Sport Notes

NEW YORK. Feb. s.-The Ameri-
can schedule is an unromantic docu-
ment resembling a suburban time
table or the sliding scale of the
Typographical Union. But when
read with expert understanding
this 1922 program of the ball clubs
reveals much more than mere sta
tistics.
that the Yankees will have Babe
Ruth back in the lineup for their
first game on the home lot under
Coogan's Bluff. The Yanks open
the season on tour and their first
home game is a contest with the
Browns, April 20, when Ruth's sus-
pension will expire. On that day.
therefore. with Babe and his fell
low offenders. Bob Meusel and Bill
Piercey. back in the game. the
Yanks may expect a holiday crowd
big enough to pack the entire
park.
OF course il is still possible that
Judge Lands will reinstate Ruth
before the expiration of his ban
ishment.
Much more the schedule confides
to the observant reader. 1t tells
that Connie Mack. the parsiponious
pilot of the hopeless Athletics. has
been given two rich engagements
with the Yanks this season, the
Memorial Day game at the Polo
Grounds and the Fourth of July
game in Philadelphia. 1t is said
that in 1921 the Athletics were en-
riched to the figure of $4,000 by
holiday engagements with the
Yanks. who are always good for a
full house on a holiday.
For the first time since Babe
Ruth began absorbing all the glory
of the Yankees, there has come an
actual wall from a fellow member
of the team. Chick Fewster, the
Yanks' utility outfielder, visiting
the Washington meeting of the
magnates. complained that the club
pays Ruth SO much that the other
players have trouble obtaining the
salary they deserve. Fewster is
the lad who knocked a homer in
last years world series while sub
stituting for Ruth. He has not
signed yet. being dissatisfied with
the price offered.
The malignant epidemic of hold
out complaint which has swept
through the ranks of the athletics
has caused the postponemeht of
their training for one week from
February 16, the original date, to
the 23rd. And. unless some of the
players sign up soon, Connie Mack
may go to Eagle Pass with a bat boy
and a couple bushers for his only
company.
Benny Leonard's weighing in Fri
day for the evening fight with Rocky
Kansas. with the lightweight title
at stake, will be made a matter of
unusual ceremony. The lads will be
dumped on the scales at p. m. re-
quired to weigh las pounds or less.
There have been rumors that these
weighing-in proceedings have been
entirely informal. but Billy Gibson,
Leonard's manager, has invited a
press committee to watch the bar
when Benny gets on. Anyone quail
flying as an expert in the matter
Is invited to inspect the scales. too.
Both fighters seem to be at their
best and the Garden probably will
be sold out, one of the feY- times
this season.
