WIFE IS DENIED
WILL RIGHT

NEW YORK.-A will is not q
will until the person who made
it is dead, Surrogate George A.
Wingate ruled in Brooklyn. Pro
ceeding a step further, the court
held that since a will has no
legal existence during the makers
lifetime, a written agreement or
understanding" concerning his
will is meaningless" as far as
the law is concerned.
This reasoning was applied in
the case of Mrs. Bertha H. Cur
nee in her application for per
mission to contest the will of the
Rev. DR.. Abraham M. Quick, for
mer minister of the Reformed
Church, who died in Brooklyn on
September IL, leaving an estate
of $1,OOO,OOO.
Mrs. Gurnee, is the wife of
nephew of Mrs. Martha Quick,
deceased wife of the testator.
When he died his will disclosed
that he had left her nothing, so
she took steps to contest, contend
ing that previously a reward had
been promised to her for living in
the minister's home for three
years before his Wife'S death.

The Sporty Thing

At best. some kind friend

other Of these ball players from
infancy and who has a more
or less natural and lifelong in
terest in him, might take 'em
aside and tip 'em off as to the
sporty thing to do when pick
ing winners eight months in
advance.
They should be informed that
the proper stunt Is to pick your
own team. Praise your owners
and team mates. If the race
must be over by July 4, be sure
and havs yourself on the n
nant winning team. That
sounds Q whole lot better for
home consumption, and besides,
accidents happen even In base
ball wherein often the most un-
expected teams win.
There Is always one chance
you might be right in picking
your own team, and II you do
happen 20 be right, you're made
for life. But Just pick 'em
wrong once and see If the fans
ever let you. forget it.

ANNUAL SALARY.
BAT TIE BEGINS
WITH RUTH
By,LES CONKLIN

NEW YORK, Jan. 17.-With
hey nonnie-nonnie and a hot cha
cha, the almost annual salary bat
tie between the New York Yankees
and Babe Ruth was on in earnest
today. ~
The first salvo was fired by the
home-run maestro when he re-
ceived the clubs 1888 offer, be-
lieved to call for healthy salary
slash Of $4,000 or $4,000.
Quicker than you could say
Hell m Maria" the Big Bam
thrust the contract, unsigned,
into an envelope and hurled it
down a mail chute, Before going
to q movie to cool off in q bal"
cony seat, he fired his first ult1'
matum, as follows:
I'D rather let the club an
nOunce the figures. but I'LL say
their offer wasn't enough by
long shot. And, what's more,
they'll have to send for me il
they want to talk turkey. I'm
not going to run down to the
office to beg for more dough"
The Babes ultimatum failed to
disturb the serene compoSure OF
Cousin Ed Barrow, the clubs buSl-
ness manager.
Ruth has returned almost
every contract we've sent him,
SO there's nothing to worry
about" said Cousin Ed calmly.
1--WE may make q statement
later today"
Col. Jake Rupert. owner Of the
YankS, wasn't so sure everything
would be hotSy.totSy.
Babe is q business man and
hope he will listen to reason"
was all the good colonel would
say.
Although Rupert and Barrow
declined to reveal what the BAN
was offered. it is generally be-
lieved he was asked to accept a
working wage Of $60,OO0, or pos
sihlv 5000. Last season he re-
ceived-and earned-$75, 900. His
high-water mark was In 1890 and
1881. when he got $4,000 per
annum.
Early indications are that tho
inevitable compromise will be
reached and that Ruth win Sign
for one year for approximately
sos, 1000, although a $4,000 aura
seemed to surround his noble brow
last night.
Today or tomorrow, all mem.
bers of the Yanks, except Pitcher
Danny MacFayden, will get new
contracts. Documents for all the
Giants but Manager Bill Terry
were mailed yesterday.

This is said not to be the

SOU UTHEASTERN
HITS BACK At
SOUTHERN
By HARRY COSTELLO

Certain member institutions Of
the new Southeastern Conference
are wondering II the Southern
Conference has turned out to be
q vindictive organization.
It will be recalled that IL mem.
bers of the old Southern Confer.
ence Withdrew and formed the
Southeastern. The IS are Ala
bama, Auburn, Florida, Georgia,
Georgia Tech, Kentucky. Louisi-
ana State, Mississippi Aggies. Ole
Miss, Tulane. Tennessee, Sewanee
and Vanderbilt.
The causes Of wonderment in
the Southeastern are the words
spoken and deeds done last Fri.
day and Saturday in Richmond at
the various meetings Of what is
left Of the Southern Conference.
Don't Need Subterfuges
When present members Of the
Southern Conference eliminated
certain bylaws at the Richmond
meetings they made public prop
erty the information that these
trick" bylaws had been placed in
the rules book by certain Of the 13
who withdrew to form the South
eastern. Further. present rnenn-
herS of the Southern, in eliminat-
ing these alleged trick" bylaws,
let 1t be known that they do not
have need for such subterfuges.
Then, to add further to the
fuel for q real fire. present mem
berS of the Southern Conference
passed the resolution calling on
the Association Of Colleges and
Secondary Schools Of the South
ern States, an educational stand
ardizing body, for an inveStiga-
tion of athletics, with particular
reference to recruiting and SubSi-
dizing Of athletes, and asking the
academic group to take away
from guilty colleges the later's
ratings as standard educational
institutions.
It is quite likely that before
the StandardiZing body ruSheS in
to make such an investigation
and pass such a law 1t viii study
the results of the same efforts
by another allied academic group,
the North Central. The latter
standardizing body found that all
is not easy sailing in conducting
Investigations and throwing out
institutions guilty of recruiting
and subsidizing athletes.
All About Football
If it Is true, as the Southern
Conference practically contends,
that the tail is wagging the dog,
the tail being the game of foot
ball, the StandardiZing body will
discover. that it is quite a tail the
dog proposes to deal with. At
least, the North Central to date
has discovered and apprehended
that truth.
From the far South comes the
suggestion that the 10 members
of the present Southern Confer
ence should have thought Of these
various "new" reforms during the
past IL years. A further sug-
gestion from the same source init
mates that perhaps the money
angle played an important part
in the failure of the northern 10
to undertake reformation during
those II years.
All in all, an interesting situa.
ton seems about to develop not
only in athletics in the South, but
as well in education in the South.
