'BAMBINO' Gets
NEW LEASE UPON
LIFE In SERIES
BY JACK CUDDY
Press Staff Corresnou


NEW YORK, Oct. 4.-U.P)-One
of the more important results of
the Yankees four straight world
series victory over the Chicago
Cubs may be the extension of Babe
Ruth's playing career for a couple
of years.
Baseballs brawny Ponce De
Leon admitted last night that he
discovered the fountain of youth
in the series and had decided to
continue playing indefinitely be-
cause he felt too young to quit"
This announcement surprised
baseball writer's who were ready to
ship him off to the Boston Red
Sox or some other club as player
manager at the end Of next sea-
son.
Babe had promised positively
that he would quit at the end of
1888 because he was feeling the
weight of his 38 years and 20 full
years of professional baseball.
Mrs. Ruth was wrapping a new
poultice on her husbands bruised
right forearm while the big fellow
talked of his plans. The arm had
been struck by a pitched ball dur
ing the last game at Chicago.
Honestly, had intended quit
ting. at the end of next season.
he said. But when l found out
that 1 was just as good as the
young bucks in the series, 1t knock
ed the years right out from under
me. And I felt so young again that
I changed my mind. The way I
feel now, I've got a couple more
good years in the old body-maybe
three"
Babe said he will do no barn
storming this winter. He'll play
golf, fish and hunt, and in Feb
ruary go to Florida to get ready for
the training season.
His reactions to the series fol-
low:
1.-THE Yanks are the heaviest hit
ting team New York ever had,
probably one of the greatest hit
ting outfits in history. Lou Gehrig
was the hero of the series. No. I
don't know anyone who could be
called the series goat.
Our pitching staff proved a
shade better than the Cubs. Cf)ca-
COS great weakness was in hit
ting. Yes, we expected their pitch
ing to be better than it was. 1 saw
no difference in the National league
ball. We hit is as far as the An/1r-
lean.
Charley Grimm is swell fell
Iowa great guy with a wonder
full personality. About his mana
gerial ability-we weren't in a po-
sition to judge that. No, I don't
expect any changes in the Yanks
next year. We've got a mighty fine
team just as it stands"

MISSING HEIR
FOUND THROUGH
LOCAL CHAMBER

Among the many duties which
fall to the Ell Centre Chamber of
Commerce, not the least frequent
is that of finding missing persons,
both in Ell Centre and in other
cities. While these quests are Of
ten unsuccessful, through the large
city directory library maintained
at the chamber, persons daily are
able to locate friends in other cit
les whose addresses they had lost
or who had moved without notify
ing their correspondents.
One of the most interesting
cases of finding a certain person,
according to Robert Hays, man
ager of the local chamber, was
ended today when the chamber To-
Gated Swiss dairyman in Idaho
for a local dairyman.
About a month ago an Imperial
Valley dairyman told the chamber
staff that a friend of his had died
in Switzerland and left an estate
which must be claimed by the son
of the deceased within short
period of time. Although this son
had lived in Imperial Valley about
10 years ago, he had since moved
to Idaho and his friend told Hays
that he did not know his Idaho
address but it was somewhere
near Boise he believed.
A letter to the Boise Chamber
of Commerce brought an answer
stating that the dairyman could
not be located but further effort
would be made and today the
Boise organization wrote that they
had located this man and gave
his address for the use of the local
dairyman, who will now get in
touch with him personally.
1--WE read much concerning the
duties of a chamber of commerce"
stated Hays today, "but I have
come to the conclusion that these
duties cannot be enumerated. The
aims and ideals are plain and cas-
lily followed, but the duties are
manifold and I believe the eff
Gent chamber regards all prob
lens which affect the community
or the individual resident in a
community as it's problem and
renders assistance in every way
possible to the individual, the bus
mess interests, the churches, and
civic service organizations and the
community as whole"

Jeffus Double OF
Hoover, Says Mills

The striking resemblance of AL
ton w. Jeffus, postmaster Of Braw-
ley, and representative of the I'M
perial county Republican central
committee, to President Hoover,
gave Ogden L. Mills, secretary of
the treasury and member of the
Hoover "shock troops a real thrill
when he arrived IN Los Angeles
yesterday to make two speeches
in the principal Republican presi-
dental campaign demonstration in
Southern California, according to
members of the Imperial county
Republican central committee.
There is certainly a remarkable
resemblance between the President
and yourself" Mills told Jeffus,
member of the official reception
committee as they posed for news
paper photographers at the rail-
road station.
Jeffus, who is playing leading
part in the Hoover campaign in the
Imperial valley was assured OF
Hoover's reelection by Mills.

