New York, Jan. 4.-(P,-Take an

but at least 100 games. Pitch again?
Not If he can avoid It. Quit base
ball? Never as long as there's a job
and money in it.
Babe Ruth is quite willing to dis
cuss these and other matters of per-
sonal and public interest as he makes
his plans for the new year and his
2lst season in the American League
Scaling 235, he says he Is In bet
ter shape than last spring but nc
one knows better than the Babe that
his playing days are mostly behind
him. The idea that he must soon
leave the active playing list no longer
worries him.
Far from being alarmed over the
prospect Of further downward trim
ming Of his salary. which slid from,
SIS 900 to $4,000 last year, he anti.
clpates another reduction, 50 long a.
1t Is "a reasonable cut and not
major operation
Would $4,000 or $4,000 be accept
able7 He'd rather not say until he
has heard from "Jake'-Colonel Rup-
pert. the owner of the Yankees.
Behind all this outward nonchal-
ance about the future, II indications
can be accepted for what they appear
worth, lies the idea that Babe Ruth
will manage the Yankees.
He explains quite forcefully why he
turned down q proposition by the
colonel to manage the Newark Bears
this year, demanding to know how
he could learn anything more about
baseball by going hack to the minor
leagues after 20 years in the big show.
AS to fulfilling a managerial ambi-
ton otherwise, he only says:
Il don't know about that. There 4

talk about. I'll have to wait ana see

New York, Jan. 4.-Since 1877 Wnen
Gene Tunney retired after knocking
old Tom Heeney's eyebrows down on
his chest, the heavyweight prize ring
has been largely parade Of Inland
cutters. The outlook for 1884 isn't
much more brilliant than 1t was for
the Mudville nine that day Casey
took his cuts at the empty air.
Names with which cauliflower cri-
tics have become all too familiar dur
Ing the last six years still remain In

Camera Is champion, but would you

with the heliotrope stripes that Santa
Claus brought? Max Baer must be
ranked next, and he looks to be .

Is another you just never know about.
Going on down the line through
Levinsky. Loughran, Sclaneling and
Sharkey there appear to be no sur
prises, ct least not happy ones. Lev
insky outpointed Sharkey somewhat
recently, but he also managed to lose
to Risko and Loughran in 1888.
Loughran beat Sharkey, but he too
vas licked by Risko. Risko, In turn,
lost to Patsy Perroni and Gypsy
Daniels.
OF al these the record Of schmel-
ing seems most respectable. He was
knocked out by Baer and he went
home. Give him credit at least tor
that.

The second flight offers q few
promising names, interpreted among
barnacled veterans. Four newcomers
heading the list Of second raters are
Patsy Perroni, Charlie Massera, Ray
Impellittiere and Walter Neusel.
In this strata Perroni looms as
most likely pay dirt. He hasn't been
seen much around New York, but IN
his single engagement against Nc
Corkindale he exploded Ill fears that
the heavyweight championship was
about to 60 to Africa. He has done
most Of his fighting around Cleve-
land where he is highly respected.
At least he packs q terrific wallop

lmpelNttiere has even more size
than Camera. He surprised even his
manager, Harry Lenny, when he
knocked out Jose Santa just about as
quickly - Jose Santa ever was knock
ed out. Ray has not indicated, how
ever, that he ever would acquire much
speed either with hand or foot.
Neusel Is 4 young giant from Ger
many, former amateur champion and
winner Of more than half Of his
forty odd bouts by knockouts. He
started his American career by knock
ing out Stanley Poreda and Les Ken
nedy, two better than average trial
horses.
One Of these four may change in
1894 what has been very dull pic
ture. At any rate they still must be
regarded as promising Corners,
which IS something.

