“BRINGING UP FATHER—TEN YEARS AGO.”

TY COBB'S MRS LOOMING
AS BIG PENNANT CONTENDERS
By THOMAS L. CUMMISKEY
AUGUSTA, Ga., March 23.—It
surely ilooks as though Ty Cobb an I
the Tigers are going to put on a
corking t'ine act in the bi,4 show this
season. One can't get any other
conclusion after seeing them going
througli all manner of baseball stunu
here at the okl Augusta ball park.
Just ask Ty if he thinks hell win
the pennant and he smiles and says
he will get second or third place.
Last year he said: "Oh, about
sixth place for us," and then finished
third. Think it over.
As we see it. Ty doesn't w :l to
plant any prediction of a pjanatr
in the minds of the good t»-:lro!>
folk. No one knows belter tnan he I
what strange things happen in urse-|
•ball, but he has hopes, oh y His;
smile shows it.
We don't know what most baseball I
ctitics think ot the Tigers, fit we I
d£ know that quite a few scratch j
their heads and only uproot strands I
trying to figure who will really stop i
them.
They'll certainly take a lot of nop i
ping.
Did you ever liear of a club having
12 regulars hitting .300 or better, I
mostly better? Weil. Ty Cobb cer-j
tainly has them, and here they are.j
counting last year's averages:
Cobb, 401; Heilman, .356; Haney.
.252; Woodall. .344; Veach, .327; j
Kothergill, .331; Rassler. .323; Pratt, j
.308; 'Flagstead, .308; Roy Moore. I
.308; Bine, .300; Rigney, .300.
Quite a dozen, eh?
Hit .376
Then there is Heine Manusli, om-j
fielder from Omaha, who hit for .3701
and who, Cobb says, quietly, “looks |
to have the makings of a fine ball j
player.”
This six foot-two, 100-pound Ala
baman has made quite a hit with Ty,
all right.
Another player who hit 'in the
select in Ms league is Cliff Brady,
Rochester second baseman. We hear
he is pretty sure to be retained.
Computed on last season's aver
ages, Cobb can put in nine men who
bat for a grand totail average of .334.
If this isn't wonderful then Pull
man porters always refuse tips
The men are in regular batting
order:
Blue, first base; Haney, third base;
Cobb, center field; Veach, left, field;
Heilman, right field; Pratt, second
base; Rigney, shortstop; Woodall,
catcher; Moore, pitcher.
Shows Promise
By the way. Cobb says he believes
Moore, a castoff by Connie Mack,
will be a great pitcher if he learns
control. The pitcher is undergoing
a change in delivery to try and
get it
Another wild pitcher Cobb and his
associates are endeavoring to tame
is “Rip" ColMns. the Texas ranger,
.recently of the Boston Red Sox.
“I'm counting a lot on Collins,”
said Cobb. “Dont overlook that this
fellow won seven out of his last
eight games with a bad tail-end club.”
Ty ,'is figuring on having a staff of
nine pitchers, the way they shape
up at present. They are, Southpaws
Ray Francis. Roy Moore. Bert Cole:
right handers Herman PiUette. .Syl
vester Johnson, Collin-. George Daus-t
and either Kenneth Holloway, a very
promising new comer, or Olsen, with
the club last season.
The infield will be Blue, first;
Pratt, second; Rigney, ‘■hoi", and
e>ither Jones or Haney at third. It
assays as pretty high class.
Cutshaw, veteran second baseman;
Johnny Kerr, a likely-looking short
stop front Denver, anti Brady seem
sure to be held for substitutes. Cobb
intends to be strong in substitutes
this year. It's been a bugaboo in
the past.
In the outfield, the great trio of
Cobb. Heilman and Veach will per
form as usual with Fothe.rgill and
Manush or Falsfead as hitting sub
stitutes.
For Catching
John Bassler. Larry Woodall and j
Clyde Manson are down for thnj
catching department with a c.ritice.

conditioning after two week- here
The way Cobb goes after til n re
minds us of a circus ring master
He is hither and thither, advising
them, showing them how, command
ing.
The impression can’t ho muffed
either, that Cobb has radiated a lot
of his pep and snap into the players,
tt is truly remarkable the way Ty
ha» the outfit running.
Harry Heilman showed Cobb how
he felt toward him by knocking four
falls with stuff on them. too. over
the center field fence 3fi0 feet from
the home plat ■. France. .Johnson,
Pillette and Moore, all looked alike
to Heilman.
We asked a player what nationality
Henry (“Heine”) Manttsh was. "He’s
an Alabaman," said the player.
