Speakers Chane e.

Iris Speaker has started out to give
cobb Il battle all the way through the
stretch. Speaker battcd 1888 in 1912
and .3GG in 1913. He fell below those
heights in 1914 and 1918. but 1916 finds
iris back upon another rampage.
Just ut present he is only shade I'M
der 400. ana he is hitting the ball with
greater confidence than he has ever
shown. There seems to be something
i'm the atmosphere Of Cleveland that
produces batting greatness. for the two
who came closer to nipping Ty were
Laioic in 1910 and Jackson in 1911,
both batting under Clcvcland's banner
There is a chance that Speaker will
succeed where Laiuie and Jackson fail
ed. but he will find little time to rest
until October if the gay and festive
trick Is to be turned.

Who VIII Beat II?

Ii Ty leads his league again what
epoch Of the game is to produce a man
who can beat this mark? Wagner and
Laioic were supeiincn at bat. and they
have been at it for twenty years, yet
neither has been able to equal half
this reign in the merry kingdom OF
Swat
To beat out 121 major league ball
players for ten years is something more
than prodigious task. 1t is the one
record, if there is any such, that will
mover he beaten until even Time itself
is too gray and feeble to continue the
journey.
cobb up to the present writing has
played i'm exactly 1,41G big league
gaines and in that time has pounded
out 1876 base hits, an average of al
most one aud a half hits TO each game
