TY A NATURAL PLAYER

"Ty Cobb never had any real teaching. He played in the minors a couple of sea sons. landed with the Tigers. and became a star. Lajoie was another who just grew up wild. Nobody taught him how to bat; no one taught him how to field in the way that made him one of the most graceful athletes that ever trod a dia-
 mond And the same thing goes concern
 ing Hans Wagner Johnny Evers and all the other mighties of the national pas time.
 Walter Johnson was playing baseball
 in Idaho when he was discovered. The only thing Johnson ever had learned about the game was from his boy play
 mates He never had seen even Class
 D minor leaguer at work. Yet Johnson,
 shipped from his home town, went to Washington and right from the start proceeded to make monkeys out Of the star batsmen in the American League.

 From the present look of things, Boss
 Molesworth is showing just oodles of

 baseball" Moley is not rushing his
 men to obtain and hold midseason lead. On the contrary he is letting them
 take things rather easy.
 The strain on a team which attempts
 to take an early lead and hold to It is
 very great and Molesworth does not
 intend to attempt such a thing. The
 Barons are well up in the running and really have a good chance to win the pennant. A final lap rush will land the gonfalon for Birmingham. team worn out by weeks of continual strain ing is not capable of standing up un- der such a rush.
 The Barons are only five short games from top, within easy striking distance. It would take only a small rally to land the top. The proper time to stage thas rally is when the lead will mean some thing, not when it will mean an added strain on an already fast moving team Of course. the Barons are trying to win each game, but the pep and drive necessary for a final dash is being saved up for the proper moment. "Wc are going to have another champion football team nt thf ' h'- versity of Alabama" says Victor Hugo Friedman of Tuscaloosa. graduate manager of athletics. who was in Birmingham yesterday. ..Our new athletic director. Charles Bernicr. has arrived. nnd is making all preparations for the coming season.

of teaching; all taught by the same man. They all had the same chance. But out of that group only Sisler ever developed
 into a brilliant major leaguer.
 If teaching had anything to do with
 it, then all the others who were taught by the same teacher that is supposed to have taught Sisler would have been great ones, too. But Sisler alone made good, because Sisler was the only natural bol bal, player in the whole group.

"A ball player must be born-he can be made declares Arthur Irwin, who has been identified with the game as player, manager and scout for more than thirty years And therein baseball diff fers from football, golf, pugilism and other sports.
 Take a man who never had golf club in his hand give him a great teacher, have the man practice a lot, and soon he will be a mighty good golfer. Pick up kid who has fair amount of sense, fair physique put him in the hands of a good boxing teacher and in a short time you have a fairly good fighter. Or pick up husky youth who never saw | football before, turn him over to coach like Glen Warner Percy Haughton. John Heisman or Alonzo Stagg, and in season or so he'll rank mighty high in his pro- l ft ssson.
 l Preaching and practice can make great golfers, pugilsts football players out of dubs. Jack Dempsey is a sample of what teaching can do. He was just clubbing around, not getting anywhere in particular and had become so disgusted with the game in 1917 that he quit it. Then 1 Jack Kearns took him in hand. spent months teaching him tricks showed him perfection in the famous Dempsey shift, schooled him in a dozen different ways, | and what is the result? Dempsey is ac- claimed the greatest puglistic warrior m history.
 BOBBY JONES' CASE Bobby Jones, the Atlanta kid. is the result of perfect teaching. A great golf master took him in charge, spent months and years with him, and Jones blossomed forth finally as a truly great in the link world.
 But you can't teach a man to be a great ball player He's either great nat urally. or he's a dub, He's got to be a born ball player, man who knows how
 to play the game by instinct-or hel never make good You've seen thousands Of youngsters playing on the sandlots
