THINKS RUTH MAY
BEAT HOMERMARK
Hornsby Says There Are 5
N. L. Parks Where Babe
Should Thrive.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
w YEST PALM BEACH, Fla,
M March 12-This one may
v Y make you gasp, but Rogers
Hornsby, who knows some
thing more than country hand
about hitting, thinks Babe Ruth may
break his home run record in the
National League this season.
Sounds silly, doesn't it, with the
Yankees kissing him good-by with
dry eyes and the rest of the American
League not able to use him?" de-
mands the Rajah, who is figuring this
year on comeback of his own.
But wait and see The Babe can
60 on for at least one more good year
in the Braves outfield," he says, "he
can play 1876 games or I'm crazy, and
if you think that big guy still isn't
a curly wolf at the plate, let's see
you tell a pitcher what to throw at
him.
Calls Success Deserved.
""HERE are five parks in the Ma
tional League where they'll be
lucky if they ever get the Babe
out. He'll bunt out of that orange
crate in Philadelphia. He's hit flies
first baSemen caught in American
League parks that will be home runs
in the Polo Grounds. Maybe it's
funny, but with the inspiration he's
got, the fresh start, / think he can
break his old record. For me I'd like
TO see him hit 100 home runs. He's
made base ball for the rest of U.s."
In more ways than a few, the
careers of Hornsby and Ruth. great
est hitterS of their leagues when the
Cardinals and Yankees were world
series rivals, run parallel this season.
They've sWapped leagues since their
greatest playing days, Ruth shifting
to the National where Hornsby ruled,
the Rajah now in the American
League, the Babes oyster for 20 years,
managing the st. Louis Browns.
Each is making comeback, the
Babe as something of veteran rookie
with the Braves; Hornsby as a player
with the Browns because he desper-
ately needs hitting strength in his

TANKS RUST

Because no more money existed
after December 81, 1884, for
operation of the $50 tanks now
stationed at Fort Meade, Md,
Col. John Brewer, commanding
officer there, is in a quandary.
without gasoline or oil to run
the tanks, Colonel Brewer is not
only unable to train his men but
must sit and watch the rust of
decay gradually put them out of
commission. The only precau-
tionS he has been able to take
were covering them with cosmo-
line and red lead, and moving
few under sheds.
The machines-the best Ameri-
ca could offer if war occurred
today-are 1919 models that were
rushed to completion just as the
World War drew to a close.
While Secretary Of War Dern
explains to Congress the need of
modernization for the Army
which would require $405, 900 900,
the Thirty-fourth Infantry and

Whether the commissioners may

WHEAT INJURED
BY WESTERN
DUST STORM

KANSAS CITY, Mo-, April IL
O.N.S0.-One Of the most severe
dust storms in the history Of the
Southwest plains area receded
eastward today, its path marked
by serious crop destruction and
human suffering in a half-dozen
States.
While the clouds of choking
dust reached as far east as the
Ohio Valley and south into Missis-
sippi, Louisiana and Tennessee,
the damage from yesterdays
storm was the greatest in south
western Kansas, the Texas Pan
handle, southeastern Colorado
and northwestern Oklahoma.
Wheat Destroyed
Wheat, the pay CROP of the
Southwest, suffered irreparable
loss, surveys showed. Most of
Oklahoma's best wheat crop has
been destroyed, according to Harry
B. Cordell, president of the State
board of agriculture. An $4,000.
900 wheat crop loss was reported
in estimates from the Texas Pan
handle. Severe losses occurred
in Kansas, where the wheat crop
was estimated at At per cent of
normal.
Normal activities were sus-
pended in parts Of Kansas, Colo
RADIO and Texas while the billow-
ing clouds halted traffic and
limited visibility to a few hundred
feet. Residents Of many darkened
communities resorted to dust
masks as a protection for their
lungs. At Austin, Tex, State
senators conducted session
wearing masks.
Schools Closed
Schools remained closed in the
western Kansas storm area, and
the threat of "dust pneumonia :"
kept the schools closed in sections
Of Arkansas.
The storm served to accelerate
an exodus Of families from the
marginal lands Of Oklahoma, New
Mexico and one county in Kansas.
Recurring dust storms have driven
100 families from Texas county,
Oklahoma, in the last month to
search for homes elsewhere.
Rain and snow served to quell
the rampaging dust in western
Iowa, Nebraska and parts of Colo
RADIO yesterday. Crops in the
Northwestern States likewise had
beneficial rains.
Trains Resume Runs
In the area about Garden City,
Kan, kept in total darkness for
48 hours while the dust storm
ragged, schools remained closed to,
day but railroad and trans.
continental bus lines were grad
ually resuming regular schedules.
It was so dark in the middle of
the day throughout much of the
storm area it was impossible for
residents of towns to see across
the streets. Pedestrians caught in
the storm CROPPED their way,
guided principally by street lights
and porch lights.
