Baseball Doesn’t Want Ruth, So He Goes to Yank Camp on Owj
SULTAN SAYS RUPPERT
CLUB QUIT ON HIM
BY HARRY GRAYSON
. (Sports Editor, NEA Service)
| NEW YORK-—Baseball no long
ér wants George Herman Ruth, buy
George Herman Ruth wants bases
ball, g 0 he's headin’ south to sit
on the sidelines for the first time
in 23 years.
The more you think of it, the
stranger it seems that baseball
denies a place to Ruth, the man
who did nmore for it than any oth
¢r individual.
« Ruth’s proudest possession is an
original of a cartoon drawn while
hig mighty bat was making the
public forget the Black Sox un
pleasantness of 1919 and ’2O.
It depicts the sunshine of the
Babe's brilliance and honesty dis
pelling the black cloud that en
shrouded' the mame following the
Cfitmgo scandal. It hangs with
many other mementos of the ola
home run king’s remarkable ca
reer in the den of his magnificeny
14-room apartment overiooklngi
Grant’s Tomb and the Hudson. |
'Ruth points to it, and says:]
“Baseball owners arve a forgetful
36_!."
~ There iz no real bitterness in
Mth'p heart, Babe was keemyl
disappointed at being unable to
land a managerial appointment.
The Bam rightfully felt that nel
was entitled to the opportunity.

Whkey at the helm of the Yan-f
kees, yet refused the man who
made possible the erection of the

On Final Touches for

. The Athens High schoo; boys
basketball squad this afternoon
began putting on final touches for
the opening of the new year's cam
paign with two games this week

"~ ¥Friday night the Classic City
quintet will invade ‘Washington,
returning home to face Dacula on
the local floor Saturdav. The Ath
ens-Washington battle wil} be the
first meeting of the season be

cula has played Athens once dur
ing the current campaign, the
Maroons coming out on the small
end of a 26-13 score,
The Maroons completed a week
of hard practice last Saturday af
ternoon with a long scrimmage in
the high school gym, which saw
the squad show a some-what im
proyed form after severaj previous
bad performances.
" A team of Robert Horne and
Jack Reid forwards, Robert Hodg
son center, and Raymond Mitchell
and Rudy Guest guards looked ef
fective at times against a quintet
that lined up with John Whoods
and Harold Chandler at forwards,
Jack McDonald at center, and
Marion Wilkes and Jimmy Hud
son at the guard posts.
. The return of Hudson, who has
peen spending the Christmas hol-
Qfidys in Florida and was not ex
pected to report out until today,
should help strengthen the squad.
Hudson played a regular guard

Kearns is flat broke, but he is

dime has slipped away. « . . Dock
always was known as a good
spender, but most of his roll went
in bad real estate investments . . .
however, he's sure Hank Bath will
be heavyweight champion of the
world some day and then he fig
ures he'l] get it all back.
After the famous Dempsey -
Kearns split, brought about by
Kearns opposition to Jack's marri
age to Hstelle Taylor, Kearns

he bobbed up to pilot Mickey

Past Year Was Success For |
American Loop--President
Harridge Says Players in
League Were Outstand
ing During Past Season.
(This is the third of a se
ries written especially for the
Associated Press by national ~
gports leaders on results of
1935 and the outlook for
1936).
S ————
By WILL HARRIDGE ‘
(President, The American League)
CHICAGO.—(P)—We Americani
leaguers well can be proud of our
players during 1935, for they not
only won the All-Star game for
the third time but also were tri
umphant in the World Series
when the Detroit Tigers vanquish
ed the Chicago Cubs in six
games.
The Tigers did not look like
champions in the spring. In fact,
it seemed as if New York, Chi
cago or Cleveland would finish in
front, but, Detroit, after a very
poor start, settled down and grad
ually overcame the lead owned by
four of their rivals, finally going
to the front and remaining there,
« Lirago, after a most spectacu-
Jar spurt at the outset of the
season, again experienced the bad
luck that beset the White Sox in
1934, and, with most of their
regulars being injured at one
time or another, slipped down tu
fifth place. Cleveland was handi
capped because of accidents, while
New York lacked its suspected
strength in pitching. Boston had
its troubles in its infield and those
two veterans, Grove and Ferrell,
pitching sensationally, could not
bring the Red Sox home in bet
ter than fourth place.
There were numerous incidents
which made the American league
season of 1935 one to be remem
bered.
f.ou Gehrig stretched his string
of consecutive games to 1,653.
Vernon Kennedy, rookie White
Sox picther, pitched a no-hit
zamo against Cleveland.
Roger Cramer of Philadelphia
made six hits in six times at
bat, being the first American lea
gue batsman to do so twice.
Ted Lyons of Chicago became
the first pitcher ever to make two
two-base hits in an inning.
Buddy Myer of Washington won
the batting championship from
Joe Vosmik of Cleveland on the
very last day of the season.
To temper our joy over the
victory of Detroit in the World
Series there was the tremendous
loss to the American league oc
casioned by the death of Frank
J. Navin, president and hali
!nwner of the Tigers and vice
president of the league. With his
passing, Walter O. Briggs, na
i tionally known manufacturer, " be
came sole owner of the Detroit
{ club, while Colonel Jacob Rup
| pert, owner of the New York
| Yankees, became vice-president of
ilhe league. %
l To forcast. the season’s race
several months in advance is a
lmost difficult task. Naturally, the
question is: “What club or clubs
can prevent Detroit from winning
its third consecutive +pennant?”
IHOW can I make such a predic
'tion at this time when we do not
iknpw how the eight clubs wiil
Ishape up at the start of the sea
son
A few trades or deals already
have been made. Boston has
bought Jimmie Foxx, great bats
man, and John Marcum, Philadel
phia’s best pitcher. Detroit has
bought Outfieilder Al Simmons.
Other trades are, no doubt, in
contemplation, which may change

The effect was electrifying!
Smokers by thousands took us

Tobacco must please, or you've

Could anything be fairer?
Choicest, top-quality tobac

themselves, organized baseball and
the boys of the country to sponsor
numerous schools”, Sisler said.
“You hear every year about the
shortage of material and how this
club and that club has plenty of

HE'S ROLLING ONE NOW: Hugh Clingman’s time is
10 seconds. How does your rolling speed compare with his?
Prince Albert is “crimp cut”
for easy rolling and slow, cool
burning. Mild, mellow flavor
is assured by our special “bite
removing” process. Prince Al
bert is packed right — in tin.
No bother-no waste. Tobacco
keeps in prime condition.
And you get real money-in
the-bank economy too. There’s
tobacco for around 70 ciga
rettes crowded into every big
red 2-ounce tin. .
Remember that it is Prince
Albe:t which makes the fair
and square NO-RISK offer.
And there are 2 full ounces in
every tin of Prince Albert. So
start rolling P. A. today! It’s
a mighty neighborly smoke in
a pi‘pe too.

WASHINGTON —(#P)_—. Repres

“it is absolutely essential that the
same be amended to guarantee to
the small crop producer a more

The Georgian disclosed his plans
“to propose an amendment, if the
act is held constitutional, giving
each producer not less than three
bales per plow.”
