 When Ty Cobb became the Ameri- can league swat king for nine euc- ccsSive years no one eyer dreamed that his record would be equalcd much less excclled.
 Yet today Rog Hornsby has q high run of six on his string and vii no outward indication of slowing up or slipping, as the experts say,
 Thus, when the 1928 season opens Hornsby's batting stride will be watched by all who follow batting statistics and records.
 If Hornsbv rrigns supreme in his organization this coming summer he will make it seven straight. Will he advance 10 eighth, then nine and create added fame for himself with 10o
 Time alone will answer that qucs- ton.
 Ilornshy refuses 10 offer prophecy about himself Reg is a fellow who allows base hits to speak for themselves.

 That's looking too far into the future," replied Rogers. Making base hits is the least of my worries. You get 'em or you don't.
 II am not thinking about what'e going to happen this year, the next or the following one. In batting do not plan on the next time at bat but when I am up there I try 10 pick on the one that is coming over and have my full cut.
 "As for tying Cohh's record or beating il, nothing would please me more, but am not losing any sleep fretting about the possibilities of what you fellows call fame"
 The statistics showing the nine leading years for Cobb and the six for Hornsby bring out some inter esting information.
