By Eddie Ash OLD BABE, HE STICKS TO BASEBALL m m 9 RUTH IS IN ACT OF SAVIOR AGAIN
'T'HE price of beans is due to soar. Babe Ruth is going A back to Boston. The Goliath of Swat launched his big league career in the Hub, climbed to fame, was sold to the New York Yankees, and after years of fence busting in the American League the big fellow, will return to his jumping off place but with the Braves of the National League. He was an idol with the Red Sox when in Beantown before. Everybody is guessing how the Babe will make out away from *?ie Yankees and serving as assistant manager, reserve outfielder, pinch hitter and second vice president. Maybe they are paying him off on titles. Any way, if the presence of Ruth in Boston wall rekindle fan interest all will be well. The club is overloaded with drbts. It’s a chance for the Babe to act as savior again. He Is credited with bringing crowds back to the parks after the baseball world was shocked by the White Sox scandals of 1919 It not so long ago that dog racing promoters were on the point of taking over Braves Meld, leaving the ball club homeless. This move w is frustrated after the entire National League took part in grasping for a solution to keep Boston, a charter member, in the circuit. In the event the Braves prosper with Ruth on hand, he may be crowned with another achievement—that of saving baseball from the dogs and gamblers. aaa 1 .
Lefty Turns Teacher N r O\V that Frank Lefty O'Doul. the affable outfielder, has become manager of his home town team, the San Francisco Seals, he has pulled up a chair to go in for serving in the capacity of schoolmaster. The former big leaguer, recently of the New York Giants, aims to impart to his pupils the trick of hitting big league pitching. Savs Lefty: “You gotta keep looking for the fast ball instead of the swerve, and bear down and keep books on the pitchers delivery.” Lefty is a veteran of 10 years in the majors and his opinion is important. And he was a better than fair blaster of the horsehide. O'Doul remarked the other day: “I got to the point where I was pretty sure what was coming, a speed ball or a curve. I formed the opinion that a fast ball revolves backward and a curve or screw ball the opposite.” Frank called attention to the fact that pitc’ ers hold a conference before anew series begins and discuss the strong and weak points of opposing hitters. “In the very first git me, therefore,” says Lefty, “you learn what you are going to get if you are weak on certain deliveries. I got so I could tell from the first two ot three balls pitched to me what I was due for. Then I went m for deep study of the mound art hMd endeavored to wait for that fast ball that' I knew I could hit. Os course, I was fooled at times, many times. But in the long run I believe I got my share of base hits and benfited by making a constant study of opposing hurlers.” mum Lure of the Horses THE horse race betting craze. I like the petty baseball pool ticket racket, takes the money out of the pockets of the small fry—the persons who can not afford to gamble. If you don't think that the hoss gambling mania nowsweeping the count:y doesn’t hurt the persons of small income, here’s a little evidence: Walter O’Hara is the chief of the Narragansett. Rhode Island, race track, which is one of the finest and most prosperous, (to the promoters, including O'Hara> in the country; yet O'Hara will tell -ou that the $2 windows checked in the most customers at his track last year. * * * Small Bets Rule OHARA estimates that between $500,000,000 and $600,000,000 was bet on horse races in the United States In 1934. The last day of the 1934 season at Narragansett drew 48.000 paid admissions. During that same summer meeting $40,000,000 went through the mutuel machines. The $40,000,000 bet at the track was only a small portion of the money wagered on the same races in the bookmaker “stores” throughout the country. O'Hara is reported to have made the following comment during a race horse fanning bee in Florida recently: "I made a careful check and found that 76 per cent of all bets at Narragansett went through the $2 windows. That means that the $2 players bet $30,000,000 of the $40.000.000 total. And I believe that proportion was pretty well followed throughout the country. “In the old days a Lucky Baldwin. Rilev Grannon or a Pittsburgh Phil Smith would bet SIOO,OOO or $200,000 on a single race. There are no Grannons or Pittsburgh Phils or Lucky Baldwins left today. But the total volume of betting on horses is greater than ever in history.” mm u The Babe Ruth diet: He cut'out bread and butter and then drank more beer than usual. Maybe he's on that balanced diet—two pretzels and two beers. m m w No sports writers in the world argue more among themselves than those writing basketball. No, no, no! Yes. yes. yes! mum It isn’t true that our state legislator will introduce a bill “calling for a law"—to apply the saliva test to high school basketball players before entering the arena. m m m Red Killefer. manager of the Indians. thinks California is "tops.” Equipoise and Twenty Grand don’t agree with him. Anyway Killefer is an old residenter of Paw Paw. Mich , where it gets so cold your nostrils stick together. mum B:ng Crosby, the crooner, has entered the hoss race game and has bought two bangtails as a starter in building up a stable. When the Blue of the Night Meets the Gold of the Dawn will sound sour after Bing’s hosses begin munching costly oats. I Surrender. Dear.

Boss McKechnie Serves Warning on the Babe
By United Press ST. PETERSBURG, Fla., Feb. 27. —“Unless Babe Ruth wears a uniform he wouldn’t be worth a nickel to any club,” Bill McKechnie, manager of the Boston Braves, said today. “No club can stand two managers,” McKechnie said. “I intend to remain at the helm, and any time I think that Ruth or any one else can do a better job at managing the Braves, I’m ready to resign.” McKechnie believes that Ruth will become an important asset to the Braves and that he probably will be “a valuable lieutenant,” but he made it plain that Ruth’s value will consist mostly in his ability as a player.

Favorites Have Big Night in Armory Mat Scuffles Ray Steele Humbles Big Boy Davis in Three Heats; Grobmier Scores Again With Local Fans. Virtue triumphed last night in all three matches of the Hercules A. C. wrestling card at the Armory, with Rav Steele, 218-pound matman from Glendale, Cal., defeating Karl (.Big Boy) Davis, 235, Columbus, 0., in the main event.
The first thing Davis did when he entered the ring was to test the post in the corner through which he was hurled two weeks ago. Then he leaped out at the bell and hammered Steele flat with flying elbows and fists in one minute, 10 seconds. Steele was more wary when he came back for the second fall and matched slam for slam with the Ohio husky, finally winning in 30 minutes. The third and deciding fall went to Steele in nine minutes after more body slams culminating in an arm lock and head scissors. Grobmier Uses Scissors Fred Grobmier, 205, Harlan, la., who is becoming more a “people’s choice” in every appearance here, took the opening bout of the card from George Menser, 230, Akron, O. Menser substituted for the rough and tumble Jack Nesbitt, but no one missed the latter. Grobmier needed 19 minutes to win with his favorite hold, the figure four scissors. He had Menser desperately jumping out of the ring every time he maneuvered himself into a position for the scissors, but finally made one stick. It took Menser several minutes to recover after the lowan’s knife-like legs were untwisted from the Ohio grunter’s abdomen. Marvin Wins Approval Even the victory of Tom Marvin, 212, Oklahoma, over Lou Plummer, 235, Baltimore, met with popular approval. Plummer, invariably the target of the fans’ abuse, no matter whom he wrestles, apparently had Marvin in a bad way, but the Oklahoma Indian clamped on his chinlock hold and Plummer had to gasp “uncle” after 12 minutes. A capacity house watched the matches.
