TY COBB GIVES ADVICE Philadelphia, Jan. 20.—Ty Cobb lis distributing the following timely advice to ball players: "I think baseball players are begin ning to realizo that subterfuge has no part In the successful promotion of the national pastime. The game has been injured greatly therefrom the past sea son. And. though it is still honest and always will remain so, the vacillating attitude of the many mercenary play ers has doubtless raised vague suspi cions in the public mind in some quar ters. No one blames a player for sell ing his services to the very best advan tage. But a contract, written or ver bid is a sacred thing. Evasion through technicality is no sound excuse for dis honor. Let the least corruption creep into the manipulation of the game and the careful work of years will be de stroyed. The baseball player has as much at stake in the present fight as any one. The outcome means no less than his future." Bits of Sports The Willard club defeated the St. Matthew club last night. Score 23 to 18. The Otterbein Boys' club defeated Reily Grammar esterday.
