TY COBB GREAT DRAWING
CARD FOR DETROIT TEAM

There are undoubtedly players who
can hit every bit as well as Ty Cobb,
and others who can field and throw
as well as the sensational Georgian,
but where Is there player who day
after day puts so much life into his
he has made his mark, sees nothing
more to strive for. Not so with Cobb.
He plays in every game as II he had
reputation TO make, with the result
that he is perhaps the most valuable
ball player in harness today. barring
none.
There was n suspicion that when 1t
was announced that Ty had signed a
three-year contract with Detroit call
ing for $4,000 a season the figures were
exaggerated, but il can be authorize
lively stated that he actually gets
this salary, and II might be added
that he is worth as much, if not more.
Unlike most ball players, Cobb is an
attraction. True, winning teams al
ways draw crowds, but 1t is easy to
figure that Cobb alone draws more
than enough people to the games ev-
cry season to make up for his salary.
1t can be estimated that Mt least
percent of the attendance In cities
were the Tigers play is brought to
the parks by Cobb.
Cobb and Wagner are no doubt the
highest salaried players today, and
while there is no way of getting the
accurate figures that Wagner's con-
tract calls for IL is safe to say that
IL is not dollar less than $4,000 per
season. and, like Cobb. he is an at

That veteran king of the mat Ed.

for the purpose of deciding which of
the two boys will meet Young Miller,
the worlds welterweight champion, in
finish match, to be decided i'm this
city.
Jack is probably willing to meet the
slippery little Greek, especially IL there
is chance to get on the mat with
Young Miller. whom heshas been clam
oring to meet for the past three
months.
Jack and the Greek VIII probably
meet before the Duluth Athletic club,
and the winner of that match will meet
Young Miller at the Armory, Lyceum
or at the baseball park. A match be-
tween Sailor Jack, should he defeat
the Greek, and Young Miller, will be
one of the greatest matches in this
