Diplomatic Rejoinder to New

sion Yesterday Is Simple,
But Effective - Champion
Shows Business Acumen and
Ability
BY ALAN J. GOULD

(AssOciated Press Sports EditOr)
New York, April 4.-(AP)-The
fistic events of the last few days
have furnished convincing evidence
that Gene Tunney not only is man.
aging his own affairs but doing
pretty well at it for a young fellow
whose chief aim in life not long ago
seemed to be the mastery Of seven
syllable words.
Gene still has command of an ex-
tensive and often effective vocab-
ularly. But his latest word to the
boxing commission, in addition to
being noteworthy as diplomatic
rejoinder, contains no word in ex-
cess of five syllables and only two
of those. It proves that the simple
language can be, and often is, more
effective and forceful than compli-
Gated phraseology.

communication from the New York

Babes Eleventh Inning Smash
at Chattanooga Not Enough
as Yanks Lose
BY BRIAN BELL
Associated Press Sports Writer

=
New York, April 4.-R)-All'a
right with that part Of the baseball
world inhabited by Babe Ruth
Birds are singing, grass is green
and spring has come for the big
slugger 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 18th 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 18th and went on
to win in the 18th, 3 to 2. The
world champions have now dropped
ii out of IA spring games. The
Yankees played the only extra inn
ing game of the day and were the
only major leaguers to fall before
q minor league outfit.
Giants Beat Senators
The Giants extended their win
ming streak to 10 games, downing
the Washington Senator'S, 8 to z.
Andy Cohen came to life at the bat
with two triples and a single, sug-
costing that possibly he has inherit
ed Rogers Hornsby's bat along with
his job. Bill Terry got two triples
and a double.
/ Brooklyn finished in front Of Ma
con, Robin farm, 9 to 3. Charlie
Hargreaves equalled his last sea-
sons base running record by steal
ing a base.
A game at Memphis developed
43 hits and 30 runs, the Chicago
White Sox getting 10 Of the runs
and &c hits while The Southern as
ISOLATION chicks had II runs and II
hits. The Hose blasted May for II
hits in one and One-third innings.
Make 1t Two Straight
Cincinnati's Reds made it two
straight over Louisville. The Ken
tuckians failed to register in the
first game. Adolfo Luque was
reached for only one run in five
innings.
The st. Louis Cardinals hit the
ball hard to defeat Nashville, 10 to
z. Blades, Frisch and Hafey showed
the way at bat.
Dan Howley's st. Louis Browns
used 81 hits to score % runs while
Tulsa's best was eight. Ten rounds
