Ind the future cap'n In our army was a regular bushcr. Ty attracted little
attention, for he was a terrible fielder nnd tried to run through the fence
Ta every game. Hughle Jennings used to laugh every tlmo Cobb ran out
M the field, for there was nothing about him that even suggested a future
'ltw. His hitting was of the bush league variety, and when an outfielder
Can't hit It's time to forget all about htm.
"Detroit had a chanco that year to get Cobb for nothing, for the Au-

M le of selecting any ulaier on the
training In Augusta. To show what a hit Cobb made, Clyde Engle, the
tnflelder, was chosen and Tyrus the Great allowed to remain In the tall
Crass. Bnglc, by the way, was a good player nnd afterward went to Boston,
Where he knocked that high fly In the world series in 1912 which was
Miffed by Fred Snodgrass.
"I never forgot Cobb," said Donovan, "for one day when I was pitching
e hit a ball to me and I had to run toward third, base to field It. It wasn't
a hard-hit ball, bo I took my time, but before I could straighten up to throw
to first you can Imagine my surprise when I saw that bushcr roosting on
the bag. Never before had I seen such speedy traveling toward first
fcaae and I remembered It. ,
"later In the season ono of our outfielders went bad and I suggested
to Jennings that he take a chance with that fast guy down In Augusta.
formings wired down there and a reply came back that Cobb would not bo
lent North unless the Detroit club purchased him for 750. President
tiavln sent them the money and Cobb was signed by Detroit.
(fTIlC first year, as you, knoiv, Ty did not set the eorld afire,
but barclv not by. There was a noticeable improvement the
next season, and now look at Mm. At the same time, I attribute
the speedy journey to first base that day in Augusta to Cobb's
, joining the Detroit club."
V Messenger Was Speedy, but Only for a Day
EVERY year we read of future Ty Cobbs In the training camps, who
always blow, up on the northern Journey and never see the big league
tall park. One of the greatest disappointments was a player named Bob
Messenger, who once performed for the Chicago Whito Sox. Bob was dis
covered some place In New England, and Ted Sullivan, the scout, sent in
glowing reports about his speed and all-around ability. He finally was
liven a chanco and he made good on one day only. Out of four times at
rkat he had three hits, got a base on balls and ran wild on the footpaths.
Be swiped all the bases lying around loose and his work was the talk of
Ike town.
That night Sullivan, with his chest out, complimented himself on tho
ironderful discovery. He told the newspaper men how the deed was done
ind quoted a couple of columns of real live stuff. However, the cloud
ltd not have a silver lining and Scout Sullivan stubbed his toe three
lays later.
By that time tho opposing pitchers learned that Messenger couldn't
tit a curved ball, and he was handed that delivery. Time after time he
jrhlffed, and at the end of the third day the second Ty Cobb was handed
his release. This furnished more news for the scribes and Sullivan was
talced for another story.
"Messenger?" he asked. "Who Is that guy? Never heard of him.
ITever saw him until he showed up here.
be came from?"
And they say baseball scouts are wise persons when they try to get
"way with a stunt like that.
Ted Sullivan also pulled a good one when he discovered John Collins,
another product of the New England League. Ted said Collins was tho
neatest second baseman he ever had seen, and to show what a good guess
M made John never has played the position since Joining the White Sox.

Crimson and Gold passers a long time to
strike the shoot, but now that they
have found it they are doing the job
right. Yesterday they lost their second
straight game, dropping a 37-30 game to
West Philadelphia in the Speedboys'
gym.
This defeat, with Southern's Ictory
over Frankford High, places Central nnd
Southern on even terms for first place,
with West Philadelphia only half a
game behind. Northeast High Is In
fourth position, only a game and a half
behind.
On Friday Northeast gets its chance
to play Central. The game will be
plajcd In the Nlcetown Hoys' Club, and
a win for Northeast will gle them nn
excellent chance for the title, as West
Philadelphia and Southern play next

