Ty Cobb Satisfied
To Play Ball With
The Detroit Tigers

Publication of a letter sent by Ty
Cobb to President Navin of the Detroit
Baseball club bears out the statement
made that the player has suffered a
change of heart in regard to Detroit
and Is now not only willing to con-
tinue there, but desires to return. The
letter. which was made public recenl-
ly, is sequel to two conversations
the two men have had since Cobb left
Detroit at the close of the season,
when he admits he was dissatisfied
In part 1t says:
Since our talk in New York I have
had one thought on my mind and that
was how foolish I have been to ever
think OF wanting change from De-
troit to some other city. I am abso-
lutely satisfied in Detroit and have no
wish to leave Detroit or Detroit fans
and my treatment by the owners has
been of the very best and for this rea-
son want every one to know that I
am satisfied and want to be loyal to
my club.
THE agreement and offer you gem
erousiy made me in New York has
pleased me and made me feel like I
wanted to do whole lot in some way
for you, and want you to know that
IL is my wish to do all can for you
and the club and that l am for YOU
strong, and will be satisfied to play in
Detroit for you until / end my playing
| days.
though nothing definite is known.
from usually reliable sources there
comes report that the offer to which
Cobb refers involves salary larger
than he drew in 1913, and far in ex-
cess of that that Johnson will get. or
that has been paid to any other ball
player. Cobb, of course, can not sign
while his Fraternity pledge holds him.
but VIII be one of the first in line
wnen ne is released from that 1t is
said that Cobb's position was an i'm
portant feature of the Manufacturing
conference recently and that the letter
will hasten the closing of a two years
contract with the manager.

NEW YORK, Nov. 20.-Gunboat
Smith will be seen here tonight in a
10 round bout with Ed Hogan, Cali
fornia heavy weight, at the Atlantic
Garden Athletic club. Hogan came
east recently with Freddie Welsh and
Harry Pollok and has been training
at Dal Halkins' quarters under the
supervision of Fireman Jim Flynn. He
Is powerfully built and has enough
confidence to believe that he will drop
Smith the moment he lands.
Smith has planned to leave here for
California in a few days to tackle
Arthur Pelkey in San Francisco on
New Year day. Smith says that Pei
key won the title of white champion
when he beat the late Luther McCarty
and that a victory over him will settle
the quetsion OF supremacy.

~ HE majority of the local

why they are willing to play Lo-

IT Is to be regretted that the
lightweight division has thtA-
n ned out to such an extent that
live candidates for the title can
be counted upon the fingers of
one hand and after the count, the
fan who undertakes the task may
still have a couple of fingers to
spare. The answer is that the
lightweight fighters as we'll as
fighters in the other classes are
CONSPICUOUS by their absence.

rUsT supposing that Ritchie
does beat Murphy on December
10: who will they send him in
against? Maybe they can groom
Freddie Welsh, the British title
holder. or else dig up Mat Wells
in a pinch or perhaps fall back
on Leach Cross if he happens to
be successful against Joe Rivers
down in Los Angeles on Thanks
giving day. But then they will
have to stop.
~ HE Chicago contingent has
been boosting Jack White
Oh along and perhaps he is
worthy of a boost, at that, but
away out in this far western
country where champions are
born, bred and developed, they
don't know anything about him.
If a man hopes to succeed In the
ring he must get touch of the
game as it has been played in
California None of them can get
away from this.
WEN MORAN is back here
after his unpleasant invasion
" of Australia and, of course.
he would be willing enough to
hook up with the title holder,
but they would not stand for
anything like this. Moran was
walloped very soundly by VOL
CAST and a short time later
Ritchie took the title away from
the Michigan lad, so the Brit
isher hardly has a lookin any
more.
sTr HE little champion is right I'm
the stand he has taken re-
= garding that match with
Welsh. If the Britisher really
wants to fight, let him fight
right here in California over the
90 round route. The champion
has the right to do the debating
and if Welsh really is seeking ac-
ton, he can get plenty of 1T from
Ritchie, provided that the latter
beats Murphy next month.

the California lad will rule a

he can deliver a punch. The Har-

but his blows lack the force
necessary to flatten the other

has the advantage and the bet

cused of working against the IN
terests of the players.
The trouble between Zim ana
the fraternity began last summer.
Ed Reu1bach, who represented the
players in the Chicago club, asked
Zim for his dues. Zim told him to
go to q place supposed to be very
warm. Zim then told Manager
Evers that Reulbach was hound
ing him, and Evers In turn re-
ported the matter to President
Murphy. Murphy promptly wrote
a note to Reulbach. In which he
intimated that it would be Just as
well IL the player paid more at
tention to his work as pitcher
and less to the Players frater-
nifty. Shortly after this Reui-
bach was traded to the Brooklyn
club
Reulbach reported the matter
to the fraternity. Another de-
mand was made on Zimmerman
for his dues. Zim refused to
pay. The fraternity then voted
to expel him, and this was done.

Of the stakes carry $4,000 added and
three guaranteed value Of $4,000. Il
is estimated that the cost of these

Indian tepees may have to be used

Consequently Superintendent J. W.

for the government probably will
