second team again lie did ft last year and is anxious to wipe out tho memories of some reverses his squad met with at that time Nobody through yesterday with any announcement that Detroit did not look good to him in the springtime Ty Cobb was theonly letter writer to be heard from The Georgian is rather fussy about his uniforms and he has been waiting to reach his Atlanta tailor to have his measurements taken having been ih the country for the past few weeks 'He forwarded his measurements blank together with a note in which he said that re porting day could hot come too quickly and that he would meet the boys at San Antonio Texas Tonus in Trouble Some of those towns in which De troit is booked to play this spring appear to be having their troubles A few days ago attention was called to the fact that Galveston where Washington is to train is in a bad way and that Jack Warner who is to manage and have a half interest in tlie team of that town has threatened to quit the job unless the citizens come through with some money Detroit has no special interest in that plaint but it has an interest in the affairs of Austin inasmuch as the Tiges are slated to play a Saturday and a Sunday game in the capital city The backers of the Austin club have made the same announcement as was made by those of Galveston saying that unless a bonus is put up to meet possible deficits there may be no team It is believed that this trou ble will be straightened out and that the Detroit club will escape any embarrassment In view of the fight that certain towns have been making to get into tlie Texas league and the howls that the organization has been making because the national board will not allow it to advance from class to class these tales sound queer They are having more trou ble in Texas than the ordinary class league ever experiences tn any one winter EASTERN ATER BORDER LEAGUE OUTSIDE TEAMS IS ORGANIZED Indian Basketbailers Leave To day to Play Three State High School ives

9 176 1 9 HOLLAND sp a 1 8 1 Tot 1672 averaer average Giving of blocking as ho ever displayed in his better days as a boxer the vet eran Danny McMahon not only held his younger and stronger opponent Gerhard to a draw at the Windsor A last evening but demonstrated that though he has been considered' "all for several years he still retains enough of the old ability to hold his own with the present crop of featherweights hereabouts McMahon is by no means the Danny of old but he showed in his contest last night that he has not gone so far as some were wont to assert McMahon picked himself out of the scrap heap a ver itable wreck trained with an earn estness that surprised even his stanchest supporters and Showed to a crowded house last night that there are still a few more contests left in his once rugged frame Never oncebreaking ground to any nottceableyextent he met Ger hard half wayjand at times forced the going Danny appeared to haye the old hitting power behind his blows but long absence from active ring work caused a tendency on the veteran's parr to be wild and many well meant efforts were wasted that had thy landed right would have doubtless brought home the money Gerhard never over anxious to carrv the going to an opponent seemed perfectly contented to meet the older man at long range and to this more than to anything else can be attributed the fact that ha carrva away the lions share of the honors Had he pressed the fighting more there is a chance the veteran whose legs were not in too good shade would have succumbed had the pace been fast enough As it was McMahon seemed to grow stronger as the contest progressed and in the final round sjiowed Ger hard up as a novice by his clever blocking and generalship Clever Blocking by Danny Tt waz in the seventh and final rounds that McMahon save the clever exhibition of blocking and It is doubtful if Ger hard landed a single solid blow Danny cool and collected never moving out of his tracks showed a defense that brought howls of approval from the crowd Gerhard almd no less than 20 blows at ail parts of bls body not one of which connected with McMahons person other than his arms At tho end of the contest Danny was given rous ing cheers the like of which he has not heard In many days Johnny Wilson and Tommy Hudson the two solidly built 122 pounders wad ed through six rounds to tougli going to a draw Hudson who Is developed like a wrestler acted more like a Mar athon runner and he kept Wilson on his toes all the time to catch up John ny however had him gauged in the final session and he handed out
