O'"’""YNCE upon a time there was a man ns hard as FEINT v___J (his other name was RHEM), and some 38,000 people In the year 1926 A. D. came out one day to see him and his cohorts tease a BABE—=a regular Roman holiday. It was called a world series in those days, possibly because of the international antecedents of many of the participants. “Let the HORNSBY blown and the BELLS ring out,” shouted the populace who liked that sort of thing and were worked up to a great pitch. It was quite an affair —three spectacles, in fact, because TOPORCER wore a pair. They made all sorts of fun of this RARE KI TII. When he took off his cap politely when they cheered, someone shouted, “What a funny way ho COMBS his hair.” That’s the kind of people they were. Don’t HOYT him they yelled at FLINT, evidently imitating the Bowery talk of New York. The spectators were unconvinced of the prowess of the BABE. They did not realize the MEUSEL that was in those broad shoulders. But BABE surprised them. He grabbed a war club and knocked a HOLM run right in amongst his tormentors. “Maybe sonio of you still DOUTHIT,” bellowed the incensed JJARE and clouted another one far, far away which SEVEREID a couple of telephone poles outside the park. Then the citizens got really angry and started taking their spito out on old Bill Klein, the umpire. “Get Jesse James a horse and a GEH RIG to go with it. He’s too old to ride horseback. You buy the nag and we’ll pay the HA-FEY." The spectators quaked in terror as the BABE came up again. “Bean him,” they hollered. “Put him in the hospital. If he LAZZERI can't do any harm.” Rut RARE was not afraid. Ho wa.4 KEEN for the battle and aimed another mighty blasting drive at- the centerfleld mob. “Now, let’s hear you say something,” said the RARE. “How much is SOI'THWORTH now? Come on downtown tonight with some of your celebrations and I*ll dance the Rlaek BOTTOMLEY for you on Main St.” It was just too much. BABE had conquered. He had struck FLINT twice and rung the BELL. A few (New York supporters in the stands' had their inning. “Where’s your pep?” they yelled. “Why don't you encourage your pitcher? Give HALLAHAN; he’s doing the best he can. When you come to New York Saturday bring FLOWERS for the Cards —fiiies.” After the game St. Louis was strangely quiet. Even Silent THEVENOW seemed noisy. Only a little colored boy congratulated the BABE. The Bambino slipped him a five spot and remarked, “Y’ou’re O. KOENIG.” The parting shot of one New York fan just before he disappeared into bis hotel was this, “So tills is your fair cily. O’FARRELL, we say. You’re bughouse, here.” (It looks as though RETNHART has been left out of this little story. We get the second guess. That’s what Manager Hornsby should have done Wednesday.) ** * , Sh-sh-shush —come over clone nnd we'll tell you a worst—Babe Ruth got three home runs Wednesday. * * * r ' viELL, folks, the world series l\X/l 81° hack to New Y’ork. I_. J This makes the club owners sore ns anything. It really does make the sporting editors sore , (except the ones who bet on the Yanks). It means another Saturday with baseball and football all mixed up. Butler at Illinois, Wabash at Purdue, Notre Dame at Minnesota and St. Louis at New York. Something should be done about these overlapping seasons. * * * There's a fallow who used to live in St. Louta JKho has an aunt who found out from her eo"sin's uncle about some* thimr that hannonrd ycutardnv. Thin certain party toM us confidentially, if we would promise not to repeat it. that Ruth trot three homers in the world series prime Wednesday. Now don’t tell anybody. ** * ' S'lE life of a baseball "expert” is just one durn thing after another. It’s just another day and another angle The poor old Y'anks were all through after their second defeat. Hornsby had Rhem and Reinhart left to pitch and Huggins had only Hoyt. It seems as though Rogers ako had H. Bell, Hallahan and Keen. The Cards were going to sweep the series, it was said that even money was offered that the series would end in St. Louis. (We didn’t see any of it around Indianapolis). The Yanks just could not hit. One noted writer answered one of those hypothetical questions, “Why doesn't Ruth make some home runs?" He said, "The answer is simple. It is because the St. Louis pitchers know better than to pitch to Ituth, where he can hit homers. They are not so confiding as the New York hurlers." The answer is not so simple now. * * * The series today reached the point where it was the best two c-ut cf three. Can tlie Cards take two of the last three as they did at the start? * * * Such in Fate. Hoyt pitches the worst game of any Yankee hurler and gets credit for a victory. Fourteen hits and five runs were nothing to worry about. Wee Willie Sherdel of St. Louis allows six hits and two runs in the seven innings he works in the first fray and is charged with a defeat. Strange are the pranks of Fortune. * * • Have you heard the news? Babe Ruth got three home run* Wednesday.

