Talking It Over BY JOE WILLIAMS
NEW YORK, Dec. 6.—The cheapest commodity in baseball today is the home run. Consider how ■what was once the most spectacular offensive feat in the game has been burlesqued. About seventeen years ago a reformed meat butcher from Trapp*. Md.. became known as the home run king of baseball. Tc earn this distinction he hit thirteen home rum in nne season. His name was J Franklin Baker and he played third base for the Philadelphia Athletics. • * * A derate Ister Geo ret Hermw Erhardt Ruth anubrii hi* *T to lu* *>?

Everybody, who saw the last world series came away agreed that George Earnshaw is the greatest righthander in baseball. Practically nnglebanded he pitched the Athletics into the championship over the St. Louis Cardinals. ana Even members of the defeated team admitted they had never faced a treater riebthander than the Swarthmore eolleria.n.

Its ranking is done on the basis of the number of earned runs allowed in a nine-inning game. Thus a pitcher could win fifty games and still finish quite low in the rankings. * ana home baseball men maintain this is the only accurate gauge of a pitcher's ability. And in many Instances it probably Is. But a number of great pitchers rate their pare accordingly; If they are forced to bear down all the wav they do, otherwise they do not. ana This Is particularly true Pf veterans who bet as much comfort out of winning bv 3 to 6 as 1 to 0. Mathewson is still looked upon as the greatest pitcher of all time. Low score victories meant little to him except when he needed them. He rated his pace to meet the demands of the moment.

