TY COBB AGAIN
 LEADS AMERICAN
 LEAGUE EATERS

For the eleventh time in the last 12 years Tyrus Raymond Cobb of the Detroit Tigers is batting champion of the American League. Cobb now is q captain in the Chemical Warfare Ser vice and landed in France few days before the cessation of hostilites. Cobb's official average for 1913 IS 1882 for III games, which oddly enough Is only l point below the average with which he led the league in 1917- Second place goes to First Baseman George Burns of the Phila- delphia Athletics, who hit 1854 in 130 games Art Griggs of Detroit and Joe Jackson of Chicago, hold places between Cobb and Burns, but neither participated in 30 games
 Jacques Fournier, who joined the Yankees late in the season leads Hug gins team with an average of 1850 for games. Frank Baker leads the Yankee regulars with .306, and Pipp is right behind him with .304. It is the first time Baker is credited with hitting better than 300 since leaving the Athletics, while 1t is the first time Pipp has gone over the 300 mark in his American League career.
 In addition to having the best aver age Cobb also led the league in SCOT ing runs with 83, and in hitting triples with .14. Burns made the most hits IFS; Baker hit the most doubles, 34 and Ruth of Boston bagged the mos Eomers, H.

GEORGE SMITH IN FIRST AT BOWIE

PinIlico, Md, Nov. 13-John San ford's George Smith strengtnened the claim of his admirers that he is the best handicap horse of the year when he won the Bowie Handicap at a mile and a half today defeating a field of fourteen that, with the ex- ception of Cudgel, included the best horses in training,
 In the absence of Commander Rosss crack, George Smith picked up the top weight of 130 pounds ana skillfully handled throughout, came through in determined manner in the stretch, to win by a scant length from Omar Knayyam, with Extermi- nator only a half length back. The result furnished proof that the Ken lucky Derby produces horses fit to run in any company, for all three of the placed horses won that classic as three year oids, and the finish of the big handicap was practically con fined to them, as Exterminator was six lengths in front of the fourth horse. George Smith further empha. sized the importance of his victory by covering the course in 2:81 -1-B, which is tthree-fifth of a second faster than the track record.
 George Smith was a -well-plavet choice, but nearly every horse in the field received substantial support The Porter and Exterminator, which have had several close battles, re. gently set .out,to make the pace, close ly followed by the lightly weighted Corn 'Tassel. George Smith was fair ly close to the leaders, and improy ing his position gradually, went into the van at the three-eighths pole. H. looked to have the race at his mere, then, but opposition developed iron an unexpected quarter.
 The discredited Omar Khayyam a last took it into his head to run, ant he ihegan to gain as Hummer put hin under a drive at the head of tn. stretch. It was a driving finish, il which George Smith managed to re tain ilTis lead until safely over the line

WESLEYAN PLAYS
 COLUMBIA TEAM AT SOUTH FIELD
Middletown Eleven Fills Gap in Blue and Whites
 Schedule.

Wesleyan will fill the gap in Co., lumbia's football schedule and play the Morningside Heights eleven at South Field Saturday, according to an announcement made yesterday. The game will be 8 continuation of the series with the Middletown (Conn.) eleven which began in 1915, when Columbia revived football
 Wesleyan found a place on the schedule yesterday morning when Harvard, which had suggested that Columbia journey to Boston for a game with the Crimson Saturday, wired that it would be impracticable to arrange game, because the Sta dium was to be used in connection with the War Work Fund campaign and other fields in Boston were not available
 Wesleyan had a game scheduled with Trinity for Saturday, but this was cancelled. The Middletown elev- en is one of the strongest in the his tory of the university, and has regis tered victories over both Amherst and Williams. Special permission to start the game at 2:30 was obtained from Major Herbert C. Earnshaw- Columbia has not given up hope 1 of arranging a game with Harvard, and may be able to schedule a con- test with the Crimson for either Thanksgiving Day or the Saturday | following, Nov. 30, Columbia is de- | sirous, if the Crimson would consent to send its team here
 Cornell is still a possible opponent for the end of the month The Itha- cans wired yesterday that they would i like to have Columbia send its elev- 1 en upstate for a game on Saturday, but that was after arrangements had been made with Wesleyan
 Fred Dawsons coach of the Colum- l bia eleven, was at South Field for a short time yesterday afternoon, but 1t is not probable that he will be on hand for the remainder of the week, because he has been ordered by his physician to go to Atlantic City to recover from the attack of Spanish influenza which laid him low last week.

JACK DEMPSEY
 AGREES TO BOX IN NEW YORK
Heavyweight Contender Will Appear at Garden
 on Saturday.

