18TH HOME RUN
BY RUTH HELPS
YANKEES TO WIN

BOSTON, June 24.-The Yankees
had good day all around yesterday.
Babe Ruth got his twenty-fifth homer
OF the season, Rip Collins pitched an
excellent game, allowing his opponents
only five hits for the nine innings, and
the visitors won the game by a score
OF to 1, managing by this victory to
split the series OF six games with the
Red Sox.
Ruth has made his twenty five
home runs in ten playing weeks and
as the season has fifteen more weeks
to go his chances of setting Il new
record are good.
Herb Thormahlen, a former Yank
hurler, was on the mound for the Sox,
and his erstwhile teammates hit the
slender southpaw all over the lot for
an even dozen salties. Wally Schang
making a double and two singles anu
Bob Meusel getting three singles.
Babes homer came in the fifth inning
with Roger Peckinpaugh on first.
With two out in that inning Roger
singled and Ruth let the first ball go
by, missed the second, but slammed
at the next, a curve over the centre
of the plate.
A white streak was seen moving
rapidly through the air and then sud
denly shoot downward. The ball found
resting place In the right field bleach
ers, Peck scoring ahead OF the home
run monarch. The ball landed two.
thirds of the way up the bleachers and
Is believed to be one of the longest
drives ever made into those stands. The
fans eheered wildly as Ruth logged
his appreciation by smiling and doff-
ing his cap In his Ruthan way after
he touched the home plate.
The Yankees started the game with
a rush, picked up two runs in the first
inning and held their advantage until
the end. With one out, Peck singled
and Ruth walked in the opening ses--
the plate. Meusel also hit safely and
home came the Babe. Baker went to
third on the hit, but was doubled up
at the plate when he attempted to
score after Menosky caught Pipp's fly.
With the foundation for a victory es-
tablished. the Yankees scored another
run in the fourth. Baker singled and
likewise Meusel. Plpp sacrificed. Ward
was hit by a pitched ball, filling the
Collins. Baker scored and Meusel went
TO third. Meusel and Ward attempted a
double steal but 1t failed.
The Red Sox scored their lone run In
this inning. ]. Collins doubled to centre
field. Scott hit to the New York Collins
and the Boston Collins was caught be-
tween second and third and finally
tagged out. Scott, however, managed to
reach second. He went to third on a
wild pitch and crossed the plate while
Schang as throwing out Walters.

ARMAMENT CONFERENCE Opens Ceremonial
SESSION T0D|SCUSS WORLD WAR PROBLEMS

Of ornaments which will be fair and
just to all.
The United States, 1t may be said
on the highest authority, has no
thought Of proposing complete dis.
armament although there are indica-
lions that 1t will lead of with pro-
posals for reduction which may be
startling.
The first few days Of the sessions
are bound to be taken up with Off
cial formailties and organization
work, including the appointment of
committees and the divisions of the
conference into sections and sub-sec-
tons which will work on the various
questions and report to the full con-
ference for action.
Today's opening proceedings were
entirely Of ceremonial nature. When
the conference has disposed of it's
first business Of organization such as
the formal election of Secretary
Hughes as chairman, and the selec-
ton OF another American as secretary,
il will be faced with deciding to
what extent its deliberations win be
open to the world through the news
papers. There is a great pressure Of
public opinion for open sessions; there
is also a great deal Of conviction
among those responsible for the con-
fsnSnce that kDme Of its deliberations
neeeesafily must be confidential.
The question Of ornaments win
finally be settled by the conference
only after receiving the reports Of ex-
perts. These will come only after
long work and discussion. But to set
the subject into the hands Of experts
its nrst is necessary to bring II before
the conference.

FEWER AUTO ACCIDENTS
Kansans Drive With More Care Than
in Other Years

k0mS01S DT1VG WIN NlUNC SAC AhoH
in Other Years
Kansans apparently have learned
to operate their automobiles with COM
parative safety.
Figures just received from the led
eral census bureau by Charles H. Ler-
rigo, chief Of the division Of vital sta
tistics of the State Board Of Health,
show that the death rate per 100, 900
population in 1920 resulting from &C.
cidents caused by automobiles and
other motor vehicles, excluding
motorcycles, was 10.4 in the entire
United Staes and 81 in Kansas. In
the total registration are 9,1O6 such
deaths were reported and in Kansas,
1856.
Although the number Of automobile
accident deaths have increased, they
have decreased in proportion to motor
cars in use. In 1915 the rate was
two deaths to each 1000 automobiles
and in 1920 the rate was IL. The
number Of cars increased more than
three fold in the five-year period.

Naval Program Interesting In Light
of Conference


Washington, Nov. 14.-The Ameri-
can naval building program, as it now
stands bears an important relation to
the problem confronting the Arma-
ment conference. 1t is interesting
to review 1t.
About 100, 900 tons in capital ships
will be added to the navy next year
even under reduced appropriations.
Included are three new battleships Of
the Maryland class, 21-knot ships
carrying eight 16-inch, 40 caliber
rifles each and all oil burning, long
cruising radius craft. They are the
Colorado, now 80 per cent finished,
the Washington, 20 per cent, and the
West Virginia, 62 per cent. -Four
light cruisers also will be finished
next year but do not figure important
ly in the question Of naval ar.aa-
ments.
