TY COBB'S TIGERS
NOT FORMIDABLE
Georgian Sure of Hitting
Strength, But That's All.
Mays Shows Well.

AUGUSTA, Ga, March 2l.-It is
fairly safe to predict that Ty Cobb
and his Tigers will not cause any
sleepless nights for the flag aspir-
ants in the coming American League
race. The famous Georgian is going
to pilot a team that will be consid-
erably improved over last seasons.
but it will not have the balance a
good team should have. When next
October rolls around. Cobb will find
himself in the second division with
the Red Sox, White SoX and Athlet-
les keeping him company.
The one thing Cobb is sure to have
Is hitting. Most of this strength
s-ilI be in the outfield, where the IA
nous Georgian will be surrounded
by Harry Heilman and Bob Veach.
In his two weeks down here, Cobb
has been paying particular attcn-
ton to his intieId rockies. He mas
discovered four lads of exceptional
worth. but indications already are
that the short job will go to Emory
Rigney. while second will be UcCu
pied either by the veteran, Pop
Young, or George Cutshaw, who was
obtained from the Pittsburgh CluD
via the waiver route.

MORE ABOUT GERHARDT.

THE COLUMN is indebted to A. L.
L Brown for more details of the
baseball career of the late Joe Ger
hardt, one of the greatest players
ever developed in Washington,
whose death in Middleton. n. Y,
last week was recorded yesterday
in The Herald,
Here is Mr.. Browns contribution:
"Gerhardt was a member of the
old Creighton Club, which was or
ganized among the boys who con-
gregated around the vicinity where
your Office-The Herald-is at pres
ent located. The team was organs
lied by John Hadley Doyle, still a
central figure in all lines of amateur
athletics, and who was the first
sporting editors of any paper in
Washington.
''on the team played Charley Sny-

baseman of the country; Sadie

toward the Mexican border, are DR..
E. F. Schramm, professor of geology; ;
DR.. G. J. FrankfOrter, professor OF
chemistry, and DR.. e. III. Barbour,
chairman of the geology department
They have all been connected with
the University of Nebraska for sever
al years and are well known in scien-
tifc circles throughout the country
It was while Doctor Schramm was
making a geological investigation OF
the Rio Grande border region that he
came across a probable oil anticlinal
near here. Small oil production had
already been obtained here and prac-
teal oil men were only beginning to
turn their attention to the possibilities
of this region when Doctor Schramm's
attention was attracted. Doctors
Frankforter and Barbour invested
their savings In this region solely on
the strength of their confidence in
Doctor Schramm. A well was drilled
and few weeks ago 1t came In with
a production of 5000 barrels Of high
grade oil q day. 1t is the largest pro-
Queer in the Miranda district.
Doctor Schramm still maintains his
connection with the University of Ne
braska as does his two associates on
the faculty. According to information
received here, both Doctor Frankforter
and Doctor Barbour expect to con-
tinue their professional duties, ire
spective of how rich they may become.
The former is credited with the state
ment that he hoped to use a part Of !
his early income from oil in financing
the building of q stadium for the uni
versity, while it is the ambition OF |
Doctor Schramm to donate a splendid
building to the institution.
