Despite the fact that representa- tives of seven teams were present at the meeting of the Casper Basket pall league last night, ready to put up their cash deposit, the league faces a serious handicap in not hav- ing ® court on which to play this season. A committee is working to get the o'4 high school gymnasium two nights a week and {f this fs permitted by the school board the league is assured of success. ‘The teams which formally entered the league last night included Standard No. 3, Midwest, Texas, ‘American Legion, Methodists, Bap- tists and the Smokehouse. The league will be limited to eight teams. No attempt will be made to draw up a schedule until the league has the assurance of a court on which to hold the games.

It {s said that no other pool of water has such a magnetic attraction for the wild fowl migrating south at this time of year. It was at the club's lake, 25 miles west of Casper on the Yellowstone highway, that Jerry and Clarence ‘West, Cy Bon and W. J. Johnson bagged in no time as many ducks yesterday as the law allows. The limit {s 15 ducks to a hunter; there- fore, these four members of the Rod and Gun club brought 60 ducks home with them last night.

NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—(United Press.—Among many by the recent world's series were several that will have an important bearing on the future of baseball. It was shown beyond doubt by the interest in the series and by the mechanical part of the play that: ‘Three consecutive victories by the New York teams has not hurt base- ball; That no plant has yet been built lari enough to accommodate a world’s series crowd in New York; That Joe Dugan is the greatest third baseman in baseball; That Erin Ward ts sure to develop into the greatest second baseman; ‘That Everett Scott is not through; ‘Thét Mind, as personified by John McGraw, cannot beat Matter, as represented by the New York Yankees; That the world’s series will hardly be touched again by the black hand that upset the 1919 fight. oes Attendance records which were made by the wholesale proved that New York has not tired of seeing three championship fights in a row. The argument advanced before the world’s series that while New York might be just as interested, provinces would not be aroused by the series was also shown to be false. There was just as much tn- terest in the series outside of New York as there has ever been. eee Fifteen thousand fans were turned away from the Columbus Day game in the Yankee Stadium and police officials estimated that 50,000 fans, who had money ready to get into the Sunday game of the series, had to be turned away. When Colonels Ruppert and Hus- ton built the Yankee Stadium, with accommodations for 65,000 spec- tators, they were thought crazy ang it was sald that they would never “Hair-Groom” 1s greaseless; also helps grow thick, heavy, lustrous hair.

Colonel Jake Ruppert, who now owns the team, said after the series that he would have plans drawn to | increase the capacity of the park to | 85,000, and he felt suro that he was not making a mistake. Some wise followers of the game fear, however, that when Babe Ruth has to bow to time and set his bat aside for good that there will be no need of having such big parks. cee Joe Dugan's exhibition of third base playing was the greatest ever seen in a world’s series. Heinle Groh is the only player in baseball who approached him, and he so far outshone the work of the Giant third baseman that there was no doubt in the minds of any fan that Dugan ts tho class of them all. Dugan 3s still a young player. He has many years ahead of him and there {s no reason why he should | not get even better, if {t 1s possible for a player to be more perfect than he is now. Erin Ward, the Yankee second baseman, also rose to the rank of a real star, Writers who followed the Yankee team all season, warned |in advance that Ward would show | some real playing in the series, and |he aia. ‘The series provided some grounds |for comparing Ward and Frisch, and the Yankee star looked. the bet- jter. If Frisch went into the series {as the greatest second baseman in the game, he did not come out as such. Yankee fans found nothing that pleased them more in the series than the fine performance of the veteran, “Deacon” Scott. Always popular with the fans in New York and liked by all the ball players, the iron “Deacon” surprised everyone by the way he showed up Dave Ban- croft, considered one of the best of the shortstops, Scotty, no doubt, had heard the stories that the Yankees had paid $100,000 for Joe Boley, the Baltimore shortstop, and he set out to show his bosses that they didn't need any- lone to succeed him, There {sno doubt that the But no parlor entertainer ever undertook to get Darcova quality out of a valve cu the Darcova label.

From Papyrus the tape at Belmont Park four lengths ahead of Zev jumped to the Papyrus was ridden HENRY FARRELL, WRITER FOR TRIBUNE, PICKED ALL WINNERS Henry L, Farrell, sports editor of the United Press, was one of the few sports writers who did not pick the New York Giants to win the world’s series from the New York Yankees, fter a series of articles in which the two teams were compared, postiion by position and in which the “superiority complex” of the Giants was explained as their greatest asset, Farrell concluded the final article, which appeared in the Red Letter for release on October 9, with this prediction: The Giants, it is true, have many reasons and causes why they should win, but we do not believe they will. In a series of Red Letter articles last Aj in which he discussed the prospects of the sixteen major league clubs in the pennant races, Farrell called the turn in the National League, and he picked the one- two positions in the American League. in » Red Letter story, released for April 16, Farrell predicted that the National League clubs would finish as follows: New York, Cincinnati, Pittsburgh, St. Louis, Chicago, Brooklyn, Boston and Philadelphia. With the exception of the Cubs, who finished fourth, and the Cards, who finished fifth, Farrell picked the teams for the position in which they finished. Discussing the teams separately, in the same April 16 story, Far- rell called the turn-on the Cu however by saying: “St. Louis is put in the f! division merely because the Cards finished there last season and because Branch Rickey’s club is less ofan i Palacceeed ane the Ate The Cards look doubtful and the langerous, an won he no great surprise if Bill Kill shold get Oe Cabs “a fourth pacar ahd in the American League, Farrell predicted, in a story, released for apa Lesa eae went fini as follows: ew York, rolt, St. uis, icago, Philadel, ingtor andl Bote Ps ladelphia, Washi mn web et ‘ew York.

No one ever suspected it of him before, In all advance calculations, the mind of John McGraw is considered to be superior to that of Miller Hug- gins, but little “Hug” showed in the series that he can use his head as something other than parking plac for his cap. Huggins was bitterly criticized early in the series because he did not put on a runner on base several times for Wally Pipp, the lame first baseman and because he @id not make his athletes use some judg ment on the bases, but Huggins has | been panned for everything he has over done in New York. Another thing that was brought out in the serles was that Babe Ruth was the biggest item tn the | Yankee list of assets. Ruth didn't oust up many games, but he caused the Giants so much worry that he| didn’t have to do any terrible slugging. Big Prices Paid | For Plans That Were Never Used Sport Calendar Racing.

AUTH’S RECORD NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—(By the Associated Press.)—An analysis of the batting performances of Babe Ruth this season discloses that the big slugger compiled one of the most remarkable, if not the greatest, record in major league history, de spite the fact that he failed to lead the American league hitters and was only able to tle Cy Williams of the Phillies, for the homerun lead- ership with 41 circuit blows, 18 be- hind the world’s record he set in 1921, The complete record of the Babe, however, and the story of his versa- tile greatness—the work that earned him the crown of the most valuable American league player show him as the big star of the year. Unofficial records for the 1923 season show that Ruth participated in the entire schedule of the Yan- kees, 152 games, a record in itself for Ruth. These figures also show that he was at bat 250 official ting averagé of .394. of Ruth's work as a batsman which undoubtedly created a new major league record was the number of Another phase times he reached first base during the 1928 season.
