The Big Race
Here is the up-to-the-minute dope on
how the "Big Five” batters of the !
American league are hitting:
PLAYER. a.B. H. Av. I
COBB 488 201 .412
SPEAKER 505 200 .396
JACKSON 490 180 .367!
COLLINS 454 154 339 i
Ty Cobb now has a sixteen - point lead ■
over Tris Speaker As there is only a 1
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
day and secured one hit. Jackson was 1
up four times and banged out two safe i
swats. Lajoie secured one hit in three
attempts. Speaker and Collins "stood
still,” as neither the Red Sox nor Ath
letics played.

his home in California, but is expected j

half, and Captain Norman, full. Ket
ley. Mills and Norman are the on tv
men that have had much experience,
and it is mostly on these that the
Orange and Black supporters mil.:',
rely. The others, while for the mos’
part good men. are inexperienced.
Mercer can not count much on the
new men. Os these, however. Holman,
who played center at Norman Parr,
looks pretty good. Grice, a brother of
last year's center, will also be out fm
the team, but he i» young and
