With the style he developed Cobb
never became a slugger. He tried to
drive the ball between fielders and
not over them. With his unorthodox
stance he could not get the power
behind the ball. He never tried for
distance; his object was always to
get on base.
Cobb, left-handed batter. was
weaker against left-handed pitchers
than against the right-handers. He
set about to overcome this weakness
by practicing against left-handers. He
would induce the left-handers on his
own club to pitch to him. If they
were not available he would engage
the services Of any left-handed throw
er to pitch to him. In this way he
accustomed himself to meeting balls
thrown from the left side of the
body. He practiced so long that he
became as proficient in hitting left
handlers as he was in meeting the de-
liveries of right-handed pitchers.

SKI GIVEN BEATING
BY YOUNG MARULLO

Marullo, New Orleans light heavyweight.
scored an unimpressive 12-round victory
over Battling Sikh, Senegalese pugilist
and former holder of the worlds light
heavyweight title, at Madison Square
Garden last night.
The negro fought an aggressive fight,
but his indifference and his clownsh an
tics in the ring evidently had their
effect on the judges, who gave the de-
cision to Marullo.
The decision was unpopular to the
small crowd which witnessed the en-
counter, and a mild demonstration of
disapproval was voiced.
Sikh hit Marullo at will at long range
but the New Orleans boy scored heavily
in the infghting. There were no knock
downs.

SCHOOL GRID GAMES
POPULAR ON COAST
BY WALTER CAMP.

SEATTLE, November 15.-School
foot ball is drawing good crowds out
here on the Pacific Coast. The boys
teams play very advanced games,
using shift plays and the forward
pass freely, thus preparing good ma
terial for later varsity teams.
Foot ball fields out here are Of
different footing from most of the
Eastern gridirons, and Of course
when wet. they are hard on the turns
and reverses. But sawdust helps,
and on the whole the players give a
very creditable performance even
under adverse conditions.
With the great amount of inter-
sectional foot ball, there is very little
difference nowadays in the character
istics Of the play, whether Eastern,
Middle Western or Coast.
Interest and excitement out here is
increasing daily on what November %
will show as to the relative merits
of Pop Warmers Stanford team and
Andy Smiths Californians Each
coach has greatly improved the work
of his men in the last few weeks.
