HEIN IE MANUSII
DETROIT.—Heinie Mnnush, Detroit rookie, looms c~ the successor
of Ty Cobb, ns center fielder for the Tygcrs.
Cobb’s legs are bothering him. IIo can t cover the ground hr
once did and he lacks the old-time speed on the bases. Father Time
is taking his toll.
In Manush, Detroit appears to have picked lip the most promis'ng
outfielder of the year. tile has wonderful natural ability. Ho lacks
only experience and confidence in that nbiMtt.
“Mnnush is n grout hitter now. In a couple of yearn ho will be one
of the most talked about batters in the Lni snow. He alx i gives
promise of being an exceptional fielder. In a couple of yearn bo will
have arrived with a vengeance.”
There you have Cobb’s opinion of Manush. Surely, Cobb, the great
est ball player of all time, the super batsman, shculd knew a prom
ising rookie when he sees one.
Cobb hiu placed the stamp of approval on Manush. He is grooming
the youngster to replace him in the outfield, for Cobb doesn't figure
he has more than a couple more years’ service in his system.
