the latter discover that Baugh has a
.ong-term contract. The brass hats
OF the outfit admit they are trying to
sign Sammy, and that is all.
Meanwhile, Baugh isn't the only per-
son speculating on the wise thing to
do. Sam collected $4,000 from the
Redskins last year. He surprised with
his superlative performances. Almost
s1ngle-handedly he defeated the Bears
Tor the title. In addition to his un-
matchable passing he blossomed into
. fine ball cdrrier. an improved punter
and q passable blocker. In short, the
nne college passer and kicker became
. real football player.
That he deserves a boost in stipend
Is denied by nobody, but there is some
question as to Baugh's wisdom if he
signs q 3-year contract. If he
continues to improve, he will be worth
more In 1899 than he was in 1888.
That Is to say nothing of 1910. BY
signing for three years he will get the
same salary each year.
