Along with the better hopes of a
good football team at Tech, there ai>o
comes most encouraging news in re
gard to the baseball prospects for
next ■'■pt'ing. Os course, between now
and that time there are many things
that may occur to upset all dope and
change good prospects into the gloom
iest of realities.
Mid-year exams always thin the
ranks, and athletes seem to be those

years. IlowevV'i there is a man from

American league are hitting:

Ty Cobb now has a sixteen-point lead
t over Tris Speaker As there is only a
, month more of playing, it looks as
though the "Georgia Peach" will never
. be headed by the Boston slugger.
Cobb went to bat three times yester
. i day and secured one hit. Jackson was
( ; up four times and banged out two safe
swats. Lajoie secured one hit in three
| attempts. Speaker and Collins "stood
