The Swat King was encountered
as he returned to the club house
at the jungle Golf Club after an
18-hole round.
He was perspiring freely and
five days Of Florida sun had re-
placed the pallor Of a recent ILL.,
ness with a glow Of health.
Haven't heard anything Of
them," said Ruth. "How can (
say anything about something I
know nothing about?
"I've signed with the YankS,
and that's all there should be to
the story"
Earlier this week the San Fran.
cisco Club offered to borrow Ruth
from the YankS and pay his $35,
900 salary. The offer was in.
spired, it was announced, by the
fear that Ruth's health might not
permit him to stand the rigorS Of
early spring games in the East.
But the Babe is far from feeble
looking. He is playing SO holes Of
golf daily, and just ask any golfer
what that takes. He has regained
all his lost weight.

Tad's ex-office boy. court Jester
and friend died q few months
back under distressing circum-
stances. He left a widow and
two small children, and no more
money than newspaper men
habitually have, which wasn't
much. His name was Walter
Hudson but he was better known
as "Gunboat" or just ''The Gun
ner." At the time of his death
he was a member Of the sports
staff Of the Daily Mirror.
His sports editor, Dan Parker,
and others already have done a
fine job toward taking care Of
of his widow and two youngsters.

me you could comb the entire

is exactly what was done to insure
this tournament Of success.

Carey Him Back to Old

team for the coming season. The
dope has It that Carey will be
succeeded by Marty McManuS, an
old st. Louis boy who almost made
good in Boston. # Marty really
winds up with the job, the official
lineup Of the Brooklyn club from
top to bottom will read: McKeever
to Quinn to McManuS.
How'd you like to have Cohen's
chance of making the team?
OF course, Carey has a contract
for 1884, but It looks as though 1t
might be Just one Of those air

None Of the well-known Makes
Of sport got such nice valentines
yesterday. Max. Carey again read
in the papers where he was on the
Skids. Max Schmeling still was
pondering over some bad news he
got the night before in PhiladeL
phia. Only Max Baer had a rou-
tine day. He was only sued Tor
breach Of promise once.
Now that he has beaten Schmel-
ing. the former heavyweight
champion, everybody wants Steve
HamaS.. Penn State may even
start negotiations toward having
him come back and play football
This column sympathizes with
Herr Schmeling, but can't resist
the temptation to say that for
years it has been pointing out
relative to his fighting that no.
body ever was killed with a cooked
gun.
Loaded for Bear
Max shuffled through is rounds
Of his second fight with Sharkey
with his right loaded for bear,
and it still was loaded when the
tinekeeper'S watch ran out on
him. He wouldn't fire it.
The Germans chief, almost his
only, fighting weapon is that
right hand. thought in view Of
the Baer disaster that he would
come out chucking it in all di-
rections against Hamas and, there.
fore, that he probably would win.
He did neither.
I believe now that he lacks the
coordination of mind and muscle
ever to do much damage with
the hand unless the other fellow
is tired and slowed down to a
walk. If that is true the sooner
he quits the better for him, be
cause the dynamite in that right
Is all he haS-aIl he ever had.
Without it, he is a slow, plodding
and inept fighter.

But there. We have somehow

Brooklyn Club is not likely to ask
him to quit.
It'll just sit there and wait for
him to resign. After which the
management, with tears in its eyes
but chuckles in its throat, will say
to the press:
'It is with deep regret that
the club owners have learned Of
Mr.. Carey's determination to
resign because Of pressing busi-
ness at his tailOr's. He will be
succeeded by Martin McManus."
But, hear you asking yourself,
If they feel that way about it,
why not give him the exit gate
without his asking for it? What
difference is there whether he is
fired or quits?

will be replaced. OF the total 80

number will be used to enforce both
the beer act and regulatory laws
It was estimated that by consolidat-
ing the beer commission with the
regulatory department a saving of
approximately 5000 q month will be
effected in the beer department
alone. Employment Of beer inspectors
and numerous regulatory department

Of considerable political controversy,

planned. Their work can and will
Be readily done by inspectors Tor the