Spectators Have Grand

Spot in Middle States
Covered Event
PLAXERS UP IN THE AIR
By ROBERT T. PAUL
QUIT10 a number of Philadelphia club
men and others. Including three
xojng women, successfully pa-!ed the
highest degree In the local tennis so
ciety or something like that yesterday
when they braed the frigid weather
and everything to witness tho matches
in tho middle states coered tourna
ment now being conducted on the roof
of the John Wanamaker Store.
Bill Tllden and the rest of his useful
committee named tho tournament a
"covered" one, but the spectators are
having a grand and glorious time In
finding a covered spot on the roof where
hey can regain the use of their numbed
digits. Despite the howling wind, the
flurries of snow and the hovering of the
mercury around the bottom of the ther
mometer a pleasant time was had by all.
Including the stout man who chased nls
hat all around the roof while the wind
was at Its best.
Must Wear Flannels
As for the players, they also enjoyed
themselves and provided some enter
tainment for the club members. Though
the thermometer was around tho 20-de-gree
mark, the players came out on the
courts all dressed up In their flannels
and white oxfords. If they didn't sport
their flannel trousers they would have
a difficult tlmo convincing themselves
that they really wer," playing tennis.
Een w th their flannels, they had a
hard time keeping their mind on the
game, for they were "all up in the air."
George Thompson suggested to one of
the committee that they have Samuel
Dallas get borne of the store employes
jialnt a few palm trees and .some south
ern landbcape on the canvas wind-breaks
and thus make the players and specta
tors believe they were doivn in Florida
or some other place where It Is warm.
The suggestion, while a good one, was
not carried out.
The cha'rs, which were receiving an
awful walloping from the wind, were
rescued late in the afternoon and
dragged to their corner. They were not
missed, for no one could get up enough
courage to sit down. The faster one
moved the better one liked it.
i ,
Wind Gets Decision ,
While the absence of heat was tlw
main topic of discussion, the spectators
found some time to watch the players ,
dash hither and thither, on the courts. I
Iclhya Kumagae nnd Sellchlro Knshlo
came oer from New York to show their
ability; Bill Tllden advanced by defeat
Ing Herman Dornhelm; Paul Gibbons did '
the expected by downing "Duke" Mun- '
yon ; Craig Blddle defeated George
Powell while Harold, Taylor won from ,
Bart PflngBt.
Ken though Kumagae Is rated In
the first ten. he failed to wipe "Hoss"
Hanna, of Stenton. off the courts. Tho
wind gained the decision In this bout,
for It almost blew both of them off the
roof, Hanna played a wonderful game)
nnd surprised himself and Paul Gibbons
by taking six games from Ichlya. Both
players made some fine shots, but It
was so cold no one dared take their
hands out of their overcoat pockets.
After winning their matches, Kashlo
nnd Kumagae took a train back to New
York to attend to their business. Tr-ey
will be back again tomorrow. Kashlo
meets Bill Tllden while Kumagae plays

By EDWIN J. POLLOCK
P12NN'S basketrers passed Into first
place In the drhe for the lntercol
Icelnto championship by presenting
Princeton with a huge mauling In
Wolichtman Hall last night, 37-21.
"Parsed" Is the correct word, for tho
Ited and Blue tossed the ball ovpr heads,
under arms, betwepn legs and around
chins In n fashion that had the Tigers
believing they were In a mystic rpaze.
Princeton had a splendid system of at
tack nnd defense. Everything was all
mapped out nhead of time, and Coach
Fred Louhrlng had an elaborate set of
Biennis that moved the T'gers Into the
right positions on every occasion. All
tho details were carr'ed out with ex
treme care, nnd the Jersey boys. Jumped
Into their places for evpry play as if they
wcro pulled by a string.
The only thing that Interfered
with tho complete success of the
well-planned operations was the Penn
team. Gray was supposed to get the tap
and knock the ball to a guard or for
ward, nccordlng to the s'gml Different
places were mnppod out for the other
members of the quintet ana the ball ap.
parently wns supposed to be passed to
set positions.
System Goes "Blooie"
The system met Its first obstacle In
I.ardle Davis, for the Penn capta'n and
Jump man 'nvarlably got tho tap, nnd
when he didn't Penn men rudely stepped
between Tlgr.s and the ball and broke
up set plans and players with equal non
chalance. Penn's one-sided triumph was the re
sult of one of the most marvelous ex
hibitions of team play seen In Weight
man Hall for many seasons The Quak
ers seemed to know Instlnct'vely rather
than seo where their teammates were
located. Very little of the Penn scoring
Was producd by Individual playlnir.
The reverse was true of the Tigers.
'Once their system failed the players fell
hack to their own efforts and there
wasn't ono Prlneetontan good enough to
give nny of the Quakers wrinkles.
Mike Sweeney had a field day, or
night, In scoring. Ho boosted his lead
In the league tallying by droplng n clean
half doa-n of field goals thronirh the net
from scrimmage, and. In addition, made
rive fouls out of seven chances. Mike's
total for the evening was seventeen
points.
Four Stannard Coals
Andy Stannard was right on the heels
of the Atlantic City hoy In scoring. He
bagged two In the first half nnd came
through with a pair In the second pe
riod. Danny McNIchoI contributed three
besides playing a remarkable floor game.
Two More Swim Stars
Join Meadowbrook'to
Compete Next Season
Two more lorl swimming (tars
have Joined the ranks of the Meadow
brook Club, and they will compet
for the Wanamaker orgnnliatlnn In
the outdoor event neit summer.
They are Vie llolti and Tom Cowrll,
both of the West Philadelphia 11 1 ill
Hrhool, who starred In the national
Interseliolastlo title racs In the
Welghtman Ilnll tank last Saturday.
Iltrttx won first In the fifty and hun
dred ami swain on the winning relay
team, a feat that lins not been ae
rninpllshed before In the sixteen years
of national championships. Coivsll
competed for the victorious West
Phlllle relay team.
and Captain Davis made two. Peck
registered ono two-pointer.
In Justice to Princeton' It must be
stated that the team was weakened
considerably by the absence of Captain
Trimble, who Is suffering from a broken
hand. Ople, the other regular forward,
Is a smart player and together they
would have made an excellent pair.
Ople was the best Tiger on the floor
In shooting and court playing. He slipped
In three goats on Dutch Peck, and any
young man who can accomplish that
feat Is no mean exponent of the game.
He also mado sexen fouls. Oray was
tho only other Tiger to score, 11
dropped In a pair of field goals.
Penn now holds the lead with thre
games won and one lost. Princeton and
Yale are tied for second with a pair of
victories nnd one defeat.
