Is a slugging batsman who can hit bome runs more valuable than a star pitcher who €an win a majority of his games? In asure that question wax answered five or six years ago by Ed Barrows, who was,.then manag- ing the Boston team of the Ameri- can League. At that time Babe Ruth was gen- in the Johnsonion organization. | He could be depended upon to win at least 20 games 4 season, All of a sudden Ruth began to show sn inclination to hit home runs. ‘The inejination grew until Ruth beeame the most feared bats-| man in the American League. His ebility to hit home runs began to adow his pitching. Fans Revel in Homers. fans enthused much more The when Ruth broke, up a ball game by hitting a home run with a couple on than when he scored a shutout. That feeling Of the part of fandom cau t ed Manager Barrows to do some 1 thinking, Would it be advisable to use Ruth every day as an out- fielder and add his home-run pugeh to the strength of the team or use} him every fourth day as a pitcher? Barrows decided that Ruth, the best left hander in th® American! should forgét his pitching snd become Ruth the slugging out- fielder. ‘A great many people ridiculed he idea. . They thought Barrows was making a huge mistake in spoiling 2 great pitcher for an uncertainty ag an outfielder and hitter. Ruth Delivered Goods. 1m the case of Ruth, Barrows was right. Babe soon became ‘the bat- ting sensation of the country.

York Giants purchases Jack Bentley, the “Babe Ruth” of the minors. Bentley is a ctack left-handed pitcher, best known for his ability to hit home runs. His case is ex- similar to that of Ruth when he was with Boston. ~ Where will McGraw use Bentley, as a pitcher or first baseman? Will Pitch for Giante. McGraw has already gone on zee- erd as saying that Bentley would be a member of the Giants’ pitching staff. ‘If such is the case it is a certainty that he will also play the role of pinch hitter when not on the zubber. ( Jack Dunn, bwner and manager of the Baltimore team, who sold Bent- ley to the Giants, never could reach ‘a decision in Bentley's case. As a zesult he had Bentley playing first when not pitching, Last season Bentley took part in 53 games. He made 206 hits for 153. an average of .349. ibe ot “the hits were home runs. ‘As a pitcher he worked in’ 14 games, winning 13. The only defeat he suffered was at the hands of the Rochester, club. Years ago Bentley received a trial with the Washington club but was lct out. In 1917 the Beston Red Sox drafted him but he entered the mili- tary service and was never taken Two New Umpires Join American League | By NEA. Service, Chicago, Ill. Nov. 10—The sign- ing of two new umpires by President Johnson of the American League is an indication that he intends to shake up the personnel of his staff. The two new men signed are “Red” Ormsby and “Ducky” Holmes. Both men umpired in the Western League last year and gave excellent satis- faction in that circuit.

When his playing days were ended because of an injury he took'tg um- viring. Holmes has worked in 2 number af minor leagues, among them bein the American Association.

President Heydler of the National League says there will be at least two new men on his-staff. A num ber ‘of umpires were tried out by him near the close of the season. Good umpires apear to be much harder to land than’ star ball tlayers. Coast Experts Pick Kamm To Star With" Chicago Coast League players are confident tha illie. Kamm will be a sensa- tion in the American League in 1923. Kamm, it will be remembered, is the player for whom Chicago paid something like $100,000 and. gave three pitchers, Hodge, Courtney and McWeeny. Kamm is a third baseman, and if he is nearly as good as-his advance notices, will play the position for the Sox, suplanting Mulligan and McClellan, who divided the time around the difficult corner in 1922. Frank Chance. says there is no question vbout’ Kamm’s _ fielding. There is a slight doubt.as to his hit- ting, according to Chance. How- ever, he figures Kamm will prove so valuable afield that he will be a great player in the American League if only able to hit around 260. Ascar” Vitt, a mighty good ‘third baseman, who has seen much serv- iee in the Am an League but who is now playitig on the coast, is strong for Kamm. : “Kamm is a big leaguer right now. He doesn’t need a bit of ex- perience to polish him off. He will e good, from the opening game,” | Vitt, Umpire George Hildebrand of thy American League staff, who lives in San Francisco-and. has often seen Kamm play, is another strong booster for the youngster. “Kamm is one ‘of the most won- derful fielders I have .ever seen,” cays Hildebrand. “When he goes after a ball you are only ‘surprisdd when he fails to get-it. He makes the most difficult kind of chances look easy.” All of which ma Comiskey is to get worth out of Kamm. it soem,that his méney’s The custom of wearing rings up- on the thumb prevaiied in England until the close of the eighteenth century. é ins. midfield that |= X | gains. nothing cannot hold any thrill. ‘The same play resulting in a touch- cown carries the ¢hrill of the game. tt all depends.” Regarding the most intense play: “When your team is kicking from behind its own goal line you have football’s most intense playe “As the teams line up for the punt end_you have in mind all the possi- bilities and the disastrous results of a blocked punt, you get about as much, intensity anything in rt3 can furnish.” as Getting the “Breaks” ‘ Jn Football “Bo” McMillan Discusses That Impertant Feature of The Game —- BY “BO” MecMILLIN, All-America Quarterback.