CHANGES PLANNED IN STATE High School Athletic Association in Annual Meeting Here Oct. 21. Bu United Press ANDERSON, Ind., Oet. 7.—The question of whether Indiana high school basketball teams should be allowed to participate in the national tournament at Chicago each spring again will be brought up for discus sion at a meeting of the legislative body of the Indiana State High School Athletic Association at Indianapolis the evening of Oct. 20. The annual general meeting will be held on Thursday at 10 a. m. at Manual High School auditorium. The legislative body will make its report at this time. Twenty-one proposals for changes in regulations of the I. H. S. A. A. will be brought up before the legislative body, Trester stated, and two of these deal with the national tournament question. One proposal provides "that any team good enough to receive an invitation” be allowed to participate while the other states that the winner of the championship tournament be entered in the meet. The I. H. S. A. A. board of control has denied the appeal of South Side High School, Ft. YVayne, for reinstatement to the association, Trester announced. Tho Ft. Wayne school asked to be reinstated on the grounds that it had made changes in the school to conform with regulations of the association. V. L. Eikenberry of Vincennes, the town that saw its basketball team win thirty-two consecutive games in one season a few years ago, will present a proposal that the number of games allowed each season be raised to twenty-two, Trester said.

AS BABE RUTH GOES SO GO THE N. Yt YANKEES Bambino Leads the Way and American League Champs Snap Out of Slump.

Ry Billy Evans Veteran Major League Umpire. ST. LOUIS, Oct. 6.—As Babe Ruth goes, so go the Y'anks. That has long been a Y'ankee truth. It was proved beyond a doubt in the fourth game of the world series. Dropping around to the New Y'ork bench while the Y'anks were taking batting practice, I engaged Manager Miller Huggins in conversation thusly: “When do you expect your noble athletes to start hitting?” "I’ve been wondering about that very same thing for a month,” was his reply. “If the Babe will only start, the rest of the boys will follow suit. Y'ou know he always shows the way when the Y'anks are in a slugging mood.” Colonel Ruppert, owner of the New York club, was listening in on the conversation. The Colonel, by the way, was in far from an optimistic mood. Tho Colonel Speaks “You can tell the boys, if any pinch batters are necessary in today's game, I think I can do the job just as well as some of the players.” The Colonel talked rather loudly and the irony of his opinion apparently sunk in. However, there was no need of calling on the colonel, Babe Ruth per*, pally took care of that. The only Bambino, baseball’s greatest slugger, gave the most extraordinary exhibition of long distance hitting ever seen in a world serit-s game. Anytime the Cardinal pitchers got the ball within socking distance, Babe proceeded to hit it over the garden wall. He did it three times. Far, Far Away There was nothing synthetic about Babe's home runs. The first cleared tho right field bleachers by a mile, the second was a line drive over the right center stands, while tho third settled far up in the extreme centerficld seats, the longest distance in the park from the plate to the fence. On the other two occasions that Babe stepped to the plate he was

walked. He would have needed a Ashing pole to hit any of the balls served him. YVith Babe cutting up, the rest of the team followed suit, as Manager Huggins had predicted. Aside from Ruth's home runs, singles and doubles rattled off the Y'ankee bats with monotonous regularity. In addition, the St. Louis pitchers issued ten baseg on halls. The Cards made as many base hits as New Y’ork, but they were not nearly ns productive. For a time it. seemed as If ShorN stop Koenig’s inexperience might cost New Y'ork another game.

Before the inning was over the Cards had scored three gift runs and had gone into the lead. That was iiv. the fourth inning. However, Reinhart, who had been substituted for Rhem, immediately relieved the tenseness of the situation for the Yanks by putting on an exhibition of wildness that made you think of Ranch 101. Five bases on balls and one lone two-bagger resulted in four runs. That settled the ball game; the rest was just a procession. HURT WHEN BABE HITS Scoreboard Fan Falls Off Fence When Homer Is Made.

Fifth Series Game on Schedule With Teams on Even Terms Again. Bu United Press ST. LOUIS, Oct. 7. —There was a noticeable absence of the previous noise and clamor of celebration here today as St. Louis baseball fans settled down to tho serious business of helping tlie Cardinals to a world series championship. The realization was driven home with Y'ankee bats YVednesday, that this contest isn’t won by anybody yet. The score Wednesday was 10 to 5, New Y'ork. Ruth's homers Wednesday, were greeted with prolonged cheers from the stands such as might have greeted similar homers by Rogers Hornsby. It was a genuine tribute to Ruth. Although the city spent comparatively quiet night—-the first since the Cardinals won the pennant, there was no lack of enthusiasm and loyalty today. The same long, twist- 1 ing lines could be seen outside the gates to Sportsman's Park this morning. Many of them had been there all night. Rogers Hornsby, Cardinal pilot, who was in a position twenty-four hours ago in which lie could afford to gamble with a pitcher, today founil himself in a spot where he could not afford to take chances. Hoyt Lucky Miller Huggins, mite manager of the American League champions was forced to pitch YY'aite Hoyt in the fourth tilt and he must be admitting down in his heart that Hoyt was lucky to annex his game. “Ruth is hitting and when Ruth hits the Yankees hit with him." the American League fans were shouting around the hotels and the crowd that saw YY'ednesday’s game was willing to admit that the Babe is hitting and that the Cardinal pitchers aren’t as sure as they looked a few days ago. There was very little to the fourth game but Babe Ruth, and the home run king playing in his seventh world's series, made a record that may stand for years when he hit three home runs and practically broke up the ball game. There certainly was nothing aooi dental In the hitting of the Babe. His second homer sailed clear over the stands and out of the park, and his third one landed high up among the fans In the center field stands, one of the longest drives he ever has made, and he has made record drives in nearly every baseball park In the land. Show Strain Players of both teams showed the effects of the strain under which they are playing, but the Y'ankees were steadier in the pinches and they didn't press as much at the bat as did the younger St. Ixuis players. New rttendance records for St. Louis have been made in the two games here. The Y’anks’ first two runs YY'odnesday, made in the first and third innings, were homers by Ruth when no one was on base. Igizzori brought in the third score in the fourth inning. when Hafey and Douthit colafter Dugan's high fiy in left. Combs, ICoenig. Ruth and

