rode in on cold wave. There is
always danger. especially for the rook-
les. in a sudden change of temperature.
Coming out of the cold North, summer
weather is apt to tempt athletes to
overdue everything at the start. A year
ago Frank O'Doul ruined himself with
half dozen early throws. And it must
be remembered that the talent now
present runs very strongly to the
rookie brand, outside pitchers, OF
course.
A lot of old standbys who expected
to await the party that came in last
night from New York and interlying
cities had not reported late this even
ing. Duffy Lewis, Bobbie Meusel.
TRUCK" Hannah, Roger Peckinpaugh,
Wally Pipp, Muddy" Reul, Bill Piercy
and Sam Wick are still missing from
the home fireside.
Turns Hands to Golf
The cold weather gave the golfing
enthusiasts of the club an excellent
excuse to take fall out of Colonel
Bogle. Some ten or dozen players
and camp followers, headed by Babe
Ruth, made sortie against the Coun-
try Club. Ruth, Shawkey and Del Pratt
made up threesome, with Mogridge
and Ihormahlen acting as caddies and
Ernie Shore scorer. Shawkey, who is
q veteran golfer, did all the collecting.
ing.
1t was rather an expensive day for
the temperamental but bubbling Babe
Ruth. This bird can hit ball a mile
when he does hit--but he is still some
what of a novice. He simply strewed
the links with broken clubs and lost
balls.
Old Bill Hanna, twin dean, with Sam
Crane, of New Yorks sport writer's and
golting authority par excellent, pre-
Gicted brilliant future for Ruth in
the golf world. Colonel Bill, of Louis
vile, says Babe lacks only in expert
ence of the Quimet standard. He has
few of the vices and all of the graces
of real natural born 24-karat golfer
and is possessed of the real requisites
the natural swing and the follow
through. He needs a bit of polishing,
that's all.
Ruth broke two clubs. Once he
fubbed his driver and ball and the club
head catapulted more than hundred
yards into pond. Both were lost. On
another occasion Paley, the smoker
hound, got off beautiful drive. Ruth,
who was $50 yards ahead at the cali

the air and the ball hit it, smashing
the stick. This second accident de-

prived the Babe of his wood, matter
to which he attributes the days re-
verses.
Rockies Work Out
Some fifteen of the Yankees went to
South Side Park in the afternoon for
warm up. The field, which was in
undated two weeks ago, when the river
overfowed it's banks, is still trihe
heavy in spots, but in fairly good con-
dition, nevertheless. A make shift in
field threw the ball around for half an
hour or more. Dan Murphy, the To-
ledo catcher, appeared at first base;
Frank Gleish, Saginaw outfelder, was
at second; Zip Rice, the Philadelphia
amateur, played short, and Catcher
Fred Hoffman was at third base
Ping Bodie did most of the pitching
to the impromptu batters, while Small
wood, De Vitals, Geser and Bob Nc
Graw did most of the outfeld shagging.
Later on Jack Quinn threw few to
the hitters.
In the absence of Babe Ruth Carl
Mays easily carried off the hitting
honors' of the day. He landed half a
dozen that would have done credit to
the bat of anybody.
The Brooklyn players put in a couple
of hours at Barrs Field, but because
of the cool weather worked in sweaters
and confined their efforts mostly to
easy throwing and running

Foreign Riders Arrive
For Second Bike Grind

The foreign bicycle riders who will
compete in the six-day race at the
Garden next week arrived yesterday on
the steamship Carmana. They went
Immediately to Newark, where they
will do their training. In the group
were the Belgians, Buysse and Speis-
sens, who became popular by their con-
tinual spurts in the last race here;
Deruyter and Godiver, the French pair,
who are considered as good as the
great Egg; Maurice Brocco, the Italian,
and Marcel Dupuy.
The Belgians appear to be the most
confident OF all the riders. They are in
excellent condition after three months
of racing abroad and declare they will
certainly lap the field this trip.
The grinders will work out on the
Newark track until Thursday, when
they will come to New York and finish h
training on the Garden saucer. A
fine program of sprint and match races
has been arranged for Saturday night.
