7y Cobb in FAVOR of 80.
Short Spring Training

cometh Cobb and says he is no ex-
cePtion:
and being Cobb he didn't have to an.
swer the boots about his delay in join
ms his club, But this spring there
mas been so much talk on training
methods that he has been induced to
pass a few remarks, and they are en-
BODIED in the interview below.
Tyrus long ago said that long train
ing, trips in the South were not alone
useless, but In reality a detriment. His
reasoning is sound and carries enough
weight, to make even the most OBJ
Gurate standpatter take 1t into seri-
Gus consideration.
Cobb contends that Southern trims
are entirely unnecessary; that better
results could be accomplished at home,
IN y shorter time, and at a great saV-
ing financially, OF course.
-Four and five weeks drilling, with
Two practice sessions every day Is
says Cobb, and the strain is so great
that q player is weakened. This is
shown often before the close Of the
regular season, when players begin to
go stale and lack the snap which char
aeterized Their. play earlier. They had
the season opened.
There is an excuse for rushing a
prize fighter, for instance, and putting
him TO the limit during his training.
He is preparing for one contest, rare
ly more. He must therefore have
fitness when he enters the ring. II
IL is a 10-rcund bout he has 80 minutes
Of strenuous work ahead of him"
Different Test in Baseball.
Cobb continues to say that the same

cause their season lasts not over ten
weeks.
But in baseball" argues Ty, cit Is
different. Here you have players facing