By Major Hoople. SPORTSMAN’S PARK, St. Louis, Oct. 7. —Egad folks, a bit of confidential news today. Immediately after Tuesday’s contest I was summoned by special messenger for a conference with Mr. Huggins, the Yankee manager. The problem in mind was to overcome a bit of strategy the Cardinals resorted to in holding Mr. Babe Ruth harmless with his mighty bludgeon. It seems the Cardinal hurlers were instructed to toss the Babe a slow tloater ball, a mean and difficult sphere to hit. After pondering the matter over for a few minutes, 1 struck upon a clever and unique idea. 1 suggested that Babe Ruth be outfitted with a special pair of eyeglasses, equipped with two highspeed lenses, borrowed from some obliging press photographer’s camera. Such a pair of glasses would create an optical illusion, to which he

Meusel tallied in the next inning, ! when the Cardinal pitching completely collapsed. Ruth's third homer of ■the day, in the sixth tuning, scored Combs ahead of him. Severeid, who had singled, scored on Combs' double in the seventh. Singles by Douthit, Southworth nnd Hornsby yielded the first Cardinal run in the initial irning. After Hafey singled in the fourth, Koenig fumbled a chance for a double play t>n O’Farrell's blow. Thevenow's double scored Ilafey and Toporcer’s sacrifice brought in O'Farrell. Douthit's double scored Thevenow. The Cards used five pitchers— Rhem, Reinhart, H. Bell, Hallahan and Keen. POLO PONIES SOU) Bu United Pt ess NEW YORK, Oct. 7—The thirtyfour mounts of the Argentine polo team were sold at auction YY’ednesIday. bringing a total of $139,400.

could adjust himself in the batsman’s box. YVhen the slow floater ball was hurled, the glasses would seemingly speed up the action of the ball, and all Babe had to do then would be to bash out his customary home run. Haw. My suggestion was taken by Miller Huggins YVednesday with unbounded enthusiasm. By Jove! The game. At first, two Y’ank batters were struck out and the crowd acted iij the manner of the old bloodthirsty Romans at a majinee in the Coliseum. Egad, then Babe Ruth hit the first ball tossed for a home ruu over the right field wall. In some manner the Cards learned of my talk Tuesday evening with Huggins, and instructed Mr. Rhem, the pitcher, to hurl fast balls to tha Babe. On the way to the batsman's box Babe discarded the glasses. By the way folks, in appreciation of my suggestion. Babe glanced up to my seat and dedicated his first home run to me.

FIGURES PENNOCK TO LOSE Hendricks Believes Cards Will Beat Yanks’ Star Lefty—Boosts Sherdel. Ry .lack Hendricks Manager of tho Cincinnati Reds 1 Written for tho United Press) ST. LOUIS* Oct. 7. —There wasn't a thing to tlflfc. fourth world series game, YVednesday, but the hitting of Babe Ruth and that's all was needed for the Y'ankees to win the game, 10 to 5, and pull up into another ties YVith the Cardinals. Ruth gave the greatest demonstration of long, powerful batting that I ever have seen and he not only accounted for four runs, but he Inspired the whole Y'ankee team and demoralized the Cardinals. Hornsby probably xvill be criticised for allowing his pitchers to pitch to the Babe, but he hardly could have done otherwise. The fans pay to see Ruth hit and even if he blew up the ball game I don’t believe the big crowd regretted seeing his great demonstration. Another thing, the St. Louis pitchers worked on him and gave him very few good balls to hit at. I expect, to see Sherdel pitch today for the cards and I expected to see him get away with his game because the Y'ankees can’t murder slow balls they way they killed everything In the fourth game. The Y'ankees, I thought, would use Pennock today and I didn’t look for him to be as good as he was in the first game, although he is one of the best southpaws in baseball. Shocker pitched almost an, entire game in the bull pen YV'ednesday, aind Huggins can hardly use him before the sixth game in New York, Saturday.
