By BABE RUTH.

BOSTON, June 29.-Here's a
funny thing. Just little while
ago my telephone rang and when
/ answered it there was a kids
voice, came over the wire.
"Say, Babe" it said, can't you
come down here this evening and
talke to some of US sandlot kids.
All the guys want to see you.
We're having a little party and
you know this is the greatest sand
lot town in, the country, Babe!
The same day / had letter from
q boys club in Cleveland telling
me something about their amateur
baseball there. The closing SEN
tence in that Cleveland letter was
sCleveland is the greatest sandlot
baseball city in the country. Ask
the big league managers.
And a few days before came a
letter from st. Louis asking me to
get behind a national campaign for
more Fairgrounds. That letter
started i've Just read your ar
ticIe about the lack of ball grounds

Now that's funny one. isn't
Il? Three letters, from three diff
ferent cities and each one claim

that there is real interest in
amateur baseball after all. And
that all this talk about baseball

the bunk. There's Cleveland and

what can be done though. In each
one Of them they've got amateur
baseball on systematic basis.
There are three places where the
city dads have realized just how
great thing baseball is for the
kids and have gone down the line
to build 1t up.
They've got municipal leagues,
and twilight leagues and park
leagues, and a dozen different or
Limitations. But they're all work
ing together under one head-an5 all
of them with just one idea in mind.
That's to keep the kids playing
baseball.
I've had a lot Of letters lately
asking me how | thought amateur
baseball should be handled in a
city. That's a tough problem.
You can't just turn the kids
loose to play when and how and
where they please. They have to
be looked after.
Here's my suggestion. Get in
touch with the mayors of any of
the three cities I've mentioned.
Find out their system See how
they do-and then pattern after
them. You can't go far wrong.
remember when I was playing with |
the Red Sox that even then the
amateur baseball around Boston
was almost as we'll organized as
big league ball. And it's better
today with whole army OF
players in the Twilight leagues.
Cleveland and ST. Louis are doing
just about as we'll In all these
cities, as in New York, certain
newspapers have taken the thing
up too-and are working hand in
hand with the city to make amateur
baseball hum. That's the stuff that
counts. All the kids need is en-
enlargement. They'll do the rest.

RUTH LAW IS ONE EXAMPLE
Slender Miss Made Spectacular Non Stop Flight from Chicago to New York Back In Days When
 Flying Was Dangerous.

CHICAGO, H., Mar. 16.-Men can not "hog" all the honors when it comes to doing something that requires real nerve and courage. Take the case of Ruth Law, for instance.
 It was away back in 1916 that this brave young woman made her specta- cular nonstop airplane flight from Chicago to New York City. It was risky and dangerous and adventurous business flying in those days.
 Everybody thought it was extraor- dinary that the flight of 8S4 miles should be accomplished by slender women not yet 2S years old. She made the flight in a 100-horsepower two-year old biplane of an almost obsolete make.
 Then there is Miss Hilda Hechle, who has gained much prominence for her painting of life in the Alps. She lives high in the mountains and only comes down to a village for supply of food and drink.
 One of the famous women who faced wild adventure and unknown perils in a somewhat different way was Mrs. Rosita Forbes, who encountered ey- erything from the wild tribes of Tar tary to the wild sheiks of the Arabian desert.
 Peggy Thayer of Philadelphia went to Africa last year in search of thrills and refused to let even a severe at tack of typhoid turn her back. She found other thrills, too,, when she took to the Wilds.
 Mrs. Hamilton Rice, formerly Mrs. George B. Widener, one of Philadel- phia's most prominent society women, has forsaken her palatia, home so she can accompany her explorer-husband

 Some of the passengers returning on the Olympic the other day had skirts reaching only to their knees. Mrs. Bertram Parker, European fash ion editor of a New York publica- tion, passenger, was asked if these were fair samples of the Parisian designers latest
 What? Those skirts?" she asked. Why, they're way down to the knees. In Paris they are above the knees"
