NEW ORLEANS, La. March IS
With the Eighty Babe Ruth and
Bob Meusel doomed to spend the
first six weeks of the season in
idleness, all Is not well in the
Yankee training camp. Manager
Miller Higgins realizes he faces
a big handicap at the jump, but
he's toiling diligently to meet the
emergency and at the same time
hoping luck will be with him until
the day his two naughty boys can
come home and aid in the assault
on another championship melon.
Down here one hears little op-
timistic chatter from the league
title holders. Undoubtedly the
team to man thinks the flag is
as good as clinched, but the sus-
pension of Ruth and Meusel has
acted as somewhat of check on
loose talk. Probably it is as well
that the Lands decision had such
an effect. Without it the Yanks
might have suffered an aggravated
attack of overconfidence and the
result would have been a miser-
able failure. AS matters now stand
they know the first six weeks of

Penn's intercollegiate basketball

the Princeton Tigers humbled the
Red and Blue passers in the final
league battle here tonight, "a to "a
The wonderful passing and ac-
curate foul shooting of Arthur
Loeb, a former Atlantic City High
School boy. proved too much for
Penn and the feeble efforts of Capt
Bill Grave from the fifteen-foot
mark also paved the way for the
Penn defeat.
Princeton. by virtue of this vic
tory. tied McNichols' players for the
lead in the league race. each team
having won eight out of their ten
games played. A series to decide
the supremacy among the North
ern colleges may be started late
next week, for three games must
be played before the champion
ship will be awarded to either
team. One game will be played at
Penn, one at Princeton and one on
a neutral court unless either team
should annex the first two battles.
This series, though. is still in
doubt.

Jockey Hunt. who suffered a

RACING ACE SHOWS
UP FOREIGN TALENT
AT Los ANGELES
Establishes New Track
Record of 110.S Miles
Per Hour in Classic.

Foreign speedsters were greatly
surprised and 'chagrined as q result
OF the victory snatched by Tommy
Milton. American racing ace, who
established the astonishing new
track record Of HOS miles per hour
in his Oldneld shod car on the Los
Angeles Speedway March s, and
they're still talking about the
marvellous performance of the
American track wizard.
The Los Angeles event. original
ly scheduled for February %. had
to be postponed because Of rains.
On February 26 the racers were in
the thick OF the contest, with NIL
ton leading at ninety-four laps,
when rain again interfered, and
the race was stopped because OF
fear that the slippery track might
cause serious II not fatal accident.
March was set for the new date.
and Milton set the pace again.
Many knowing ones" frankly ex-
pressed their doubt Of Tommy max
ing a favorable showing. and this
was especially true OF the foreign
entrants. who felt sure Of their
ability to put Milton into the class
Of has beens."
Barney oldfeld. known as Master
Driver of the World" was very
much in evidence at Los Angeles.
and this dean OF American speed
stsrs, now at the head of his own
TIRE company, said that his many
years OF experience on the speed
ways had shown him II was the
tires that meant the difference be-
tween winning and losing in these
great auto racing events. AL
though the tires Tommy won on
were from the regular Oldheld

their advantages In many ways.

The Los Angeles race, according
to Oldneld. aroused no end of de-

contestants to enter the great

of the most gruelling contests the

in hospital this afternoon, two
hours after the big racing car which
he was driving in the Central Caro-
lima auto races turned over on him
In the first lap of the race. The car
was going nearly sixty miles all

track. 1t went into the air, turning
completely over.
Frank Brown, mechanicIan. was
hurled clear of the wreckage and
not seriously hurt. The car righted
itself after the someEsau!t. rolled
over on Vile. then flung him Ikea
bundle of straw against the wire
fence. He never regained conscious

children in Columbia. The receipts
from the races, about $1,4o0, will be

SUSPENSION OF RUTH CURBS

the season are going to be tough
and they'll fight.
That the Huggins crew has an
excellent chance to repeat is ad-
mitted. On paper the New York
ers appear to have pitching
strength that could win a flag even
If Ruth remained away throughout
the season. However, one can never
tell about pitchers. but If any man
ager were given a choice to select
a STAFF from any one club in the
league, he. no doubt would put in
bid for Carl Mays. Sam Jones. Joe
Bush, Bob Shawkey. and Waite
Hoyt. The above five won an ag-
Eregate of 103 games in the league
last season.
With his infield of Pipp, Ward.
Scott. and Baker a certainty even
before training started, Huggins
naturally has devoted most of his
time to the outfield problem. 1t
appears likely that pending the
return of Ruth and Meusel, Chick
Fewster will cavort in left, Elmer
Miller in center. and Wallie Schang
in right. Higgins prefers to keep
Schang for backstop duty, but now
that Roth has drawn an indefinite
suspension, he has no choice.
There are several kids snooping
around for the nearly vacant out
post and the best of the lot ap-
pears to be Hinkey Haines, former
Penn State grid star. who was
farmed out to Hartford, Conn, last
year. Camp Skinner Is another
seeker of outfield honors.
Another slugger is o. d. Tucker
from Cedartown, Ga. However, he
is a long way from home when he
gets in the outfield. He may come
up to specifications in a couple
more years.

The Fickle Putter.

Inc EhcAhc EuttcEs
1t might be hard to say what the
most important golf club is in your
bag.
But it is safe to say that the most
hckle club is, your putter, and
don't care whether you are a star
or a duffer.
Ordinarily, 1 am supposed to be
a good putter. no world beater on
the green's, but generally pretty
steady.
But 1 have found out on this last
trip that on certain days l could
putt as badly as a duffer trying to
break 100 for the first time. The
putter is the one club that must
be watched closer than any other.
for it can play more tricks on a
golfer than anything else.
l found that out in tournament
this winter, when 1 took three
puts on eleven greens in one eight
een-hole round. / finished with a
score of 81. where with steady put
ting l could have had a 73. Which
is quite a difference. l missed more
strokes with my putter in that one
round than l had missed with any
other club in a weeks play. Why
is it that golfer, playing around 72
or 73 steadily, who can correct
faults with other clubs, suddenly
finds himself helpless on the
greens?
One answer is that most of the
mistakes made with the other clubs
are physical mistakes-but with
putting it is mostly mental trouble
The First Sign.
I'll explain what l mean little
further. When a golfer gets phys
ically weary or grows stale you
might think that the main effect
would be upon his long game.
As a rule it isn't. When one is
stale the first effect generally
shows in putting.
Your touch and your confidence
leave togethtr, and then you are
pretty close to being helpless. In
this state of mind your nerves be-
gin to jump and get away from
your control
1t doesn't take any physical ef-
fort to hit a ball three feet on a
fairly fast green. But it takes fine
mental and nerve control to hit il
straight into the cup three feet
away.
