Ty Cobb, outfielder extraerdinary of the Detroit team, has three more games left thie season to add a few points to a r rd that demonsirates him the greatest plaver of the age. Cobb possesses the distinction never before gained of creating three new recoras in the same campaign. He is the champion Yatter, base runner and run getter. His 246 base hits recorded up to last Saturday night shatters the all-major league record of 243 made by Willie Keeler with Baltimore in 1897, which has since stood as a target for all com- ers. Larry T.ajoie, with 145 ruas to his credit in the season of 1901 held the world’s record, but Cobb beat this by one run when he crossed the plate for a sccre on Tuesday in the game against Cleveland. And lastly he has stolen 83 bases, which betters the rec- ard mark eof RBddie Collins last seasen, who pilfered 81. Harry Stovey of the Athletios is giv- en credit fer having stolen 156 bases in the season ef 1388, and there is a minor league record of recent. date at is better tman Collins’ figure of eightv-one, but it is generally con- ceded that it is not so easy to steal bases in 191! in the major leagues as it is in a minor league, or as it was in the year 1888 in a major league. Anyhow. Collins’ eighty-one stolen bases of 1910 was the best record of the last ten seasons. Since 1906, when he made his debut as a majer league player, Cobb has set a high standard ef play.

Football Coaches Mapping Forward Passes to Suit Modification of Rules. The coaches of the major college teams are making efforts to develop fast, active®backfields, with a strong line to protect the backs in the execu- tion of intricate playvs, says Walter Eckersall. It must be admitted that the most of the mentors are throwing into the discard the big Ilumbersome backs who used to be in such demond when the ultimate make-up of a team was considered. In fast, the same thing is true of the line, and unless a candidate possesses unnatural speed with the combination of strength and agility, his chances of ‘“making good” are few. The coaches already are taking ad- vantage of the change in the penalt for an incompleted forward pass, an there is every reason to believe the forward pass will’ be used more this season than has at any time since the was introduced. With the peunalty calling for the ball to be put in play at the point of the preceding down instead of at the point of the pass, coaches and players ate certain to take more liberties with the foerward pass than they have at any time since the play was adopted. Under the old rule, when a forward pass. was incompleted, the ball was brought back to the point of the pass and a penalty of a down inflicted. A there still remains a ruie which reads that a forward pass must be made from a point at least five yards back of the line of scrimmage, it is apparent that the penalization for an incomplet- ed forward pass will bring the ball back at least 6 to 10 yards back of its original position. As there is nothing to lose, under the present rules, for the failure to complete a pass, the couches are taking advantage of every possibility within the rules to perfect plays, by which the forward pass will be successful. Anotner play coaches are enthusiastic over is to take away the quarterback from his original posi- tion and line him up on a parallel line with the backs. In doing away with the quarter it means the pass must he made directly from the center to the man who is to carry the ball, and the function of the quarterback is to be another cog in the interference. In this it must be admitted the quarter lends less value to tlie play in that the different fermations have not the deception that thev weould have if the ball were passed through the hands of the quarter first and then :\as fed to some other member of the eam, HARVARD’S DROP KICKER. Crimson Has a New Wonder, Better Than Kennard. Such 2 drop kicker as Milholland ha not appeared at Harvard in yeass, ever, and this not forgetting Kennard, whose drop kick goal three seasons ago brought to the Crimson’s camp its one football victory over Yale in a decade. i Milholland trottéd out on the‘field Sat- urday and with delightful eoolness took his place to make his try at goal. It was nene too good a pass that came back from center, but he shifted the ball in his hands without a sign of ner- vousness. Poised for an instant and then dropped, it seemed almost care- lessly, the ball rose again and sped on its way directly between the uprights of the goal. A goal would have been scored had Milholland stood &0 yards or 45 yards from the goal line instead of just outside the kickeut houndary, but there seemed no effort in the swin of his leg, and the splendid distance o the kick seemed due to the perfect leverage of the pendulum rather than to muscular power. What Gardiner and Milholiand showed Saturday as indications of later ue surely was enough for one day. th men have three varsity seasons before them if all goes well, and if Hitchcock, in whom there appears to be the makings er another splendid forward, does as well at the start as these tweo class- mates, last vear’s freshman team will have done much to fill in the gaps left by McKay and Withingten, besides furnishing Harvard with an invaluable scoring machine in Milholland, who as a goal kicker today stands as a well nigh finished product, surely.— Boston Globe.
