NEW YORK, Feb. 7.—A decision which may mean the retirement of William T.

The association passed the player- writer rule recommended by {ts com- mittes, of which “Big Bill? was a member Henceforth championship matches rr players in national | and Davis cup write for newspapers and magazines, talk over the radio or appear in motion pictures, but not use their titles in any of onnection: ed from reporting a tournament in which they are tak- ing part After the association’s action, Tilden said he did not know how it would affect him The national champion and back- bone of the American Davis cup team is writing for a syndicate, using his name and titles. All will depend upon demands made upon Tilden by his publishers. If he is not released frome inde- pendent contracts, “Big Bill" prob- ably will retire from the game in which he has for several years stood out as the world’s greatest player. The chances are that Tilden, at any rate, will appear < in the national men’s singles and the Davis cup ma 8, and if the con- fict between his playing and writ ng is too great, will retire en: i from competition under the us.

The Babe was up at his farm at Sudbury, Mass., this winter, working on the wocdpile ad doing other chores calculated to keep a man’s weight down, but despite that fact, he took on thirty pounds. When I saw him here he started for the Ozarks, he looked healthy enough but he had the appearance of a man who ts beginning to find that there is more than mere luck in being a 200 pounder. , “His 1s the kind of fit that he can work off from time to time until {t throws him comyNetely, but it also is the kind of fat, that brings about some physical weakness in the pro- cess of reduction. “J'd saySthat one of these days when Old Mr. Fat gets his strangle hold on Ruth, the home run king will acquire a girth that will make TRACK IN SOUTH Johnson’s Prize Horse Out in Front at End Of $25,000 Race. NEW ORLEANS, Lea., Feb. 7.— (United Press.}—Ridden to a new track record by Jockey Legere, F. Johnson’s Quatrain won the $25,000 New Orleans Handicap at the Fair Grounds this afternoon, C. H. Thierot’s Prince James was second, and The Idle Hour Stock Farm's President third. Breaking ahead of his field, Qua- train’ was rated behind the pace until the stretch was reached, when Legere brought him on in a sensa- | tional rush for the wire. The Vintner, Leopordess and Chilhowee, the favorite and top weight, showed strongly unt] the stretch, when they could not match Quatrain’s speed. The time was 1:43 3-5, which clipped 1 1-5 seconds off the former track record. Quatrain paid 18 to 5, 8 to 5 and 4 to 5. Prince James was quoted at 8 to 1, 3 to 1, 8 to 5, and the President 10 to.1, 4 to 1 and 2 to 1 ies alee Slee Nurmi, the Finn, who possesses “ten-million-dollar legs’ will address the radio audience from W.

It makes him so great around the belt that the can not see the low balls. Dan Brouthers was one of the best batters that the game ever saw and at his begt could pick anything out of the air that was pitched to hi / High or low, it was all the same him, He'd slam the high ones cu. and lift the low ones over the wall. One day he overheard a catcher tell the pitcher to keep the ball around his knees. He laughed but suddenly he discovered that he could not pit ‘em around the knees as he once had. He could pot find the ball because there was an obstruction in the line of his vision. The obstruc- tion was firmly attached to his mid- die and he ceuld not remove tt. Dan did not retire immediately but more and more the fight against the increase of avoirdupols was a losing one and finally he had to give it up. Ruth is now about thirty, just about to turn the other way of the road as athletes turn. When a ball- player gets to be thirty he may con- tinue on until he ts forty with 'con- siderable success. Arfson did that. But the player knows the fight is being carried to him when he reaches the thirty mark-—that the arch enemy of all men who must de pend upon thelr ability to keep down to a certain weight has opened hos tilities Ruth will have a long, hard seige to get off the surplus weight of the winter at Hot Springs and he knows it. That's why he started early, Last year, it hit him pretty hard to get into condition and this year he ts taking more time hoping to achieve it without weakening himself or fall ing ill. a NEW RECORD ON HURDLES KANSAS CITY, Mo., Feb. 7 (United Press)—A new world’s rec ord for the 60-yard high hurdles was set by Riley, of the Illinois Athletic club at the annual K.

There was no competition in the field against him and the crowd was shouting for new records.
