 Tyrus Raymond Cobb is doing right well as manager The ia nous Georgia Peach. king of bats. men, ever something of a prima donna as a player and man of temperament on and off the ball field, is handling his Detroit Tigers in an admirable manner
 Prior to the opening of the season Cobb took the job of managing De- troit under protest. He did not want it. He did not believe he was quite ready to undertake the duties of a manager, for as he confded to close friends, he was not sure of his ability to handle men. That is why he signed as manager for only one year.
 Just before the race got under way he said. in sizing up the chances of the Tigers. that he would be satis- fled with sixth place, He hoped to do better. of course, but he did not want to appear confident beyond what his club showed on paper. Take look at the percentage col umn. At this writing 1t shows the Tigers in fourth place They have been plugging away all season with right merry will. They are play ing fighting baseball, too, and it Is all a credit to Cobb. The Georgia Peach has proven to the satisfaction of Detroit fans that he can succeed as a manager and there will be an other contract as manager offered him by President Navin when the season closes.
