RUTH ENTITLED
To HIGH HON0RS
Deserves First Place in
Selection Of Foremost
Player, Is Claim.
BY Frederick G. Laeb.

NEW YORK, Aug. 11.-There is
considerable interest being felt on
the outcome of the vote which will
decide the most valuable American
League payer OF the year. Scme of
Ruth's boosters are backing the
claims of the Babe for the honor. and
1t is no secret that the mighty Bam-
bino covets the title and will feel dis
appointed If the vote gives first place
to anoher player.
1t will be recalled that the American
League decided to award a prize each
year TO the player voted the most
valuable in the circuit by a committee
of newspaper Judges, which the name
of the player will be permanently
chiselled on a baseball shaft in Wash
ington. The idea is to keep a baseball
shaft of fame. somewhat similar to
the Hall of Fame in New York.
The idea is a splendid one and has
been popularity received by the fans.
Unfortunately. the National League
refused to adopt 1t when the Ameri-
can League did two years ago. There
is too much of this petty jealousy
between the two majors. The National
League probably voted 1t down be-
cause the idea emanated from the
American.
Last year George sisler won first
honors. with Ruth not getting a sin.

ting as many home runs as in 1920
and 1921. his ITO bases on balls tells
the story why he doesn't get hi,

can't hit homers when he doesn't get
a good ball to hit. That is obvious.

However. too much has been made

season than ever before. as he is

lee Of crags facing the east. Here In
the shade Of afternoon, she and Edith
would often lounge under low
branched tree. Seldom they talked
much, for it was afternoon and dreamy
with the strange spell Of this noun
tain fastness. There was smoky haze
in the valleys, fieecy cloud resting
over the peaks, sailing eagle In the

and a soft wind laden with incense OF

One afternoon, however, Edith ap-
peared prone to talk seriously.
"See here. Majesty Hammond. do you

Madeline was silent.

you have work to do. That is much the

Work, Of course, has much to do

Madeline. "No one can be happy who
