Ruih's Record of Earned
Runs Besf in American League

Babe Ruth. the crack left-hander OF
the worlds champ on Red SoX. was
the pitching prince OF the American
League. according 10 the Official aver
ages Of the junior major league cir
cult. Ruth easily earned high honors.
as he permitted only 1.75 earned runs
a game. and only two other p tchers
did more actual work. One Of them
Coveleskie. OF Detroit. pitched only a
fraction OF an inning more than Ruth
The great Walter Johnson. Of Wash
ington. as usual was the horse for
work In the American League. He
participated IN 81 innings against
1923 20 for Ruth
Second on the American Leagues
eiiic 'ency list was Eddie C'cotte. the
veteran knuckle ball pitcher Of the
White Sox Though Cicotte partici-
pated in forty-four games. the same
as Ruth. he took part only IN 1877 in
n'ngs Cicotte's low run record
largely was due TO his phenomenal
success against the Yankees whom ne
defeated six times Cicotte permitted
rs earned runs a game.
Walter Johnson was third with n
showing OF 1S9 earned runs per

game While this is a high class per
Torrance. nevertheless it Is the poor
est rating Johnson has had since the
American League adopted the earned
run system. In 1913 Johnson per-
mitted 1.O9 earned runs, I'm 1914 il
was III and 1915. Los.
Harry Coveleskio. Of Detroit, Is
fourth on the list. II is interesting TO
note that the three men who did the
most pitching Ruth. Johnson and
Coveleskit--won three of the first
four Dosito ns
That Nick Cullop's success with the
Yankees was no freak is Indicated
by the fact that he ranks ninth among
the Johnsonian pitchers, with an
earned run average Of 2 05 runs PEI

,ers. though Bob Shawkey is close be
hind. The former Athlete IS eleventh
on the list with 22l earned runs q

MIDDLETOWN Wants TO
see BASKETBALL THIS YEAR

! Special 20 THE EVENING JOURNAL.
] MIDDLETCWN, Del, Dec. II. -
/ Basketball.
That one word has set all OF the
young men in this town. between the
ages OF II and q. In a turmoil of ex-
element II r. on the lips Of ali OF
tho fellows who understand anything
about the game. and Il is becoming
used almost as much now as the word
baseball was used during the sum
mer months. II is now the object Of
the boys to add the word team 10 bas-
ketball and TO organize a fast basket
bali team that can begin playing at
once. and hold its own with any other
team in the State.
IL Is a fact thai this town is alive
with men who have good regulations
as basketball players. and who could
make up a star combination. These
men are eager 10 form a quintet, and
as soon as q suitable room can be OBJ
tanned. practice will begin. The men
have been having slight practice
games outside but the weather is such
at present time that all outside
games must be discontinued. Last
year a room was Outlined in the Town
Hall Building. but this year that is
impossible. At present there does not
seem TO be another room large enough
for q basketball game.
Most of the citizens OF Middletown
are anxious to see 1--WE organized- 1t
Is understood that the Eve will be a
town team, and W II have no connec-
ton whatever with tht Middletown
Athletic Association The Athletic
Association has decided not TO put a
quintet on the floor this season. but
TO hold over until 1917, when n is
thought a winning team can be whip
} ped into shape. As soon as a. was
learned that the A. A. would not rep
resent this town. on tho floor, the
younger set got together, and decided
that a five would be organized. pro
! v'ded a suitable room could be OBJ
tanned. So far the quest for a room
has been unsuccessful. and the con.
templated team may not be put OF
the floor.
Some of the players who have beer
} mentioned for places on the five
, should 4 be organized, are: Foster
} Johnson, star siX-foot centre, OF las

.TO TRY Tennis ON ice
IN GOTHAM this Year

New York ice rink managers are
trying TO popularize tennis on the ice
and have already succeeded in getting
several Gotham stars interested.
The game is played eNactly as the
court game except that the net is a
little higher to allow for the skates.
The lines are marked with black
paint and at doubles the game IS said
to be as fast as when played on the
courts. Singles are said to be diff
cult.

PERSONAL LIBERTY.

A man may not even do with his own body what he pleases. Suppose he tries to kill tito commit suicide. If he fails he will go to Jail. And yet if the United States government should decide to go to war with any other nation it assumes the right, If necessary, to send him to the front to be shot down. He belongs to the state as well as to himself.
 If the state should decide that the saloon Is a menace, and that it dis penses poison, then society has right to say that the saloon must go, no mat ter how it may affect anybody's per sonal liberty. We accept the restric- tion which the state imposes upon us in other relationships. Why not ac- cept it with regard to the saloon, espe- cially since it has been so clearly de- monstrated that the interests of the saloon are always opposed to the in terests of the workingman?-Charles StelZle.

EXPECT BETTER TIMES.

There have been many dire predic- tions regarding the disaster that is to follow the departure of the saloon in wet territory in this state, but gener- ally speaking no delusions are held along this line by the more prominent business men of Idaho." says the Boise News. While they look for tempo rary depression prior to the readjust- ment, they expect afterwards impetus in business conditions and even better times than before the saloon became extinct. The fact that much of Idafo has been dry for years and business conditions in the dry territory have even been better in some instances than in the wet territory, leads many business men to believe that the sa- loon is not so paramount a factor and that with readjustment the lost rev enue from it will not be missed"

STANDPOINT OF BUSINESS.

BOOZE-A VITAL QUESTION. Alcohol as a food Is a joke and rather bad joke at that,
 It guarantees to do these things:
 Make you lose BALANCE
 Make you lose NERVE
 Make you lose EMPLOYMENT
 Make you lose MONEY
 Make you lose FRIENDS
 Make you lose FAMILY
 Make you lose SELF-CONFIDENCE Make you lose COURAGE
 Make you lose HEALTH
 Make you lose LIFE
 THAT'S ALL.
 The above was recently printed on the pay envelopes of an eastern pack ing Company. The industrial concerns which are carrying on a campaign of temperance education among their em. ployees are increasing in number with rapidity most encouraging to pro- hibitionists. "The tendency of big cor porations to encroach upon the per sonal liberties of workers" says a liquor journal, "is one of the most pregnant signs of the times."

PROHIBITION FOR KEEPS.

Below are given some of the req sons why Russia will never repeal it's prohibitory laws, based on statements made by Ernest Gordon, who has re- gently visited the country:
 In the insanity hospital in connec- tion with the northern Russian army there has been only one case of alco- holic insanity in a year. Such hos pitals during the Russo-Japanese war were filled with alcoholic insane.
 In one town money grew so plenti- full that the villagers clubbed together and bought movie. Charging small admission fee they grew so embar- rassed with the riches that they pur- chased brand new fire engine, the village pride"
 The Pirogoff society, the leading medical association of Russia, has heartily indorsed prohibition, declar- ing that "a whole mass of facts allow us to believe that prohibition has de- creased sickness (especially venereal and mentaD, lessened fires, suicides, crime, accidents and increased mate rial and industrial prosperity
 There is a general feeling through out Russia that it is lowing to the temperance movement" that the bad effects of the war are not felt. One peasant writes of the results of prohibition as wonderfully good. Joy everywhere! Quite habitual drunk ards are we'll dressed now and have repaired their houses"
