cooMBs' GREAT PITCHING.
Kttredge Says Mack Star Has Mas
tered Most Difficult Curves.


Il notice they are printing stories
about Jack Coombs and how he didn't
know how to pitch until this year,
remarked Malachi Kittredge, Detroit
scout. Kit caught for years and years
and is a close observer of baseball,
particularly pitching. That is why his
comment on Coombs is of more than
ordinary weight.
"Coombs has started to pitch great
ball because he has mastered the
greatest of all pitching assets, the
drop ball that does not break from the
right handed batters. l don't mean one
of the out drops, but a ball that comes
up To the plate squarely in the center
and falls from one to two feet without
changing its lateral direction.
Amos Rusie had that ball, and he
threw IL with tremendous speed,
Rusie pitched that drop thing and
mixed il up with a fast one in close,
and the batter who could meet 1t with
any regularity never lived. They tell
me that Ramsey and other old timers
depended on 1t extensively"
COMBS certainly did give a fine ex-
hibition of pitching on his recent APP
pearance in Detroit. Batters like Sam
Crawford who usually hit the ball
hard, swung and missed with great
frequency. Time after time Crawford
hit on top of the drop. and nobody
seemed able to do much with 1t.

RUeE's WIFE LEAVES HIM.
Says He Still Loves Her and Won't
Seek Divorce.

Newark. n. j., Oct. 11.-Avowing his
affection for the wife who left him
yesterday and declaring he will not
seek a divorce, although he will not
contest any action she may bring,
"Rube" Waddell. the baseball pitcher,
today told of the wreck of his second
matrimonial venture. 1t took exactly
six months for the couple TO discover
That their souls were not attuned. The
trouble according to the giraffe
"Rube", was incompatibility.
An incident that was the beginning
of the trouble between the big pitcher
and his handsome young bride occur
red in st. Louis, when the girl, with
out his consent, appeared at the Col
osseum Theatre in a pajama act. She
also. he said, made him the object OF
1eers by habitually wearing skirts
the brevity of which was calculated
to make her look even younger then
she really was.

PROF" IN QUARANTINE SO
U. OF M. STAR CANNOT PLAY

Ann Arbor, Mich, oct. 12.-Prob-
ably Prof. Jerry Knowlton, sage OF
the Michigan law faculty. didn't know
how much trouble he was making for
the Wolverine football team when he
unwittingly ran into quarantine at
the port of New York. He was return
ing from Europe, where he spent the
last half OF his summers vacation.
when the boat on which he had taken
passage was quarantined, resulting In

been in session nearly a week.
Ordinarily one professor more or
less makes little difference to a col
lege football team. particularly i'm an
institution like Michigan, where there
are professors enough and To spare.
But Knowlton is different-and in this
one case his absence is a severe blow
to Michigan's early season chances
II is this wise:
Last spring Prof. Knowlton decid-
ed that Thompson, present varsity
fulback, hadn't done sufficient good
work is the course I'm contracts to JUS
tify his passing the course, so Knowl-
ton gave him condition. Conditions
and intercollegiate athletics don't &c
very well together, so it was up tC
Thompson to remove the "con" this
fall before he could take part in any
of Michigan's games. So he studied
hard all summer and came back e

pass half dozen examinations. III
reported to Coach Yost at Whitmor'
Lake, confident that by the time tn
first game of the season came aroun'
he would be ready for duty.
But he reckoned without Knowlton
Just as Knowlton reckoned withou
the quarantine. Now Prof. Knowltoi
is held up at New York, while Thomp
son is pining for a chance to take tn
examination that would clear up hi
record and let him play football. AS
is. he can't take the examination unit
next week. and i'm the meantime Mich

EDDIE M'COORTY
TO MEET KLAUS
BADGER STAR WILL FACE cLEV-
Err PITTSBURG M DIE
WEIGHT AT MILWAUKEE
FRIDAY EVENING.

Milwaukee, wis, oct. Zone of
the principal sporting events of the
week will occur IN this city on Friday
evening when Eddie McGOOrty, the
crack Oshkosh middleweight will face
Frank Klaus OF Pittsburg i'm a ten
round no decision bout. Both men are
training hard for the contest and AS 1t
is genarally conceded that the men are
quite evenly matched, the outcome is
very much in doubt.
Klaus is regarded by many as the
coming worlds champion middle
weight. He has demonstrated his
prowess in many hard fought battles
and has barred no one from considera-
I ton In McGoorty he will face an ex-
ceptionally clever and capable boy.
McGoorty has been advancing rapidly
within the past two years and today
ne occupies a prominent place In tie
circle of the elect, which includes such
notable battlers as Stanley Ketchel,
Billy Papke Harry Lewis and Frank
Klaus. McGoorty's most noteworthy
performance of late was a fast ten
round affair with Hugo Kelly of Chi
cage, i'm Milwaukee some months ago,
in which he was conceded TO have
slight advantage.
If Klaus lives up To all the lattering
things that have been said of him.
ring followers may expect battle OF
more than ordinary merit. Klaus is
heralded as a born fighter, who has
in an amazing short space of time.

him as one of the glove wonders Of
the age. II is not TO any accidental

by clever press agents that Klaus owes

, profession. Under the clever and
. clean management of George Engel
> himself a glovesman Of note i'm his

INJURIES MAGNIFlED.
Effort Should Be Made to Avoid APP
pearance Of Exaggeration.

An exaggeration of football injuries
this fall by individuals or the press Is
greatly to be deplored. That 1t Is
easy to exaggcrate was proved last
winter when Il conservative western
paper gathered from apparently trust
worthy sources a compilation of IA
talities and injuries which, together
made strong indictment against the
game as played by our colleges; but
later and more thorough investiga-
ton not only disclosed unwarranted
exaggeration. but proved that many
of the accidents and fatalities attri-
buted to football were due to other
causes.
Football is undergoing crucial
test as q sport fit for our colleges and
schools. and while II should be able
to stand the limelight of truth, II
should have fair play from all quar-
tiers.
Some form of football is sure to be
played. Let us help. rather than ham

ARE EVENLY MATCHED.

New York. oct. 1.-The post-sea-
son series of baseball games this year
arc attracting unusual attention owing
TO the fact that the contendcrs In each
series finished i'm the same relative
position In their respective leagues.
This fact. II is argued. should give a
good line on the relative strength of
the National and American leagues.
Neither of the New York teams can
now be ousted from second place, and
Cleveland and Cincinnati, which are
to play for the Ohio championship. are
both safely anchored in fifth place.
This Is the first time that such n con-
dition has prevailed in the inter-
league series,
