Has Made Great Change.

How completely the famous slugger
has changed isn't alone demonstrated
by The fact that five years later. at
the age of 80. he cracked his six-year-
old home run record. It's best proof
~ the fact that his off season occupa.
tions now are hunting, fishing and
golf. outdoor sports that keep him in
as good trim as during the Summer
season. Now that he has tried 1t out,
he admits he prefers the simple life.
And he is saving his money. Draw
ing $1,000 under his Yankee contract
that has two more years to run at
that figure. Ruth collected we'll over
$3.50. 900 altogether from various
sources this year.
But is was really :he "hot-water-
wagon" treatment of Artie McGOvern.
the Babes trainer. that put the Babe
permanently on the comeback road.
Artie took the Babe in hand several
years ago, when his base ball days
were considered to be numbered.
Ruth's famous stomach ache put him
on the shelf in 1925. and most of the
! bows believed he would stay there,
But the hot-water treatment. supple
mented by dieting and stiff course of
exercises, put the Babe on his ballet
dancers feet. He has stayed there
ever since.
