What is the matter with Babe
Ruth?
They ask it in the ball parks, on
the streets and in the homes.
Seems funny that a walloping swat
ter, a dandy outfielder and u corking
good pitcher. who started the sea-
son by hammering out home runs
almost every trip to the plate, should
be batting 100 in his first 10 games.
Yet it Is a fact. Babe hasn't been
doing much. He's losing games when
Ed Barrow sends him to the slab. A
mad arm keeps him from making long
throws from the outfield. And at the
plate the opposing pitchers have his
number.
1t looks bad for the Red Sox when

Babe is not In shape. In fact. they
dropped nearly every game after he
began to slip fast.
The homerun king, the seventh
wonder of hitters. the star pitcher
and all-round handy man for Boston
is at present in the dub class.
Some say temperament did it-that
he couldn't get along with Barrow.
Well, Babe admits he and Bar
row have quarreled, but he says that
isn't the reason.
The real reason-and take Babes
word for it's a peculiar injury to
his throwing arm, sustained in a game
in which Babe played left and had ac-
CASTOR to make a long throw to the
plate. T. lh4k49
