and to admire-forty- home runs
IN a season which still has several
weeks to run-surpasses anything that
was ever dreamed of in bat prove
Until he hewed the way, the most
skilled batsmen in the national game
were accounted heroes II they made
twenty home runs in a season. And
then Along Came Ruth" with his
powerful back and shoulders, his bat
heavier than any hitherto welded
in the game-and his batting eye"
which could follow the fastest,
SMALLEST of balls. and in one season
the records came crashing down
In The Evening World to-day be-
gins the story Of Babe" Ruth's base
ball career. told by himself. 1t begins
where his baseball began. in IA Pro-
tectory School in Baltimore, whittier
he had been sent to be cured Of
truancy and to learn a useful trade.
He was then only seven years old, but
at that age his baseball life really
began. He learned his trade in the
! years ne was at St Marys, but he
also learned baseball at every posi-
ton on the nine, and before he was
nineteen he left the school to become
a professional.
This was in 1914. Six years later
the New York Americans bought him
from the Boston Red Sox for the
| highest figure ever paid for base

than his weight In gold.
In those six years Babe" Ruth
had made a record az a pitcher. al
though 1t was his batting as a boy
that had first attracted attention to
him. 1t was not until last year that
he got his batting eye" to work
again In earnest and triumphed over
every pitcher who faced him. Tween

Yanks, he was asked how many he

gone beyond even that astonishing
mark.
In the story OF his baseball life,
which Babe" Ruth has written. the
chronicle OF his success is told in
much detail. He has also disclosed

be called the secret" of his proves
