Every Little Bit
Helps With Babe
Ruth

ASBURY PARK, n. j., Oct. IA.
Babe Ruth puts business ahead of
basebalI--in exhibition games, at
least. Before starting play
against the Brooklyn Royal
Giants here, Ruth insisted upon
collecting q guarantee of $4,000,
holding up the game an hour
while 1000 fans raved.
Lou Gehrig. the Babes partner,
broke up the game with his Sec
ond homer. Then several thou
sand youngsters broke it up per-
manently by swarming on the
field and stealing the teams

Notre Dame meets the Navy at
Baltimore in the first football
game between these two institu-
tons. Last year both were repre-
scented by strong elevens. Each
squad lost sixteen lettermen. The
Navy was hit a little harder than
Notre Dame but even SO it looks
to me like a very even game.
So far the Navy has shown re-
markable scoring power. This chap
Lloyd who played end last year is
developing into one of the best
backs in the east. No one tackler
has yet been able to bring MIN

either of whom may be in motion
before the ball is snapped. giving
them an offensive which is rare
combination of deception and
power.
The Notre Dame attack is prac-
tically the same as last year and
it seems to be about as strong as
usual. Those critics who insisted
that the one second stop would
nullify the Notre Dame attack
apparently have another guess
coming.
st. Mary's under Slip Madigan,
beat Stanford, Is to 0; Georgia,
under Harry Mehre and Jimmy
Crowley beat Yale, IA to 10, and
Jimmy Phelan's Purdue boys were
successful over Harvard 10 to 0.
I believe that the one second
stop has been a fine thing for
football-no question about it-but
/ believe the results so far show
that the critics who claim that the
shift depended for success on illegal
momentum are mistaken.
