AS RESULT OF SCRAP
Cobb -Herzog Battle Likely to
Stop Exhibition Dates
Between Clubs.

DALLAS, Tex, April 1.-The Giants
and Tigers may call of their exhibi-
tion games as a result of bad blood
between the players, which culmi-
mated in a night between Ty Cobb and
Charley Herzog.
Last night, in a barred room of the
Oriental Hotel, Herzog and Cobb met
in hstic combat. It was no mere
brawl. Each player was properly
seconded, and after Herzog had been
knocked down three times and con-
siderably marked up, he conceded de-
feat.
The Giant agreed that Cobb was
the better man, but only physically.
The combatants shook hands, but
they never again will address each
other in friendly tones. The spiking
and the battle last night have aroused
the most belligerent feeling yet de-
veloped between members of major
league clubs in the modern era of
baseball.
Cobb's defeat OF Herzog in the fist
fight was only natural, and everybody
expected II. Herzog was given credit
for his demand that the Tiger bat
ting star meet him behind barred
doors. Cobb bad an advantage of
more than thirty pounds and is the
stronger man
The trouble between the Giants and
the Tigers, and HerZog' and Cobb in
particular, had its origin at Fort
Worth Friday. The players of both
teams rode" each other all over the
park. Bad blood was stirred up. Cobb
told a friend that he was going to go
after Herzog, and in the third round
OF the game Cobb did get the Giant
Cobb's friends statement and the
deliberation OF Cobb's action showed
plainly that the spiking was inten-
tional. Cobb uncovered some OF the
tactics which have made him one Of
the most unpopular men in his own
league.
Five thousand persons crowded the
local park when the fracas occurred
and developed a free-for all fight and
a riot that resulted in a call for the
Lolice.
In sliding into second base in the
third inning Cobb spiked Herzog, cut
ting a four-inch cash In the left leg OF
the Giants captain. The players
started fighting a. once, with Cobt Cn

Many Capital Entries for
Baltimore B0WLing Event
Thirty Five-man Teams, Including Two of Ten

for Locals Close April 4.

Thirty fve-man teams of Washing
ton have given their names as prob
able competitors in the championship
two-balI tournament of the Baltimore
City Bowling Association, to be held
beginning April 16.
The local bowlers are being organ
ized for the tournament by Jack VIII
liams, vice president of the District
Association, and all teams and individ-
uals wishing to roll in the event must
have their entries in his hands by
April 4.
Two Nights for visitors.
Two nights, April IS and 10, have
been promised the Washington bowl
ers, but should enough Capital entries
be obtained, April 20 also will be re-
served. Two nights alone would be
insufficient to accommodate more
than twenty teams, with their accom-
panying singles and doubles. The roll
ing will begin about 5 o'clock In the
afternoon.
Williams will accept the entries of
no more than twenty teams should
not enough enter to warrant a third
night. In this event, those turning in
their entry fees first will be the ones
to compete.
Skilled Teams to Roll.
A number OF the strongest quints
of the city have signiflsd tneir inten-
tions of rolling. One of these Is the
crack Royal combination, of the Dis
trict League. The Royal tenpin
team, OF the Washington City League,
expects to roll in the big-pin section
of the tournament The only other
tenpin team contemplating the trip
is Acme, also of the Washington city
circuit.

With this array of representatives

the Washington teams and individu-
ais in the last tournament of the
Monumental City association. About
one-third of the prize money was
won by the visitors.
This year, however, the Washing.
tonians will be confronted with DIFF
ferent conditions. They will be
forced to roll the two-ball game,
meaning two balls to the frame in
stead of the regulation three.
Unused To Two-BalI Game.
This may prove a handicap, in view
of the Baltimoreans' experience with
the new form of rolling. There are
several little tricks about getting the
pins with two spheres that must be
learned by the locals before they can
compete on even terms with the Mary
landers.
1t is said that by shooting at the
RIO. pin better results IAN be OBJ
tained with two balls than IL the
bowler aimed at the headpin with his
first sphere, as ordinarily. This Is
vouched for by Shirley DowLinF.

who has been deyoting considerable
time to experimenting with the two

FOR BASEBALLERS
Seventeen Games Scheduled for
Local College and School,
boy Mines.

No less than seventeen games are
booked by school and college mines
In the city during the week. Baseball
activities will take a sudden spurt
with the advent of the Northern col
fege teams.
Amherst, Lafayette, Lehigh, Cornell,
Colgate and Holy Cross are numbered
among the visiting college mines. The
colleges have their hands full during
the next six days In preparation for
the many. battles scheduled during
Easter week.
Both Georgetown and Catholic Uni
versity have started off in fine shape.
Georgetown presented a pair OF Jacks.
Murray and Breslin, in the box yes
terday which proved too much for
Mt. st. 10. The Mountaineers were
handed a 7-to-O defeat. Georgetown's
hitting was light, but the players
took advantage OF many slip-ups and
scored frequently.
As Catholic University was able to
trounce Gallaudet by an S-to-0 score,
Coach Moran saw fit to trot out a
number OF players for a tryout. The
Brooklanders performed creditably
and were able to gain six runs in
the opening inning, taking things
easy thereafter.
Tuesday Catholic University enter
tains Amherst at Brookland, while
the Georgetown nine is battling the
GrIffmen at Georgia Avenue Park.
On Wednesday Lafayette plays at
Catholic University, while its old
rival, Lehigh. plays at Georgetown.
Just now there is considerable talk
going on about Lehigh and Lafayette,
due to rYmors of a number of foot
ball stars fiocking to Tom Keady's
banner at Lehigh.
Lafayette goes over to Georgetown
on Tuesday, while Syracuse Is booked
for a game with Catholic University.
Both teams are idle on Friday, but
on Saturday Holy Cross plays Catho-
lie University, while Colgate is ex-
pected at Georgetown.
Maryland State is due to open up
with Cornell on Saturday at College
Park. The Staters are said to have
a first rate team, but are shy on de-
pendable pitchers. State has fewer
games than usual this spring.
