Ty Cobb Seems
Set On Retiring
Atlanta.—Old Ty Cobb seems
determined to go through with
his promise to hang up his spik
es.
Outside the baseball fold for
the first time in more than 'JO
years, the great Georgian is
showing no signs of yielding to
the urge of the game he grac
ed so long.
Here today oil oilier business,
Cobb said:
'Tie had enough of it If I ever
come back it will be as an owner, I
will never sign again ns a player
and I have no desire to manage an
other club.
"it is going to be hard to stay,
out and I don’t intend to stay out.
One of llicse days you will read
where Ty Cobb has bought a rlub
It probably will be right here in
the south, too’’
Cobb is as brown as a berry and
says he is in first, class trim. He
feels he lias a couple of years of
playing left in his system, but
wants to retire before his batting
average falls below the .300 mark.
For a golfer who has been giving
the links a more or less wide berth
for the better part of a year, Bobby
Jones is showing surprising form in
his early practice rounds for the
I National open and National ama
|teur tournaments.
Hr went around the difficult East
j Lake course in t>5 (lie other day to
I serve notice to the golfing world
that he will have to be reckoned
with both at Winger Foot and at
Del Monte.
Hobby reached the 17m 'tee with
| par 4-3 left for a 66. He finished in
j 2-4, on the 17th, which is 400
yards long, he sank a mashie-nib
| lick pitch for a 2 and ti cn clicked
off a four on the 18th.
After that deuce on the 17th.
Jones had a 2 left for a 63 which
would have tied his course record
made in 1922,
Back from New' York and Chica
go where he talked business with
various fight promoters on behalf
of his husky son, Pa Stribling is at
Macon ready to receive delegations
from Miami regarding a proposed
Tommy Loughran-Young Stnbling !
bout there next, winter.
Miami sportsmen are said to be
considering financing the fight
which would be held in the arena
the city of Miami bought from the
Madison Square Garden Corpora
tion following the Sharkey-Stribling
contest In February.
The Striblings are not averse to
another meeting with Loughran
The Georgian has fought Tommy

with the third bout a draw.
