Rivals Who Will Settle

RAIN HALTS WORK
OUTDOORS FOR
BOWD0IN SQUAD

Brunswick, Nov. s.--Rain today
completely upset the plans of the
Bowdoln College football coaches and
instead of having a stiff scrimmage
on Whittier Field the warriors met
in the Hyde Athletic building where
they were given a long signal drill
and dummy scrimmage. The Athlet-
ic building, having dirt floor.
proved almost as good a playing field
as Whittier Field.
While the field is wet and heavy
as a result of the continued rain, the
authorities feel confident that it will
be in good condition for the tilt with
Maine on Saturday. The field is
constructed of sandy loan, which
dries very rapidly and there is no
place on 1t where there Is clay to
bother or where water stands in pud-
dies.
Every man on the varsity squad
was out in football toys this after
noon and while some Of the players
are still showing the effects Of in
juries received in the Bates game
last Saturday there Is no longer any
possibility of any of the first string
men being unable to play the big
contest that will determine the
championship of the State.

y Cobb One Most Picturesque Figures Quits the Tiger
|TY cobb TIRES OF
KNOCKS AND QUITS
AS TIGER MANAGER

Detroit, Nov. S--(Pl-The tocsin
has sounded for Ty Cobb. After II
years Of brilliant baseball the Geor-
gian, wearying Of constant criticism
for his failure to develop a pennant
winning club, resig1e d today as man
ager of the Detroit Tigers.
George Moriarty. the American
League umpire who made his base
ball reputation as third baseman for
the Detroit team, will be the new
manager. His selection was an
nounced today by President Frank j.
Navin.
Cobb left for his Augusta, Ga.
home Immediately after rendering his
resignation. Friends, however. said
that Cobb will devote his entire time
to varied business interests Che Is
generally reputed to be the wealthiest
OF the baseball players) and will not
don a uniform for at least a year
The announcement came as dis
tinct surprise to Detroit fans. Cobb
has been severely criticized, espec-
tally in the past two years, for his
management of the Tigers. Many
fans have called for his managerial
scalp. Often boos have mingled with
cheers in the past two years when
he took his turne at bat or trotted in
from center field to argue with an
umpire.
But Cobb has remained, devoting
all his baseman skill and smartness
developed by Il years of major
league play to giving Detroit the
best ball club he could.
Dissension was often reported on
the club. This player and that play
er were said to be unable to get
along" with Cobb. His handling OF
pitchers was objected to by many.
During the 1926 season when the
team dropped low in the standings,
attendance began falling off. Bleach
ers which We're needed in other years
in the outf1eld stood empty even on
summer Sunday afternoons.
There was no questioning Cobb's
sincerity of purpose nor his enthus-
iasm; there were doubts. often eX-
pressed. as to his managerial ability.
President Navin was always one OF
the Georgians strongest friends Lit
tie more than a year ago, when the
CITY of Detroit rendered Cobb a pub
lie banquet and presented him with a
costly hall clock Navin handed Cobb
a, check for $4,000 as a gift from the
club in recognition of Cobb's part in
| it's upbuilding.
Cobb began his Tiger career in
1905 He has never played with any
other major league club. The f1nan-
cial success of the Detroit baseball
club is inter woven with the days in
which Cobb was basebalrs greatest
attraction. For many years he was
| such a box office magnet as Babe
! Ruth is today. 1t was his versatility
as much as his batting that Won him
| the designation of the greatest ball
player that ever lived"
Ever since 1924 Cobb has sought
| to develop the man to succeed him in
| the center field he played so long.
1t was only this season. however,
that the man Cobb believed capable
of the Job was found. This was
Heinie Manush. whose first year as
a Tiger regular took him to the bat
ting championship of the American
League With Manush batting and
fielding well in center field, Cobb
, spent most of the 1926 season on the
bench.
