BATTING STYLES
VERY Different
Wide Divergence Seen in Form
Of Babe and Lou Gehrig

New York. July Ri-Babe Ruth
and Lou Gehrig are hammering at
the same goal-the Babes major
league home run record but their
batting styles are as far apart as
the poles.
Baseball's big time" hasn't had
as colorful a contrast on as interest
ing an individual batting duel in
years as the tussle between the big
Bam' and the Boy Buster follow
ing each other in the batting order
and chasing each other around the
bases for home run honors.
What's the difference in their
methods How do these smuggling
twins do it? Let the astute Miller
Higgins tell you. Miller is only
half the size of either Ruth or
Gehrig but he bosses both. He has
developed Columbia Lou and
handled the Bambino through the
latter's greatest and stormiest sea-
sons
There are five salient features to

eye-power and coordination are

ager. Here are the three main
points of difference:
1-Gehrig hits flat-footed. Ruth
stands with feet together. poised,
before stepping into" the ball.
2-Gehrig doesn't start his swing
/ until the ball is almost on top of
him. Ruth starts his swing almost
with the wind-up.
3-Gehrig, taking a shorter swing.
is more consistent and harder to
outguess. Ruth, with his longer
swing. hits a harder. longer ball and
is more liable to connect with bad
one.
In temperament. the Buster and
the Babe are as dissimilar as their
| batting styles. Gehrig is phlegma-
tic, easygoing and not given to
flights Of temperament. The Babe
has mellowed considerab bly, since the
! days when he was haseballs bad
boy" but he is naturally Of the
nervous. high-strung type in action
The rivalry between the two slug
gers is entirely friendly. approaching
almost OF the "Alphonse and Gas
ton" variety. Gehrig. if mention is
made of beating ont Ruth for
! home run honors. will toss it off with
a motion expressive of foolshness
of anyone trying to Guido the
master. Ruth. in the same vein. will
say that If the clouting Croix de
Guerre is to be awarded to anyone
else. he hopes it will be Lou.

Mr.. Green's home and headquarters

this great city he is highly respected
and honored by all classes; he is held
in high regard by the bankers and

his influence that the bankers of New

These influential business men as

they would protect the financial inter

the compliment OF their fullest conf

AT the last meeting Of the Supreme
Lodge at St. Louis, Mo, it was clearly
demonstrated that the order has made
wonderful progress under the guidance
of Chancellor Green. The sessions
were the most successful it has held
in its history and the entire convention
was conducted under the most favor

characterized every days session.

practically no opposition to the slate

BY Charles Alexander

A short while ago, under the leader
ship of Supreme Chancellor Hon. s.
W. Green, celebration was held in
New Orleans. The beautiful Knights
Of Pythias Temple was paid out OF
debt and the significant fact brought
the two races in New Orleans much
closer together-for this temple cost a
great deal Of money-in all 100000;
and money, you know, has the magic
charm OF bringing to pass goodwill
and friendliness where other things
fail. The prompt discharge of fnan-
cial obligations promotes certain
kind of confidence that is enduring.
Moreover, the success of this enter
prise in New Orleans was due from
the start to the cordial cooperation
of the bankers Of that city. This CO.
operation was the result Of the faith
which these bankers have in the in
tegrity of the leader Of the movement.
His business ability is we'll known
his faithfulness and prudence have
been we'll tested in the estimation Of
the best commercial circles-he is re-
garded as substantial citizen.
Mr.. Green is one of. the outstanding,
personalities among the
Negroes in the United States. He is
the supreme chancellor of the Knights
of Pythias of North America, South
America, Europe, Asia, Africa and
Australia His manly attitude on all
questions, his plain speech, his honest
methods, his unassuming manners,
has conspired to make him a great
power among the Knights of Pythias.
He is obviously one of the safest lead
ers the race has produced, and it is
fortunate that thinking men in the
ranks of the order have long since

the order for keeping and maintaining
this splendid condition.
Chancellor Green first joined the
Knights of Pythias in 1883, when in
the month of July of that year, as a
charter member, he helped to form
Tensas Lodge No. 21. He is the pride
of Louisiana, the state in which he
was born. He has served as grand
chancellor in the state from 1892 to
the present time, declining the Office
for two years, 1898; but being re-
elected in 1899, he has been continued
in that Office ever since.
He succeeded S. w. Starks in 1908
as supreme chancellor and was elected
Continued on Page ~
to that office in 1909, and has been re-
elected at every session since. The
Supreme Lodge meets in convention
every two years.
At the last convention held in St.
Louis, over 1000 uniform rank men,
bers were encamped, while fully 10000
delegates and friends attended the ses-
sions. Twenty-four grand lodges from
as many states were represented; and
the military parade, the climax to the
convention, was pronounced one of the
most impressive and beautiful ever
people in every walk of life lined the
streets and appl4uded the Knights as
they passed by. The competitive drill,
which took place at night in the great
Coliseum, attracted a crowd that filled
the building to its utmost capacity.
Taken by and large this convention
aided the Colored people in making ia
vorable sentiment and will long linger
in the minds Of the people as indicat-
ing the dignity and self-respect Of
class struggling for fair play and jus
tice.
AT this convention the illuminating
facts were brought out that the re-
sources of the Knights of Pythias
amounted to $1,770,0OO in cash and
property Eleven magnificent Grand
Lodge temples have been erected,
ranging in value from $4,000 to over
100000; while many temples owned
by local lodges run into large invest
ments. The Supreme Lodge owns a
row Of brick flats in Chicago valued
at nearly $4,000, bath house and
sanitorium at Hot Springs, Arkansas,
valued at $4,000, and other valuable
property. At the last session the Su-
preme Lodge was authorized to erect
in Chicago a temple to cost 100000.
A man who stands for so much and
who has achieved so much for the ma
terial upbuilding of the race, cannot
long be stigmatized or held in con-
tempt, once his history is we'll known.
Chancellor Green is a man Of vision
