LAS ALL OFF 'f $ Frequently Luck Helps Development of Baseball Cham, Yankees Wouldrtt Cut Loose From Armful of Kale for Home-Run King Unless They Were at Peace '" IVith Ban Johnson Ut pionship Club, as in Case of Athletics Big Expenditures Fail for Yanks and Cleveland i- t f V k- . K fcv '.'r- f'V, a Dy nOUEUT V. MAXWELL Sports Editor Evening Tublle filter Ccryr'.ohi, 1910, by the Public Ledcer Company TT NOW looks as if there would'be a strong finish in the Hot Stove League. After a rather hectic, to say uothins o turbulent off-season, where baseball magnates insisted on telling each other some personal, intimate character observations and engaging in verbal battle-rojals at every opportunity, the New York Yankees stepped out in front, smashed all records and unloaded a whole armload of kale for Babe Ruth, the modest slugger of the Boston Bed Soi. Somo $125,000 vns spent in making the purchase, all of which wa3 grafefully accepted by Harry Trazee, ho plays the part of DaUd Harum when not directing the affairs of his ball club. This sale proves conclusively that the Yankees will play ball this year, and fie Colonels meaning Houston and Buppert are doing other, things besides trying to get Ban Johnson's animal. No ball club will let loose of $125,000 if there is a chance of remaining idle all season because of a scrap with the president of the league. It ain't done these days, and that bundle of coin Could be distributed elsewhere. Therefore, It Is safe to grow optimistic oter the future and look forward to au early settlement of the row, which was won several months ago by the Johnson supporters by the score of 5 to 3. However, there's many a slip 'twixt the hip and the lip, as they say in these modern times. Babe Ruth says he loves Boston so much and has made so many friends up there that he absolutely refuses to play in any other town unless he gets a cut of the purchase money. Babe must be ternbly serious about this, because he threatens to hop a rattler and emulate the Harvard foot- iball team m a dash across the continent. Just why Ruth is making the trip is not known, but the famous fence-buster has his own original ideas of doinc (business. He might attempt to get revenge on Harry Frazee by refusing to rjeport, but what good will it do him? The Babe needs the money and the Yankees will be glad to hand him a nice, Eweet, healthy, income-tax paying poniract. no woman z: According to reports today, Ruth has agreed to play with the Yankees, mt nothine has been said about signing a contract. Perhaps it is assumed fc&at the Boston contract, which has two years to run, was taken over by the pew owners. Then there is another side to be considered. Frazee yesterday handed out statement which was like a brick massage on the head. Harry said Ruth was a big, swell-headed bum, or words to that effect, and the Red Sox will be better off without him. He intimated that Ruth was all for himself, disorgan ized the team, was glad to get rid of him and recommended him like a home child. This is bound to make a hit with Ruth when he finds out what it's fill about, and the slugger is likely to declare war en his boss and that dear old ''Bawston. Frazee never leaves anything undone. When he is through with a : ffuy he's THROUGH. There can't be any comeback. THEREFORE, Babe proiaily will be anxious and willing to sign a new contract with his bosses for an increased salary and provo to Trazee that he made a big mistake in letting him go. El i Harry should worry with that S125.000 in his kick. Yes, he should WORRY. Ruth a Good Buy, Says Mack BUT to get right down to the dope, is any guy, whether he plays baseball or stars in the movies, worth all of that dough? Remember, this isn't a salary or anything like that. It merely is money spent for the privilege of paying out a big salary. It's doubtful if any country would cough up that rrfuch coin if waivers were asked on President Wilcon. Ruth is a slugging ball player. When he hits the ball he knocks it n mile, luid last year hung up a new world's record with twenty-nine home runs. He is abig gate attraction and always gets a hand from the mob. The mob loves a slugger in baseball the same as in the prize ring. The Babe, however, is likely to have a bad year or might become inflicted with an enlargement of the ego, as was hinted by Harry Frazee. He might flop terribly when he realizes