Baseball Stars Say Golf Helps Their
 Batting

Chicago. April Golf helps the baseball batting averages. according to leading hItters. and Babe Ruth Of the New York Americans thinks he may beeable this season to equal or even surpass his homc-run record of 5s by reason of the alertness of vision eained on the golf links
 Carl Mays also expects to raise his batting average from .34S. having cached that ratio from ago since he took to the links between diamond contests, Other high bat average men agree that while the golf stroke is different from that with the baseball bat, especially in that the baseball is moving rapidly in an uncertain line and the golf swing Is at a stationary ball less than two inches in diameter, with small club head on an elon- gated shaft, it trains the eye 10 a greater keeness to meet the wiles of the expert pitcher.
 Isn't Duffer
 Lack of practice appears to be the main reason why Ruth and other bat ,ters do not play par golf; but they do not play a "duffer" game of golf
 Although he has played golf regu- larly only two years, Babe Ruth has driven 250 yards many times and once. he declared yesterday. after making a preseason homer-run at San Antonio, he sent golf ball S25 yards. which is better than average of such players as Francis Ouimet and Chick Evans Tn fact the record is harely more than 400 yards On the diamond. Ruth said, his longest hit was 507 feet or 60 yards.
 Carl Mays the star pitcher of the New York Americans, who has been playing golf only little more than a %ear. said he made mldiron shot of 2e3 yards last winter on his home course, at Springfield, Mo

 TyGobh premier batter of America. for several seasons, is ather cratic at golf, although he hits a fairly dong ball on the links and is fairly accu- rate at approaching,
