of the sudden death yesterday Of

be split, with so per cent, going
to the winner and 40 per cent 20
the loser.
If the match can be held in the
future it should be cassie of golf,
as Sarazen and Havers are two OF

Dobie ranks the game as the
toughest on the schedule. His in

the Green will be playing at its best

The Cornell squad will live in

of the lack of accommodations at

it would be better to take along a

STAND PAT
That Should Make Going
Rather Smooth for
Detroit Team.
By BERT WALKER.

DETROIT, Oct 30.-One of the
most cheerful messages that could
come over the wire TO the Detroit
Tigers was a news dispatch of
six words. 1t said:
Yankees will stand pat next
year.
or course, it is hardly probable
that the Yanks viii stand pat on
their present team 1t is probable
that they win try to get another
infielder and one more outfielder,
not to speak of a catcher; but If
the present champions of the world
do elect to stand pat the Tigers
will be very glad.
Most students of the game be-
;ieve that the Tigers could have
Giants in a. world series go this
fall If this is true and the Yanks
stand pat next year the going
should not be so difficult for the
Tigers in the next campaign.
Liz Stoner is coming back 10
the Tigers next sea son. He put in
the past season in the South and
had a big year. Reports indicate
that he won a big majority of his
games when the fighting was hot
test, getting away to many one
run wins.
II this pitcher has been able to
overcome his nervousness when the
going gets hot he should win
many games for the Tigers next
season. When he was up with the
Tigers last year he showed ten
dency to lose his nerve when chall
Ienged and that was the reason he
was sent back.
Scouts report that he was as
cool as chunk of ice in eIncr-
gencies in the season just closed.
He was. otherwise. a great pitcher,
and Manager Cobb has hopes that
he will come back with bells on in
the spring.
