(Commercial Colle.) AUGUSTA, Georgia, Friday.—Without notifying any of his friends that he was coming, Ty Cobb attempted yesterday to slip quietly into this town, his native place. The effort was unsuccessful. He was recognized first by a grinning newspaper boy while passing out of the station. By the time he reached a cab-stand there was a procession
the time he reached a cab-stand there was a procession at his heels. Two hours later the Cobb home was the scene of one of the greatest demonstrations this town has seen. Bands headed a procession that paraded to the house of the former Detroit manager, carrying banners and signs testifying to the confidence in Cobb of all Augusta following the recent baseball scandal in which the “Georgia Peach” was charged with having conspired to “throw” a game in 1919 between Detroit and Cleveland and wager on the result. In response to the ovation, Cobb finally appeared and consented to

Denying all guilt in the “fixed” contest, he declared that confidence in him is not misplaced. “Neither (Speaker nor myself suffer from the action taken by the officials,” said Cobb. “I am guilty of no wrong, for I did not conspire, ever, to throw a game, nor have I ever wagered money on a game in the American League.” RACING IN ENGLAND Results at Bournemouth.

Americans Who Swam English Channel Will Compete for Purse Offered by William Wrigley, Jr. Paris Times Spécial. LOS ANGELES. — Despite the claims of Walter Grange Taber, the twenty-eight-year-old swimmer of New York that he successfully crossed the Catalina Channel, off the California Coast, other long-distance swimming experts continue to announce their intention of competing for the $20,000 prize offered by William Wrigley, jr., of Chicago, the “Chewing Gum King.” Among those who have decided to take part are
King.” Among those who have decided to take part are Charles Toth and Henry Sullivan, famed for having swum the English Channel. Both are from Boston. They have already begun training for the event, which is to start on January 1. Taber, a product of “some swimmin’ holes” of the Hudson River, crawled out of the ocean at Huntington Beach on November 19 and announced that he had made the swim from Catalina Island in 13 h. 27 m. The occupants of two motor-boats testified that they had accompanied him. Taber said that he had not done any particular training
Taber said that he had not done any particular training for the feat, but had “just tried it for his own satisfaction.” The coming tests will be made in specific conditions imposed by Mr. Wrigley, and the prize will be awarded to the first man or woman to make the swim in those conditions. Among the prominent female aspirants are Mrs. Charlotte Moore Schoenmann, holder of many long-distance records and recent conqueror of that stretch of the Hudson River between Albany and New York, and Mrs. Charlotte Corson, who swam the English Channel. Mrs. Corson has taken exception to the

Haines, manager for Mrs. Schoenmann, declares that this is entirely satisfactory to the committee in charge, but Mrs. Corson has threatened to abandon the contest unless Mrs. Schoenmann wears conventional costume. The lack of it would constitute “disgraceful immodesty,” according to Mrs. Corson. ENGLISH CLUBS IN PARIS. No Hockey or Football Games to be Played on Sunday. As many of the playing members of the British Rugby Club of Paris
the playing members of the British Rugby Club of Paris are absent this weekend no game will be played on Sunday. Next week, however, the club is looking forward to the visit of many of its members who have been absent from the capital for long periods and many of whom are fine Rugby players. It will then put three and perhaps four first-rate sides into the field, for matches at La Courneuve on Sunday, January 2. The Standard Athletic Club of Paris also has no hockey or soccer games for Boxing Day. The hockey section will not play any
for Boxing Day. The hockey section will not play any more matches until after the New Year. The competition in the Inter-Bank association Football League, of which the first round has been completed with the Guaranty Trust leading, will re-open for the second round on January 15. PERSON GETS HARD FIGHTING FROM MALONEY. Boston Heavyweight Takes Decision In New York Fight—Swede Makes Game Stand. Paris Times Spécial. NEW YORK, Friday. — Sweden’s hopes of a world’s heavyweight boxing champion were dashed when Jim Maloney, the Boston boy, slugged his way to a twelve-round victory over Harry Persson in Madison Square
to a twelve-round victory over Harry Persson in Madison Square Garden. The fight was a hard one all the way. Both men were applauded at the end by 15,000 spectators. Maloney was credited by sport reporters with every one of the twelve sessions. The Swede’s face was much cut before the contest ended. In the third, fourth, and last two rounds he staggered helplessly, as Maloney’s terrific smashes to the head rocked him from side to side. In the fifth, Maloney had a deep cut opened over his eye when he accidentally came into contact with Persson’s head. The cut
he accidentally came into contact with Persson’s head. The cut bled profusely, but the Boston man displayed clever defense in keeping the injury out of harm’s way. Maloney explained after the bout that he had injured his right hand in the fifth round or he would have scored a knockout, Persson’s only comment was that he had put up the best fight that he could, and that he was proud of his exhibition. Those who saw the affair were inclined to agree with the Scandinavian. Maloney’s victory over Persson not only eliminates the Swede as a possible future opponent for
only eliminates the Swede as a possible future opponent for Gene Tunney, but also adds tremendously to Maloney’s prestige as a ranking heavyweight contender. Monte Munn was defeated by Hanson on the same programme that saw Persson pass out of the deserving circle. It came as a surprise when the big Nebraskan was forced to slow up under the hammering of Hanson’s gloves. The Swedish battler took a ten-round decision with neatness and despatch, although his margin of victory was not so great as that of Maloney in the main attraction. Martin Burke and Otto Porat also appeared in the

