During Past Season Awakened Ad- miration of Fans. The pitching feats of Jack Coombs during the last year have awakened the admiration of baseball fans. The Colby veteran returned to the pitch- ing box after an illness that would have driven nine men out of ten into retirement. \ Even now he works under a handi- cap that would rob almost any other pitcher of his effectiveness. He wears more straps and braces than a foot ball player, yet he works along with an easy swing that is most remark- able. Every time Jack gets ready to go out on the field he wears a heavy rubber brace from kneé to hip, and supplements . this with yards and yards of bandages. Jack adds a heavy steel brace to this equipment. His protective devices. do not rob him of his speed and agility, for Jack is rated' as ome of the best fielding pitchers in the major leagues. He is a hitter of ability, too, and there are no pitchers who make a practice of passing the catcher ta take a crack at Jack, TY'S UNIQUE RECORD. Heé Made Twenty-eight. Hits in Seven Games, Great. hitters produce some uni- que records in the way of rolling up their averages. Take the 'case of Ty Cobb. Last seasoni Cobb led the league in hitting and piled up a total of 208 hits. In compiling this record, Tyrus was slamming the ball consistently. Only once during the 1915 season did he amass as many as four hits in one game. During the season just closed Ty- rus was forced to bow before the slugging prowess of Tris Speaker. | Tristain led Tyrus both in the matter of hitting average as well as in the number of hits registered. Cobb failed to land as many as he did in 1915. Yet during the season just finisher Cebb counted as many as four hits to a game no less than the bad boy of the Inter-Provineial Union until he was politely informed! that the Ottawa club would have to worry along without him, J Marty has been granted a provis-| ional lieutenancy in the artillery and | will qualify at Kingston.

"Mickey" Roach, Desjardines, Whitten and "Patsy" Sequin, last year with the Boston Arena team, are now in New York, and will prob- ably be seen there with one ofthe amateur hockey league teams.

Landis is de- clared to be the choice of several major league baseball magnates for chairman of the National Commis- smash right on through and down SiON. in case that position should be' vacated by Augfst Herrmann. The attitude of Judge Landis on the subject, however, was not stated, the jurist apparently not having been J advised that his name was to be brought into the list of possibilities for the position. Judge Landis' well-known admira< tion of the national game is given as the reason for the suggestion of his name in connection with a place on the commission. . Y, NOVEMBER 7; 1916. | HOCKEY NOTES. . | There are half a dozen Canadian | players now residing in Boston who will probably play this winter for one of the teams in that city, According to a story printed in {a St. Paul, Minn., paper, Manager Charlton, of the team of that city, was in Eastern Canada recently and signed two star players for the' St. Paul team. Bonney Mohan and Wel- lington are also slated to play for St. Paul. The Boston A. A. team, which have the right to challenge for the Art Ross Cup, now held by the Sons of Ireland team of Quebec. will pass up the chance to play, believing it may lead them into trouble with the O. H. A., with which body they desire to remain friendly. Another of Orillia's hockey players has passed to the Great Bevond while serving his country on the battle- field. Sergt.-Major Norman Harvie was killed in action on Oct. 15th. tlarvie was one of Orillia's best for- wards, and was a member of several championship teams. He played two seasons ago on the team that won the intermediate championship of O.H.A., and was also prominent as a junior. He might have had a com- mission, but declined to be parted from the other Orillia boys in the battery in which the Orillia hockey- ists enlisted.
