was too indecent to mention in the
complaint" Erwin w. Otto of San
born, Mimi, was arraigned in a pre-
liminary hearing before Ray Huges,
United States court commissioner at
Mankato and was bound over to the
federal district court which convenes

alleged to have sent the obscene let
ter to Miss Marie Kepner, at Hol
loway, Mimi, from Sanborn on July
10, 1928. The obscene language re-
ferred to was not mentioned in the
complaint, the words being too Gin
decent" to appear in print.

HERZOGC[ASSE5
RUTH ASlN|OST
VALUABLE
Declares Babe Saved Baseball
When It Was on Rocks
Four. Years Ago,

To the list of those following
.ba asebal who believe. that Ruth ts
the most valuable player in the
game, Buck Herzog added his name
the.other day. The. former infieldsr
OF. the Giants writes now for the
Baltimore Sun, and in a recent artl-
Gle he says:
.'Who is the most valuable and
the greatest player in the game to-
day? Without doubt, it is Babe
Ruth, and / do not say this be
cause / am O fellow Marylander.
"Ruth has made mistakes. like
all Others Herzog continues
Most Of them can be attributed to
his rapid success when establishing
a. home.run record that will stand
for all time, but the game owes
him. a debt that It will never be
able to pay. He saved baseball
when It was on the rocks after the
1919 world series. The fans talked
OF his home runs, and the interest
in his circuit c1outs kept the most
skeptical flowing through the gates.
Buck also thinks that Ruth could
lead the league in hitting. He is
sincere in his ambition to become
the leading hitter in the American
League" he writes, "and II pitched
to like Heilman Of the Tigers would
lead the Junior circuit easily"

Baseball AS Written
By Britisher For
Britishers

LONDON, Sept. 1.-The Lon
don Post of the American Legion
is making a continued effort to
introduce baseball in England.
Some Englishmen attend the
games for light amusement, but
Americans get many laughs out
of reading the reports of the
games in the English News
papers. A typical report from
the Star follows:
PARIS BASEBALL TX. BEATEN.
London Post, American Legion,
beat Paris Post yesterday at
Stamford Bridge before 1000
people. Both sides had scored 2
runs up to the seventh innings,
when London hit up 5 and de-
cided the issue.
Gildersleeve pitched brilliantly,
and did other fine work in the
field for the winners.

BOXING FASTER
THAN IN old,
OLD DAYS
ii ~
Some Argue, However. That
Veterans Fought Longer
and More ViciousIy.

Numerous theories have been ad-
vanced to show that the present
crop of fighters are not as hardy
and tough as the, boxers of the
old days. They fought longer fights
in the age which the ancients refer
to as the halcyon period of the
ring. They not only fought longer
but it is also argued that they
gave and received more physical
punishment. ~
Perhaps they did. Some of the
old fighters went through a Cruel.
ing schooling before they took up
pugilism. Fitzsimmons was a
er maker. Many OF the old fight
ers had been hardened by toll be-
fore they entered the ring.
Labor is something which many
present-day boxers know nothing
about. They start out as boxers al
an early age and do nothing else
Harry Wills seems to be the only
boxer today who works at a regu'
lar job. He works on the docks
The old-timers point out that the
present scheme Of bandaging the
hands is. bad thing for boxers.
Constant punching makes the hands
expand, and this is impossible with
the tight bandages.
There are more broken hands
among present-day boxers than
among the old-timers. The old
timers used to harden the skin on
their hands by soaking them in
brine.
To refute the claims of the old
timers. it is pointed out that box
ing has advanced in every way. II
is more intensive than it used TO be
and the game has more speed than
ever before. There Is little occasion
now for long-drawn-out fights. The
modern fan will not tolerate a
stalling match and dislikes con
tinual clinching.
The tendency of modern training
ID. to fit the boxer for speed rather
than for endurance. L<eRalizing the
game, with decision bouts, has done
away with the limtted-round bouts

has won eleven games SO far out of
eighteen and he has taken his turn
with Luque, Rixey and Donohu4.
It Is doubtful if those three pitchers
could have kept Cincy up.
Last year, Johnny Couch was a
big winner for Cincinnati. especially
early in the season. He finished
the year with sixteen victories and
nine defeats. This year Couch has
been almost useless to the Reds,
and he was recently released to the
Phillies for the waiver price.
Benton has stepped in, and taken
the position which Couch held on
the 1922 staff
And 1t is odd to recall that New
York was the only club in the Ma.
tional League which supported
Cincinnati's right to engage Benton
last winter. At the time it was
evident that it was an unselfish at.
titude on the part Of the New York
club, as 1t was then well realized
that Benton was in a position to
strengthen New York's closest rival
on paper. The leading rival on
paper also has turned out to be the
leading rival on the playing field.
