WHY BABE RUTH
IS PAID ALL
THAT COIN
Magnates Worry and Fret as
Binnbo's Absence at Gate
Is Felt.

Eight American League magnates
are becoming deeply interested in
Babe Ruth's condition. Jake Rup'
pert, who owns the Yankees, is
receiving hourly bulletins on the
Babe, who is in q New York hos
pital.
And there are seven others who
are burning the wires inquiring,
How soon will Ruth be able to
play?"
For without the Babe the ropes
which hold the fans on the field
back against the bleachers will not
be Of much service. This is ex
planned by M. w. Corum, in the
New York Times, as follows:
Manager Miller Huggins, who Is
having q terrible time trying tc
find somebody to fill the yawnine
vacancy created in right field by
Ruth's absence, shifted back tc
Benny Paschal.
"At that, Hug is not having as
much difficulty as Colonel Rupert
in filling the yawning vacancies OF
the stadium with the Babe.
THE renowned invalid of st. Vim
cents seems to be the only one who
knows the combination to the turn
stiles. In his absence they are very
stiff and sluggish.
''There were not more than-but
come to think of it, the size OF this
crowd might just as well remain
mystery.
There was no hurrying out by
the crowd before the game wa
over to avoid the rush. He stayeC
to the finish"
If baseball fans will quit thil
early on the Yankees without thu
Babe, what is going to happen ir
the American League circuit wher
Ruth stores the spiked shoes in the
| vault as souvenirs of his youthful
days? 1t is something serious FOL
the owners of the big baseball
stadiums.
It is doubtful whether baseball
will produce another attraction tc
pack 'em in like Babe Ruth.

RICH 7 HANDLERS
LOOK BETTER
TH|SYEAR
SouthpaWs Fail to Fulfill Ex-'
pectations in American
League

Signs in the American League at
this early date point clearly to
the fact that the nidwinter hunt
for left handlers was wasted en-
ergy. Southpaws are not burning
trail to the pennant. The good
old reliable right handlers appear
to hold as great a sway as ever
over batters in the Johnson cir
cult. Most Of the favorite right
handlers are coming through in con-
sistent form and southpaws have
yet to flash any brilliancy.
Bush, Jones, old Jack Quinn,
Walter Johnson, Faber. OF the
White Sox, Collins and Daus Of the
Tigers, Uhle of the Indians and
Rommel and Gray Of the Athletics
are showing fine work on the
mound.
Howard Ehmke's ailing arm has
kept him from toiling with as
great effect as last season.
There are no new wonders per-
forming so far this season; the
only twirler in sight who is headed
Gray Of the Athletics, who gave as
fine an exhibition Of old-fashioned
curve pitching for the Athletics
against IHS dHhS LIlctC OOSCl CA .
have seen in years.
Gray has started three times this
year and the tall Texan has de-"
livered in convincing fashion.
Gray's ability to steer clear of
trouble, even when he was hit,
has brought signs of smile on
the lean jaws of Connie Mack. In
eight Of the nine innings against
the Yankees Gray was in trouble,
but he was cool and bore down
when the situation was tense.
Twice the Yanks opened the in
ming with two-baggers, but each
time the Athletics new ace blanked
them.
The side arm motion Of Gray
will cause no little worry to op-
posing batters this year. Mack has
gotten together a hard hitting
team and a fast fielding one. II
the club keeps up in those de-
partments Ira Thomas, coach Of
the club, says there need be no
worrying about the right hand
pitchers.
Rommel is certainly pitching in
old time form and Gray seems to
be destined for the heights in his
chosen profession. Harriss. who
has been arriving for several sea-
sons, also appears to be ripe.

nice salted hardhead?
We mention the hardhead because
he is firIn.fIeshed and q good
keeper. Trout, rock and spot are
Of the soft-fleshed variety and
poor specimens for sailing.
The process of sailing is very
simple; scale your fish, then cut
him down the belly and remove all
entrails. We are now progressing
nicely. Cut off the head and slit
through the body and remove the
back bone. The fish is now ready
to pack. A water-tight keg and
some table salt is the only outlay
required. Now In regard to the
packing, first a layer Of fish and
cover with salt, repeat until you
have the keg about seven-eighths
full. Let this stand for about a
week and pour off the brine. The
last act is to head your keg and
you have a luxury for the coming

