NEW, BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, Fans Keeping Sharp Eye on Great Fight Between Cobb and Speaker Detroit, Sept. 12.—The eyes of the baseball world are now centered on the spirited row between Ty Cobb and Tris Speaker for the batting honors of the American league. Speak- er has been leading the stick artists of Ban Johnson's circuit for some weeks with a high percentage. A short time ago Cobb was in a batting slump, but during the past few weeks he has been hitting like a streak. Fans here believe Tyrus will pass Speaker in a week or so if he keeps up his present batting streak. Tris is also going well, and Cleveland fans to a man are willing to bet their last dol- lar that the Indians’ great outfielder will lead until the finish. Should Cobb finish the season at the head of the swatters it wiil be the tenth consecu- tive time he has done so. At the present writing Speaker’'s Dbatting average is .380, while Cobb’s is .365. Photo on left shows Speaker taking a healthy swing; one on right Cobb ready to lean on one.

Discussion many times drifted among those who keep in touch with affairs at the school particularly those pertaining to sports, as to who in late years, has been the greatest all-around perform- er. There are manry who are unani- mous in voicing their approval of the claims that Dudack has won these honors, by virtue of his record on the football, basketball and baseball teams. There has never at any time been any questions as to the ability of Dudack, and many a game, whether it was on the gridiron, basketball court or dia- mond, has been snatched from the throes of defeat by some spectacular piece of work by Dudack.