SPORTS PARADE
OFFERS VARIETY
in T0DAY'S NEWS
By HENRY McLEMORE

United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK. Oct. 4.-tU.P)-The
worlds most important leather
trading post, Madison Square Gar
den, will open its doors to fall pa
tronage Friday evening with an en-
gagement between Benny Leonard,
the old Bald Eagle of the Bronx,
and Jimmy McLarnin, the Vancou-
yer boy who carries innocence on
hic face and death and destruction
in both hands.
The bout has more than its share
of intriguing angles. For one
thing it marks the crossroads for
both parties concerned. If Leon
ard loses he's out of the bigtime.
He'll still be able 10 get bookings
in the smaller clubs, butts it's pref
ty tough to recoup a fortune with
one night stands. And Leonard, you
know, isn't in there throwing that
left of his Cor rather what's left
of it, out of love for the game. The
urgent need of the old sugar is all
that brought him back.
A victory over McLarnin, and
Leonard will make more money
than he ever dreamed of back in
the days when he was tops among
the lightweights. It'll roll in from
all sides-eXhibitions, vaudeville,
and lucrative bouts. Including one
with Champion Jackie Fields
Just what McLarnIn would do
If kicked by Leonard is problem
atical. The odds are that Jimmy
would quit. It's no secret that he's
about ready to call it a day. A
licking by man 10 years or so
his senior would just about be the
old convincer. Money is no prob
lem with the Vancouver boy. Thrift
ty by nature, he is under the guild
ance Of a manager who is recog-
nized in all languages, including
the Scandinavian as being the final
authority on how to make nickel
do a half dollars work. What Pop
Foster doesn't know about econo-
my could be written on the head of
pin with a railroad tie.
Leonard Former Idol
Another fetching angle of the
bout is the sentimental angle. Ac-
cording to the Gardens research
and folk lore department, of which
Walter st. Denis is head man,
Leonard has long been McLarnin's
idol. That is, when Jeems was on
his way to mans estate he pattern
ed himself after Benjamin. To
some experts. this is most import
ant item, they arguing that Jeems
will be reluctant to lay damaging
rights and lefts on Benjamin's ag-
ing jowls. No one has as yet sug-
gested that Leonard will hesitate
before cracking his young worship
per on the snoot.
Another angle is the neat man
ner in which it will enable connois-
seurs of the manly art to COM
pare modern self-defense with that
of the old. In his day, Leonard
was the boxer supreme. Recent
ring warfare has seen few finer
opponents of the jab, hook, coun-
ter. etc., than McLarnin. And ring
followers love nothing more than
to compare the past and the pre-
sent. They're worse than a bunch
of women arguing the respective
merits of the hustle and the rum
ba skirt.
Angles 4, 5, 6 and 7 will be dis
cussed in later chapters.

CAR PARKING SPACE
DECLARED ILLEGAL
Unlawful Appropriation of Area
Is Charged to Agricul-
ture Unit.

The Agriculture Department was
charged with unlawful appropriation of
space within the Smithsonian Institu-
tion Grounds for its officials to park,
in test case before Traflc Court Judge
Isaac r. Hit today.
The controversy Of long standing be-
tween the Agriculture and other Gov
ernment departments came to q climax
when Maurice Parshall. an oficial of
the Internal Revenue Bureau. received
trafflc tick-t for parking in ono of
the "a specs which have been marked
ont and numbered solely for use of
officials OF tsa Agriculture DEPARTMENT.
Attorney Joseph c. Bruce. represent
ing Parshall. declared that this alloca-
ton Of space within the park was cen
trary to the recent act of Congress
authorizing Government departments to
reserve space In front OF their buildings
He characterized it as "legislating with
a paint brush" and discriminatory
against other officials and the general
public.
The reserving of this space, he said,
was different from that near other Gov
ernment buildings. where any Official
possessing car is allowed to park his
machine.
H. A. Nelson, chief clerk of the Agri-
culture Department said the spaces are
given employees who have to go between
their central Office here and experiment
st?tons at Arlington. Va. and Belts
VILE, Md, during the DAY. Otherwise,
he continued, they would have to spend
considerable time hunting a place to
Park.
Parshall was arrested September 70
by Park Policeman F. E. Bendure and
ne offered to test the case in court in
order to settle the controversy. Judge
Hit continued it for a week at request
of both sides to file briefs giving their
respective arguments.

America has forgotten the real facts
that brought about the passage OF our
law against whisky" Rev. Francis D.

perance Society, declared yesterday In

Rev. Nichol told the 200 members

handicap is the poor memory of the
public" in forgetting the ideals on
which the eighteenth amendment was
founded
Temperance unions were not the
fundamental cause of the constitutional
ban against strong drink" he contin-
ued, but the facts of science and
everyday business, which cannot be
overlooked" He then referred to the
New York State legislative investigation
of 1875, saying 1t laid the blame of
rs per cent of the crime Of New York
City TO strong drink.