Jacks right hand. He sat down
suddenly, his nose twice its usual
size, and the claret streaming
down his face. Dempsey, with
his tongue in his cheek, lifted
Kearns up, telling him all the
time how very sorry he was and
that he didn't mean to hit 80
hard.
Kearns disappeared from the
camp that night, grabbed a rat
tier for New York, grabbed an
other for Philadelphia, then grab
bed a taxicab and rushed to a
nose specialist in Philadelphia.
For quite fed days Kearns
was in seclusion, allowing the bat
tered smeller to get back into
shape after being remodeled by
the Quaker City expert.
Only a few of the very select
ever heard the story. The writer
has promised faithfully not to tell
the name Of the story teller now.
Kearns is still as beautiful AS
ever today. He will probably
giggle if he sees this and the writer
is positive that Dempsey will
laugh right out loud. It's a good
story, even if it is a secret.
Isn't it?

When Dempsey was up at Sara
toga training for the Firpo fight,
Kearns came to him one day and
told him that he wasn't boxing
just the right way to beat Firpo.
Putting on a pair of gloves the
dapper Kearns took Jack on the
side in private and told him that
he would show him the way he
made his mistakes.
It seems at the time Dempsey
was a trifle sore at his manager
and, though good natured and
friendly enough, thought that 6
smack or two on the kisser would
not hurt Kearns very much but
would make him feel whole lot
better. So, the story goes, Kearrs
and Dempsey boxed.

few tricks, ran his smeller against

Tex Sitting Pretty

TEX RICHARD is laughing
himself sick these days. Last
winter five or six dreamy
promoters announced that they
were going to give Texas an
awful battle when the summer
came around. New arenas were
to be built here and there; Demp-
sey and Wills were signed up by
at least three Of them; millionaire
hackers were behind them; and so
forth and so forth. So far, there
is not one real rival of Rickard in
sight, and here is summer right
in our lap. The great Henderson
Bowl in Long Island City is a
bust, and not even one spoonful
of dirt has been turned for the
other arenas. AS far as big
matches go, Rickard can laugh
again. Tunney and Greb is not a
roit. Wills and Weinert with
Greb and Walker on another card
is no million-dollar gate. So do
you wonder that he laughs?

ner finally brought to boat. Three
hours of nerve racking anxiety was
experienced by the anglers in which
period the fish was brought to
within an oars length Of capture
no less than fifty times.
The victor of the conflict, F. W.
BARLEY, 1341 Clifton street north
west. was a total wreck at the
finish of the battle, in fact the
strain was so great upon his nerv.
Gus system that he delayed return
| ing to the city until the following
day, fearing to trust himself at
the wheel of his auto. His hands
looked as though he had been
handling the sharp edge Of a
carving knife. They were cut or
burned deep below the surface OF
the skin from the handling OF the
| line.
The outfit that BARLEY used in
pIaying the striper was one OF
those double e-hanked, green colored
hand affairs, measuring 169 feet.
Not very sportsmanlike at the first
glance. but I doubt very much If
the victor would have been able to
handle the giantess in any other
manner, for. he was obliged to
horse the fish every minute OF
the struggle, never giving an incn
Of slack line.
The surprise of the whole thing
| was the smaIlness of the hook
upon which the fish was taken.
One would think that a fish OF
such huge proportions would
tear loose from an ordinary hook,
but such was not the case In this
| instance. The monster was
handled on a No. 10 Cincinnati
bass hook which had imbedded
itself in the thick gristle OF the
upper lip.
The striper weighed an even
thirty-nine pounds and fifteen
ounces, including the roe, which
when removed registered seven and
| three-quarter pounds. The head
was preserved and is now IN the
process of curing.
After every big catch comes a
backfire and especially IL the fish
! is Of unusual proportions. It was
no sooner reported that the forty
FOUNDER had been taken when
rurnors started to fly that the fish
was of the netted variety. The
news reached BARLEY and tmne-
diately he got busy with a prop
osition to give 500 to any char
| liable institution, if his catch was
taken otherwise than by hook and
| line.
witnesses to the taking of the
| big fish were Edward Henshaw, OF
| Ogdensburg, n. Y, guest OF the
Washington angler; Frank Robert
son and Robert Robertson, both
of Mt. Ida, Va.
Noah Hazard in a letter to
