LELIVELT LIKE COBB

Have you paid particular atten-
lar attention to the way Jack Leli-
welt bats?
If you have you may have noticed
the similarity of his style to that of
Ty Cobb, the present batting peer of
the American League. Both men
stand very close to the plate, with
feet apart, and the body about three
quarters facing the pitcher. When
the ball is delivered, unless it is
bad and on the inside, they both step
diagonally into it, and it is very
seldom that either hits high into the
air.
Besides possessing the ability to
clout the ball, our new center fielder
is an aggressive baserunner, and
with a season or so of experience
may make a worthy rival for the
famous Georgian.

Manager Wakes Up This Morning and Finds No Sue

Remainder of Season
By THOMAS S. RICE.

He and Nickerson and Fred Lake get to-
gether every night and tell one another
so often that they are travelling with
pennant winners, that they have raohed
the point where they take themselves
seriously. We mentioned this yesterday,
but after further talk with them we
found they were getting worse every
minute, and their friends should at
tend TO them at once. Boston has a
good and likely team. but Il is too young
for flags, and our impression Is that
II VIII still be too young next year. but
II should be a great contender next
season and II We all live and nothing

him he should be glad TO be alive in

diately goes down the line Of all the
