RUTH GIVES TANKS
 EDGE IN OUTFIELD
Cardinals to Offer Three 300
 Players Against New York

New York, Sept. 2S GPl Babe Ruths huge bulk tips the scales in
 favor of the New York Yankees as the strength of the outfields to play in the world series is weighed St. Louis has no Ruth, the Yankee slug ger with 47 home runs and batting average of 1868 has distanced the best effort of any Cardinal outfeld- CT.
 If Blades can join in the Cardinal outer defense. Manager Hornsby will offer three 800 hitters with South worth and Douthit completing the trio. With the injured Blades prob ably not in the lineup Hafey is ex- pectcd to get the call with Holm next in line. The five St. Louis out ffelders, with Blades included, all though a doubtful starter, have an average of .299.
 Ruth, Combs and Meusel, the reg ular Yankee outfield, with Paschal and Carlyel in reserve, boast an average of .313.
 Ruth dominates the outfeld talent involved in the series. His batting average of .3GS includes 47 home runs and he has scored 139 runs and stolen F bases. Ruth will also enter his seventh world series, Southworth, who will patrol right field for the Cardinals, has had more limited world series experience but has fought through many run of the mine" games. His batting aver- age of .319 enabled him in part to score 97 runs and he has made 1 5 home runs and stolen as many bases.
 Only in center field can the Cardi- nals offer a stronger offense on paper than the Yankees. Douthit has hit .303 to .S01 for Combs. The Cardi- nal scored % runs against 11O for Combs but his 22 stolen bases dwarfed a total of eight for the Yankee. Combs scored an ad- vantage in home runs, eight to three.
 If Hafcy goes to left for St. Louis, New York, with Meusel in the oppo- sition role, will make a greater inn pression on the fact of the seasons returns. Meusel has compiled a batting average of .S1S and scored 69 runs, with 12 of the runs unaided through the medium of circuit He has stolen IS bases Hafcy has a batting average of .270 with 30 runs scored, four home runs, and two stolen bases. He has play ed in only 75 games.
 Blades will bring a good record into the series if he is able to ap- pear actively. He has batted .SO7 with S1 runs scored six stolen bases and eight home runs. Holm, the fifth St. Louis outfielder, batted .2SS, scored IS runs, stolen three bases and did not enter the home run class.
 Paschal and Carlyle are two hard hitting outfielders, subject to call from the bench. Paschal has batting average of .2S5. He has seven home runs and the same num- Der of stolen bases. His runs total 45. Carlylc's batting average of .291 was assembled while he was wearing two uniforms, his early season hit ting being for the benefit of the Bos- ton Red Sox. Carlyle has made two home runs but has not stolen a base He has scored 25 runs.

FIRST HOME GAME
High school Football Team to Meet Norwich Free Academy Saturday Afternoon.

Followers of the New Britain Hieh school football team will have chance to see the team in action for the first time when it takes on the Norwich Free academy at Memorial field Saturday afternoon.
 Fresh from it's victory over the Suffleld Preparatory school last Sat urday, the team is ready to add the second preparatory school to it's list of victims. The team that was sent out on the field last Saturday out weighed by several pounds the team that represented the Red and Gold team last year, and seemed to show q more powerful offense. However, Suffield was very weak and did not give New Britain a real test. It is hoped that the team next week will be a stronger combination.
 New Britain will use the same lineup with McGrath, center; Bruce and Erickson, guards; Anselmo and Bromberg, tackles; Gorden and Zehrer, ends; Fengler. quarterback: Matulis and Zaleski, halfbacks; and Claire, fullback. Carlson will be ths first substitute in the backfeld and Conley and Scully will jump into the line when called upon.

Carl Brink, it is said, felt pretty badly about dropping the forward pass in last Sundays game but We don't see d thing to feel so badly over Seeing the number of fum-. bIcs the New Britain players com mitted last Sunday, Brink wasn't any worse than any of the others and he must remember that every one drops one once in a while.

It Is certain that those who saw last Sundays game. were not satis- fled with the game against the Now York Giants. The Hartford team is getting a hard banning on all sides and this does not mean that New Britain fans alone are handing out the dope. The Hartford people who saw the team in action last Sunday, are rather hard on Mulligan's charges.

Just for the sake of comparison, although we know that Dutch" Connors will not play here this year, we would like to name off what would be a perfect outlay for New Britain this year. Take "Butsy" Sturm at left halfback where he has already shown his mettlc this year. "Silent John" Davis can fill tho fullback position efficiently and then take Dutch" Connors at the right halfback position aad it looks as if New Britain would ta all set.
