SALARIES ARE TOO HIGH;
JOHNSON AWAITS BIDS
Special to The Telegraph
St. Louis. Mo., Oct. 31.—Gossip con
tinues that Walter Johnson, the fast
pitcher of the Washington Americans,
will pitch for the St. Louis Federals
next season, but Fielder Jones, man
ager of the St. Louis team, would not
admit that Johnson had signed a con
tract.
Jones returned to St. Louis to-day
from a three-day trip. He denied that j
he has seen Johnson, but Indicated he !
was after him. Jones is quoted as
follows:
"I cannot say if Johnson will be ob- j
tained by the St, Louis club. He wants '
a lot of money to come here. Even ;
If we met the salary he was paid this
season by the Washington club it i
would be a good sum. Personally. I
am not In favor of huge salaries for
ball players. They are overpaid now.
Of course. Johnson is a great pitcher.
He is worth anything that he is able
to get."

{COACHES IN BATTLE
AT HARVARD TODAY
I "Hurry-up" Yost Has Hard Oppo
nent in Percy D. Houghton;
Were Star Players
By Associated Press >
New York. Oct. 31.—When the Har
vard and Michigan football teams meet
in the stadium at Cambridge this aft
ernoon the contest will be as much a
battle between coaches as elevens. On
the Michigan side of the field the west
ern gridiron contingent will be in
charge of Fielding H. Yost, while on
the Crimson bench Percy D. Haughton
will direct the Harvard campaign.
Two coaches of greater fame have not
been opposed in football in many
years.
Although differing widely in per
sonality and methods, Haughton and
Yost year in and year out achieve won
ders with the material that reports for
football at the two great universities
which they represent. Haughton is a
coach who talks little, thinks deeply
and is tireless in action. Once the
early season preliminaries are com
pleted, Haughton rules the squad with
an iron hand. He plays no favorites
and his instructions are sharp and to
the point.
Harvard's head coach is a keen stu
dent of football and knows the game
both ancient and modern in every
phase. He is an autocrat on the field,
inclined to be sharp and caustic in his
instructions and remarks and a coach
who believes in hard practice and
plenty of it for both the varsity and
second string players. He is quick to
detect ability in a candidate and is
always looking far ahead, planning
his system and plays to fit the type
of team material at his disposal.
Yost might be aptly termed a foot
ball fanatic. Like Haughton, he was
J. a player and a brilliant one in his
, undergraduate days, but has never
ceased to absorb and keep up with the
rapidly changing game. In fact, many
of the plays and rules now part of the
annual autumn college sport are di
t reetly traceable to the Michigan coach.
On the field he is much more active
5 and demonstrative than Haughton. He
- keeps up a running fire of comment
1 and criticism and frequently jumps
1 into line or back field in order to per
i sonally illustrate just how the play he
i is aiming at should be made. Speed
and dash is almost a mania with Yost
and his constantly repeated phrase,
"Hurry up! Hurry up!" has caused It
to be tacked on to his name in the
west until the general follower of foot
- ball believes that he was baptized
s "Hurry Up Yost."
e Off the field Haughton and Yost are
a as unlike one another as they are
t when in action. Haughton seldom
talks football, while Yost will spend
hours discussing the gome in all its
* phases. Illustrating particular plays
with whatever objects are handy. He
can play a game with eleven chairs or
salt cellars, using a hall or a table, as
the case may be, and never fails to keep
his audience spellbound as he shifts
his team with lightning rapidity. Both
coaches are comparatively wealthy and
men of business affairs and interests
during the months when football Is
dead. •
Penn-State Receives
Football as Prize
Penn State's work at Harvard last
Saturday won favor from Harvard.
After the game "Bill" Hollenbach's
crew was presented with the ball. The
New York Post, referring to this Inci
dent, says:
"Harvard courteously presented the
ball used In Saturday's game to Penn
sylvania State as a memorial of Sat
urday's drawn contest. If these elev
ens from Pennsylvania keep on, they
will be too proud to accept the gift of
a ball as a reward for a tie game.
They will want victory, or no ball. In
the meantime the Crimson's magnan
imity is pleasing, especially so In view
of the fact that the time Is not so re
mote when a tie gime meant an un
seemly squabble over possession of the
ball. Harvard, by the way, has not
been obliged to part with many balls
to smaller opponents. Neither has
Princeton. Yale in recent times has
been obliged to extend the courtesy to
Brown, Washington and Jefferson,
Maine and Colgate."
I
New York, Oct. 31.—Many of the
local baseball experts are Insinuating
tl *.t Arthur Shafer, sometimes called
"Temperamental Tillie," the star third
baseman who deserted the New York
Giants at the end of the season of
1913, may be back in McGraw's line
up next summer. Shafer is due to ar
rive in New York from his California
soon, and it is believed that the New I
York management may Induce him to
return to the game. Shafer has "re- ]
tired" from the game on several occa- j
slons, but the last jump marked the
first time that he remained away from |
his team for a whole season. Many [
believe that with Shafer-in the line-up j
last season the Giants would have won \
the pennant.
