NEW YORK WRITERS
 TO LODGE PROTEST
Ran Johnson's Action Giving Ty Cobb Hit and n 100 Average is
 Tho Cause.

New York. Dec. 1.-The New York chapter of the Baseball Wrlters' as- sociation announced yesterday 1t plan ned 10 file formal protest against the American leagues action In creditine Ty Cobb with n disputed hit, thus giving tho Detroit manager an aver
 n' 'n-o thnn 400 for the third time in his career. Formal action. Il was said. would be taken by the asso- citation at It's annual meeting, sched- uled for Thursday of next week here.
 While not desiring 10 detract from Cobb's achievements. the writers ob- Iect to alleged irregular procedure by which a hit was given him in the off, cial averages when the official scorer ct the game, played in New York, May l5, recorded the play as an error for Scott, Yankee shortstop, and not as safe blow for Cobb, They charge that the hit was officially credited without proper investigation and that if any examination into the circum- stances was made, neither the official scorer nor any of the writers who saw the game were questioned by league authorities.
 The dispute arose originally from the fact that Cobb. by some sources, was credited with hit due to the fact that the official scorers ruling was not available at the time of the play. The official averages give Cobb a bat ting mark of .401, while without the hit his mark is .399.

Team Pleases Students.
 State College, Pa, Dec. z. - Penn State students were filled with joy to- day over the refusal of Hugo Bezdek to accept the offer to manage the Philadelphia National league baseball team and his announcement that he would remain in college work here. The Phillies job would have meant probably double the salary that he re- ceives as director of athletics at Penn sylvania State college.
 With me it is question of serv- ice," said Bezdek ''and I feel that there is far greater opportunity for service in working with young college men than there would be in profes- sional ball. In college work there Is the wonderful chance to influence the young men in the right way and to help materially in building character. Financially this means the sacrifice of several thousand dollars a year, but ideals cost money and I find that my ideals can best be worked out in col lege ranks. In making my decision the many appeals from students and alumni asking me to remain at Penn State also had their effect and for this reason I felt that l could not consider the Phillies offer
