There used TO be three ball players
whose wonderful work day in and day
out put them In class by themselves.
Now there are only two. for time has
robbed Hans Wagner OF his skill and
cunning. The great German Is hitting
like an ordinary batsman and ne
doesn't cover the ground he once DID
That leaves Tyrus Cobb and Ma
poleon Lajoie as the greatest players
OF the present and these men Will OPP
nose each other today at Cleveland.
The race for batting honors lies pc
tween these men and just now LaJoie
IN leading. There never were rlval
players whose methods and style dit
fered as do Cobb's and Lajoie's. Their
very appearance are directly opposi-
ton. Cobb Is q thin, nervous cnap
who runs as though propelled by
springs; Lajoie Is solidly construct
ed. easy going man who gives an I'M
preston of always having both feet
ON tho ground. Cobb pursues base
ball waving his hands as though ne
might fy and ending the sprint with
q final leap: Lajoie just sort OF am
bles over where the ball Is coming,
sticks down his hand and picks II up
His very ease OF manner conveys an
idea Of indifference.
At the plate these rivals continue
TO pursue widely diverging lines OF
endeavor. Cobb crowds the plate for
certain kinds OF pitched ball, and Tor
others he steps back He Frances
around and shifts his feet to meet the
occasion. Bad balls he lets go, good
ones he hits. Lajoie selects the GER
tain pitch he wishes TO hit and hits
II. II the ball is high and on the out
side he hits 1t anyway. You can al
most tell when he will offer at ball
because he starts q hop-step and
jump as the pitcher prepares TO dc
liver II. He lunges his whole weight
behind the bat and strikes with wide
free swing.
There is Just one place where Cobb
and Lajoie perorfm alike-they both
will 20 TO second base on the slight

that he offered no objection to such
action.
When the matter of Mr.. Pinchot's

eral members of the investigating
committee intend to question Mr.. Pin
chot about this matter II he does not
volunteer to state all of the facts in
the case.
Several of the investigating com.
mittee are disturbed over the ques-
tion which they have been called
upon to decide, as to whether or not
they will permit Mr.. Pinchot to mar.
rate the conversation which he had
with the president In Salt Lake City
on the subject of Secretary Ballinger
and conservation. The issue is a del
icate one. II is regarded as likely
that the members Of the committee
will confer with the president and
obtain his views before they reach
decision.
