A holdout Is a holdout until tho t-ea-on starts. If the dub on nor weakens anoVcomes through with a raise much Joy results, but If thero ts nothing dolnc In getting a raJso In talary tho old figures look healthy enough for ono more season. A flock of contracts should pour into the offices of the club owners until the teams Ieao on their tialnlug Jaunts. Only a few tall players hae carried out their threats to rotlre In tho .past. They flgute It Is better to ktruggle along on fho or six hundred , a month during the ummer than beating tho factory whistle at 7 a. in. and working until 5:to p. m. at J3 lwr da- That is the best argument against holding out and It hau brought many plajers in lint The big holdout of toe season, however, is none other than Ty Cobb. Tyrus has not yet signed a contract and no one Is certain that ho will. His old agreement, which oiled for a $20 000 &alarj, was up last 3 car, and perhaps he wants more. At any rale, Cobb is in a position to retire If ho cares to and will bo a difficult man to handlo He has been receiving ths largest salary oer paid to a bill pl.ijcr, but was worth it as a gato attrac tion. He also kept Detroit In the race for the pennant. The chances are the Georgian will be well taken care of, hi ho 1b too aluablo a man to keep on the sidelines. Joe Bush also is recalcitrant. He admitted It the other night, and says ho will not play ball this jcar unlets Harrv Frazee boostB the pay check. Bullet Joe lives in Philadelphia and has been working at Cramps' all winter. JJXLESB Joe falls in line soon he is likely to miss the lied Sox U boat, which sails from A"eu ork next Monday. Writer's Cramp Would Have Helped This Holdout A GREAT ball p!aor once decided to become a holdout and put ocr something new which brought him a slight increase In salary. It was about eight years ago, and the player, whose numo wo will not mention, was the best pitcher the White Sox e er had Ho w as successful tho pre vious ) ear, won many ball games and becamr a big attraction at tho gate. Charley Comlskey sent him a contract, which was returned unsigned. A few weeks later a letter arrived, containing two pages of perfectly good and well written reasons why an Incrcaso in salary should bo granted. There were many whjs, wherefores and be it rcbolvcd stuff In the note, all of which, did not mako a hit with Comlskey. He threw the letter on his desk, sala he wouldn't come through with another penny, but finally relented and gao tho plajrr one half as much as he asked. That was satisfactory and the contract was signed. The day boforc tho club left for the training camp this plajer blew Into town and visited the Old Roman It was Just a friendly call but on the player's side only. Calling the athlete Into his private office, Comlskey, opened up on him. "What do you mean by sending me that lawyer's letter last winter when jou kicked about the contract?" he demanded "No lawyer never wrote that thero letter," replied the player. "Who wrote it?" "I did." r . "Do you mean to tell me," stormed Comiskos , ' that you handed me all of those wherefores and whereases and worked a typewriter?" "Surest thing you know," was the answer "Quit kidding me," said Charley. "You are talking through. our hat. ' Tou never wrote that note; ou had a lawver do the Job and t can proyo it. Anyway, jou would have received $1000 moip It ou had mado the kick yourself. ((MOW listen. I knou) you didn't write a hut of that letter, be- cause I saw one you. had loriiicn to your tailor on the Xorth Bide. Remember it? WcXl, you. said, 'Please make m-c a blue suit like the other one.'

J-The community plan has not worked out very well In the Mourd City and the, 600 stockholders aro said to have disposed of their holdliga to make a sale' possible. Russell Gardner, a wealthy sportsman and b-other of th Governor of Missouri, Is ready to take ov er tho club, and is in New York today conferring with President Branch Rickey and Vice Presdent Jones on the purchase prjee. The Cards have been slated for the auction block for years Vor ame reason or' other there never was enough money to conduct affairs pjjp rlythere were few purchases of players and the team struggled along in last place. The fans deserted them and very slim crowds turned out to.iee the games. It has been a losing proposition, and the only thing left, to do was to sell the club. It is almost certain that Gardner will be the next owner. He has tie money to get good players, and If the price Is not too high an announce ment of the change can be expected If the deal goes through it will change hands-. this yeai. Sfoneham over the Braves, thus proving there money in our great national pastime. Owner Grant stepped into a bunch of trouble at the start. Ho paid his ball players what he thought they some and fired others. Most of tho still is on the waiting list. The Stormy Petrel has a 110,000 contract, but Grant says It Is too much. He wanted to cut lt,put Charley objected. THEREFORE, llerzoo is slated Jor another job and probably will land" with the Yankees. It is said he has been waived out of " the National League. fTlHIRTT members of the Phillies' ball club will depart for Chai lotted -.5.C.,von Monday, March 24, according to the dope handed out by Bill vBhetUllne.

