New York Delighted.

AVG" AVEA OclkuCcus
N ECISION to stage the 1928
Army-Navy football game
in New York is extremely
satisfying to the metropolis, which
will have the new Yankee stadium
in shape then. Thus at least $4,000
spectators will be able to see that
contest between the soldiers and
sailors.
: Philadelphia is correspondingly
downcast at losing this game,
though it is hopeful of landing the
1924 game. The Quakers did their
best this past season to make the
service folks satisfied. The An
napolis contingent is on record as
fully contented. The Army COM
planned about some gouging by
hotels and by taxicab company.
In all else Philadelphia was per-
feet.
AS a matter of fact, with the
Polo Grounds and the new Yankee
stadium, New York is likely to
see some Of the best fotball teams
in the country next season. West
Point may meet Notre Dame at
the Yankee stadium instead of at
West Point. That will be the
biggest drawing card Of the
season in the metropolis.

Inc 4 ankeeS, taught 3 Dltter,'
bitter lesson last season, should be
more powerful than ever in the
coming campaign. For one thing,
they will have Babe Ruth in ac-
ton from the opening day, and,
unless all signs fail, It will be. a
Babe Ruth of the Iold battering
type, the ponderous' busting Bam-
bino, driving the carefully pre-
served rabbit ball out and over the
barrier into far distant counties.
There's little sense in denying
the fact that the absence Of Ruth
and Meusel affected the Yankees
considerably last spring, just as his
absence handicapped Ruth himself
for the remainder of the season.
Judge Lands was absolutely right
in barring the two players for those
forty days, but it was costly blow
both to the New York club and to
Ruth himself.
Next spring Ruth will be on
hand with the first game. He will
be in perfect physical condition.
Knowing this, the entire team will
play better ball, displaying more
interest in the days toll and
greater confidence against the foe.
It is now believed that the Yam
KEGS will have their hardest opposi-
ton from the Detroit Tigers, the
Chicago White Sox and the St.
Louis Browns. It is also possible
that both Cleveland and Philadel-
phia will show unwonted strength
in the approaching race.
Nevertheless, the Giants will be
favorites in the National League
and the Yankees will carry the ban
ner in the American League.