the outside when newly fallen, turning to red
dish-brown In the course of time. Inside, how
ever, they differ greatly from iron meteorites
and also from one another. One common kind
looks very much like a piece Of g~rayish-white
cement, covered with a coat of black paint or,
IL 1t is an old fall, of black paint mixed with
rusty brown. Another kind is quite black inside.
Indeed, they may be almost any shade between
black and white under their outer crust.
Stony meteorites are also often pitted, but the
pits are seldom as sharply defined as they are
In the iron variety. After the surface has turned
from black to reddish-brown, 1t often looks a
good deal like the crust Of a loaf Of cracked
wheat bread, with similar little flakes scattered
over 1t. These flakes may also be seen while the
surface Is black, They are flakes Of metal.
TO see a meteorite actually crash to earth is
one of the most spectacular sights among nat
ural phenomena. One vivid description of a fall
some years ago tells us that the noise was like
heavy cannonading, accompanied by an unearth-
ly Kissing and that the ground trembled as In
an earthquake. People rushed from their houses
in fright, and though 1t was midafternoon, they
saw a great dazzling ball of fire In the heav-
ems, like to the moon In size, sputtering and
throwing of a long train OF sparks and leaving
In its wake "a heavy line of black smoke" This
meteorite fell In more than a thousand frag-
ments near Forest City, Iowa. One piece, weigh
ing SO pounds, fell near a farmer In a field and
buried itself more than three feet In the hard
prairie soil.
Hardly a year passes without a fall somewhere
In the United States, witnessed by persons who
testify to its splendor and frightening aspect.
Fortunately, however, we have never been Wis
tied by a meteorite such as fell on the isolated
steppes of north-central Siberia In 1908. The
force of the air, blasting out from 1t, moved
fiat more than seven hundred square miles of
dense forest. 1t killed a herd Of 1,500 reindeer,
and forced a train, 400 miles south, to stop In
order to keep on the rails. A Russian farmer,
so miles away, was knocked unconscious and re-
turned to his senses to find the air so hot that
he feared his clothes would catch fire. His house
was demolished.
This great mass of iron, buried deep In the
ground, is stimat to weigh 10000 tons: but
1t Is mall indeed when compared to another
mass that fell on the desert plains near Win
slow, Ariz., In a time before the white men came
there. This enormous meteorite, which bored its
way more than 1900 feet into the earth, is
known to weigh several million tons. 1t left
behind 1t a crater almost one mile across and
nearly 600 feet deep. as 1t appears today.
Many other tremendous falls have happened
since the world began. No doubt, IL we were to
explore the bottoms of the oceans, we would
find hundreds of great masses of stone and iron
buried In the slime. Other great masses are
buried beneath our feet, and the craters which

she seems to have made slave of Professor Martin, 37 years old, plodding. studious, solitary. Thus they account for the charge that Lydia held his devotion for ten years at price which if current accusations are sustained, meant the sacrifice of his patriotism and the danger and odium of high treason.
 The story of Lydia Stahl is a fascinating one. all the more 50 because the key to 1t seems to be missing. Perhaps 1t is this which the current investigation-expect- ed to last at least four months will discover.
 She was born Lydia Tchekaloff, daughter of well-to-do parents, at Rostoff- on-the-Don in Russia in Nov. 12, 1885. Passing through secondary schools there, she came to France around 1905. Shortly be- fore the war she married Boris Stahl at the famous Russian church in Paris, spending summer holidays In Sebastopol, his family home. Eight years later, she divorced him in Russia and returned to France.
 Meanwhile. during the war. she spent a long time in Helsingfors, and there she met the celebrated Vera Hambon, now being ques- toned on spy charges in Finland. She returned to Finland in 1927. Presently, she turned up in New York, studying at Columbia. Boris was there and they met. She was with another mysterious Scandi- navian.

VILLAGE SMITHY

Modern Blacksmith Goes

Philadelphia-(UP) = The vil- lage blacksmith has deserted "the spreading chestnut tree," and the result is that business is booming.
 Instead of shop where the farmers drive up and gossip while the smithy goes about his work, the modern blacksmith has an au- tomobile and a telephone, and like the country doctor, goes out to sec hij patients" rather than wait for business to come to him.
 Frank Sevison, veteran black smith here. is typical example. He has q blacksmith shop. but if Is deserted most of the time. Sev- ison travels from farm to farm daily.
 "Business is on the increase" Inc said. Tt seems strange, with few horses on the road, but 1t Is a fact, The farmers won't drive the horses on the roads, but they use them in the fields, and they want the blacksmith to come to them instea q of driving their horses tO him.
