I don't want to be one of those who fade or have to be pushed out and, of course, I will never walk to the plate in a minor league.” The former manager of the Tyge! known as one of the greatest fight- ing players who ever graced a major league diamond, was in tears as he finished the statement that his base ball playing days were over. “The Georgia Peach” said: Of course 1 can still hit 'em.

Ball said Howley had signed a three-year contract and would take charge of the club at once. The salary was not made public, but is under- stood to be more than $13000 a year, the amount he has been receiving irom Toronto.

NEW YORK, November Cobb, the greatest bas in the American League in hi: and called by scme the gre ball player who ever lived, has sre- signed as manager of the Detroit | Tygers and will he succeeded by | George Moriarty, umpire of the | \merican League, poet and former 11 player. This was the news that hit most of the base ball world between the eves today, but it did not hit all} hase ball men unexpectedly. There | has been friction between Cobb and Frank Navin, president of the De- troft club, for some time in a gen- eral way. Cobb {s reputed to have said that he wished certain ball players to be purchased for the team. Navin is said to have refused to make the appropriation. Cobb wanted Navin to go after several successful play- | ors. Perhaps the kid, Paul Waner, | now with Pittsburgh, is one of them. Owner Navin No Spendthrift. Navin is no spendthrift and the Detroit club has not scattered money right and left to build up its strength, although some excellent selections of players have been made now and then. Cobb had the resignation move in mind more than a year ago. He was not satisfied with his business relations and said He did not make it public and had no desire to d0 0. He pointed out certain things ich he had been unable to do he- cause of lack of co-operation. Now the Detroit club has lost one of the greatest drawing cards in the history of base ball. Navin probably figured that at some time he would have to lose Cobb and that he might s well take the bull by the horns when he had Cobb's resignation before him. Moriarty gained prominence as a player when he was with the New York Americans under the Farrell regime. Then he went to Detroit, where he did well. He is a very fine voung man with a capital knowledge of the national game. | Howley a Capable Pilot. oe Detroit ) Detroit etroit troit Detroit 6—Detrojt 7—Detroit R 70 GO & e A iy R0 101 140 [iprerioete WORLD SERIE: = 10 roit i 1908—Detroit T 1909—Detroit 3 L oF COMPLETE MAJOR LEAGUE TOTALS.

No.| indeed. This Ladies' District League idea has been in existence for more | than a year, but only recently did it seem there an opportunity to launch such a project. All of the teams are representative | jof big bowling alleys.

Here's the hest )" luck to the new outfit. Arlingtons are stepping along in the | Athletic Club League. For a_time it | was feared that, having won 13 games {in a row, the team was jinxed. But | it came right back to run i {to 16 at the expense of Reilly outfit. There may be bowlers who still contend that observance of the foul line rule is of no consequence, but they are not members of the Bureau of Plant Industry outfit in the A League. The Agriculture Interbureau {is using a foul line judge this season. fand in the very first game no les: than nine fouls were called on the Plant Industry shoote Since no fouls were called on their opponent: and_the latter won the first game | by 11 pins, the second by 9 and the third by 15, it is gradually beginning | to soak into the minds of the losers that playing the zames according to rules would have enabled them to win {all three instead of losing that num- ber. Sliding over the line may seem un- important, but oh, what : would go up from the sliders if the pinboy spotted the pins a foot farther up the alley for their opponents who re | mained back of the line! Tt is odd Ithat 2 man who would not think of violating the rules in a checker game feels perfectly free to ignore them in ! duckpins. Not so long ago a man who dropped in late on_a Federal League !"mzz('(!" Cooper of the Aggies for | blowing a couple of spares in his sec- ond game and intimated that he should be benched. Cooper had just | shot 144 for his first game, but the “razzer” had not seen that. For that matter, Cooper went above the 100 mark in all three games. But the average spectator seldom stops to conslder that the hest of them fail- to land all their breaks. In fact, it is doubtful if any bowler in town gets more than 60 per cent of his spare breaks. Check this up some time and you will be a trifle more restrained in your ecriticism.
