RUTH WANTS TO h MANAGE CLUB (thicaao, Aug s:7—(UP)—Jtalxe ’ Ruth, who revolutionized baseball ' with his home-run hitting, nurses 1 , an ambition to take a second-divi-sion ball club and rebuild it into a ’ pennant winner. Clad in purple silk pajamas and • smoking a pipe, Ruth sat in his > suite In a Lake Shore hotel yester- , day and told about his future asplr- ; ations. | “1 give myself just two more . years as a regular player," he said, "and then I’ll be ready to start lookl ing for a manager's job. By the end i of the 1933 season 1 will have playI ed 20 years in the majors and then I I'll be ready to retire from active I duty.” "Do you think you have the right . temperament for a manager?” Ruth was asked. “Well, the only way to settle that 1 Is for me to get a chance as a manI ager. I have a lot of ideals about running a club and I'd like to try ’ them out. I'd take any Major League ( manager's job. It makes no difference whether it was a last place club or a first division outfit. If I took a ready made team I wouldn't bet as much credit as 1 would it I built up a winner myself." “When you are through as an active player, would you be willing to si' on the bench and act only as a pinch-hitter?” “No slree," said Babe, “The only way I'll sit on a bench after I’m . through is managing a team.'

Past 37 and playing his 18th seaI son in the American League, Ru*b continues to hold his tremendous I appeal to the baseball, public as the | series just ended between the Chii cago White Sox and Yankees I proves,. The White Sox, a sad secI ond division club, player! to 143,500 in four days and Babe Ruth was the . principal drawing card. Last SunI day's double header attracted 50,000 paid customers, the greatest crowd ever to see a ball game in Chicago. Some critics believe Ruth has slowed up considerably in the outfield the past year, but none ca 1 dispute his ability to continue to I hit any and all kinds of pitching. He is leading both Major Leagues in home runs with 37 and is second on ly to Al Simmons in batting. Simmons who has been out ot the lineup for sometime, is batting .385 and Ruth .381. Ruth's popularity an dhifc batting are going to come up for a lot of discussion this winter when Babe asks for his 1932 contract. His present 2-year contract at SBO,OOO per annum expires this season. “Do you expect to get SBO,OOO next year?" “I don’t see why not," he replied. “I'm having one of my best years. "Don’t you think the depression would justify the Yankees cutting your salary?” “I haven't noticed any depression , as far as the Y’ankees are concern ed. We have broken attendance rec-1 ords in New York. Boston and Chicago and have been backing them ' in all season. I'm certainly going to I ask for another big contract and I'm ' not thinking about taking a cut.” | Although Babe won the American ; League batting championship in | 1924, he wants to walk up the • stairs to Col. Jacob Ruppert's brewery sometime this winter and say: "Well. Colonel, how about another SBO,OUO a year on a 2-year contract for the Major League home run king. American League batting champion and the biggest drawing card in baseball?" Col. Reppert might not have an answer for that one, either, depression or not. Do-X ARRIVES AT NEW YORK . <CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) | its 12 motors roaring rythmically, sped low along the water front and passed the battery at the lower tip of Manhattan. The Do-X, trim despite its great | size, circled once around the statue iof Liberty and then, flying low, headed up the Hudson river. It | was flying at about 500 feet. An escort of four planes accompanied the trans-Atlantic visitor. ■Other plane?, not officially in the reception, carrying photographers and police, flew about the Do X. like fliers about a huge bird. o CANNON PROBE PROMISES LIFE (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) over a string of hank accounts of the Virginia bishop. Another banker also was called today, F. P. Ferguson. of the Hudson Bank, Tren- J ton, N. J. He will be asked about I a mysterious account in a Virginia bank which was labeled “file A" by the committee. Jameson has been out of the picture since he first revealed :o the Caraway lobby committee his $65.300 contribution. Miss Burroughs, in a report tiled with the clerk of J the house ot representatives February 11. 1929, noted receipt of only $17,000. Both she and Jameson are expected to be asked about tile dis ference. KIDNAPED MAN IS RETURNED (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE> $50,000 for Lynch's freedom.

