RUTH LEARNING ID
 PLAY SAXOPHONE
Home Run King Is Seeking New
 Worlds of EndeaVor to Conquer

New York, Dec. 23 Pt-Babe
 Ruth, home run hitter extraordinary
 golfer. hunter, motorist, bridge eX-
 pert and epicturean, is seeking new
 worlds to conquer. He's learning
 how to play a saXophone.
 The Babe wants to pour out soul ful tunes and jazzy bits, just like Paul Whiteman, so he confessed to his brethren here of the Yankees.
 T can play two pieces now, ' George Herman proudly exclaimed
 at the Yankees offices yesterday following his return from a hunting trip in the Long Island marshes.
 Say, if l hada sax here now l could show you. By spring I'll be able to give you fellows 6 real con-
 cert"
 By spring you probably won't have any wind left to blow with" Secretary Ed Barrow of the Hanks grunted
 Going into the details on his hunt ing expedition, Ruth enthusiastically | described lying in wait for the
 duclings. He didn't provoke much confidence from his listeners and 1 when the skeptical looks became rather pronounced, the Babe pulled
 a goose out of his huge fur coat and made Barrow a present of it. Say, I'm in great shape" the 1 Bambino went on. I'm down 10 223 pounds which is eleven pounds less than I scaled during last season. | Recalling the Babes bridge and eating game, on a train recently he was playing a threo-spade bid while his opponents and his partner. were ordering sandwiches for i'm
 mediate delivery. The prospect of eating sidetrached Ruth from the cards and he was set two. Then he spoke his mind.
 How can I play three spades
 with you fellows yelling one Swiss i cheese, two hearts, four ham and 1 eggs." he demanded.
 As for Ruth's golf well he con
 cedes he playa1 championship course in California in a par 72. With his golf stick, the Babe can hit farther than anyone else when the occasion demands. just like swatting q baseball. He can place mashie shots and butts like thos2 l bunts in baseball, too.

HOOP TOSSERS READY FOR
 GAME WITH BRISTOL FIVE
New Britain State Basketball League Quintet Meets Arch-rivals Tomorrow Night Both Quintets Primed for Stiff Battle-Visitors Are to Present
 Stronger Lineup Than Last Year - Locals Put in Practice Session-Contest Important to Both Clubs.

The New Britain basketball team is ready for one of the toughest bat ties of the year tomorrow night al the Stanley Arena when the Bristol Endees, arch-rivals of the Hardware City quintet, make their initial ap- perance of the present season in this city. Bristol has been travelling along at top speed in the league ard will present a lineup tomorrow night that will be stronger than that of last year.
 The Endees have been strength ened by the addition of Munby, q forward, and Marchinck, last years guard. In all Of their games this year, the Bristol sharpshooters have been battling for first place and al though they have been beaten in some, the scores showed the contests 10 have been real battles.
 New Britain held q spirited two hour practice at the Stanley Arena Wednesday night. The team showed up very poorly against the Hartford Yankees laA Saturday night and Manager Lanpher dccreed that the squad would have to go through a workout weekly until it again hits it's stride.
 New Britain also will be strength encd for tomorrow nights game through the addition to the squad of Jimmy Sh"ehan, star guard of the National Guards Of last year. Shee- han has proved on many occasions to be Jimmy Malcolm's nemesis and he will probably get the assignment to guard the Bristol captain in the game. Sh"ehan has been the star of the Tabs quintet since the season opened and his game. if anything, has improved His appearance with New Britain tomorrow night should strike q popular note with the crowd.
 Although the spirit of peace should pcrvade the earth because of the next day being Christmas, there will he no Christmas eve spirit in evidence while the basketball game is on. Fans who remember the memorable battles between New Britain and Bristol last year from which the locals emerged with the state championship, may well expect just as fierce a struggle when the two clash tomorrow night.
 New Britain will go to Bristol 10 play Monday night and every effort will be made to win both games.
