BABE RUTH AFTER
40 HOME RUNS.
viii Mean Fortune in Vaude-
vile, Movies and Magazines
for Worlds Greatest SIugger

Forty and F~ortunei"
That's Gabe ftuth's ambition for
this year.
Forty home runs and a fortune in
vaudeville, the movies the magazine
ana every other conceivable thing.
When you sit up in the g~randstand
and watch the terrible infant pole out
a hit hat looks as though the ball
were never going to stop. and see him
shuttle round the bases In his queer
cinnamon bear-like fashion, you get
the idea that no ore with such pow
erful muscles could have a CORE
spending brain.
But babe has He thinks rather
deeply. He knows fame and fortune
are passing things. The hats that
are thrown in the air when he does
his spectacular stunt may be thrown
for some one else next year.
And so he has maze up his mind to
get while the getting is good, break
all records into a thousand pieces,
smile happily at the applause he gets
but not take II to too seriously, and
provide for his older days while the
providing Is good.
Babe has a queer. hesitating way of
speaking. You have the impression
that he's afraid he'll make a mistake
but when he Ices say 1t just as when
he does mach the old norsehide, he
does 1t with force. That's Babe all
over.
Yeah" says Babe. IT like to hear
EN- oar. 1 like to see the hats go
in the air and hear the ~hsndclapping
as l come to the dugout blu il doesn't
fool me much. The real interest for
me Is not In the applause, but in the
fight to do the impossible.
"Tve poled a lot of home runs but
/ W. enjoyed n more than the
one I got against Walter Johnson.
Whyf Well. because It's harder to get
n against him than anyone 1 know.
And there are two teams that have
refused to give he homers so far. I
want to get them. That's where the
sport In It II for me. e
And SO 1t is that Babe convinces
you that he's a first class lighting man
But he has the instincts of q
Bluebeard.
You needn't gasp with horror. eth
er. for 1t isn't so terrible after all.
You remember, dom you how the
California B~luebeard Harvey, said
that he always felt happy after he
had killed a wife? Well. that's the
the way Babe Ruin feels after he
has killed the ball-happy N peace
full. and contented and everything.
'TWhen / feel the impact of the ball
against my bat 1 am almost always
ing to eb honor" says he II don't
think / miss once out of ten"
And there's just one thing hat
Babe and that's the fear
that some day some player will get
directly in the way of one Of his hot
ones and will get seriously hurt.
That's why I'm always glad when
they soar skyward." says he.
And he's particularly happy that
has been batting heavy aside
from home runs this year.
'That'u settle the hash of those
boobs who said I wasn't good for n y
thing but home runs" says he.
He's a great boy. Ruth. A great.
big Ioveable. shy boy. And he de-
serves every bit of the laundering
applause that he gets around the en-
tire circuit.

BEACH SEASON
 OPENED TODAY

The numerous attractive shores and beaches along the Sound in the vicinity of Bridgeport will open for the season today. Many of the sum mer residents at the shore have all ready arrived and will have their cot tages in readiness for the crowds who are expected over the holidays.
 The Milford beaches from Oyster river to the Housat onic, including Woodmo ont, Burwell's Beach, Pond Point, Fort Trumbuil Beach, Seaside, Myrtle, Walnut and Laurel Beaches were alive with cottages and conces- sionaires for the past week and there is very evidence that this will be the greatest. year ever had at these beaches.
 Nearly every cottage along this beautiful shore has been taken and the hotels have more bookings than they are able to take care of.
 The high rents in the cities have driven the city dwellers to take cot tages for the summer with the hope that the prices of rents will be lower in the fall.
 At the Fairfield beaches the same conditions prevail and summer cot tages are at a premium. The bathing pavilion opens tomorrow for the sea son under new management.
 Arrangements have been completed for handling a record crowd at Sea side Park and if the weather is fine there will be a general exodus to the shore after the patriotic perform sance in the morning.
 The public bathing pavilion at Sea side Park, accommodating 4,0O0 peo- pie, will open today in charge of Cap tain Max Baum, according to an nouncement by Supt. P. V. Gahan of the Board of Recreation yesterday. Commencing Monday afternoon with an evening session on that date, and continuing during the summer on a three night a week schedule the sec ton of the building devoted to danc- ing will also be thrown open. Ma lone's orchestra will furnish music.
 It was also stated that the summer camp for boys at Steeplechase Island, near the old racetrack, with a capac- ity of 75, will be opened during the last week in June and will continue until September. The camp this year will be in charge of F. s. Mathewson, n, who for two years was athletic direc- tor at Camp Devens, Mass.