English Football For Christmas (Paris Times Spécial) LONDON, Friday.—Saturday being Christmas Day, few Rugby matches will be played. To replace the weekend games, matches are fixed for today and Monday. Coventry meets its chief rival, Leicester, today at Coventry. A fine game is to be expected. This year Coventry has one of the best club records, while Leicester has to its credit a victory over the Maoris. Last week both these teams won easily, but

the opinion of the Yale undergraduates, as expressed in a questionnaire. This is an interesting item of American news, coming as it does from one of the oldest and greatest of the educational institutions in the United States. Yale was originally founded as the collegiate school of Connecticut at Saybrook and it was removed to New Haven in 1717. It was not until 1887, however, that the State Legislature sanctioned its present name. At the present time there are about 3,500 students, exclusive of the graduate schools.

Among the questions put to the students were: “What is the relative value of the various extracurricular activities?” and: “What are the factors which contribute most powerfully to 'success in college?” In the first question, the students were asked to indicate the most valuable activities in the light of their importance in the development of the individual and to the university community. Athletics received the largest vote, by a wide margin, with football leading the list of sports. The reason generally given was the
the list of sports. The reason generally given was the influence of sports on the spirit of the university, resulting in unification of feeling and community of interest produced among players and spectators alike. Other reasons given were the physical and mental development fostered, the advertising value of sports to the university and the resulting attraction of the best type of men. Football was justified because the income therefrom provides for many other sports. The receipts from the football season allow Yale to carry on its policy of “sports for all.” When it came to the question of factors which
all.” When it came to the question of factors which make most for success in college, the students placed athletic ability and personality first, with a combined vote of 70 per cent, scholarly excellence polled 4 per cent. The same questionnaire, put to the students of a university of any other country, would draw a very different set of replies. It gives an interesting aspect of American opinion of the value of sports, for Yale is certainly among the institutions that furnish leaders in all walks of life in the United States. Sym Sportswise.

United States. Sym Sportswise. In Paris and the Provinces, Novel Swindlers Now Under Arrest One, Nicknamed “Jésus Christ,” Is A Well-known Latin Quarter Character. A hand of five camoufleurs, or swindlers who bought and sold goods without paying the manufacturer or dealer, and another, nicknamed “Jésus Christ,” who worked alone at the same method of getting rich quickly, have been arrested by the Paris police. The five men against whom charges of swindling have been made are Gabriel Tellier, Henri Simon, Jules Thibault, Frédéric Corthial and Albert Bourguignon. The total value of the merchandise they are charged with obtaining is
value of the merchandise they are charged with obtaining is nearly 5,000,000 fr. Albert-Louis Paraz, called “Jésus Christ,” is charged with having obtained silk worth 2,290,000 francs from manufacturers in Lyons (Rhône). About a year ago, the leader of the band, Tellier, was arrested on the same charges, but he was released because of illness. As soon as he was free, he gathered his accomplices around him and rented a small office, later moving to a larger one as the “business” prospered. In one month, they made a profit of 200,000 francs and took luxurious offices at 25, Rue Royale,
200,000 francs and took luxurious offices at 25, Rue Royale, paying an annual rent of 50,000 francs. They employed twenty-six typists and four male attendants in resplendent attire. The commissionaires ordered all their supplies in carloads. At the time of their arrest, several cars with merchandise valued at 2,000,000 francs were waiting to be unloaded. Two storehouses were maintained to hold the goods, and all France was flooded with circulars of the “Society of Credit and Sales of the Manufacturers of France.” The company literally took the cash and let the credit go. Before the war, “Jésus Christ” Paraz was
the credit go. Before the war, “Jésus Christ” Paraz was frequently seen in Latin Quarter antique shops and Montparnasse cafés with his reddish-brown beard, buckled shoes, and long hair. Later, deciding that his work with antique dealers was not remunerative enough, he established a credit with Lyons silk dealers, and opened an art shop at 27, Rue Monge. He sold the silk at low prices, and ignored invoices from his creditors. Garage for Armistice Car. An American has given 150,000 francs for the construction of a garage at Rethondes (Oise) in which will be housed the railroad car in which
in which will be housed the railroad car in which the Armistice was signed at the close of the World War. The car is now in the courtyard of the Invalides in Paris, but is not properly sheltered. Plans for the garage, to stand on the exact spot at which the Armistice was signed, include an arrangement whereby the exterior and the interior of the car can be inspected easily. Money from admissions to the garage will be used for the upkeep of the Armistice carrefour. Boy Killed on Train Roof. Suicide was the lot of the son of a
Roof. Suicide was the lot of the son of a Paris doctor who climbed to the roof of a train coming from Meudon (Seine-et-Oise). The young man was Paul Philippet, eighteen years old and a student of the Lycée Henri IV. He went to Meudon for an outing with friends and after spending a happy afternoon, he and they took the train to return to Paris. When no one was looking, Philippet climbed to the roof of one of the coaches. At the Porte de Saintration, his friends decided to search for him. They looked in many coaches but found

It was that of the missing boy, the rest of whose mutilated body was found on the roof. He had been crushed through the ceiling as the train passed through a tunnel.