how much money was spent for him and the big salary he is drawing and be comes acquainted with his own importance. We hope nothing like that hap pens but you never can tell. There is one thing absolutely certain, however, and that is the Yankees liave the biggest drawing card on Manhattan island and will give the Giants a close race for popularity among the natives. Ruth has it on everybody in McGraw's stable at present, and by the time he is with the club a mon'h he - wll be considered a bigger man than Christy Mathewson. He is bound to be a big financial help to the Yank owners and his trusty bat will wiu many ball games. But just the same, we can't see where he is worth $125,000. Connie Mack thinks the deal is a good one and both clubs will benefit, "Ruth is a great ball player and is bound 'to improve," he said. "He is the greatest slugger the game ever has seen, a natural hitter and near the end of the season I noticed he was batting more scientifically. He did not try to knock the ball out of the lot every time he stepped up, but seemed to be sat isfied if he poled out a single. In other words, he was not looking for those Jong hits and did a little work for the team. "I am glad to see New York get him, because the Yankees are in need of a high-class outfielder who can hit. It will strengthen the club consider ably and in addition give the American League a good drawing card in Gotham. He is worth every cent paid for him. "In regard to the Red Sox, I don't think that club will be weakened any. Barrow has u pretty fair bunch of players and they are about of equal ability. No one man now stands head and shoulders over the others and everybody will come in for his share of credit. I believe the Boston team will be a great im provement over that of last jear." V OLD-TIMERS when they look at the figures connected tcith this recent sale probably are icondering how they get away with that stuff in these modern times. They remember the big sensation of J8S9 when Mile Kelly teas sold to Boston by Chicago for the unheard-of v sum of jlu.vuu. That s only piuer money now. Liked Nickname of ''Tarzan' RUTH is quite a character in baseball. He always was known as a dan gerous hitter, but never startled the world until in the 1017 season, when he hit .325 in fifty-two games. He walloped only two home runs, however, which proved his slugging still was in its infancy. The next year, however, be. soaked eleven circuit swats and last season connected with twenty-nine. It was in 101S that Ruth was nicknamed "Tarzan." The big boy was proud of that name, imagining it was something like Samson or Hercules or come uEbgr strong-armed gent. However, when some friend tipped him off that he was: bearing the nickname of a character in fiction who emulated the ape,, Ruth was lery much peeved and ordered all of the players to lay off the Tarzan stuff. Last spring when the club was training at Tampa, Huth was walking through the park with Scott, the shortstop. On each side of the walk were high royal palm trees, whose trunks are very slippery. Scott stopped, looked one over carefully and said to Ruth : "Pretty hard to climb those trees, isn't it?" Babe agreed with him, but that afternoon at practice he grabbed Scott around the neck and yelled : "Was there anything personal in that remark you made about the high trees?" Scott broke away and as he was making his escape shouted: "Didn't Tnean a thing, Babe, but I wish you would quit your monkeying!" THAT caused another marathon and Ruth chased the little shortstop all oier the town. After that the boys never mentioned the name r of Tarzan in his presence. That word meant fight. How Babe Forgot to Retire as a Pitcher NEWSPAPER men always found Ruth good for a story and occasionally he would help them along with suggestions. The only trouble, however, was that the slugger used to forget the plot of bis interview and kick over the X dope the following day. 1 ' ' - About four years ago Babe was playing in the outfield against Detroit. , AHe was doing good work out there and was much pleased with his hitting. After the game a baseball writer saw him and said: "Babe, I'm up against it for a story tomorrow. Do you know anything ilat would be interesting?" 1 Ruth thought a moment and replied slowly 'Jfe "No, I don't know anything, only I am not going to pitch any more." -"int going to pitch any mora.

