Bartholomew United Press Correspondent Glenbrook, Nev., Dec. 5 (U.R) Who's the ballplayer's ban player of all time? I put that one up to the man who Is certainly the sports crit ics' pick as the greatest star of baseball, Tyrus Raymond Cobb. . The big fellow stood in front ot his luxurious log home high up in- the Sierra Nevadas and looked thoughtfully through the pines out over he sparkling waters of Lake Tahoe. "Eddie Collins," he said. Could Do All "And that was really a tough question. . There were great catchers, great infielders and great outfielders. Mickey Coch rane, Sisler. All were line hit ters. Some had long careers and some short. Many had un usual ability to aid their teams in other ways. "But for a man who could do anything hit, field, run bases, and play real inside and brainy baseball Eddie Collins stands in front." To get the 1944-48 season of the hot stovers really under way I asked Ty who was the greatest hitter of them all. "That would be Joe Jackson," hs said. "Jackson hit with a full swing and at the end of his bat. A real slugger. And he was In there during all the trick pitching the spltball, emery ball and all the rest." On the subject of pitchers, trick and otherwise, I asked Cobb which one gave hira per sonally the most trouble and why. i i - 'AH pitchers bothered me," he said seriously, a modest re mark for the man who's life time batting average was over .300 for 8,033 major league games. I guess . left-handed Carl Weilman of the Browns, George F Jack Raymond Cox, if, of. St. Louis, held In the county jail since November 17 on a charge of obtaining money under false pretenses, was released by Jus tice of the Peace W. P. Tucker yesterday. The youth has a brother living at Vancouver, Wash. The court directed that Cox be placed by officers on a northbound stage. He naa sui- ficient funds to make good the two spurious checks he passed. and pay his fare to Vancouver, also to reimburse nil oroiner for advances.- . .

The two nave Deen employed by the forest service the past summer ana nave mon ey coming from that agency, they said. They agreed to relm burse the Innkeeper for room rent. .

I gave Ty the big question last his all-time all-star team of American baseball, complete with three pitchers and two catchers. "All right, but 111 limit my pick to the men I have actually played against, with one excep tion," he said. "There are many great ball players I've never seen and for that reason I'll have to exclude them from my lineup. The exception is Catcher Bill Dickey, who was after my time in baseball but belongs be yond question on anybody's all star lineup. ' "The catchers, then, are Dickey and Mickey Cochrane. - Plank Left Hander "The pitchers, Johnson and Walsh, and then because we have to have a left-hander, Eddie Plank. - "In the infield, Sisler at first, Eddie Collins at second, Hans Wagner at short. At third, be cause we are selecting great ball players regardless of what happened In the past, Buck Weaver, (Weaver was one of the eight Chicago - players ' who were barred from baseball after the Black Sox scandal.) "lit the outfield, Jackson in left, Speaker In center and Babe Ruth in right. "There's a team for you. Any ktd could manage it. But since an all-star team ought to have an all-star manager let s give the job to Connie Mack, for be was tops." I asked what we had better do with Ty Cobb In the mythi cal lineup. "Let's you and me take him fishing for some of those trout out there," said the Georgia peach with an amiable grin.
