Champion

One of the ablest baseballers who ever lived, famed Tyrus Raymond ("Ty") Cobb is now one of the world's richest retired athletes. His fortune consists mostly of fat Coca-Cola holdings which he bought long ago on advice from his hunting crony, Coca-Cola's President Bob Woodruff. When he quit professional baseball in 1928, Cobb toured Europe with his wife and four of their five children, went to Scotland for a season's shooting, returned to his 10,000-acre farm in his native Georgia. Five years ago, he bought a house at Atherton, Calif., 30 miles south of San Francisco, where he and his family now live. Apparently as spry as ever, he amuses himself by golf, which he plays lefthanded, polo, hunting, fishing.

At Del Monte, Calif., last week Ty Cobb entered the California Indians' Golf Tournament. He got a 77 in the second round, won the championship. 3 1/2 up, from one W. W. Wurlburn in the final.
