RUTH NOW EVEN
WITH ~ PACE

NEW YORK, Aug. 26.-Babe
Ruth passed his 124th and 125th
games, and he may, or may not,
be behind his home run pace of
1927, according as you figure it.
At any rate, he is no longer ahead
of his record figures, as he had
been for months. .....-
Back in 1927 Ruth hit his forty
fourth homer in The Yankees
124th game. He has been through
their 125th game this year, and
he has only a.. That would seem
to put him one game behind. But
here is the catch-he didn't hit
his forty-fifth that year until the
Yankees 128th game, so he cannot
really fall behind until after the
three-gar-e series ends in Wash
ington next Sunday.
With only 20 more games to be
played it is quite unlikely Babe
can set a new record. He needs
16 to tie his old mark, II to set a
new one.

enter the ring with a record

whether miniature golf is a
sport or an amusement. If golf
at Rock Creek Park and Po-
tomac parks are in the group
that is exempt from Sabbath
closing, then why isn't golf on
a privately owned diminutive
course in the same classified
tiOn?
AS Ellis Parker Butler once
wrote Pigs is pigs" and while
Parker was not exactly a Black
stone, it seems that golf ought
to be golf, Saturdays, Sundays
and weekdays. A decision from
local authorities in the test
case against Young Sorrell to
the effect that street-corner
golf is just as much of a sport
and as little OF an amusement
as its bigger brother, pasture
golf. will be greeted by thou
sands of addicts of the peewee
game, as sane, common sense,
fair-minded decision.
Since John McGraw traded
Larry Benton to Cincinnati
for Second Baseban Hughie
Critz. and thereby got a mid
dle-sacker who could help exc
cute double plays, the Giants
have been a threat in the Ma
tional League. ,
With only five weeks to go
in the baseball races. there ap-
pears to be a possibility that a
world series might be witnessed
this autumn between teams
led by those two famous vet
Grams, John McGraw and Cor
nelius McGillicuddy-men who
have outlived in baseball activ-
ity many of their contempt
raries of other years and two
of the most distinguished base
ball strategists of current times.
What a battle of wits a Sc
rieS between the McGrawmen
and the Mackmen would de-
velop! There would be a fas-
cination about such a compe-
tition that would lend charm
no series has claimed since
1911 when the Athletics won in
a six-game stretch. Before that,
in 1905 teams led by McGraW
and McGillicuddy played a five
game series, New York being
the aggreSSor.
Should the Giants and Ath-
letics meet this year, the rub
ber set would be decided, and
in view of their advancing
years it is unlikely baseball's
two best known Irishmen would
ever again pit their years of ex-
perience and baseball material
against each other. Neither the
Giants nor the Athletics have
been managed by any but
their present pilots for over a
quarter of a century, distinc-
ton we don't believe any other
two teams in the majors can
boast. Mack has always piloted
the AS.

highly divergent types of young
Americans, the one bronzed, i'm

trict amateur.
DR.. Larry S. Otell plans to take
a months vacation and compete
in as many tournaments as pos
sible in September. Otell was
practicing his putting touch yes
terday at Indian Spring.
The conflict of dates for
the BannOckburn and Subur-
ban tournaments will mean
that both clubs will suffer
as far as entrants from
Washington are concerned.
Several local golfers have al
ready stated they intend en-
tering the Suburban meet

they will cast their choice
for BannOckburn.

The Washington times., 1930-08-26

No story printed in this mans
town in. moons and moons has
caused the furry of comment
which followed the publication
in this newspaper last week Of
the news that Owner Clark
Griffith had tried to peddle
Art Shires to the Detroit tt
gers-unsuccessfully.
A man who delves into sport
i've things pretty much every
day of the 365 ought to be in
a fair position to judge what
captivates the reading public,
and gauging the interest in
Shires and the wish and hope
that he remains here by the
number. of people whom we
contact in the course of a
working day and a playful eve
ming. who have expressed a
liking for Whataman and his
playing we would say Washing
ton is little short of aroused
over the possibility of losing
this colorful man, despite the
fact the baseball audiences 10
cally have seen all too little Of
him. Veritably hundreds Of
people have told this writer Of
their fondness for Shires and
his work.
But Shires is going to leave
Washington, ladies and gents,
and probably before another
season rolls around. Griffith Is
very anxious to place Art in
Baltimore. provided he can get
the other major league clubs to
waiver on him, for Baltimore
is going to need a first base
man just as soon as Joe Hauser
is sold to some major club,
which will probably be during
the coming winter.
In return for Shires. Griff
hopes to get Lefty Stewart
Bolen, a pitcher the Old Fox
has been fancying for some time
but on whom the Orioles have
placed a very fancy price tag.
Such a move would still leave
Washington with a couple OF
cracker-jack first basemen in
Joe Judge and Joe Kuhel, but
two first basemen are none too
many, and, besides, in all prob
ability Judge will move on to
Detroit to manage when Bucky
Harris moves into President
Frank Navin'S front office and
takes over the executive reignS
of the Motor City entry.
So there. fans, is an approx
mate answer to the oft-aSked
question-"What does Griff
want with three first basement
Shires, Kuhel and Judge?"
1t is difficult for the nonlegal
hind to differentiate between

Surprising as it may seem to

ball experts claim that Phila-

pion Athletics. Gate returns here
have been very unsatisfactory
this season.
After waiting II years to land
a pennant it seems that Quaker
town would rally to its present
blue ribbon crowd. Yet week
day games have polled as few
as 2.0On paid admissions per
contest-a none too. flattering
turnout for an American League
leader.
OF course there may have been

may be renewed. But, the fact
remains, none of the loyalty ex-
pected has prevailed among Phil.

Even AL Simmons. premier

occasions recently. And when
it is considered AL is nation.
ally known and admired for
his prOwesS, the reason is diff
ficult to ascertain.
Too, Ed Rommel. knuckle ball
singing expert. has been re-
peatedly shoWered with jeers and
cat calls but when going into the
box this indication is a none too
healthy one. Here's hoping the
tide of sentiment turns shortly.
Washington club players have
decided to play the Athletics at
their own game. In other words
they are sliding into bases with
spikes up and are passing up no
opportunity to bump the enemy.
An excellent example of the new
plan of warfare was uncovered
in the eighth period Of yester-
days combat When Sammy Rice
grounded to Bishop, Buddy Myer
was forced at second with a
throw to Boley.
AS the ex-Oriole wheeled around
in an effort to double up Rice at
first, Myer charged into the bag
with everything he had, causing
Boley to throw wild past Foxx
and putting Sammy in position
to score on Cronin's single.
Four umpires, HiIdebrand
MOriarty, Guthrie and Nal
lin, handled the game and
got away with it very well.
Clark Griffith, who watched
the game from the stands was at
his widest as a rooter. Griffith
is still backing his club conf
IDENTIFY in its fight to overhaul
the AS.
While the Yankees were rest
ing yesterday Washington. by
winning out, increased its second
place margin to four full games.
Tonight the Griffs will return
to the Capital and are next to
lock up with Bob Shawkey's
Ruthians in a series that may
settle the .runner-up position def
initely.
During a tense moment of yes
terday's game, Joe Cronin rushed
to the box and went in confer
ence with Sam Jones. The STRAIT
egy dealt out by Joe was simply
this:
"Say, Sam, there's a swell
movie downtown tonight"
"Get back where you be-
long," Jones laughed.
But that slight interruotion
steadied the Sad One no little.