THREE QUINTETS TOP EARLY SEASON PREP LIST
Frankfort, Washington, Artesians Show Power Muncie, Logansport, Horace Mann and Connersville Press Early Season Cage Leaders: Berries Tackle Champs Tonight in Feature Scrap.
BY VERN BOXELL A trio of quintets today laid claim to whatever laurels may be awarded Hoosier prep quintets this early In the season. Frankfort, Washingt-n and Martinsville, always rated among the topnotchers, have proven their superiority decisively over early season foes. Four other teams are pressing close on the heels of the leaders. They are Muncie, Logansport, Horace Mann of Gary and Connersville. Everett Case’s Frankfort Hot Dogs, with five veterans remaining from the squad which advanced to the semi-finals of the state tourney last March, stacks up as the outstanding team on early season record. The Fighting Five came through with a 34 to 15 triumph over Kokomo, previously unbeaten, Friday night to cop the lead in the North Central conference. Red Thompson again is sparkplug of the Frankfort quintet. Martinsville Here Martinsville ran up a 32 to 22 verdict on Franklin, old rival, at the Artesian City. Glenn Curtis’ quintet showed their best form of the season and will be favorites over Tim Campbell's Tech quintet here tonight. Tech trounced Rochester at the northern city Friday, 34 to 19. Washington’s state championship Hatchets were idle Friday, but face one of their stiffest tests to date when they tackle Cliff Well’s Logansport five tonight at the Berry City. The Logans coasted to a 30 to 19 triumph over Morton at Richmond Friday, and with ibig Meade at Center, appear as a serious
Cruising in Sportland WITH EDDIE ASH
HOWARD FITZGERALD, lefthanded swatter coming from Wichita Falls to Johnny Coriden's Indians, batted in 102 runs last season during the Texas League compaign. He was recommended to the Tribe by Ken Penner, former Indian pitcher, and Art Phelan, a manager in the Texas loop for years. In 150 games in 1930, Fitz compiled a batting average of .331 and was especially effective at the business of smacking out doubles, his total being fifty-one. Fourteen home runs and seven triples also were collected by the fly chaser. His hit total was 183 and total bases 300. Other statistics are: Runs scored. 134; stolen bases, 10; bases on balls, 81; strikeouts, 48. • a a a a a a Anew heavyweight from the west coast region, Max Baer, is in New York to take the build-up process and there are rumors indicating the young giant has promise. He is 21, weighs 197 bedside, and stands 6 feet 3 inches. Max is advertised as a former cowboy and acts the part, having plenty of gusto. He is an Art Shires of the ring. Baer will meet the experienced Ernie Schaaf Dec. 19 and New York boxing experts will reserve official opinion until then.
nnHE aftermath of the Thanks- j *• giving day charity football | game in Chicago was not so sweet. I It was played between old-time stars j of Northwestern and Notre Dame : and several of the men were pulled in from far parts of the country. After the scoreless contest in which one of the vets received a fractured rib, it was learned funds were insufficient to pay all j players’ expenses. Knute Rockne was placed in a pickle over the j players whom he had invited to per- j form and was compelled to use his ; own money to meet their bills. tt tt Giants and Cubs both seek the j services of pitcher Red Lucas of the Cincy Reds and it is said if the matter comes down to a question of money that Owner Wrigley of the Bruins is quite willing to match bankrolls with John McGraw. a tt tt TY COBB and Branch Rickey have been mentioned as craving to purchase the Philly Nationals if the heirs of William Baker wish to sell. Both men are in a position to produce the necessarymoney. Cobb on his own and Richey through backing. It would be a fine tiling for baseball to have fireeating Ty back in the majors. a tt tt Two members of the local boxing fraternity who meet in a rivalry battle about every two weeks, here and out in the sticks, were seen doing light training Friday afternoon. They partook of a light lunch together and then took in a movie. Evidently they had an important grudge match out of town Friday night. tt n u THE canine mascots of the rival De Pauw and Wabarh football teams engaged in a brawl after the annual game Nov. 23. and a few days ago. Junior, the De Pauw dog, succumbed to blood poisoning resulting from lacerations received in the fight. Students of the two schools milled around the fighting mascots, and while De Pauw followers are not saying one of the Wabash sympathizers bit their dog, causing its death, some Tiger men do allege their mascot was kicked, which constitutes a foul. a a Notre Dame will lose a swarm of grid warriors this year, their careers on the white lines ending today.. It will be the last action for fourteen members of the squad, as follows: Carideo, Brill, Mullins, Howard, O’Connor. Bernie Leahy. Kaplan. O'Brien, K&ssis. Metzger. Frank Leahy, Donoghue, Conley and Ylk. That is a lot of talent to lose. HUGE GRID PROFITS Notre Dame Plays Before 534,000 for Season. SOUTH BEND. Ind., Dec. 6.-In-cluding Saturday's game in Los Angeles. the Notre Dame grid team will have played before an estimated total attendance of 534,000, with an estimated gross intake of $1,800,000. It is believed one-fourth of ‘this amount will net receipts for the Irish. I Home crowds fell below expectations, but every game away from ' home has been a sell-out. This year's figures are below attendance and receipts of 1929.

I threat to Washington's hopes for a ! second successive undefeated sea- : son. Muncie. defeated by Frankfort and HunUngton. staged a spectacu- ! lar comeback Friday to trounce Anderson, 32 to 17, in a rivalry bat- ! tie. The Bearcat veterans apparently have regained the stride | which carried them to runner-up honors last season. Horace Mann again appears the leader of the far north section. The Crown five opened the season Friday with an impressive 21-to-7 triumph over Hammond. Emerson of Gary also appears strong, turning in a 44 to 14 count over Michigan City in its opener. Goshen nosed out Mishawaka, 18 to 15, and Washington of East Chicago gained a 15 to 14 edge over Valparaiso in an overtime battle in other northern features. Another Fehring Connersville’s speedy quintet, led by Ennis, husky guard, let Bedford down on the short end of a 17-to-15 verdict. Vincennes disposed of "an old rival by sidestepping Sullivan, 27 to 20, and Delphi's Oracles passed Peru, 28 to 23. Fehring, brother of the big center on las tyear’s team, led Columbus to a 34-to-33 victory over Rushville, while Newcastle dropped Lebanon, 27 to 24. Wiley of Terre Haute opened the Wabash alley season with a 19-to-14 win over Linton, Marion stopped Hartford City, 24 to 17, and Shortridge showed promise by dropping Greenfield, 29 to 19, in other state i features.
