De FATE IS BACK
Young Infield Star Won Thurs
days Game for Topeka.
Pitchers Only Talent the Saw
ages Now Need.

Tony DEBATE the biggest infield find
John Savage has made since he took
over the Topeka Western league club,
rejoined the Savages in Omaha after
the blow up of the Virginia club of
the Northern league and it was entire
ly through his presence in the line
up that the Engle crew took the third
game of the Rourk series from the
chesty league leaders by the count of
TO 2.
DEBATE was injected into the line
up in Cochran'S place at short and
Cochran was sent to the outfield to re-
lieve Schweitzer temporarily. And
from the way the new recruit per-
formed it seems that he will fit into
shortstop as smoothly as Goodwin has
fit into the keystone position and that
Cochran, if he hangs on, will have to
root out some other berth for himself.
Won Hand in Eighth.
IT was in the eighth inning that
DEBATES stick work put the game on
deposit. With two on Cochran was
walked tic get at DEBATE and the latter
promptly poled out a two-bagger that
sent in the winning runs. Up to this
performance the Omahogs had held
one-run lead and it looked like they
were about to get away with victory
in spite of the fact that Pete" Hen
ming was pitching winning ball.
As to whether or not DEBATE will
push Cochran off the team is not
known, but it is considered certain that
Savage will not let the promising
youngster get out of his clutches
again.
No announcement has been made
by Savage as to the future personnel
of his pitching staff, and this is giving
the Topeka supporters their greatest
uneasiness Just now The sending of
Lambeth to the Cleveland big tent,
the releasing of West, VOORHEES, and
Dashner leaves Engles staff very
muchly shot to pieces, but it is taken
for granted that other men are under
contract to fill the gaps
A Good Move.
While it seems on the face of it
that the releasing of four pitchers at
one time is rather radical, still when
it is considered that Lambeth was the
only one of the four who was doing
valuable work, the results should not
be so disastrous, and if new talent of
any caliber can be procured it will
probably mean the rounding out of
the team in better shape than ever
before.
Since EngIe took charge it has been

TVS DISPOSITION
MAY FORCE HIM
TO GIVE UP GAME

In spite of the denials of rumors
that Ty Cobb will quit the game, it
looks at times as though the temper
amental Georgian was pretty thor
oughly sick of the business. He has
never been able to stand any sort of
criticism and this season with his
trouble in hitting a real stride he's
been unusually sensitive about it. Ty
knows that nothing can stop the fans
from riding him. if they want to do
it and more than once he has told
his teammates and others that he
thought his only hope was to retire
from the game. Hugh Jennings has
said that he would not blame Cobb
if he did want to quit as the fans have
treated him so roughly. "a player is
willing to stand reasonable criticism. .
says Hugh, but it isn't right that he
should be so outrageously insulted just
because he fails to make a hit every

On the slightest chance he would
ike the net himself, following a lob,
and there his volleying and smashes
were finely executed. Mitchell also
executed some beautiful sideline
passes is Nettels would try to run in.
His work in all departments from SER
vice to ground strokes was superior to
Nettels's
Nettels, however, is working hard
and by the end of the season, should
he get more speed on his service and
better his overhead work and volleys,
may be in the upper five of the State
Journals Topeka ranking. He has
plenty of courage and energy and a
little more experience should enable
his net style of game to win easily
over the backcourt style of play used
by the majority of Topeka players.

DILLON LOSES ON POINTS.
Levinslxy Given Popular Decision ia
10 Round Baltimore Bout.

Baltimore, Nd, July 14.-Jack Dill
lon, of Indianapolis, and Battling Lee
whisky, of New York, 1ight-heavy-
weights, fought a ten-round no-deci-
sion bout at Oriole Park here. The
New Yorker outpointed the Hoosier
in all but the first and sixth rounds,
in which Dillon had a shade the bet
ter of it, and the fourth, which was
even.
The bout originally was intended to
go fifteen rounds to a decision but
the comparatively small attendance
brought about a lengthy discussion
between the battlers and promoters
which resulted in a compromise. 1t
was announced the fighters had
waived their guarantees and agreed
upon 10-round exhibition match
with no decision They fought some
what cautiously during the first three
rounds. There was some rough work
in the fourth session when Dillon
forced the fighting and tried for a
knockout. Levinsky met him at his
own game, however, and both men hit
and missed in equal proportion.