As he Is an authority on boxing, he devoted much time to this branch of sport In the practice drills, he located one boy who possessed fighting ability. He was a memoer or tne u, a. marines This marine was so good that he soon was made an assistant boxing Instructor. This assistant annexed the service title a few months ago when the judges awarded him the decision over Sailor Burke at the Service Club Despite this triumph, tho champion, Al Thompson, was unable to get a chance at one of the local clubs. Jack JTagen tried to convince the promoters that the marine had the goods, but It was futile Finally Johnny Burns, of the Cambria, decided to take a chance. On Friday night, March 21. the service champion will meet Willie McCloskey In the Cambria semlwlnd-up.

PAUL Mc OLLA BJURSTKDT, tho Norse wonder, who Is to the tennis game what Ralph De Palma Is to the auto mobile sport, Is going to be put to the supremo test this Hummer, whether she remtlns In this country and defends her title as the national women's singles champion or takes a trip to England to add the tlngl sh crown to her already long list According to the reports which are be conlng more numerous as the summer rolls near. Mile. Suzanne Lenglcn, the French girl whose plajlng against the American stars abtoad has renewed ten nis Interest In France, is bound to meet Miss Bjurstedt When It ivvas stated that Miss Bjurstedt would default her American title to try for the English one, Mile. Icngleu announced she would compete In the London event But since thut time the NorBo sen sation has changed her mind and nt piesent Is undecided where to play In June. She told Joseph Jennings, chair man of ihe tennis committee of the Philadelphia Cricket Club, wh'ch club staged the women's championship sev eral weeks ago, that she didn't know definitely whether she would go abroad (Sr remain here. She still Is keeping it a secret and the many women players who have hopes of winning a national title afe. on tho anxious bench May Play Hero vBut not to be outdone, the French star ha. hinted thut she would like to make a trip to this country. This, of course, would mean her entrance Into virtually all the leading tennis tournaments. It Is not known when she will make tho trip. Tennis devotees In tho East are hoping that It will be In the spring so that she can play in the national event at St. Martins Only a short time ago, paired wIFFi M. Negro, a professional, she defeated Cap lain n Norrls Williams and M. Alber ran In a five-set match. Her tlctory In doublet over Captain Williams lends color to the claim, for Williams and his partner had a chance after the first two sets. The London Field says that Williams's lack of practice must not be overlooked, but the attention which has been given the match shows that It has at least set the tennis experts thinking. Harry Mac Ncal, the professional at Heights Ca sino, In Brooklyn, knows Mile Lenglcn's game of four years ago very well and speaks highly of it. Mies Bjurstedt Has Improved Every ono who Is familiar with Miss Bjurstedt's record believes that sho has Improved measurably since 1017, when her matches with Mlsa Browne were tho feature of an exhibition schedule played for the association's ambulance fund. The fact that this Improvement Is marked leads h,er admirers to believe that she would be able to defeat Mllo. Lenglen, while Mlsa Browne's friends aro equally certain that she could turn the trick.

POLLOCK rpHE real American gamo Is regain- lng popularity at Penn. With three guesses the average follower of ath letics wouldn't name tho sport. Base ball? No. Football? No. Track? No. Lacrosse. It hasn't been more than a decade and a halt ago when every man who reported for ths team automatically became a member of the varsity aggre gation. Some seasons games had to be canceled because there were not enough players. Not so now. Any student who makey the 'Red and Blue lacrosse twelve Is a crackerjack with the stick, for thero are a half hundred or more who are trjlng to take his .ob from hint. Lacrosse has had a varied career at the University. It has been only re cently that It has gained real popu larity, yet It dates as tar back In his tory as the old Indian tribes, when the game was played with crude hand-made sticks and the goal posts were a mile apart It Is classed as the oldest game in the sport annuals, j.et It Is compara tively unknown Squad Too Big Under the guidance of Coach Clar- enco H. Goldsmith, the progress of the game has been developed to such an extent that tho Hed and Blue tutor now finds himself with a squad too big to handle and get satisfactory team re sults. Heretofore Coach Goldsmith has paid more attention to the Inexperienced player than to the veteran, with an aim of making the game popular as well as taking care of the physical development of tho Individual. He has divided his time among the candidates without laying stress on team work. This .car things aro going to be different. Within a short time a group of the best players will be selected and Coach Goldsmith will direct all his energy toward building up a team good enough to lahd the Intercollegiate championship, one honor that never has gone to a Red and Blue combination. Eleven Veterans Of the sauad of seventy-odd candi dates there are eleven men who have played the sport at the University prior to this season With these men and others who look best. Coach Goldsmith will spend most of his time, and he Is sure that the final twelve will put up a great battle for the title. The eleven veterans are Captain Tank James, Val Hattlmer, Waxman, Strasser, Downs, Dreyfus, Well, Schaub, DeKorn, Temple and Frey. " Besides the men w ho are out for the team already, two new candidates who know something about the sport will re port next week. They are Bud Hopper, the All-American football end, and Heine Bourne, the University champion llghtheavvw eight boxer. Nine games will be plaved during the season, one with Syracuse, Hobart, Stevens, Lehigh, Johns Hopkins, Cres cent A. C, and Yale, and two with Swarthmore It also 1b probable that a contest will be arranged with the Navy at Annapolis.
