RutAsand the Lively BaiI.

"Just ohAsquestion." writes a camp
follower of sport. rs Ruth.s home
run record of last year and the pres
ent season due to lively ball or to
his own ability?'
Well take up 1919 first. The man
ufacturers insist that the ball used
last season was of ordinary make.
about;the same type Of ball that had
been In vogue for many years.
Full proof of Ruth's unusual tall
ent might be found In these compar-
ative figures from the 1919 records:
Ty Cobb. home run, 1.
Bob Veach, home runs, 3.
joe jackson. home runs. z.
Ed Roush. home runs. ).
Hornsby. home runs, s.
above All Five.
These five stars. including the
leading hitters In the American and
National leagues, established TWEEN
ty-two home runs last year.
Ruth ran up his string to twenty
nine. Briefly. he. struck OF seven
more home runs than the star quin-
tet. who all took 4 cut at precisely
the same ball.
making his twenty nine home runs,
including such hard hitters as Stuffy
McInn!s, Amos Strunk, Harry Hoop
er. etc, collected but four.
So Ruth had twenty-five more
home runs than the rest of the club
all facing the same pitcher and
swinging at the same ball in the
same ball park.
Ruth also made more home runs
than-Cactus Cravath and George Sis
Ter put together. which might be
used as further evidence.
The 1870 BaT.
The 1920 ball is made up of bet
ter ammunition. The manufactur-
ers say this Is largely due to the
better wool wrapped around the
cork center.
But there seems to be one pc
culiar feature about a iivelier ball.
whether 1t be a baseball or q golf
ball-and that feature is that 1t Of
fers far more assistance to the
light hitter than to the slugger.
Ted Blackwell, of England. a
mighty hitter in golf, has driven
the old quite" over 800 yards,
about as far as he could drive n
modern ball. But the light hitter
had the deuce of time getting the
quite" to travel $50 yards.
The amazing growth of home
runs this season Is due to brace
of combinations-to the livelier
ball and to the fact that a late
spring left the bulk of pitching
arms- in poor shape.
Any number of first-class pitch
ers have been extremely slow in
reaching expected form, as the
cold. raw, rainy span Of May held
them in check.
The Comparative Test.
All tests are comparative, after
all. Ruth last season had double
the home-run allotment gathered
by any other slugger. ~
This season, when he reached his
fifteenth homer. the next man to
him had only six. So he was still
maintaining his more than double
number. With the start that he
has already-with a livelier bail
and with fourteen additional games
