NATIONAL LEAGUE
MAY HAVE COBB
AND SPEAKER
Expect Monday Meeting
Will Clear Names of
Two Stars.
By HENRY L. FARRELL
United Press Staff CORRESPONDENT

NEW YORK, Jan. 2l-Ty Cobb
and iris Speaker, two Of baseball IS
greatest stars, who were relieved of
the management Of the Detroi. and
Cleveland clubs FOR reasons that
have not been made clear, will be
playing again next season, but in
the National league, it was reported
today from several good sources.
In the course Of next Monday 8
battle in Chicago between Commits
sioner Lands and Ban johnson,
president Of the American league,
the reasons for their dismissal will
have to be given and from the many
conflicting statements made by
johnson it seems that the reasons
are not serious enough to keep the
two stars out Of baseball.
johnson started his latest and
perhaps his last fcud with Lands
by making statement that Cobb
and Speaker never would be allow
ed to play IN the American league
for several reasons that were known
only to the American league owners.
Landis then demanded a meeting
with the club owners to get the Sc
cret information limited at by John
son, and johnson has been making
SO many conflicting statements that
it looks as if he had no case against
the two players or that he is holding
out details for the meeting.
Giants Want Cobb
Smart baseball men were of the
opinion that the meeting Monday
S-D finish the career uf johnson and
that Cobb and Speaker will be vim
dicated or that if johnson is spared
the two players he accused will be
exonerated.
1t was understood that the Giants
are interested in the outcome of tho
case as it concerns Cobb because he
would be a great drawing card il
New York. At least one other clul
in the National league is interested
in Cobb and Speaker.
II might be considered good poll
ties for the American league to no
tifv the two players that they wer'
/ qualified to seek other jobs in TIL
American league but it is almost
dead certainty that neither will con
slider any more American lcagu
connections or associations.
