RUTH HEADED FOR
HOME RUN RECORD
"Babe" Rapidly Approaching
"Buck" Freeman's Major
League Mark Of 25.

Although John Freeman, a player Of
tho Washington Club OF 1893. banged
out rs home runs In that season. which
constitutes the major league record for
round trip cloutr. the Deiief Is enter
tained that some of the heavy thumpers
OF preceding years equalled or exceiled
Bucks performance. Unfortunately the
statistical branch OF baseball, from the
organization Of the National League In
1879 up to 1870. was restricted. few OF
the record books contain any reference
to extra base hits. Therefore 1t practi-
cally Ia impossible to determine II Free
mans 2b homers Is the best record OF
the majors
Players In the minor leagues have sew
eral times eclipsed Freaman's perform
ance. Roth of Evansville OF the Three
Eyed League made 90 home runs In the
season of 1901. Cactus cravath, while
playing with Minneapolis In 1911, made
20 homers. Our own Pins Bodls while
pastiming for San Francisco registered
30 home runs in 1910. Many other
minor leaguars have made more than
rs home runs In a season. but the record
that Babe Ruth now is shooting at Is
that made by Freeman.
More to Tie Record.
That Ruth Is more than likely to set
new oticial record for circuit smashss
Is generally conceded, for he crashed out
his twenty-third home run In yesterdays
game with Detroit and needs only two
more in order to tie the Freeman record
As Ruth's hitting powers In baseball are
on par with those Of Dempsey In
pugilism. there IL small doubt that the
giant Bostonlan will knock out the IS
mark set by Freeman.
Ruth's record OF homers to date Is as
follows:
