TY COBB RAPS FOOTBALL

'Tf football was a daily attrac-
ton it would last about week,
said Ty Cobb, the American
league star, after witnessing a
game between Georgia Tech and
North Carolina.
Its brutality, if nothing else,
would kill it. Saturday afternoon
there were several boys hurt
and put out of the game. This
might attract for a day, but it
would not appeal to America
long. And the spectators had
only a vague idea of what was
happening. 1t was not the easy
game to follow like baseball"
