Mar. 26.— (U.E —Babe Ruth believe* the NewYork Yankees and Chicago Cubs will meet in the 1930 world series, in naming the Yankees for first place in the American league, Ruth exceeded the optimism of manager Shawkey who last week said the Yanks and Athletics had an even chance for the pennant. “A great ball club repeats, and I don’t think the Athletics are a ' great ball club —not. with that in I field.” announced the Babe. Except in the cases of the NewYork ami Philadelphia clubs, Ruth adhered closely to the final standing's of 1929 in his American league predictions for this year. In the National league he picked Cincinnati to advance from seventh to third place. Here is how Ruth says the clubs will finish on September 28: American Finish National New York First Chicago Philadelphia Second Pittsburgh Cleveland Third Cincinnati St. Ixmis Fourth New York Detroit Fifth St. Chicago Sixth Philadelphia Washington Seventh Brooklyn Boston Eighth Boston According to Ruth the American league Is due for its tightest race since 1922, when the Yankees beat the Browns by one game. Six clubs are stronger, he says, while the Athletics will be just about what they were in 1929 and the Stnators will be weaker than they were last season. ‘‘Give the Yankees a little pitching and they will overpower the league,” said Ruth. "We have the best club in either league. Our pitching is hound to be much better. “Cincinnati will he the trouble maker for the Cubs in the National league but won't have the power to finish higher than third. "I think both leagues will have closer races and I believe interest in baseball will be greater than ever all around the country." rO Get the Habit—7 rade at Home,

SPEED TRIALS TO CONTINUE

Daytona Bech, Fla.. Mur. 26. (U.PJ The International speed trials in which Kaye Don of England is attempting to set a world’s automobile speed record, stumbled over a bucket of paint last night and for an hour seemed perilously near a comedy ending. The paint had been applied to the nose of the Silver Bullet. Don’s 4.00(1 hor e power super-car. to make it more visible against the background of white sand. When the management of the trials heard that the Silver Bullet had developed a flaming red nose overnight, it became lnflam n d and notified Don's managers that no red-nosed car could slide down Daytona's nice white beach to a speed record. A half hour after the ultimatum was delivered, however, the crisis naßsed, Lou’s Co:>te!en designe.' of the car. and Don sent a joint communication to the management saying that if red noses were offensive th ■ Silver Bullet would be returned immediately to its original. modest, mousey grey. Spectators complained, and officials of the meet agreed with them, that the Silver Bullet merged so closely into the color of the sand that it was not visible a mile away. So it was painted roil. Then someone suggested that a few miles of talkie films had teen made of the car for use when and if it breaks the record, and many other pictures of it taken, showing the Silver Bullet as modest as I a maiden lady in its grey garb. Th re was a council of war and plans were made to take all the pictures over again today. Don agreed to make a new speech into the talkie- microphone to harmonize with a red nosed car and his sister. Mrs. Rita Livesay, was understood to be will tig to break a new bottle of domestic champagne on the repainted snout. It was just at that juncture that Vai Haresnape, director of the trials, became incensed and sent his ultimatum. He wanted to know what sort of business it was to enter a nice, silver grey car named Silver Bullet in a speed trial and then to trot out a vivid, red-nosed monster with stripes down its side and waiving red tail feathers. He pointed out what the entry blank said and all of that. It was deadly serious. Don and Coatelen got their copies of the letter first. A half hour later they averted catastrophe by dispatching an answer. They hadn t meant any harm, they explained. Rather they wanted “your public” as they put it, to be able to see the car. But if red was a color irr.tating to Daytona, they'd surely wipe the Silver Bullet's nose before it appears n public again. Which seem d to settle that.

The menagerie of the SellsFloto circus, which arrived yesterday suffered heavily. A Springbok, born on the South African veldt, two monkeys from the tropical jungles and two cockatoos died from effects of the cold and dampness. Keepers watched elephants, camels anil other hot weather animals closely for fear of pneumonia. Gwendolyn Stevens, 7, was thankful that eskiinoes invented the igloo. She fell into a six-foot snow drift near her home. For an hour, while her father searcher for her. she crouched in her snow shelter. Her father saw her hat' on top the drift, dug down and . found Gwendolyn quite snug and safe. • Chicago theaters had their big-1 gest night in months right after the blizzard. Thousands of office I workers and shoppers, unable to get home, registered at hotels and then went to shows. • — Six federal prisoners decided the storm plays no favorites. The 1 patrol wagon in which they were being taken from jail to the federal building stalled in a drift. That allowed them a 24 hour respite before arraignment. But they had to walk back to jail. Motorcycle Policeman Frank Sieradzki spent three hours in the blizzard “riding herd” on seven steers which broke out of a truck that was wrecked against an abutment. He rounded up six of them 1 and shot the seventh when it broke its leg. • • • 0 . , . Four Harmony Kings at D. H. S. Auditorium, Friday Night. 73t3
