SLUGGING MARKS
RATE GREENbERG
ACE RUN-DR|VER
BY LAWTON CARTER

NEW YORK, Dec. 16 UN.S).
One or two more Hank Greenbergs
and the Detroit Tigers, instead Of
the New York Yankees, would have
won the American League pennant
last season, official averages re-
leased today show.
In the most important matter Of
driving runners across the plate,
the powerful slugger from the
Bronx of New York was No. and
came within a single run of tying
the all-time record set by Lou
Gehrig, of the Yankees, in 1881.
The Tigers wound up in second
place in the league standings, but
because of no fault of Green.
berg's, for he was a tremendous
factor on the offensive all season,
and better than a fair hand at
f1rst-baSing. He drove in no fewer
than 1873 mates.
He also hit 40 home runs to
finish just behind Joe DiMaggio
of the Yankees, who took the home
run title with 46 and was high up
among the leaders in other re.
SpectS.
However, despite Greenberg's
authoritative slugging, answer to
the Yankees success probably can
be found in the fact that DiMag-
gio with 1877 runs batted in, Gehrig
with 159 and Bill Dickey with 1873,
gave the ultimate world cham
pions an attack unequaled in the
circuit. =

Yankees and all the rest had to
do was contrive somehow to get

suspiciously like they come from
those not a thousand miles
from the inner councils of the
game.
These are invariably the most
violently anti-Babe. They ad-
wise me to get wise to myself,
tend to my own business, IN
sist that I know that Ruth has
the mind of 10-year-old child,
etc, etc.
It is my conviction that Ruth
not only did more for baseball
than any other individual OF
our times, but also for ball
players.
That's what Fresco Thomp-
son, an ex-major Lacquer OF the
Ruth era, thinks, too. He writes
the following letter, which, since
the Babes still out in the cold,
I'm pleased to call Ruth Al
Fresco."
This is what he has to say:
MY Dear Mr.. Corum: I
read OF your little tete-a-tete
with Babe Rutli with a heap OF
interest. We, of the national
pastime, owe the big fellow a
great deal for the cash and
publicity he brought to it. At
the same time. he owes the old
game a lot as those healthy
annuities will testify. His If l
can't have my way I'll take my
dolls and go home attitude
won't put him on the third
base line.
Don't throw this away yet,
Bill, as I am not going to be-
little Ruth. Not that it would
annoy you or him if a semi like
myself had such a screWy idea.
Every ball-gamer who was lucky
enough to perform in the golden
era of Babes heyday owes him
a lifelong debt of gratitude.
was one of these fortunate play
ers, and am not likely to forget
what he did for me. If most
of it did go over the pike to
those jugglers in Wall Street, 1
am thankful to him for letting
me hold it for a while.
The Babes 10000 was the
criterion by which his support
ing cast was paid. Each player
received several extra dollars be-
cause the 'Bambino' was pow

VIRGINIA REGULATIONS

County regulations end the rab-
bit, squirrel and quail season on
December 81, January Is and jan
uary 81, in various Virginia coun-
ties. The barriers fall in neigh
boring Fairfax, Culpeper, Arling-
ton, and Prince william counties
on December 81.
We mention rabbit, squirrel and
quail and, of course, duck, because
that seems to be the only game
which is scampering or fluttering
around in large enough quantities
for one to fear overShooting the
bag limit in case the good old
dead-eye is in top working condi-
ton.
Down around the North Car
olina-Virginia border and in the
Dismal Swamp occasional deer
are flushed and ever and anon a
bear, but not frequently enough
for you to prepare a narrowing
tale of narrow escape and final
triumph.
Our operative from Richmond
and Essex counties reports fine
turnouts Of rabbit, squirrel and
quail HI: not much on the duck
line as far as the Rappahannock
is concerned Ducks are fairly
numerous along the Potomac, they
say. This same operative states
that st. Mary'S county, in Mary
land, is we'll primed with rabbit
and quail, but shy on squirrel.
DOG HURTS LEG
Ingraham Streets chief MINI
rod, Dick Watson, is handicapped
considerably in that his dog, Spot,
badly cut her leg on a barbed wire
fence on her first hunting trip last
month and is hors de combat at
present and, possibly, for the sea-
son.
Frank Wilson and Harry and
Bernard Sellers returned from
Burkeville, Va, with a weekend
catch of one turkey, 16 rabbits and
II quails. Rabbits are plentiful,
they state.
Two groups Of D. C. hunters shot
five deer near Asheville, N. c. One
party had two deer and the other
two deer and a doe.
Bob Burdette has two duck
blinds near Lorton, Va, where
hunters get bag limits almost
daily.

! tackle, PerrOn shoemaker, al
right end; Victor Bradford, at
quarter; Joe Kilgrow, at left half;
George Zivich, at right half, and
Charles Holm, at fullback.
This team, a bit lighter than
average Alabama elevenS, has
speed, aggressiVeneSS, exceptional
backfield talent, good ends, a fine
line and all the vigorous qualities
of a championship aggregation.
LINE WINS OR LOSES
AS all football men know, the
line wins or loses football games.
Occasionally, an individual per
former, or a pair of performers,
or small group, will pull a game
out of the fire. However, for our
purposes in discussing the coming
Rose Bowl game, we must abide
by the definite assertion at the
beginning of this paragraph.
The Rose Bowl game probably
will be a battle of lines.
CALIFORNIA; line is bigger than
Alabama's and Henry Hank"
Crisp, who coaches the 'Bama
forward wall. must find ways and
means of overcoming this Bear
advantage. Hank" undoubtedly
will. He can start-as a matter
of fact, has started-with his
tackles.
KEY DEFENSE MEN
The tackles in football are the
key men of the defense. Alabama'S
two tackles primarily are defensive
players. AS individuals, they are
players of initiative - the sort
you'll nearly always find on a
championship collegiate eleven.
Under Crisp, they have blossomed
as top performers.
They're mentally alert, clever,
agile, know all the tricks and,
what's really important, hold the
respect and confidence of their
mates. They are finished products.
California will find it anything
but a simple task to outplay Jim
Ryba and Walter Merrill.
On defense, Alabama varies
from the regulation 6-2-2-1 to
5-3-2-1, depending on the posi-
tion of the ball, down and other
conditions.
Alabama, contrary to what
many think, goes in for sound
fundamental football first, and
for fineSse only after the coaches
are certain their team has mas
tered every phase of sound rudi-
mentary football. The observa-
ton at Tuscaloosa is:
plain orchard fruit first, hot
house stuff afterward."
LINE IMPROVES
The two guards of the Tide lend
themselves admirably to a mobile
defense, primarily because they
are extremely fast for linemen
unusually agile and quick, aggres
Sive almost to the point of pugnac'
ity and quick to diagnose plays OF
the enemy. Their defensive
charge, probably not so stout as
that of their bigger California op
ponentS, nevertheless is efficacious
