How many tennis fans pay serious
attention to footwork? Yet in no
other sport, not even boxing, is it
more important. Frank Anderson,
national indoor champion of 1921,
rates it at 60 per cent of the game.
Watch the games stars-men like
Tilden, Johnston and other ranking
players" he advises.
For those who lack the opportuni-
ty to do this he suggests the follow
ing simple rules:
In serving, stand a-tiptoe, left foot
turned in and weight on left toe. en-
abling you to follow through and go
to the net with your service without
waste motion. To receive your op-
ponent's service, stand with legs

world series with the Giants. 1t has
been strengthened by Ruths failure
to show to advantage at the bat since
he returned to the game.
In the world series between the
Giants and the Yankees, Manager
McGraw of the Giants worked on the
theory that Ruth was weak on low
ball pitching. He accordingly in
structed his pitchers to use that style
against Babe.
In the first place, all great hitters
will tell you that the low ball prop
erly pitched, is the most difficult of
all balls to hit with any degree of
certainty.
Nehf of the Giants, who is a south
paw, used low curve at the knees,
that broke out and downward as it
approached the plate. Nehf, who had
excellent control, kept this low curve
on the outside.
CONTROL is VITAL
In pitching to batter's supposed
weakness. control is most necessary
A curve ball broken over the heart of
the plate is not nearly so effective
as a curve that just skins the out
side corner
When Douglas and Barnes. who are
right handlers, pitched to Ruth they
kept their curve bali low and inside
| IL either chose to use a fast ball, il
was always low and outside.
| don't believe Ruth had a hall
dozen balls pitched to him in the
1921 series that were any distance
above the knee.
His showing at the bat in the
series was disappointment. He

WHAT AILS BABE?
Evans Soys He Needs Practice

struck out eight times. He seemed
to be at the mercy of a low ball.
This year since Ruth returned to
the game, American League pitchers
are using the tactics so successfully
employed by the Giants pitchers.
Ruth is being fed on a diet of low
ball pitching.
Possibly if Ruth has a weakness,
Arizona republican., 1922-06-09

it is the low ball However, to my
way of thinking, he is no weaker on
a low ball than any number of the
great hitters of the game.
/ feel safe in saying that half of
the home runs hit by Ruth last year,
in establishing his mark of SO home
runs were on low balls. He simply
golfed them over the fence.
LACK OF PRACTICE
Ruth at present is simply suffer-
ing from lack of practice. His eyes
are dim. A batter must face sreal
pitching in competition to get re-
suits. Hitting against practice
pitching means little or nothing.
Babe is trying too hard. He is
forcing. his swing, with the result
that it is lacking in accuracy.
He is conscious of the fact that
his crown as home-run king is in

Women Buy ont stocks.

TO bring about a run on certain brands
of cigarettes. Tobacco dealers in the
uptown sections spent most Of the morn
ing selling cigarettes to women. APP
parently the women smokers construed
the measure to prevent tobacconists
from selling to them. They rushed off
to the shops and purchased large stores
buying the cheaper brands when the
better ones were all sold.
A gray haired woman rushed into
store in upper Broadway about .
o'clock. She never before had bought
anything but newspapers in the store,
but she walked out with dozen

ing that they probably would last her a

the demand and the result was that
many brands were sold out by noon.
