TY COBB BELIEVES
.CRIFFS HAVE GREAT
CHANCE FOR FLAG
Thinks the Club That
Beats Nationals Will
Win Pennant.
By RAY HELoEsEN.

Clark c. Griffith, president of the
Nationals. isn't the only one who
thinks his ball club will play a
large part I'm the coming American
League flag race. Griff. since the
recent acquisition of Roger Peck
inpaugh and the appointment of
Clyde Milan as manager. has been
optimistic not TO say over-confident
over the chances of his club.
Two others who expect great
things of Griffths's entry In the
American League Handicap are the
great and only Tyrus Raymond
Cobb. manager of the Tigers and
Col. T. L. Huston. part owner of
the Yankees.
In one of the chattering groups
of baseball men in the lobby OF the
Hotel Washington shortly after the
league meeting had broken up We'd
nesday afternoon were Cobb. Hous-
ton. Col. Rupert and Miller Hug
gins of the Yanks, and Bobby Quinn
of the st. Louis Browns. The con-
versation turned to the coming
race Cobb was speaking.
Griffith" said Ty. has one of
the best looking outfits in either
league. With Peck in there at
short the Nationals will have one

Harris. by the way. looks to be
the youth who will fill Eddie Col
lins' shoes as the greatest second
baseman' when Eddie slows up a
| little more.
Right now Griffith's club looks
like the most dangerous club in the
| league outside OF the Yanks., For
myself. / believe the Tigers will
get an even break or better with
the Yanks, and the Indians too. for
that matter. but should Milan get
the work out of his pitchers that
he got during that winning streak
last season and should a couple OF
the Nationals young pitchers come
through, l believe that the club that
beats the Grifs will win the pen
nant"
Col. Huston evidently believes the
same as Ty. The Yanks1l come
through again" murmured the Col
onel. but il by any chance they
shouldn't ! believe the Washington
club has quite as good a chance as
any of the others. not barring the
Indians, 10 win the pennant.

Though Central has c,'nched first
