Vital Spark

World Champs Fail to

United Press Stan Correspondent

NEW YORK. May 23.-It becomes
increasingly difficult to picture Mil
Ter Higgins as the third manager
in major league history TO lead a
baseball club to its fourth straight
pennant
Not that the diminutive Higgins
Is lacking in any Of those qualities
that go 70 make a good manager.
but the New York Yankees seem
TO lack the vital spark this year
that carried them 10 championships
IN 1925, 1927 and 1923.
One year ago today. the Yankees,
With a percentage Of .306, we're six
games ahead Of the field in the

Of the dopesters had conceded them
the pennant
Today they are three and one
half games behind the leading
Philadelphia team and their erratic
play this year has furnished no
grounds for the prediction that they
Will show great improvement.
Wednes day's double defeat at the
hands Of the Senators, who had just
lost five straight games, is clear
proof there is something amiss in
The Yankee camp-and it is doubt
ful If even Higgins is sure just
what it is
Babe Ruth is six home runs be-
hind his 1928 record at this date.
II may be that this has something
10 do with the Yankee situation.
AS Ruth goes so go the Yankees"
is slogan that has been generally
accepted by sports writer's, partly
because of its phonetic beauty, and
partly because it so often has
worked out in practice. Ruth's
worst recent year was 1925 when
the Yanks finished in seventh place.

THE Big Ten track meet at

Evanston this weekend should be
an interesting affair. There are a

teams in the conference. Illinois
was the outstanding team as regards
dual games, but it would not be
surprising to see Iowa repeat it's in
door success and tally the largest
number Of points in the big meet.
Illinois has fine dual meet strength,
but not enough outstanding per-
formers, whereas the struggle for
first place should lie between Iowa
and Illinois, with Michigan and Ohio
State right on their heels. Chicago
and Indiana have stronger teams
than usual and should cut heavily
into the scoring.

At present both Spanish and English

bill extending Spanish as one of the off,

asserted that some judges, by insisting
that the proceedings of their courts be
conducted in Spanish, worked an undue
hardship upon them. since, having re-

Gov Stimson signed the bill, but issued

stating that hereafter the matter would
be dealt with enthusiastically.

was driven on the reefs of barren
Michipicoten Island Tuesday night
