Babe Ruth is wearing a rubber
shirt at Hot Springs.
He's taking the baths and hiking
miles over the hills TO reduce.
No baseball star ever trained
more conscientiously than Babe
when once he starts out
His goal is 70 sweat OF 80 pounds
OF fat
He may succeed this year. But
that fat is going to come back
next year in more solid quanti-
ties.
Some day he will find that his
waistline won't shrink.
Hisnppetite Is too big. He is too
healthy to ever be skinny.
But give the Home Run King
credit for trying.
Whatever he does he does with
purpose and whole-heartedly.
When ne bats he swings with all
the power Of his powerful body.
When he shoots craps he shoots
10 all.
When he trains. nobody can keep
in sight OF him.
When he starts hitting long ones
this spring. he'll try 20 over
shoot his mark Of "a.
Because ne tries. he Is the biggest
figure in baseball today.
