Never was there an expression with which the writer is so thoroughly in accord.

Of course we mean | that a man must have his rontin- j gent of friends. However, the fel- 1 loti v ho haa nothing but ft lands and registers no enemies well, put him i down as a failure.

Bucking ham. of Memphis. Tenn.. has been ap pointed coach for Denver University football team. By Janies Clarkson. H1CAGO, ILL., Dec. 26.—The Tinker case is still as mud died as ever, but from behind all this mixup comes a voice that tells the writer that the veteran shortstop and recently manager of the Reds will be back with the Cubs next sea son. In a way the entire matter lias taken on a different aspect. To-day Tinker flatly refused to go to Brooklyn, declaring that Chicago is his favored berth and that it is with the West Side team he wants to play next year. He seems to disre gard the $10,000 biinus offer en tirely. This stand by Joe and the fact that President Murphy is in Cincinnati, where he and Garry Herrmann have held a conference lasting hours, makes it appear as though Joe knows more than lie cares to say, that if he dared say it it would be along the lines that the chances of the Cubs getting him back are mighty bright. From one closely connected with the Cub chief comes the story that Murphy yesterday offered Bresnalian and one other Cub in one deal and Bresnalian and two youngsters in ex change for Tinker and that Joe would be made a Cub again within the next few days. Cincinnati sent the story that Murphy was ready to give Bres nahan. Lavender and an outfielder for Tinker. There is something strange in all this mixup and it wouldn’t be sur prising if ii developed that Murphy boss of the Cubs, and Garry Herr mann, chief of the Reds, had closed long ago for Tinker and that ail this wrangle and talk was a lot of press work to keep the National League before the public.