Jack Dempsey, the leading contender for the heavyweight championship, will box at the big show to be held at Madison Square Garden Saturday night. The opponent for this new Stanley Ketchel has not yet been se- lectei& but Dempsey will be there. nevertheless to do his bit.
 Before Jack received tiff Coffroths Invitation to display his fistic wares here for the United War Work Cam patgn Drive, he was invited to com- pete in Philadelphia Milwaukee, New Orleans or two other cities for the same fund
 Dempsey was willing to pass ID these towns provided Coffroth could entice Jess Willard, the heavyweight champion, to come to New York. When Jess announced that he would not appear here, Dempsey gave Phil adelphia an option on his services. Tomorrow Dempsey meets some good heavyweight at the Olympia A. A. in Quakerville.
 A story in a local evening paper yesterday is responsible for Dempsey being added to the Garden show. This story banned" Jack for not boxing in this city for the worthy cause. Af- ter reading the criticism, Jack Kearns, manager of Dempsey, got in commit nication with Coffroth over the tele- phone.
 ''Dempsey is ready to box in New York on Saturday night" said Kearns. 'FNrthermore, get the best heavy weight you can for him.
 ';Jack wants to do all he can for the drive and is already scheduled to ap- pear in several cities. He'll be at the Garden on Saturday night, ready to fight any heavyweight the committee names"
 The hardest problem that now con- fronts Messrs. Harvey and Gibson is the finding of an opponent for the @'man- killer" Several of our leading heavyweights will no doubt decline the offer to box him.

WARNING ISSUED
 FOR PREVENTION
 OF TUBERCULOSIS

New York, Nov. 13-Fearing a rapid rise in the death rate from tuberculosis. as a result of the influ- enza epidemic, the National Tubercu- losis Association has issued a special statement warning the public of the danger. Experience in previous epi- denies has clearly indicated, the asso- citation points out, that the death rate from tuberculosis may be expected to be increased by at least 10 per cent within the next two years as a result of the present epidemic, unless proper precautions are taken. Influenza, it is stated, greatly reduces ones phy- sical vitality, and lowers ones resist ance to disease. This opens the way for tuberculosis.
 The surest ways to prevent tubercu- losis as a result of influenza are sum- marized by the association as follows:
 1. Stop working and go to bed inn mediately. Do not resume work until the attack of influenza is all gone.
 2. Have nothing to do with patent medicines or drug store treatment" Put yourself under a doctors care at once, and continue under his care until cured.
 3. Have your doctor examine you thoroughly to see if any signs of tub erculosis are present. You cannot tell without an expert examination.
 f. If free from any trace of tuber- culosis, keep so by sufficient rest dur ing convalescence, and careful living then and afterwards.
 5. If your "cold' hangs on, or there are other indications of tuber- culosis, begin medical treatment with out a moments delay.

JOHN KIINGs BIRTHDAY.

''Gone but not forgottent" If ever this old saying was true, it applies to old John c. King, the famous back stop of the Cubs, who will celebrate his 4Srd birthday tomorrow.

 Kling was born in Kansas City and played with semi-professional clubs in that city in his youth. In 1898 he was given a trial by the St. Louis Ma tionals, but was released, because he was considered too light. After further seasoning with Rockford, Houston and St. Joseph he landed with Chicago in 1901, and remained with the Cubs until 1913, when he rounded out his career with the Reds.
 Throughout his baseball career Kfing was very fond of billiards, and spent all his spare time eulivating his RlOlIC1SAGy WllEA l11O SCNSs LAebIGt AfO l opened billiard room in Kansas City, and built up & fourishing business. KIing was a past master of the tricks of the backstoD business. He was called ''Noisy !John." but, at least in his latter days, he was a quiet chap. He talked continually, in a low, con- 1 fdential voice, to the men at the bat, and would tell them what was com | ing. Of course, they didn't believe him, "Here comes a fast one right over the naiddle,'' Kling would some times say at a critical moment, and it would be the right dope, but the un- believing batter would let the ball pass unmolested, K1iAg had a big bag of tricks like that, and he had lots of the batters up in the air be- I causa of hia HcoIrp conversation,

In his autobiograpy the Hebrew declared that "at the conclu- sion I felt myself nearly as fresh and vigorous as at the first setting to, while my opponent was utterly una ble to stand, and was obliged to be carried off the stage by his seconds" Warr had enough of the fighting game and never entered the ring again. Within a year, however, Mendoza found his superior in '"Gentleman" Jackson, and was knocked out in the ninth round.

SEATTLE'S BIRTHDAY.

Seattle, the great city on Puget Sound, will celebrate its 67th birth day today. A party of pioneers from Portland, Ore, headed by David T. and Arthur A. Denny, natives of Ten nessee, were the founders of the Northwestern metropolis.
 Ike Denny party traveled to the site of the future city in schooners, the expedition being for the express pur- pose of establishing settlement on Uuget Sound. The little village was named after a noted Indian chief, with whom the settlers soon became friendly. The pioneers located farms on what is now the site of the city, and some of their descendants are now among the wealthiest people of Seattle Since then Seattle has had a steady growth, which of late years has become almost phenomenal. Tn 1900 the population was 80,671, and in a decade it had become 237,194, and it has passed Portland in popula- tion. The natives of Seattle are mighty proud of their city, and in the years to come promise to make San Francisco and Los Angeles look to their laurels-
