TODANS SPORT s.PAEADE h&Ak'TRa939AND
BY THEON WRIGHT United Press Staff Correspondent

New York. Aug 11-(U.PD-Any ball club lacking a manager. and desiring the services of one who is well seasoned. getting along in years but willing to do an extra chore at bat when pinch -hitters run out, may acquire same by dropping line to G. Ruth, care of the New York Yankees.
 References, if desired, may be had by glancing over the batting figures in any baseball book from 1920 onward, with particular att tention paid to the statistics on balls battcd over the fence or into bleachers.
 Mrs G. Ruth broke down and confessed before witnesses that his underpinnings are not what they used to be, and arc too creaky to hold up much longer. His knees get wobbly when he pumps around the bases, and if the ball doesn't happen to clear the fcnce-why, it's a single. and that's that. MT Ruth doesn't try to stretch them any more.
 The ban is completing his twen- ty-first season in the big leagues. That would be long time as night watchman, but when 1t involves all the heavy duty hitting that has come under Babes supervision. as well as the fly chasing and base jogging, not to mention about thirty miles of free walking 10 first base, it measures up to quite a stint.
 The spring of 1920 saw the we'll known figure of MT Ruth hunched on the bench at the Yankee hutch at the Stadium for the first time. It was less sizcable figure than it is now-never what you would call slim -waisted. however. At present MT Ruth looks like an egg on toothpicks.
 Many a ball has been hoisted over right field walls since that spring day. Jack Dempsey and Bill Tilden, just rising to the top of the wave. came and went Helen Moody, nee Wills, appeared on the scene three years later and went away year ago.
 Ruth's day goes back much fur ther, of coursc-back to 1914. In 1916 he achieved public notice by pitching Boston to a 2-1 victory over Sherrod Smith of the Dodgers in a world series game. But it was the puHCH. not thS PitSH, thoe made the Babe.
 Squatting on the bench at Fen way park. he admitted he was about ready to fold up. He also revealed the extent of his secret ambitions:
 "Pd like to tie up with some club as manager-maybe do lit- tie pinch hitting on Saturdays and Sundays"
 That's good stuff. A young fel- low getting his start should be ann bilious. Maybe the Babe could get a clause in his contract giving him a cut on the gate-providing he'd be willing to do a bit of barking for the hot dog concession on week days when the club was playing Cincinnati or the White Sox.

With the regular league season drawing to a fast finish, and the Tribunes on top of the heap des- pite a flock of happenings aimed to dislodge them, all that now re- mains for the boys from the low CT Abrigador to do is beat their neighborhood rivals the Hills, fol- low up with a win against the Brooklyns and the championship is right in the cooler. However. should they lose to the Hills to- morrow, and the Hearts come through against the Thomas Club as is expected, triple tie would be created, according to statisti- clans, which will provide the hot test finish in years of activity with in the City Amateur League.
 Earl Selenske, on the strength of his work last Sunday against the Tommies, will probably draw the starting assignment for the Tribes, while it is a foregone conclusien that hustling Joe Strokalaitis Will be on the hill for the Hills, when the Tribes first come to bat. After that it's up to the team sluggers, and in that department, the lead CTS have an edge.
 The Brooklyn A. c. which has come along nicely after terrible start. has another easy number in the Recreations, a team that hep ped up too soon from the Public Parks League. The Hearts and Tommies may provide more than little excitement during their 2 o'clock tussle. with base-hits ex- pccted obe plentiful.

Hooking is an art, and the soon- CT it is learned the easier it will be for the golfer to get better understanding of shot making. To hook a ball, the right foot should be drawn back from the line of flight so that the club can be easily swung from the inside.
 The right hand should be well under the shaft and the left on top. The ball should be played from a position closer to the right foot than normally.
 As the ball is struck there should be roll of the hands from right to left giving the ball the necessary hook spin.
