 Babe Ruth heightened his grip on the bat yesterday and shook lip the state of Georgia with torrid four base clout in the second inning of a game between the Tanks and Brook lyn Dodgers at Birmingham. Eight thousand expectant southern fans rode on the wings of the smash to supreme heights of enthusiasm as the home run king unloaded the crowded bases.

With the time for squad training at hand, 1t seems likely that Manager Bancroft will send Eddie Phillips, first baseman, 10 Worcester for experience while Fred Schiller of St. Louis is also due for seasoning out
 The entire Red Sox squad, "the best conditioned l ever had" says Manager Lee Fohl, is coming back to Boston. They left their training camp In New Orleans last night. Two games will be played in Mobile, an- other in Nashville and four days will be spent in Louisville on the way home. They will arrive in Boston on April and two days later will begin the city series with the Braves.

CLEAN LIVING IS
 ADVICE OF COACH
E. C. Blood, Former Passaic
 Mentor, Speaks Here

More than a hundred members of Y. NJ. C. A. athletic teams and in- vited guests attended the enjoyable annual dinner given last evening by the physical department of the as- sociation in the dining hall of the association building, The guest Of the evening was F. C. Blood. former coach of the Passaic high school team which ra up r. string of l59 victories before being twice defeat- cd this season by the Hackensack. N. J., team. Among the other guests were the surviving members of Bert Loomis' world champion team of years ago which ran up a string of 63 victories before being defeated by the Brooklyn Central team of which Blood then was a member. The win- ners in the various athletic groups at the Y. M. c. A. were given their medals last night as part O. the pro- gram.
 In his talk last night former Coach Blood came out strongly for clean sports and above all for clean living by the boys and men who take part in sports. His theory IS 10 develop a team that will play. not to win but will play not to be defeated. Speaking of basketball, the former coach said that he always paid little attention to defensive
 work. A strong offense is the best
 defense, he declared, and asserted
 that well drilled team can score
 from the floor and victory will go te
 the team making the fewest errors
 in playing the perfect game. "Le' your opponent score, if he gets tho
 opportunity and you are unable tt
 stop him without fouling him--bn show more speed than he and score twice to his once.'
 The former coach asserted tha when a team gets so that 1t forget' the cardinal principals of sports , manship, or begins to get a swellet head the only anti-dote is defeat
 With a losing team, the antidote il , victory. Each serves as a stimulus ) for better play. Only when a play CT has done his very best and know ; that he has given his all in an ef
 fort to win is he entitled to be call
 head the only antidate Is defeat defeat without stigma, the speake
 said.
 Mir. Blood referred to the prcsen
 Passaic team and intimated tha lack of morale had caused tn
 team's slump. He declared that tn spirit of comm ercialism has pervad
 ed the team and as a result the boy
 had lost the ideals of sportsmanshi
 which formerly prompted them an
 as result they have gone down | defeat
