John Deere was contented enough
working on his farm, but his mother
was ambitious and wanted to see her
20-year-old son in q position Of impor-
tance; that is, In one that entailed q
fine livery. So he left the farm and be-
came running footman for Lord Bringle.
for in addition to doing errands for his
lordship and running ahead Of his car
occasions he was obliged to precede him
on long journeys Of as much as SO
miles in day. This was all in the
eighteenth century. John became en-
tirely reconciled to his hard job because
of his love for . woman. His story is
told in THE Ruz0ing Footman." by

cause of his small, frail body. he was
called by his friends Little Aleck," but
It was name Of affection, not Of disre-

strong men when he felt that his honor
demanded such a settlement. The
book tells in detail of one such fight,
which nearly cost Stephens his Nfe-the

Ten football championship this year.

and they are Michigan and North

Ohio States other conference

their two big games is that Mich

With Early Wedding Bells on His
Mind, Lefty Ties Bruins in Knots

In the YankS' dressing room,
Gomez was the center of q whirl-
wind of congratulations.
What pitcher-what pitcher!"
echoed through the disorderly room
as players scrambled out of uni
forms.
Meanwhile Gomez had managed
to wriggle his six feet two into
trousers and shirt and was combing
his hair, despite Fostering pack
of reporters. Some one remarked it
would be an appropriate time for
Lefty to announce the date of his
approaching wedding.
I can do that very thing" Lefty
came back with a smile. June set
the date today We're to be mar
ried the day after the Yankees come
back from Chicago Naturally, I
hope We win the next two games
I'll be home quicker"
Lefty's fiancee is a brown-eyed
Irish beauty, Miss June O'Dea, the
19-year-old dancing star in the hit,
"Of Thee I Sing" She's a New
York girl. Gomez met her at a
theater party some time ago. They
will make their home in New York.
Gomez comes from the obscure
town of Rodeo, Cal. His father was
one of the first professional rodeo
riders in the country. He is fast
ball specialist, reputed to have as
much speed as any hurler in the big
leagues. He played his first pro-
fessional baseball in 1923 with Salt
Lake City of the Utah-Idaho
League. He went to the San Fran
cisco Seals of the Pacific Coast
League in 1929
The Yankees brought him to New
York in 1880, but were not i'm
pressed and sent him to ST. Paul
late that season. Last year Man
ager Mccarthy of the Yanks didn't
use him as starter until mid-June.
Then Lefty amazed every one by
winning twenty-one games and los
ing nine. This season he won
twenty-four and lost seven.

Ruth'S understudy. If you accepted
him as that you were, by his own
admission, paying him a very high
compliment. The young mans name
was and is Gehrig.
1 will argue that there was a time
when Gehrig should have been a
very happy young man to carry
Ruth's bat, because when Ruth was
Ruth there was no player who was
even reasonably close to him in
sheer ability-which is, and always
has been, the least of his appeal.
I have to confess, however, that
he is through. I watched him in
the first and second games against
the Cubs and he is just a well-fed
veteran athlete, enthusiastic in his
ambitions but quite lamentable in
his accomplishments
The Babe has been to bat six
times officially. He has made two
hits-both singles. They don't pay
the Babe $4,000 a year to hit singles.
Even doubles and triples mean little
to him. The Babe is the high priest
of smuggling. With him it is four
bases or no count.
Well, before the series is over I
expect to see the Babe slam out at
least two home runs, because that
is the one part of his genius that
will endure for a long time. He
can still follow the flight of the
fast ball and he can still swing from
the hip-and with a gusto and
grunt that nobody ever has dupH-
Gated in baseball.
II ENNEDY is eminently correct.
IN At least about giving cheers
for Gehrig. The Columbia Dutch
man is probably the greatest ball
player the metropolis ever has de-
veloped. More than that, he is one
of the finest team players, and COM
petltlVe athletes. He is always in
there dying for dear old Rupert,
and nothing ever gets his dauber
down.
They were wondering some days
ago how much Ruth would con-
tribute to the series. Well, in two
games Ruth has contributed prac-
tically nothing. They are wonder
ing now if Gehrig can win the
series for the Yankees single
handed. The thing may change
before the show is over but up to
now the master has been dressing
the valet.
