Xobody got excitpd when his name was mentioned, but passed on to (jtlier topics. About a year ago. however, he started to clout the ball. The regular left fielder was laid up for repairs and Itabe was the only man to take his place. He got off to a good start and horned into the limelight when he busted four home runs on four suocsshe days. This tied the record made by Bill Bradley, and the nervous fans began to sit up anil take noticp. It was predicted on all sides, that he would smash the modern home-run record, but near the end of the season he had a slump This year he will break the American League record, and it's a thousand to one shot. 'Way back in 1!102 Socks Seybold hammered out s.iteen homers, and the mark never has been bettered. This year, with the i-eason onlj half over, Ituth has registered fifteen circuit clouts, and still is going strong. It jvos his homer in Cleveland last week thai caused I.ee Kohl to resign as manager Of the Indians. There were three on base and a relief pitcher laid one in the groove for the slugger. The result was that the ball was knocked out of the lot, Cleveland lost the game and Fohl lost his job. " Thej say Ruth has a weakness. I'itcheis hae told us that thej can keep him from hitting safely bj pitching close, so he hits with the handle of his bat Perhaps this is true, but few hurlers are getting away with it. They always try to i-neak one over, and when thej do Itabe just naturally knocks it into the adjoining neighborhood. Scott I'erry tried it on Decoration Day, and Ruth not only knocked the ball over the light held fence, but over the jouses in Twentieth street as well. It was one of the longest hits ever seen here. So we must get reaih to hang the clown on Babe's alnbastei hi on i it a short time ami give him the glad hand every time he appears.

Johnny Kilbane has fought his way into the henrts of the boxing fans and stands out among all of the others in his profession. Johnny is a featherweight champion, but never has dodged a match. Every bppouent has been given a chance at the title with the exception of Joey Kox and he will be accommodated tonight Kilbane is the only modern chumpion (who was not afraid to take a thance. I When featherweights refused to have anything to do with him he stepped ' Wt'of his class and boxed lightweights He almost won the title from Freddy jWelsh, and that caused him to box Itennv Leonard here two years ago. Benny on by a knockout and Kilbane was the first man to come out with ptaisp for the victor. To this day he has not made an excuse, which shows how game .be is and can take a beating like a gentleman. Johnny says he is going to retire within a year, but before he lays aside the gloves every featherweight who has any sort of a reputation will be given a chance to try for the title. He will not snenk into retirement, but when he goes it will be after all of his logical opponents have been taken care of. The champion is thirty years old, has a wife and family, supports his 'r blind father, but has made enough money to keen them comfortable for the rest E" 'jt heir lives. Johnny also was the first boxer to offer his services to train the soldiers for the great war. He did not appear in a professional engage ment until the armistice had been signed, and he was rewarded with a first lieutenant's commission in the regulnr army. fllM boxina game icould be bettei off if ice had a feir moie chain pious like Johnny Kilbane.

If it were the some club that started out the rocky trail forty-five years ago, we should bay that the psychology thereof would "be slightly tinged with pessimism. But with a new manager, who has known more than his share of success, and a new inflow of athletes who haven't bothered nbout the unkempt past, we can't see that it makes any vast diflerencc. The harrowing effect would bo on the fans who have followed the fortunes or misfortunes of the club for two or three decades. The tendency on their part would be to wear their collars cut low in order to be prepared for the worst. For they have had their silver dreams smeared too often before. nC'r the fans are not the ones who make the base hits and the runs.

Jeffries vs. Dempsey JUST after the Dempsey-'Willard potpourri this" letter came In: "To help settle an argument, who was the greatest 6ghter Dempsey as he was against Willard or Jeffries ns he was against Fitzslmmons in their first fightV" Mentally matching a man from 1010 against one from 1800 calls for more than normal imagination. , Jeffries at that date was twenty-five pounds heavier than Dempsey was against Willard, almost as fast and much more rugged. Witli that ancient crouch he had n better defense than Dempsey seems to have, but not as much leverage in his punches. Jeffries was not dropping them in one or two rounds.
