Correspondent) NEW ¥ORK, Oct. ~ 20.—Beginning with the year 1930, professional bage- ball should have a batting renaissanee. At just about that time the uninten- tional tutoring of Babe Ruth will be- gin to show its effect on the American youth. Kids now at the impressionable age will be beginning to break into hox scores of professional baseball amd ‘thy cards say that’ © flock of pitchers will begin to yell for a ball a trifle less live- ly. Owners of clubs, too, will favor legislation to keep a flock of pellets from leaving the grounds every day. Something new in the way of batting achievements will have to be invented, probably, because home runs should be @§ common then as vrdinary hits are now. The reason for this dip into prophecy naturally is that everywhere is this broad—except pérhaps mentally—land, the ten year old kid is imitating Babe Ruth, They've got his swing, his “stance” and even his “waggle.’! Just as a caddy develops into a star golfer, simply tHrough conscious or un- conscious imitation of the star drivers and putters he serves, so are the kids of today. going to pick up some of Babe's home run methods. Of course Babe is unusually adapted to heavy clouting, but it is generally admitted that his swing and “follow through” help a lot in gaining distance. No one is more apt in, acquiring the ‘cunning of a star than the ten-year- ‘eld boy. ) Baseball players just starting thei: eareer should avoid becoming pitchers. TA just a few more years the mounds- men ‘will be getting their bumps. pat ks Tebearadie Roller skates were invented in 1$35 The finest ofl for watches and d cate machinery is obtained from jaw of the porpoise, and costs from $50 } to $100 a gallon. ost Telephone 1509, Republican Head- quarters, for auto to take you to regis- TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY housewa ea; family of 16 ber 1st. exceptions.
