The Man Who Discovered Babe Ruth

~~~~~O ~"~S-~'
A FEW days after George
~ Herman Ruth had showed up
- at his first Spring training
camp, with the Baltimore Orioles,
and after he had been named Babe
by the older players, l received a
letter from Jack Dunn, his manager.
in which Dunn wrote:
Ruth is the greatest young ball
player who ever went to training
camp"
Well, Babe just continued to hit the
ball and he did some great pitching,
too. He made good and he didn't stay
in Baltimore long, but advanced to the
big leagues. However, Babe Ruth's
boyhood story was finished when he
hit that first home run at the training
camp. He had graduated then. He
was still a kid in years, but his back
was turned on the school In Baltimore
and he faced to base balls greatest
heights. And my story ends there, for
he became instantly so famous that
the intervening space of years has
been we'll covered by hundreds Of
sports writer's.
But now that you are still with me
I want to say few things about boys
and athletics. BE modest off the field,
but enterprising and fearless on 1t.
Have self.cOnfldence. Johnny Evers
and Eddie Collins were winning ath-
letes; they had plenty of initiative. BE
energetic. Be honest. Don't become
discouraged. You may never become
a star, but great good will come to you
physically. The very purpose of ath-
letics Is to enable our boys to unfold

LEAVES FOR FLORIDA

HOT SPRINGS. Ark. February q.
If there is one thing that Sam Rice
can do in true professional style be-
sides play base ball, 1t is play golf.
Rice yesterday proved that by defeat
ing J. G.. Stickney, former amateur
champion OF Missouri, in the final of
the George Washington golf tourna-
nent.
Now Rice, accompanied by Goose"
Goslin, Stanley Coveleskie. Joe Bush,
Johnny Tobin and Joe Judge. Is
headed for the Nationals training
camp in Tampa. with Rice the hap
piest Of the bunch. But one member
of the Washington American League
team remained behind. He Is Roger
Peckinpaugh, shortstop, who stated
he wanted a few more baths before
starting for Tampa.
Because one Of the outstanding
stars of the American League was
matched with the former amateur golf
champion of the "show me" State, a
big gallery was on hand when Rice
and Stickney teed off yesterday.
Goslin, according to report, has not
as yet affixed his signature to a Wash
ington contract, but it was believed
by the other players that whatever
difficulty now seems to stand in the
way will be taken care of when the
Goose, Harris and Griffith hold con-
fab after the Goslin reaches Florida.

the Pittsburgh fans, notorious for
being rabidly in favor of the home
team and recognizing nothing out
side of their team. cheered Balti-
more instead of Pittsburgh In the
last two games.
One play stands out In memory. /
believe 1t was the best mechanical
feat of this brilliant series. Kid
Gleason was pitching and the bat
ter drove sharply to first. The ball
came so fast to Dan Brouthers that
he could not get his glove down to
block it and the ball skipped through
his legs. ReitZ. our second basemar.
had started with the ball. He wanted
to back up Brouthers. but when he
saw that 1t would be next to i'm
possible to get the ball, he made a
dive for 1t. Reitz stabbed the ball
with his bare hand while sliding over
the grass and he tossed to first while
living on the ground. Gleason had
run over to cover the bag, Drouth-
ers never thinking that the bali would
be fielded. Gleason took the throw
and retired the runner.
/ have seen many unusual plays
in my career and l shall relate some
to you in succeeding chapters.
