Ty Cobb broke into the \nlrl'ienn
League in l905. lie is the oldest ac-
the ball player in the league as to
serlice and years.
Cobb has seen a flock of athletrn
come and go during his 20 yrals of
campaigning in the big show. lie
has mingled with the stars of the
past and prose-ml
l'eccnlly in discussing the failure
of smelal highly touted phenoms to
deliver. I asked Tyrus how he sized
up the game of 20 years ago with
the 1926 \intage.
“It's better In some ways. perhaps
not so good in others. it's an en-
tirely different style but the fans
like it andfllat is all that is neces-
sarv.
"’l he hitting for sexcral years has
dominated the game and with that
condition existing inside baseball
has suffered."
When I asked him if there was
any feature play in which he noted
a. decided difference, be answered
thuslx, almost before I had finished
my question.
"There was more fight in the old
days. A majmity of the players were
more aggressive and this made for
keeper competition."
I must agree with T)’ on that
angle. but have no solution to offer
for such a condition.

(iron-r tiletelaud Alexander has
lost some. of the "zip" on the lust
ball that once made him the great-
est rival oi Walter Johnson but he
is still some pitcher. - ,
Ordinarily when l have an off
day the ball park is one place I
shun.’ I was in Chicago recently with
the afternoon off and the Cubs were
scheduled to play the Cardinals.
I really had no intention of going
to the ball game until I learned that
AIOXantIl‘r was slated to pitcll. I
hadn‘t seen him in action since the
1915 world series between the Phil.
adelphia. Nationals and Boston Red
Sox. in which 1 was one of tile um.
pires.

Big Attraction.
At that time Alexander was at
the height of his career. He had
everything IDCIl‘dInQ‘ a side-arm
t O
' tire to take in the game. Here was
fast ball that fairly whistlcd as it
sped to the plate. Q
Incidentally. there was the great
Rogers Hornsby as an extra. incen-
the champion batsman arrayed
against; the old master. Settle attrac-
tion.
It didn't take but a. few balls to
convince me that the good old right
a, of Alexander had suffered from
th wear and tear of many hard
seasons. There was a bit of effort
rather than smoothness to his do—
livery but: it was easy to see that he
was still n._ master pitcher.
He won his game. 3.2. and gave '1
fine exhibition of pitching in which
his brain s’erved to better purpose?
than his arm.

Discussing pitching with Alexanc

into the game' since he lnhde his de-

"The lively ball has made quite a

might say the lively baitmade a.

Gene Serosen— Voluntary slice
It is one thing to be able to slice
I. golf shot and another to control
the slice. The average beginner. fall-
ing to'keep the elbows close to the
body. is prone to cut across the ball,
which invariably produces a slice.
That isn‘t the kind of sliced shot
I was after. What I set out to devel-
Op and what I needed was- the kind
ot slice that had a. slight fade-away
to the right.
I decided to change the position of
the ball instead of the position of
my feet.
1 moved the battle and fro until
I had located the right spot, al-
most opposite the heel of my left
foot. In'other words. I found that
by playing the hall more of! the left
foot than the right and by cutting
across the bail liightly I got the re-
sult: I desired. I play most of my
shots with the ball almofi opposite
