Babe Ruth has made a lot Of
trouble in the American League with
his home run sWats.
] have seen many an argument be-
tween pitcher and catcher. and
pitcher and manager. after Babe has
come through with a homer in Il
pinch.
However, it seems that Babes abil-
ity to hit them over the fence has
already made trouble in the National
League.
According to the wires. Pitcher
Haines of the st. Louis Cardinals,
one Of the leading pitchers in the Ma
tional. League. is the latest member
of the in bad" society.
1t seems that Haines asked Hickey
how to pitch TO Ruth. Hickey told
him. Then, according to the story
Haines pitched just the opposite to
his managers Instructions. A home
run followed.
An argument ensued. That even
ing Haincs was on the way home
Hickey is reported TO have said: We

StLOuiS Browns U7ncOUer
Two PhenOn1S In TRAINING

MOBILE, Ala, Mar. S0.-Two new
baseball phenoms have been entered
by the st. Louis Browns. There may
be more, for one can never tell Just
how far young rookie is going to
jump.
In the 1922 edition of Lee FohPs
pennant entry prepping at Mobile,
Ala, there are Is pitchers, two CATCH
ers, two infielders and one outfielder
making their debut into major league
society.
The two who already have attract
ed attention are Infielder Eugene
Robertson and Outfielder Cedric
burst
Robertson originally is graduate
Of the corner lots of ST Louis. He
made the enormous leap from mu-
niclpal baseball to the Browns in the
spring of 1919
He tarried the entire season under
Jimmy Burke for his experience
course and then had two seasons of
minor league ball.
burst is having his second season in
professional ball. Born in Austin
Tex, Aug. 23, 1899. he played in the
home town semi-pro circuit as a kid
and then blossomed forth with Beau
mont in the Texas league last season.
There they are-Robertson and
burst, the selections for the phenom
class with the Browns.
Robertson is shortstopper by
trade. He is shortstopper along
the lines of Everett Scott of the
Yankees and Charley Hollocher of
the Cubs.
A left handed hitter, he has a pow
erful swat at the ball for a chap
who stands but feet s inches,
weighing 1855 pounds.
With Gerber settled for the Browns
shortstop position, Manager Fohl is
grooming Robertson for the general
utility infield position. by practicing
him at second base and third base.
His general knowledge of baseball
is what impresses Fohl. He waits
out the pitcher to the limit. He is a
skillful bunter.
In fielding Robby gets a running
start on the ball the minute it starts
on its course off the bat He whips
the ball across the diamond with an
underhand throw and plays the slow
rollers in back of the pitcher with
ease. In plain words, Robertson is

PITCH Err BURLElGH GRIMES
COMPARES HORNS5Y
ANn P0ltc1

Burleigh Grimes of the Brooklyn
club is one of the leading pitchers in
the National League.
Rogers eHornsby OF the St Louis
Cardinals led tho National League in
hitting last season.
While Eddie Roush is seventh in
the list of hitters, he really ranked
next to Hornsby, since the players in
between the two in the records played
in only a few games.
Hornsby. and Roush are great HIT
ters. Hornsby is a right handler
while Roush hits from the left side
Of the plate.
Grimes is a pitcher who makes a
careful study Of the batters. That is
one of the big reasons for his con-
tinued success. His opinion there
fore is worthy Of attention.
The Brooklyn pitching ace says
Roush is harder to pitch to than
Hornsby Here is his size-up OF the
National Leagues two best batsmen:
Il can tell almost exactly what
Hornsbv intends to do from his posi-
tion at the plate. but Roush never.
Once Hornsby takes his position
at the plate he never changes il
II he crowds the plate YOU know he
is trying to hit TO right field. If he
stands off you know he wants to pun
one TO left field.
Hornsby always takes a healthy
swing. II is a rarity for him to bunt
on you.
Knowing these things / pitch to
Hornsby accordingly. OF course. ]

CHICAGO Hears OF PHoENIx

CHICAGO, March 60 American
Indians have taken up golf, many of
the aboriginal caddies on the courses
in Arizona having procured clubs and
by initiating the white man, become
fairly proficient in the game.
At the new Ingleside Club near
Phoenix. Arizona, young bucks from
nine different tribes have gained con-
siderable proficiency and with gifts
of clubs from winter visitors practice
the various strokes tenaciously.
With the natural swing begotten of
loose joints the sinewy muscles of.
the keen eyed redskin drives far and
straight and approach with the accu-
racy for which their tommy hawking
forefathcrs were justly feared by the
white pioneers.
All of which makes it possible that

"On the other hand. Roush always
takes the same position when he
steps into the batters box but he
keeps you constantly bewildered by
out guessing you.

He either suddenly chokes up on his

Wnlte VIII Meet Leonard
Sam Hall sporting editor on the

Leonard will meet at an early date
despite Whites defeat at the hands
OF Johnny Dundee:
Hall writes:
They are completing a mammoth

cording to White. he and Leonard

Being outscored by Dundee in New
York really does not mean whole
lot, except that White would rather
win.s That's natural But what we
men is that Dundee is q ring freak
and could fight guy like White a
week without really hurting Charlie.

Dundee will bother anybody with his

that means real fight.
"Charlie White viii tell you today

He weighed about 1861 pounds the
night that our Chicago man got the
decision over him in Boston. He was

night in New York. But that makes
no difference. Dundee does not fight
a fellow like White. If he does it's
a sure kickoff for him., He just boxes
him.

He boxed that way in New York last

understands the same thing. Charlie
White and Benny Leonard make the
best lightweight match possible to-

Ben won't give Lew a chance right
now
You see Leonard actually hates
both White and Tender. But White
has never taken forfeit off Leonard
as Tender did. and with the money
in sight LEONARD will give the Chi
cagoan the preference in a match.
And Benny knows that any time he
starts with Charlie he is in danger.
