Going Back to 1882

"Ask Billy Evans what he
thought / was worth to the
Cleveland club last year. when 1
went home SICK" says Ruth.
''It is a matter of record that
he said the attendance fell off
some 10000 in the four days I
was out of the lineup in Cleve.
land.
"When 1 was out with a
charley horse in New York the
gate dropped. When 1 played
in Philadelphia the attendance
picked up again, I guess that
should answer the question of
what I am worth to the ball
club"
So instead of yielding, Ruth
is more adamant than ever
about what he calls a square
shake. He visions improved
conditions in view of the con-
fidence being expressed on all
hands in the Roosevelt Admin
1straticn with it's largely Demo-
: cratic Congress and the pre-
ponderance of Democratic gov
ernors.
He has no forebodings and
no fear and believes the Yankee
ownership should also dispel
any such bug -aboos, particu-
1arly with the likelihood of beer
coming back.

SARRON STOP
SCHWARTZ

Pete sarron, two-fisted Syrian
featherweight, pounded ancient
Benny Schwartz, of Baltimore, in
to a helpless state in seven
rounds at Portner's Arena last
night.
Sarron administered one of the
severest beatings even seen here
about to the Oriole fighter dur
ing the seven rounds the fight
lasted.
In the seventh round the
Syrian stormed all over Schwartz,
when a blow split open an old
wound over Benny's eye, and as
the Baltimorean staggered back
half blinded by blood, Charlie
Short stepped in and raised Sar-
ron's arm in token of victory.
Schwartz protested to no avail.
Jack Gentle was just a bit too
fast and hard hitting for Buddy
Grimes and took the decision
after a spirited six-round mill.
Bill Landers' fists played such
ceaseless TATTOO on Sam Ro-
mano's bread-basket that sam de-
cided to forego the rest of the
fight in the fifth heat. Stumpy
Jacobs dropped dynamite on
Benny Whittler's chin in the
fourth round while Garry Wright's
right mitt couldn't keep out of
Jack Quigley's face and easily
earned him the duke.

renewed confidence in his po-
sition. He claims that had

its economic misery as it had
before March 4. baseball might
have been seriously affected.
But as matters now stand,
with scrip about to flood the
country and with such medium
of exchange acceptable at base
ball parks, Mr.. Ruth figures
happy days are here again in
deed, and therefore Colonel
Rupert should be far more
sanguine for the future.
Ruth reasons further, and no
without logic, we would say.
"The financial picture looks

SURE
KUHEL CAN
LAST
BY GARRETT WATERS
Times staff Correspondent

BILOXI, Miss, March ga
unique experiment is being tried
out by the Griffmen this year,
starting right here with the
training grind. The team is in
the good old Southland without
a substitute first baseman-some-
thing that hasn't been the case
for the past II years-or during
Joe Judges reign as regular.
Whether this experiment works
successfully or not remains to be
seen, but the general idea can
be said to give the youngster Joe
Kuhel a great boost as the wiser
heads think enough of Joe to be-
lieve that he'll not need a substi-
tute this year or in future sea.
sons-let 'em roll around.
"The kid is the type of
player that doesn't get hurt
easily" claims President Clark
Griffith. "And because of this
Cronin and myself believe one
first baseman is enough for the
club. Also We want Joe to feel
that the job is his and his en-
tireIy at this stage of his Ca
reer, and that it'll be up to
him to deliver to stay in the
big leagues"
Reviewing Kuhel's career brief
ly, the youngster has had a tough
time of it trying to win the post
as a regular since his entrance
into the big leagues in 1880. This
has been due to the presence Of
Joe Judge, popular veteran, who
even up to the middle Of 1882
was rated as the first string first
baseman of the Griffmen.
Field to Himself
But now Kuhel has the field
all to himself, and as Griffith and
Cronin believe, should be able to
carry on throughout the season.
and many others to come-with-
out the air or presence of a sub
stitute.
The youngster, when he was
purchased from the Kansas City
club, of the American Association,
was labeled as great hitter as
we'll as a capable fielder. Since
wearing a Griff uniform Kuhel
has only shown flashes Of being
that great hitter.
Last year, however, Kansas
Joe, as he's called by his team
mates, blossomed out in excellent
fashion. Always a good fielder.
his hitting improved with every
game, and before the season ended
he was rated as one Of the most
dangerous batsman in the Griffs
lineup.
Judge Beset BY Injuries
Kuhel began getting into the
game regularly around the first
part of June when the veteran
Joe Judge was beset with in
juries. The, latter was put back
into action little later on, but
another injury hit him so hard
that Kuhel, as the substitute,
play Gu 0O WC44 O44dU ~ WOuAA 4AoNS
been downright murder to have
inserted Judge in the lineup
again.
Having started the year with
out a hit in his first Is times
at bat, Kuhel socked at a high
clip during the remaining months
of the campaign and finished
with the impressive average of
.292.
The youngster is the picture of
condition in camp today. He is
lighter than at any time before
in his career and his spirit and
pep is one of the most noticeable
of all his team mates.
The wiser heads vision nothing
but a great season ahead for the
youngster in the important days
to come.

TOXIC, April 2S.-Japan hopes event.
ually to secure control Of the Chinese
Eastern Railway and eliminate the in
fluence Of Soviet Russia in Northern
Manchuria, but is confident that it will
be unnecessary to fight or pay much for
the road.
It may take two or three years and
may be done directly or through the
government Of Manchukuo.
This is not the formally acknowledged
policy Of the Toxic government, but 1t
summarizes the informal admissions OF
oficial quarters.
The authoritative consensus is that
an armed conflict arising from the pres
ent pickering Of Russia and Manchukuo
over rolling stock and details Of railroad
management Is highly improbable.
Authoritative non-Japanese sources
here interpret this pickering as a phase
of what probably will be q protracted
campaign calculated to depress Russia S
price for surrender Of the Soviet rights
to the Chinese Eastern Railway to the
point where Japan or Manchukuo Will
be willing to buy or trade.

He expressed the opinion that Soviet
Russia Is unprepared to attempt to op-
pose by force Manchukuo's hectoring as
it did that Of Marshal Chang Hsiac-