The New York Yanks have been expending vast galleons full 0f bull!., for the last twelve or fifteen years. " At one time or another they have bagged such talent as Jack ChfesV. Jess Tonne-ill, Willie Keeler, Jack Powell, Wid Conroy, Hal Chase Jh Vaughn, Russ Ford, Frank Baker, Roger Peckinpaugh, Ernie Shore, Dnft Lewis, Bob Shawkey, Ray Caldwell and ten or fifteen others who ! rated high.

Their owners are and have been willing to spend any amount of tuia to secure the flag-winning products. ' But the Yanks nave yet to win their first pennant, THE same thing has happened to Cleveland. Big expenditures ani brilliant oall players so far haven't been sufficient to win, A Few Reasons BUT luck is always hooked to a few reasons, either the owners or the managers. There are times when an owner, such as William F. Baker, of the Phffliei is largely responsible when he fires snch a manager as Pat Moran. One reason is there are extremely few managers who have the full equip ment to win knowledge of he game, ability to handle men and the gtntm knack of successful leadership. A NOTHER reason is that fine oall players, who are willing to fight i and hustle all the way, are not as thick as daisies in a summer field, Xot quite.

Since the holidays all of the teams have been preparing earnestly in the last few days for the beginning of the titular series. While a number of scholastic basketball critics have been picking Wet Philly to repeat for the championMp, such a prediction just now is rather rash. Fast Games Expected All of the schools have a number of their stars back. In the absence of regulars from last year's first team, the various coaches are filling in with men from the second quintets. And the best prediction is that some rattling good basketball games are going to be put on before the season's champion is crowned. It will be remembered that West Philadelphia High defeated Central High for the 1010 championship in a post-feason game, after South Philadel phia High had been deposed, when it was learned that an ineligible player Basketball Results of School Games Yesterday Sn-Hlihmore n!sh. fill West Catholic.

But rules is rules, as they say, and it was no more than right for the supervisory committee to throw out Southern's tainted ictories. All of which will make the teams more careful this year.

The first game ot the Catholic League was played last Saturday, and it re sulted in a victory for Catholic High oi er St. Joseph. La Salle's basketballers were given hard workouts during the holidays under the direction of Coaches Trank Mahoney and Tom Dougherty. From a large crowd of candidates the team will be picked this week. Men who probably will be in the line up are White and Burroughs, guards: Taylor and Bowen, forwards, and Brennan, center.

This club which, so far as the sta tistics show, was the only country club in the army, will gather, now that the war is over, to celebrate its first an nual reunion with a banquet at the Kit- j tenhouse Hotel. Its membership, which was originally composed of 200 "shave tails," armv for fceeond lieutenants, is expected to be fu'ly represented, as most of the said members are Philadelphians. There will be speeches and things, it is feared. The clubhouse and grounds at Camp SJeade were long since abandoned. None of the members know what has become of the former home of the club, because all of them have 'given Camp Meade a wide berth since that time. "B-27" The name of the clubhouse used to be "B-27." The fact that it housed 200 members who slept there and ate there, sometimes, need not necessarily be taken as a criterion of the size of the club house, which was not so large, as the members were all properly tiered and ticketed. There was a large grill on the first floor, the locker house and showers being in another building. The most popular sport was indoor golf. This was made to differ slightly from the forili usually enjoyed on out door links, as the little pill used was square, and had black dots as con trasted to the red or blue dote generally seen ou other golf halls. On one face there would be six dots, on another four and so on. When a golfer was in the hole, he was ruled out of the game. The greens were arranged in tiers in front of the various players. Some of the players did not use greens. Army blankets made excellent fair ways for this fine indoor polf, which is sometimes .called "Ethiopian," or ".African." Instead of cing "Fore." the plajers shouted "seven" when mak ing a shot. Some would breath hard on. Phoebe!" "Sing fo' yo' I and eiclaim. "Come Others would whisper daddy, and so on. The backswine and a cood follow through was just as essential in play- ju u biiut uere us in ouiuopr gun No Fees There was no membership fee to belong to this club, but, curiously enough, none of the members were vol unteers In fact, discussions at the nineteenth hole, were mainly taken up with methods and rchemes of the members for resigning from the club. Finally the club went on the skids when a banquet was held to commem orate the peculiar aloofness of the club members from participation in the war. A general was invited who gathered that the Camp Meade Country Club was really a country club, so he dispersed the members to Trance and places. But a club like that couldn't be stymied, or dormie, or down. It will stage its come-back Saturday night. Jersey Now Favors Ten Rounds Trenton, N.
