val Academy. who has kept In close
touch with the condition OF the MEM
berB OF the academy football squad, is
authority for the statement that up to
the last few days the physical shape Of
the Navy players has been much below
the normal. and that there Is every rea-
son to believe that the poor showing is
largely due to this.
The men have generally been below
their proper weight and have been de-
ficient In energy and stamina. He
ascribes II to lack OF exercise and de-
bilitating conditions while on the sum

During the past week there has been a
marked Improvement in physical condi-

TY COBB IS BEST
OF GAMES HTTTERS
Others May Have Had Better Averages, But Cobb Has
Bated When the Foul Strike Rule Has Been
Against Him.
BY SAM CRANE.

There Is little more that can be said
In praise OF Ty Cobb than has already
been written. but his batting average OF
40 per cent that he made the past
season, together with his average Of
40 per cent he accomplished last sea-
son. places him In a class by himself as
a batsman.
During the season OF 1912 he again
came out ahead of those great bat
ters OF the American League-Joe
Jackson, Iris Speaker and Napoleon
Lajoic. To perform that feat Is high
honor enough, but together with that
record he has the better one Of hav-
seasons and bids fair to do the same
for another half dozen years to come,
provided the Detroit club can AFFORD
to keep him that long. with the raises
in salary that he Will demand and by
all right is entitled to get.
Cobbs record OF 40 last season was
the greatest batting that any player
ever succeeded in accomplishing. Other
players have cXcellcd those hgures IN
percentage. as follows:
Duny, ABS. Turner. .i@3. in 1891; BurCh.
.i23: Burkett, .423 in 1885; and lajoic.
40. In 1901, but all those big averages
rule was adopted. and when hattcrs
like Burkett and Duffy could kill the
good on"s" with ridiculous ease by IN
tentIonally, fouling off the ball. and
they did follow up the big averages
for six years hand running.
Cobb Comes Back.
Cobb came right back the past season
with the surprisingly good percentage of
40. No such consistency of batting
has ever been known, although cap"
Anson, Dan Brouthers and also Hans
Wagner have had big consecutive bat
ting periods.
When one stops to think what a .4lC
| batting average means, then It can be
| appreciated. That record tells that
| Cobb. In little over every other time
| at bat, made a base hit. and what does
| that mean to the club and team having
such a wonder in its lineup?
Unfortunately. the Tigers pitching
| stan went all to pieces the past sea-
| son, and Cobb's bludgeon, as nifty as
1t was. could not pull his team out of
the rut.
But see what valuable player Cobb
