DOUBT GIVES THRILL

m UTH'S drives attain such a
Tx height that opposing out
Ill flelders insist they should
have straw under their caps as pro-
lection. I have seen the greatest
outfelders IN the game fail to get
their hands on some of Ruth's high
flies, the ball dropping safely to
the ground untouched.
There is always greater thrill
when the element of doubt enters
into the situation AS Ruth hits
one of his towering fly balls, the
fans Immediately begin to wonder
whether or not the ball will carry
into home run territory. Ruth's
home runs, for that reason, take
longer.
While Gehrig hits them high, far
and handsome as does Ruth, still
most of his home runs are de-
cidedly clean cut. AS they leave the
bat, you say, that one is over the
garden wall"

Gehrig really gets just as much

a home run by the Babe travels a
greater distance, as rule, than a
Gehrig clout for the circuit.
Ruth hits under the ball more
than Gehrig: as a result, there is
