lost his command
principally through inability to
maintain discipline in the ranks.
Also George Sisler of the
Browns and Lee Fohl of the Red
Sox were relieved of their duties
with the turnstilc element involved
only to the extent that trailing
teams naturally are poor business
propositions, but concern for the
exchequers of the Phillies, Tigers
and White Sox figured promi
nently in the fate that befell
Arthur Fletcher. Ty Cobb and
Eddie Collins. and this will hold

play first base in addition to is~

field effectiveness of Cobb and
Collins unquestionably influenced
Owners Frank Navin and Charles
Comiskey in the shake-ups they
effected in Detroit and Chicago.
Collins was drawing a fat sal
ary-reliably reported as being
$35,00Oefor shouldering the com
bined burdens of manager and
secondbaseman on the South

of the catching for the Pale Hose

tinies, and for a stipend consider
ably smaller than that paid his
predecessor.
Cobb's Case Similar.
Cobb's case was similar. At the
time he entered into the three
year agreement, which expired
with the close of the recent cam
paign, Tyrus Raymond still was a
mighty factor for daily service in
the sensational style that at
tracted cash customers in droves.
His remuneration was even more
munifcent than Collins, but the
Georgian also began to slow up.
He got into only about half the
games played last season, and
achieving no more artistic success
with an array of doughty sluggers
than Collins he stepped aside in
favor of Umpire George Moriar-
ty, who will receive checks less
than half the size Cobb drew
