Los Angeles, July 20—Teddy Hayes, Jack Dempsey's trainer, has arrived here and plans hold a conference with Jess Willard concerning the projected bout between Jess and the champion late this fall. (BB EULOGZES PLAYERS OF TODAY It's Harder to Break Into Majors Now, Says Ty New York, July 20.—(By Associat- ed Press.)—There are more good baseball players today than ever be- fore——more good ones in proportion to the poor ones—and it requires more of an pll-around better man to break in and stick in the big leagues than it did in the heydey of the departed “immortals'” a generation ago, This {s the studied opinion of Tyrus Raymond Cobh, one of the greatest players of all time, who stands today on the threshold of that cloister in- habited by half a dozen managers who have been handed consistently losing- down-hearted teams, rejuvenated them and made sturdy, classy pen- nant contenders of thelr new combi- nations. Cobb Always a Star, Cobb always has been an individual star and a paragon for small boys who surround him for a pat on the head. He holds the American league record for the highest batting aver- age, .420; the highest life-time aver- age around .370; has topped compet- itors 13 times, nine in succession and now is fighting it out with George Sisler for this year's title. Late in 1920 Cobb succeeded Hugh Jennings as manager of the second di- vision Detroit Tigers. He discarded some worn out material, retained the nucleus of a club and now has an aggregation within calling distance of first place. Pitching Is Puzzling. “You don’t know what a pitcher is giving you now," Ty said in the Tigers’ clubhouse after coming from a 5 to 1 defeat of the Yanks, in which he con- | tributed two hits. ‘“Pitching goes 1n cycles. Once it was the fast ball, then the curve, then the spitball, then the emery ball and now it's a combination of everything." There have been tremendous changes in baseball during the 18 vears that Ty has been in the game, he sail. Ball is Livelier. The greatest change has been in the pitchers’ box which, of course, has recessitated corresponding changes in the art of batting but Ty feels sure that the ball is “livelier'" now and that the new pellet in a large: measure ac- counts for the abnormally long drives and the dozens of home runs. Of all that has gone from he game Ty regres most keenly tiie fighting | spirit of the old teams, the combative mood of men like himself who came into the profession when loyalty to his club was demanded and who fight as defenders and conquerors not as interesting entertainers drawing great salaries for cold skill. “The ‘old home town' has gone,” he sald. Admits Slowing Up. Ty repeated his observation of the spring, ‘“he's slowing up.” I tire niore easily and I require more sleep —no more late nights for me. But I'm going to play as long as I can, though I don't know how long that will be. I know I should have hit that last one today GET READY FOR ALIBIS Mrs. Molla Mallory Returns From England, After Unsuccessful Meet- ing With Mlle. zanne Lenglen. New York, July 20.—Mrs. Molla Pjurstedt Mallory, American woman tennis champion, who was defeated by Mlle. Suzanne Lenglen in the finals of the world’s championship at Wim- bledon, returned from England today on the Homeric. WERIDEN' CHANGES FOR CUP ARE GONE New Britain Trade School Wins by 18 to 8 Score The New Britain Trade school base- ball team definitely killed Meriden's chance for the léague cup by a 13 to 3 defeat yesterday afternoon at Wal- nut Hill park. Seaberg, the ‘black and orange’ pitcher, allowed the Silver city boys a total of only six hits while the locals took the measure of the visi- tors to the tune of 14 safe hits, The scoring was started in the third frame when Meriden succeeded in squeezing one run across the plate on a wild throw., However, New Brit- ain came back and batted in four jruns before the opposing pitcher was pulled out of the box. The places South Manchester and Britain tied for first place in the northern section of the league. To- morrow afternoon the locals will meet South Manchester in the last game of the series. The ‘'black and orange’ handed South Manchester a 7 to 3 defeat last week and are hoping to meet Bridgeport next week for the state champlonship. NEW BRITAIN TRADE SCHOOIL ab.

TESREAU PULLS A “BABE RUTH"” Philadelphia, July 20.—Jeff Tes- reau, former Giant, pulled a “Babe Ruth’” act here last night in a twi- light game when he threw dust at Umpire Amey following a close de- cision. Tesreau, who was pitching for the South Phillies, was imme- diately chased from the game The trouble came in the fourth inning, when Tesreau’'s team was leading the Accos of York, Pa, 1 to 0, the up- staters having but one hit off Jeff.

TN'T LEAVE HER ALONE PRINCE LOREE WINS 55,000 TROT RACE Equals Michigan State Record of 2:08 3-4 or Mile Kalamazoo, Mich., July 20.—~Prinee Loree, winnér of the 85,000 Paper Mills purse, was obliged to equal the State trotting record of 2:03%, made by Mabel Trask in the same évent en the Jocal track in 1916, in order to defeat the Great Volo, the favorite in the first heat here yesterday. The double-gaited champion then annexed the two other miles and won with the Cox colt a close second in each heat. The three miles were made in the average time of 2:05, Sun Flash had a hard time defeat- ing Esta G. in the 2:17 pace. The Cox entry finished first in the initial heat, but followed the Canadian mare under the wire in the second. Cox came back and won the third heat in easy fashion with Esta G., finishing way back. Parker Boy, the favorite in the 2:09 pace, had a hard time finishing ahead of Peter Hanle. The latter was first under the wire in the second heat, but Berry, in whipping finishes, man- aged to land the two other heats. The 2:14 trot provided the upset of the afternoon. Bill Sharen, the Nova Scotia flash, making his first start in two years on the Grand Circuit, was the favorite. The $25,000 performer finished fifth in the second and third heats, after which he was sent to the barn by Tommy Murphy. Tops Todd, the Canadian mare, finished be- hind Holy Reod Hilda in the first heat and then came back and took the next two. The crowd was one of the largest that has ever attended a Grand Cir- cuit meeting in this city.
