 Ty Cobb, who recognizes in the St. Louis flash the greatest rival he has ever had, like wine seems to improve with age. Cobb is hitting .395, and has damned out nine homers. The only depart ment in which age is beginning to tell on him is on the paths Cobb is not near as speedy on hoof as he used to be, and his high-powered ankles have ceased to terrorize American league catchers as formerly. Tyrus has but eight steals to his credit since the campaign got going.
 The Real Sensation
 Red Faber has proven the sen sation of sensations by pulling the greatest comeback in the an- nals of baseball When Red had a good team behind him in 1913 and 1920 he seemed to lose his stuff and it was feared he was through for good This year, after Chicago had been depopu- lated of it's stars, Faber gets go- ing with a weak team behind him, at rate that has all of major league baseball gaspins. He stormed through with anoth- CT victory Saturday. This tri- uu ph gives him 13 wins out of l6 starts There may have been pitchers who matched this stunt in the majors, but we can't recall em at present.
 Argument ~Discredited
 Those fans who argue the balls are no liver than ever, might take a peep at club batting in the American league. They might find something convincing there. In all the history of baseball, there hasn't been such collec- tive and effective yielding of bludgeons.
 Detroit as club has an av- craze of .332 The Cleveland In- dians are next. with .323, and St. Louis third. with 1902. The Red Sox. last on the list, have club hitting mark of ,267 which was considered quite a mark in the good old days, eh wot.
 Chicks CrumpIine at Last
 Looks like the blow up of the league leading Memphis Chicks which everybody has been pre- dieting since the season started, has come at last. Kid Elberfeld's Razorbacks were the first to stem the tide The Little Rock CTS beat the Chicks four straight games. and the fans sat back and applauded. Then came the Peli- cans, and Saturday they handed the Bluff City crowd their third straight defeat This made seven games the Chicks have dropped in a row. Looks like Spencer Ab,- bolt knew something when he left the team and started scout ing for new material. And, then. too, it may be that dissenslon has sprung up in the ranks again Abbott has several ball players on his club who are hard to handlp

Chicago.

 Earl Thomson of Dartmouth equaled his own worlds record of 0;14 2-b in the t20-yard high hurdles. The eastern star might have beaten his first record but for poor start which left him slightly off stride at the first barrier and slip which caused him to tip over the fourth. Romig of Penn State first in the two-mile; Earl Eby of Pennsylvania | university. half-mile winner; Shea of Pittsburg. first in the 440-yard dash and Gardner of Yale, who tied for the l lead in the pole vault were other eastern track celebrities who mora than lived up to their regulations

A lot OF mystery still clings to the
Chinese In New York, despite metro
polltan influences. often the whole
personnel of u Chinese restaurant or

you can't find out why or where the
others vanished to. 1t may be they
gamble for them.
Not long ago a man who had been
patronizlng n Chinese laundry so long
they didn't give him a check for his
wash called for his shirts and collars
and found one Of those strange over
night changes had taken place. No
one knew him. and his check was de-
manded. He rayed and argued in that
exasperatlngly futile way so well
known to one who has tried to talk
to n Chinaman.
Finally he had an inspiration, took
off his collar and showed the China
man the laundry mark in their own
hleroglyphics. He got his bundle.