him. The order for ills arrest was ’ issued by Pat. Roche, chief investigator of the state's attorney's office. Roche said he feared several killings might result and declared he was going to “stamp out this terrifying kidnaping business once and for all." Lynch disappeared last Thursday while en route from here to bis Wisconsin home. No report was made of his kidnaping, but the news spread. His general news bureau furnishes horse racing information to handbook operators throughout the country and he is nationally known among gamblers. It became known then that Martin Guilfoyle, a handbook operators and friend of Lynch, was negotiating with the kidnapers, who demanded $250,000 for Lynch's release. Mrs. Lynch also received several calls from the kidnapers. On Saturday, the daily racing form, a turf publication, offered) ■025.000 reward for arrest and conviclion of the kidnapers, expressing a desire to stamp out the gangs wliicn in recent months have levied heavy tribute from men engaged in one way or another in the lacing business. Police of two other states became interested in the case after a Beaver Dam, Wis., salesman, reported lie actually had seen Lynch kid- ■ naped at a point a few miles south I of Lake Geneva. , Capone was drawn into the case I | when Guilfoyle and other friends I lof Lynch appealed to him to use ■ his influence in the matter. i "I'm doing all I can.” said Capone I the following day. The United ! P, oas then learned that Capone | believed Lynch was being held by I his own underworld enemies, who . had imported gangsters from St. Louis to do the actual kidnaping. o—, 0 —, Distinctive Belongings The* expression "lares and pen ates" is used collectively to dcnoti the personal and individual belong Ings in a hone which made it dis tinctively one's home. In ancient Home the lares were the household gods, usually defined ancestors or heroes; the penates were also guardian deities of the household and tile state, but were more In the nature of personifications of natural powers, their duty being to bring wealth and plenty rattier that. , to ward off danger. o Device for Heating Drinks A loggerhead used in making old-fashioned drinks was an iron tool having a long handle ending in n ball or bulb. It was heated and thrust into the prepared drink to heat it Lowell said: “The loggerhead, whose hissing dip. Timed by wise instinct, creamed 1 the howl of flip."

London, Aug. 27—<U.R> —Secretary of State Stimson reached London from Scotland today and had a 90-minute conversation with Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald at 10 Downing street. It was understood the statesmen discussed Anglo-American relations in view of the recent change in the British government, although an announcement said their conversations were purely personal. It was understood that MacDonald assured Stimson that measures immediately effective in the British financial situation were proceeding and that the situation was now quite good. o Concerning Chimneya The bureau of agricultural en I gineeriug says ili.it, while a round chimney is preferable to a square I one. both are satisfactory. if a | chimney is straight and the air | current Is strong, smoke is likely 1 to travel straight up. If it meets an obstruction, or if there is only a light draft, the currents will carry it up spirally. Edible Bird’s Nest The nest of the selangave is valuable as food. It is used as a delicacy by the Chinese. It has the shape and size of a half teacup. Is attached to the rock In the interior of a cave and has the appearance of fibrous gelatin. It is composed of a mucilaginous substance or Isinglass, recreted by special glands, and is not. us was thought, that made from a glu tinous seaweed. o End of the Mamelukes The Mamelukes were slaves brought into Egypt from the Caucasus and formed into a standing army. In 1254 the army raised one of Its members to the supreme power. Mamelukes ruled over Egypt until 1517. when they were over thrown by Selim I, sultan of Turk ey. The country was ruled by 25 Mameluke beys under a Turkish i viceroy. In 1811 the pasha of Egypt, by a wholesale massacre. ! annihilated the Mamelukes. 0 Picturesque New Mexico The population of New Mexico has a large percentage of Mexican origin. In many towns Spanish Is the predominant language. There are also numerous Indian pueblos where travelers may see a mode of life remarkably different from that of their own.
