INSURE RUTH FOR S15O,000
Yankee Owners rake Out Big Policy Which Protects Club Against Injury to Home Run King" /,

New York, Feb. 11.--Babe Ruth, highest priced player in the history Of baseball, is about to set another. new record in finance. Plans are now un- der way for the insuring of this new Yankee star for $50, 00O~ by Col Ja- cob Ruppert and Col. T. l.. Huston. owners of the New York club. The policy under consid era ton makes pro- visions for any accident serious enough to keep the home run kingsout of the daily lineup. As the Yankees owners paid s125,000 for Ruth and then reached terms with him for the scasonS of 19oe.ana 1921, they believe that they should be protected on the big investment and will take out a large policy on the player. 1t has been customary for several years to insure ball clubs as q body, each player being named, but it is seldom that any particular player is singled out for d special policy.

Thempsonyille, Feb. 17.--Barney -Adair of New York won by a shade over Freddy 1elle of Taunton in the main bout of 10 rounds at the Bige- low Hartford athletic club here last night. Both boys loattled hard and fast all the way. Adair forced the lighting most of the time and >Rroved to be a classy ring general. but 1elle fought gainely and took a lot of pun iShment.
 In the last round. with honors near ly even, both tried to put over a sleep punch. Adair showed about the best exhibition seen here this winter. 1eile was at his best in the clinches.
 The eight-round semi-final, the first fray of the night was a draw be tween Terry O'Connor and Young Fortier, both of Hartford. O'Connor led in the early rounds, but Fortier came back strong later on. Only :l fair-sized crowd was on hand, due to the poor transportation service, but the show was a fast one.

It was never sought to develop the Hudson Super Six as the greatest speed and power car in the world.
 1t is true that in speed-in hill l-climbing- in quick (acceleration-no ever matched it. Official records show that. But they are incidental. They were made in tests to prove Hudson endurance.
 Surely these great performance qualities enough to account for Hudson's five years of leadership as the largest selling fine car in the world. Any owner would take pride in 6 that none has equaled in any worthwhile per formancc record.
