$500 For Each Afternoons

st. Petersburg, Fla, March l7.-(P
For the first time in ten years
Babe Ruth today is working for the
old firm of Yankees under a one-year
contract.
It calls for $4,000 representing a
6 per cent cut of $1,000 but the de-
preston, relatively, has not hit the
homerun king more than a mild tap
In the region of the bank roll.
Among baseball men, the most
significant feature of the Ruth situa-
ton is the Yankee homogeneous en-
tire unwillingnesS to risk more than
one seasons pay on the chances of
the Babe sticking around the peak
in his we'll known speciality.
His general health and condition
never have appeared better but his
legs, most observers agree. show un-
mistakably the strain of 10 years in
the major leagues.
His batting eyes were none too
sharp in his first exhibition game
wednesday, when he failed to get a
hit in six tries, and was called out
twice on strikes, with Ed Brandt in
the box for the Braves. But no fears
are felt for Ruth's hitting provinces.
He will be blasting 'em, as they say,
until they move him up to the plate
in q wheel chair.
Ruth feels he Is good for at least
two or three years more of regular
work. He may be ready to take it
easier after rounding out 20 years,
which he considers his real goal for
active play.
Meanwhile, for playing $50 ball
games, more or less, Ruth will get a
presidential salary for 1882. Roughly
speaking, he will be paid around $500
for each afternoons work or relaxa-
ton during the regular American
League season.

Loop Pennant

Clearwater, Fla, March l7.-F-
Baseball history is crowded with the
table-sitting achievements of players
who have eaten themselves right out
OF the big leagues. Among this years
rapidly reforming cast OF Brooklyn
Dodgers, the process is being reversed,
with the result that curious collec-
ton OF castoffs IS eating its way
back into condition and threatening
to disrupt the National League pen
nant race.
This renaissance was bound to fol-
low the passing of the old warrior,
Uncle Wilbert Robinson. and the Sue
cession to leadership of Professor Max
Carey. Calisthenics, salary cuts, the
big deal with Cincinnati and, finally,
regulation OF the commissary depart
ment, all have contributed to the
most interesting shake-ups in recent
big league history.
Hoyt Reduces
Carey credits the so-called Waite
Hoyt diet for his preliminary success
in reducing waist lines and avoirdu-
pois. Discarded by the Athletics and
the American League, Hoyt joined
Brooklyn with q promise to behave
and win 20 ball games. He reported
in the best condition Of ,ears, minus
30 pounds Of excess weight. and filled
with the zeal of q missionary.
With the veteran pitcher as an ex-
ample and preacher Of the dietary
doctrine, Carey persuaded heavy
weights like Hack Wilson, Dazzy
Vance and Babe Phelps to adopt
Hoyt's eating gospel. Like the calls

spread throughout the camp and even
