DOeoOOoOooooos

This is story of Tyrus Ray
mond Cobb. frequently billed as
the greatest player baseball has
ever produced and always re-
ferred to as the most advertised
player in the business. Frank
Navin, owner of the Detroit IT,
gers, the man who has become
rich through this same advertis-
ing. appears in a minor role.
Cobb's three-year contract with
the Detroit club expires at the end
of this season. Strange as 1t may
seem, Cobb has a pretty good idea
Of his value to a ball club, of his
worth as a player an his ability
to make the turnstiles click faster
than ever before.
For the last three years Cob b
has been playing for a salary re-
liably reported to be $4,000, prob
ably the highest stipend paid to
any mere player. Cobb knows
that at that price he is dirt cheap.
Navin, of course, knows that same
thing.
Cobb hasn't said what his SAL
airy will be next year, but you can
go broke that the figures in the
contract will be very nearly what
Cobb wants.
He has asked a few of his init
mate friends il they thought that
$4,000 would be enough for one
years salary. That furnishes a
pretty good line on what Cobb will
ask for next year.
And he will get 1t, too. The De-
troit team is now the best draw
Ing card on the road that there is
in baseball.
Beg pardon! Cobb il the best
drawing card, for without the
Georgian, the Tigers would be on
ly a mediocre attraction.
In every city in the American
league thousands of fans go to see
not the Tigers play, but the Tiger
play, that Tiger being none other
than Cobb. The statement that
Cobb pulls off something start
ling In every game would be
trffle extravagant, but you can
never tell when he will score from
first on an inffefd hit, steal sec
ond, third and home In quick sue
cession or pull off q wonderful
catch In outfield.
All Of these things of course
make Cobb q rawing car. But
they aren't the only things. On
and off the field, Cobb's artistic
temperament Is always In evY-
oence. Fans want to see the
player who became peeved be-
cause a mere hotel clerk had the
audacity to refuse to change his
room when Cobb demanded a
switch.
They want to see the man who
mad the temerity to climb into
the stands in New York and pum-
mel a rooter who was annoying
him. Ae
They all want to see the man
who started the baseball strike.
which gave baseball moguls a Iot
TO think about and eventually led
to the formation of the PLAYERS
union.

NEW YORK, Aug. 24.-Keen
disappointment is felt by the fans
today over the proposed calling
off of the ten round bout between
Jack johnson and Joe jeanette.
Mcmahon brothers, who were to
have staged the fight here Sep

after a long conference behind

None Of these fans will overlook
the opportunity of seing the man
who was stabbed by Detroit thugs
and then made these same thugs
get down on their knees when
they discovered his identity.
There is only one Cobb. Prob
ably there will never be another.
He probably has more enemies
than any other man in baseball.
His teammates detest him; play
ers on other teams hate him, but
all are forced to admit that as a
ball player he is in a class by
himself.
In view Of these things, Mr..
