COBBiVEs MEN Special Practice Handed Out to Bot Infield and Outfield by Georgia Peach DEL PRA TT' GOING GOOD WITH REST OF DETROIT INFIELDERI Augusta, 0a., March 17.-Tyrus Cobb is not going to take his squad of diamond stars and put them in action before he has a chance to give them a few of his ideas. . During the past two days there has been -rainy weathei and batting and fielding practice i prevented but the Tigers have been kept busy every minute. Yesterday'. and today's sessions have taken up special infield and outfield drill. Cobb has spent most of his time with the inner circle, showing them the ap- proved methods of breaking up hit- and-run plays and double steals. The old timers, Blue, Rigney, and Jones didn't take long to get back into the old system and Del Pratt showed prom- ise of being as good at it as anyone with a few days practice. Pratt is an open eyed player and the Peach banks on him to help considerably in break- ing up the base running tricks of thc other leaguers. Rip Collins Takes Instructions The outfielders got their share of practice throwing to the bases from their positions in the garden. Cobb wants tp avoid every chance of a cost- ly slip' because of want of practic in throwing in to the basemen. Rip Collins; the new pitcher from the Red Sox took a long lesson in throwing the ballkto the basess, a thing he ad- mitted he knew nothing about. Be- fore the afternoon was over he had good fast throw down to perfection. If the weather is pleasant this afte- noon as it promises to be the squad will be divided up into sides for a six innings game, the first scrimmage of the season. REDI SOX PIRATES GO EASY Hot Springs, Ark., March 17.-Both the .Boston Americans and the Pitts- burg Pirates took things rather easy today owing to 'the ot weather. A short scrimmage between the Red Sox and their scrubs resulted in a 9-2 win for the "varsity". A number of long drives by Johnny Mitchell and McMI-1 lan helped the regulars to win. Mitchel got a homer, a double, and a single while his teammate got a triple,. a- double, and a single. hhnke, holding down the rubber for the first stringers held his opponents down to five safe. blows. The Pirates seemed to feel the hot weather more than the Sox did and they limited their activities to a few limbering up exercises. McKechni has a crew of experienced warriors and he would rather risk a slow start than a chance of growing stale from .overtraining before the season gets well started. All of his menare out of condition and light exercise is on the program for them during the com- ing week or ten days. Intramural Items After a hard battle with Heilbrunn and Langlois yesterday in which their7 opponents copped the first two match- es of the set, Sanchez and Langlois took on Scarnachia and Langlois in the finals for the All-campus hand-i ball doubles championship.
