Cobb declared this is the first time he has had anything to say regarding gcoring at New York during the last series with Detroit in 192]. *“I have tried to let it pass by, he stated, “but since they are ralging such a commotion in New York over the dis- {puted hit, let them investigate this matter also. “Of eourse the publie understands that T had nothing te do with the fact that President Johnson awarded me the hit in question,” Cobb con- {eluded, “but ginee the aforementioned | baseball writérs are reperted to have 'threatened to protest this action, 1 would like to have the gcoring in that lagt series at New York ih 1921 clear- jed up,” i President Lieb Issues Statement. Frederick G. Lieb, president of the 1 Baseball Writers' association and the scorer who credited Ty Cobb with a doubtful hit in the Associated Press box score of May 15, issued the fol- lowing statement here yesterday: The Ame;ics,n league had ne au- | therity to ‘accept the unofficial score of the Detroit-Yankesa game played in New Yeork on May 15, 1922, in preference to the official scere. My failure to agree with the offi- elal scorer in the disputed play was due to the fact that“it was a rainy stand. Had Mr. Kieran been in the preéss stand the Assoclated Press score comipiléd by me would have agreed with the official score. Ohviously when there was a dif- ference of opinion between the #&vo scores, the official and not the un- official score would have heen ‘ac- cepted. There would be no further need for meémbers of the Baseball Writers' as- seociation serving as official seorers. If their scores were relegated to a peeondary position whenever they failed to agree with unofticial aver- ages. No member of the New York chap- ter of the Baseball Writers' associa- tion begrudges Cobb a .400 batting average, but the use of baseball rec- ords will be undérmined when rec- ords are deliberately tampered with in order to favor any batsman, wheth- er he be a ‘star or a mediocre player.

Johngon's action In surrendering to the demands of Judge Landls and several of his own club owners took ! baséball men by surprise last night. Earlier in the day thé American lea- gue head had announced that he had advanced the date of the annual meeting a day, byt had kept Chjcagoe (a8 the place of the assemblage, This action, although violating stict pro- visions of the leggue constitution, was accepted as the final concession which Johnson would make, and local basé- ball followers, therefore, were amaz- ¢d to hear of his further surrender. 1t is the second time since Landis wad first mentioned as “dictator" of baseball that Johngon has been fore- ©d to back down to the former jur- igt. One was at the time of Landls' appointment, when only. the threat of three American league clubs and the eight National leagye owners te form a new twelve club league forced ‘Johnsén to aceéede to the appoint- ment, Earlier this week Johngon had flat- ly refused to change the place of his meeting despite the fact that in Oc- tober he had agreed to New York, and knew that Landis had issued a call for a joint meeting the day after the American leagye conclave here. For the preseit, then, Byron Ban- croft has given in, but it remgins to be seen whether he will be so docile or the judge so fergiving at the joint meeting on Thursday. It is net known however, that Johnsen himself will at- tend, but this is considered likely, now that his own league will meet here the day before. Landis' original pagram now stahds, and both leagues are certain to be present when the judge takes hold of the gavel.
