FANS COMPARE COBB WITH OTHER CRACKS

Jn Chicago and Cleveland the fans insist on comparing Cobb with their star and predicting that the Peach will meet his master this season for the first time since he fought his way to the top. In Chicago Joe Jackson is the fellow the bugs pick to beat Ty. and in Cleveland it is Speaker. St. Louis has Sisler, the Athletics have Larry Lajoie and the Washington fans are still sweet on Clyde Milan.

IDOLS OF THE BIG LEAGUES.
