point of contention. between Commits

employees which, 1t is charged, has
led them to indulge in petty practices
designed TO DTlHS SOtlIuSlOH To Gne

to the point where break is imminent,
according to the reports. Other ele-
ments contributing to the same end
are said to be the recent appearance
at Ellis Island of some "s1 year in

a coterie of about fifty Washington
lawyers, some OF them former en-

il was fifty-nine for 1852 games, an
average of something like one ior
every 2.59 games. The difference
is not great enough to condemn "A
man as bust" off hand and with
out further ado.
What was really missing and
what made Ruth a pronounced fail
ure in the world series was his in
ability to come through with Ordi-
nary base hits. Swinging from his
shoetops at all times, it was either
a case of a home run or strike
out. Unfortunately. it was mostly
the latter in the big series. In
fact, he got only two hits in five
games, and neither of them bore
even a faint resemblance to a
home run.
Had he driven out a single or a
double in an occasional pinch his
failure to hit them out of the park
might have been remarked upon,
but the effect would have been
negligible.
WAS REAL MENACE.
The sense of the whole PROPOSE
ton Is that too much emphasis
was laid upon Ruth's ability TO hit
them beyond the fences. Unques-
tionably his home runs drove in
many tallies and won quite a few
ball games, but Ruth's real value
10 the team lay in his menace to
the opposing defense and i'm the
fact that he was a 1850 hitter. This
latter meant that he was cutting
out a few singles and doubles of no
doubtful value.
Last season his average fell off
considerably-much more so, in fact,
than his comparative dearth of
homers. for which he was so round
ly reviled. His fielding, likewise,
suffered a bad rally, as the fellow
said.
These defections cost the Yam.

difference involved in the matter OF

sinks for the third and last
time into temporary oblivion
down on the farm, it might not
be at all remiss to state that our
dear, old fat friend was made the
victim of fallacy in the general
condemnation of his hitting last
season. This much to give the
gentleman his due.
1t was openly charged and gen
orally accepted as fact that Ruth
was bust" in home run hitting
the belief being based on the fact
that he hit only thirty-five homers
against fifty-nine in 1921. The fact
Of the matter is that Ruth enjoyed
almost as much success in hitting
home runs last season as he ever
did before.
Where he was a distinct bust"
on the ball field, his lack of condi-
ton. his failure to field UP TO his
1921 form and his lack Of consist

So far as home runs were con-
cerned he nearly succeeded in keep
