Now, it so happens that" one Harry Heilman. a member or Mr. Cobb's club, has been in a very close race with i hi bo&Sr for the leadership of the American League in hitting. Up to Svndav's game Hei.man wae leading. .391 to .310. Cobb has led the American League so often that it has ceased to be much of a novelty. However, it would have been a considerable of a feather iti bis cap at that leading the league in his ttrst year as a playing manager. On the other hand, if Heilman took tHe honors, it would be the first time in the history of the American League that a right-handed batter reached the top. Which meant a lot to the said Htilman. Now the question is. Did Cobb de liberately efface himself from the laet g;;me of the season m order that Heilman might have an opportunity to further increase his narrow lead and thus make his leadership unquestioned? Pal Moore has quit his old managers, Tommy Walsh and Nate Lewis. (Quit ting Walsh and Lewis is one of the best things Moore does. Moore an nounces he will handle his own busi ness from now on. Coaches, each of whom is regarded as an authority in his field, , have contributed part of their knowl'-dge in condensed form to the 1921 edition of "How to Play Fotoball," a volume in the Spalding Aathletic Horary.

The return of Yousouf Mahmout. the Turkish wrestler, to this country after an absence of eight years recalls i memories of the original Terrible T; rk, Yousouf, who went down on the ill-fated La Bourgogne in l9b. Vcusout was a wonderful grappler, a r.ian of gigantic strength and Machia vellian cunning. The giant from the shores of the Bosphorous was about in a class by himself. This is Mahmout's third visit to America. There are many who claim Mahijiout is the real champion. The title was turned over to Mahmout by Frank Gotch in 1912, and Yousouf ras r.tver lost a single fall since that time. Mahmout is now thirty-seven years old and weighs 206 pounds. He s willing to meet any wrestler in th3 ; business. He is under management of Emil Klank. - former mentor for Frank Gotch during the closing can paign of the late champion.

Arrangements for a return world's heavyweight cham pionship bout between Champion Jack Dempsey and Jess Willard, former holder of the title, regarded as practi cally completed a few weeks ago, now appear on the verge of dissolution. Promoter Tex Rickard. who planned the battle for July 1, in his arena in Jersey City, has exhibited impatience with Willard's delay in returning: a signed contract for the battle. Reports have been received here that Willard has made a "strike" in one of his oil investments, and. if the reports are true, it is regarded as unlikely that hp will devote the necessary time to training for another match with Dernp sey. BUFF DEFENDS TITLE IN FIFTEEN ROUNDS New York, Nov. 10. Johnny Buff, world's champion bantamweight, will defend his title tonight against Jack Sharkey in a 15-round bout. Sharkey has announced that he will make a de termined effort to snatch the laurels from the brow of Buff, who has held the title only five weeks after wrest ing it from Pete. Herman. Sharkey was the only man in the country good enough and fast enough to whip Jimmy Wilde when the great little Welshman came over here, and Buff is prepared to defend his new title with the best he" has.
