One Year Risk

But the important deduction
from Ruth's being hitched to
his latest contract is that it is
for but one year. Previously
signed to two and three year
contracts, Ruth is now a one
year gamble, according to the
viewpoint Of the Yankee owner
who wouldn't take a chance on
longer than single years sal
ary arrangement.
Ruth became SO years Of age
last month, but an extraordi-
nary man in every sense OF the
word, he can't be counted as
near through at his age as the
ordinary ball player might at
the same milestone.
A natural bali player in every
sense Of the word, a graceful
man at the plate, afield or on
the paths, there is no reason
why Ruth shouldn't be in the
game, several more years, bar
ring accident.
He is as extraordinary in his
way as Jack Quinn or Grover
Cleveland Alexander or any OF
the others who were useful in
the game until they were well
past the 40-year mark. Ruth
win probably be around to sign
several more one-year contracts,
but as Colonel Rupert has de-
duced, at 38 Ruth is one a one
year risk.

The younger hurlers are hav
ing it out among themselves to
impress Bosses Griffith and
Johnson. Joe Judge and Joe
Kuhel are silently staging a
fight to land the first base job,
while two other battles find Cliff
Bolton and Howard Maple fight,
ing for all they are worth to
win the third string catcher'S
berth, and the youngster Ralph
Boyle trying to oust Dave Harris
for the reserve outfield post.
Among the group of young
pitchers battling away for recog'
milton, Frank Ragland, Lefty
Lynn Griffith and Bob Friedrich
continue to lead in the group in
Guiding Mike Delaney, Johnny
Boyle and Bud Thomas. Monte
Weaver, the other supposed
youngster, is ''in" in view Of his
experience and past record as a
Baltimore Oriole star.
Kuhel Favored
In regards to Joe Judge and
Joe Kuhel. things are at a
standstill at present. Both are
being given the chance to show
their wares, but it's a foregone
conclusion that Kuhel will get
the assignment. .
Hitting will play an important
part in the battle between Boil
ton and Maple for the catching
Job. Throwing will also come
in for a big share. Comparing
the two, Bolton can hit better
than Maple, but the latter has II
all over Cliff when it comes to
firing 'em down to second base,
Who will win the position is still
q matter of question, as Grill
and johnson plan to keep ootn
until the season opens.
Hitting will also play an i'm"
portant role in the Boyle-HarriS
fight for the outfield berth. Har-
ris, of course, is the better slugger,
but Boyle has advanced a little
bit at bat in recent stick drills,
strengthening his cause that
much more.
Best at Fielding
Fielding also will help decide
between this pair. Here, Boyle
leads Harris by a country, mile,
but whether Griffith and john
son will retain the former Balti-
more Oriole outfielder is a ques-
ton as should Boyle make the
grade Griff must pay out $4,000
for his services.
So it is with your Uncle Clark's
athletes at this stage Of the train
ing period. 1t is interesting to
say the least to watch those
named battle for dear life for
positions they hope will gain them
fame and fortune as big leaguers.
The lone exception is Joe Judge,
who already has attained fame
during his career, but who wants
to play some more because he
feels he has one or two seasons
in his system before retiring.
The next few weeks will tell a
little story all its own In each
instance or group named in this
yarn. With the time getting
