It was George Herman Ruth
who authorized these two sen
fences and never in all his eXcit'
ing and widely publicized career
has he said anything that SO
clearly rang the bell.
For what happened at Boston
and what is being said now is
not good for baseball. No sport
page story in a generation has
recorded so many conflicting
statement, statements that point
the finger of untruth at some
body; none has revealed so many
apparent evidence of double deal
ing and chicanery. All of it is
a black eye to baseball, doubly
discriminating because the games
most popular figure is so deeply
involved.
Becoming apparent too is that
what the Babe calls his SAY" Will
be his valedictory to baseball
He'd like to continue, is open to
offers-but today there is nothing
in sight. He's a member of the
unemployed, and no one in base
ball seems willing to extend a
helping hand.
National League officials who
decline to be quoted, say that the
league has no place for him. A
suggestion that he be appointed as
a sort of good will ambassador for
the league received a cool recep'
ton. Nor are the American Leag'
uers expressing a greater interest
Officially the responsible people
are expressing a discreet silence,
but their attitude, obviously. IS
that the Babe decided for himself
when he expected to quit the
Yankees and then he has no
further claim upon them.
What does the Babe expect TO
do about it? Nothing, he says, ex-
cept to play golf and keep IN
shape. 1 think I can play If the
chance offers.
''Maybe some thing will
break" he suggested, hopefully.
"Sure, I'd like to stay in base

stuff is out. 1 don't need the
money, and in the long rum
such a program would be harm
full.

tered a question. "Certainly-H

Judge Fuchs is out of the pic
ture. I'll never work with or
for him again"
A return to Boston isn't more
than remote possibility, OF
course, and plainly the Babe isn't
counting on it. From all appear
ances, he's taking his last bows
in the spotlight.
The last appearance is likely to
create a baseball tumult, how.
ever. The baseball authorities can
scarcely ignore the charges the
big fellow has fired at Judge
Fuchs, whom he claims has "dou.
BILE crossed" him. They demand
reply. What form the repercus.
sions will take no one can say, but
today close observers are per-
suaded that unless the Babe S
charges are satisfactorily refuted
they will compel Judge Fuchs and
possible Bill McKechnie to follow
the home run king into retire
ment.
Such an eventuality would not
be altogether dispensing to the
National League, it is limited. Thus
far the league has expressed a
hands-off attitude toward the Bos-
ton TINT party.
But the Boston clubs financial
problems, complicated by the dog
racing issue last year, has been a
UNDERSTANDING source of annoyance
to the league officials, and a new
deal at the Hub would be likely to
receive a grateful reception.

Joe Harrison is the second best,
Ollie Pacini third, Eddie Espey
fourth, Bill Kraus fifth, Tony San
TIM sixth, Hokie Smith seventh,
Joe Freschi eighth, Perez Wolfe
ninth and Ed Blakeney tenth.
Reds Megaw, Paul Harrison and
Whip Litchfield received honor
able mention.
Clarke's league average of 124-5
gained him the top post. Also
his standing of 1852 and 124-68
in special events and special av-
erages aided in his selection.

position for second honors. His
league average for the year was
1913. His special match average
was 124-79 and his special events
mark was 1878.
Ollie Pacini's consistent sweep

Sweepstakes and his noteworthy
league average of 1928, ranked

This became a certainty today
as the glamorous field of 1852 pro
fessionals and amateurs sWarmed
over the hades of Hutton testing
every feature of the course whose
par y leaves all gasping in hope.
All admit the man who can con-
sistently, or frequently, break or
even equal par stands an excel
lent chance of capturing the Open
title. But few have met with that
success.
Leo Diegel, Philadelp h a,
equalled par for the best score
yesterday while stars from near
and far concentrated on the
greens. They are unusually speedy
and, for that reason, have caused
the field to forget other hazards
of the course regarded as the most
difficult in the United States.
Vet Players Fooled
The carpets are so fast that
veteran tournament players have
been fooled as quickly as those
with less experience. It is not an
infrequent sight to see ace players
using half a dozen balls on the
green's as they try out the more
hazardous spots on the links. Al
ter giving the course a thorough
test, Olin Dutra, defending cham
pion, turned to the carpets which
were his nemesis.

he couldn't "dO a thing with my

AS for the likely winner, few
observers venture guess. How

feel that Gene Sarazen, Dutra,
Picard, Craig Wood, Sid Brews,
Paul Runyan, Johnny Revolta,
Harry Cooper, and Willie McFar-

Last of the entrants reached
the scene of the classic today and
lost little time in trying their

, While Harris IS making his
switches here and there, trying
with might and main to put q
stop to the slump of the team,
Clark Griffith is working on a
different slant. The current
Griffs can't win. That stands on
the record. They're sixth only be-
cause the Macks and Browns
won't stand for them going any
lower. Now there might be slicker
and more diplomatic ways of say
ing that, but it wouldn't improve
the ridiculous grade of ball the
team has played for the last week.
1t would not be surprising If
Clark C. Griffith managed to
make a switch or two and got a
couple of boys who could nudge
that ball with runners on bases.
Of course, he is trying to get a
pitcher who can win. They are
scarce.
George Pipgras, released by
Boston'S Red Sox, held a confer.
ence with President Griffith yes
treday, but when the local owner
wanted him to go to Albany or
Chattanooga, Pipgras withdrew
and said he would make his own
arrangements.
Bump Hadley, author of four
complete games, will face Wesley
Terrell in the pitching duel of the
afternoon. The Red Sox are three
games ahead of the GriffS, in fifth
place, and should not be too tough.
Besides, the law of averages is
working for the Griffs. They've
lost seven games in row. It's a.
cinch they can't lose 'em all any
more than you can win 'em all.
Done Him Wrong
1t seems that your meandering
agent has up and done Buck New
som wrong. This agent pro-
claimed the news to Washington
that Buck had left the George
town Hospital contrary to the
wishes, if not the orders, Of his
physician and the club author
tiles. But Buck says that he
didn't deliberately disobey orders
in refusing to rest his fractured
kneecap.
So this agent haStens to retract
the statement which grieves the
proud pitcher full sore. Buck left
the hospital, we shall say, in COM
pliance with his own wishes. The
folks at the hospital, the doctors.
Griff and everyone else wanted
him to stay there. But he was
plumb lonely for his family, and
he just went to the hotel. He
thinks he may dash out to the
ball park almost any day.
No cast can be put on his leg
because of the swelling, and the
swelling is there because Newsom
is too active. He doesn't refuse
to rest, you understand; he just
keeps moving around. Usually
when folks break leg or two,
they stay in bed.
Still, you must admit, it's his
knee, and that finishes the
matter so far as this space is
concerned.
! New Flash on huCh
George Pipgras, to refer back
to him for just a minute, losses
a new flash on the Ruth story.
It is not essentially baseball, but
is not apart from the game
either.
Last winter Pipgras, who lives
in st. Petersburg the year round.
attempted to interest the Bambino
in buying a home down there
and quitting the diamond. Babe
was in favor of the move, but
there were other considerations
that rendered this country squire
idea impractical.
you'll be hOwled out Of
baseball by rs cent wolves"
said Pipgras, land I hate to
even think of that day."
Ruth Indignantly defended the
baseball public.
They'll never give me the
razz," Stormed Ruth.
Did I hear a cynical laugh
! from you?
