Drive Is Not Enough to Enable
 Yankees to Win Ball Game

New York. April 1 CP - All's right that part of the baseball world inhabited by Babe Ruth. Birds are singing. grass is green and spring has come. for the big slug ger has hit his first home run since 1927. Inspired perhaps by the lofty shadows of Lookout mountain stretching across the Chattanooga ball park, Babe lifted the ball out of the lot in the 11th inning of yes terday's game between the Yankees and Chattanooga.
 Ruth's home run was not enough for the Lookouts tied the score in their half of the 11th and went on to win in the 18th, 3 to ,, But the loss of the game was incidental. The world champions have dropped II out of IA spring games and one more means little at this stage of the campaign, especially when Babe Ruth hit homer. The Yankees played the only extra inning game of the day and were the only major leaguers to fall before a minor

TUNNEY MANAGES
 HIS OWN AFFAIRS
Tells Commission That He Lets Promoter Pick His Opponents

New York, April 4 lP)-The fistic events of the past few days have furnished convincing evidence that Gene Tunney not only is managing his own affairs but doing pretty well at it for a young fellow whose 1 chief aim in life not long aga seemed to be the mastery of seven- syllable words.
 Gene still has command of an ex- tensive and often effective vocabu- lary. But his latest word to the boxing commission, in addition to being noteworthy as diplomatic rejoinder, contains no word in cx- cess of five syllables, and only two of those. It proves that the simple more effective and forceful than complicated phraseology.
 While I have received no official communication from the New York state boxing commission-' A ges- ture of reproof in that line, obvious ly. Further on:
 The commission knows me we'll enough to know I have never se- lected my opponent but have always left that detaA to the promoter A gentle touch of irony here, perhaps.
 Time was, and not so long ago. when Gene Tunney. then only a fair to middlin' light heavyweight, needed manager and some good ring advice if he was to get any where. The veteran Billy Gibson filled both requirements. steered Tunney into the American light heavyweight title and paved the way for the Dempsey match in 1926 that brought Tunncy to the peak.
 Gene wasn't champion of the world more than d few days, how ever, before he decided to handle his own affairs. He has done SO ever since. Gibson, even if his voice in the champions business is no longer above q whisper. at least shares, financially in Genes success.
 Tunney got the title but little else at Philadelphia in 1926. He had to go on vaudeville tour to make some money He has made a pretty fair job since then of managing his own affairs. He collected close to million at Chicago and has had his own way. 1t appeared. In select ing Heeney as well as n July date for his first and perhaps only 1928 engagement

 AS the first big college regatta of year that has the Olympic goal in the offing for the fastest crew at a distance of 2,000 meters the far western event has more than ordinary interest.

No study of the spring exhibition results would provide any clue 10 the fact that the Yankees and Pi- rates were champions of their re- spective major leagues last year. The showing of the two title holding clubs in fact has been as poor. if not poorer. as that of any other outfit in training. The Yankees have dropped most of their games while the Pirates were floored five times in a row by the up and coming Chicago Cubs.
