RECORD 59 Total Probably to Stand as His High Mark, Belief. BY JOHN B. (Copyright 1925 The JACKSONVILLE, —Babe Ruth is not likely to break his home run record of 1921 this season—nor in any season. to come, The 69 mark that he set four years ago almost certainly will stand as his high water mark. The Babe is getting fat, unques- tlonably fat. Despite all his boiling out at Hot Springs and all his train ing and dieting down here, he still could do with a loss of ten pounds without hurting him any. But that Ruth's fat is the fat of high living is questionable. Rather it Seems to be the kind that years always bring to a certain type of athlete. For Ruth from now on, the prob- lem is not so much a new home run record as it is one of keeping his weight down within playing limits. He probably can do this for severa! more years if he wishes. But the question Is whether his temperament will stick it out under the strain of dieting and constant training, Will he not sbme day throw fame over- board, relapse into plain, fattish George Herman Ruth and let ‘his dead past bury his dead? It is tor- ture for some fat men to keep within Umits. Ruth's welght is not seriously af- fecting his playing for the moment. He came In the other day on a short fly and made a beautiful catch. He goes around the bases on his toes and when he hits he slams the ball to regions that It never visited be- fore. He will bang many a home run this season, no doubt. But— the pitchers will pitch to Ruth now. where once they were loath to do it. Nonetheless, Ruth stands out as one of the prominent. cogs In the machine with which Manager Hug gins professes his hope and confi- dence of winning another pennant.

ATHERSTONE’S TRAINER GIVEN PRAISE BY FANS SAN DIEGO, Calif., March 80.— Rising above the flood of congratu- lations that swept about today as an aftermath to Atherstone’s bril- Mant victory tn the Coffroth handj- cap at the Tijuana race track yester day were those handed to D. R. Mc- Daniel, who trained the victor for the stable owned by Mrs. Victor Vivaudou of New York. Coming from a family of famous trainers, McDaniel gave his best to prepara- tion of the fine chestnut gelding, and horsemen today were enthusi- astic In their praise of his work. Already plans are being considered for a “consolation” race to be run next Sunday and to include several of the contenders in yesterday's fray, which was disappointing to some of the owners because the sloppy mud on the track was a dis- tinct handicap to thelr particular runners. NEW HOM AUN KING FORFAEEN WITH YANKEES Combs Swats Three in 5 to 4 Win Over Baltimore. NEW YORK, March 30.—Evidence that.a new foe for American league fence builders had appeared In the Yankees’ lineup was apparent yester- day at Montgomery, Ala., as the Huggins brigade struggled through 10 innings to victory over Brook lyn, 5 to 4. After four scoreless frames, Earl Combs, the young outfielder, hit his third homerun of the training trip, scoring Dugan. The drive was a Ruthlan wallop of 490 feet from home plate to deep center. Earls departure made way for a new bid to distinction on the part of Ben Paschal, native Alabamian, who inserted the winning blow of the battle in the extra inning. His single brought the deciding run of the game. He also got a triple. Six pitchers were used by both teams and were hit freely. Ruth had a brace of doubles to his credit. The Giants yesterday left Tampa for Jacksonville, Fla., with heavy hearts. Word was passed around that their star second sacker, Frank Frisch, might not be able to resume his place In the lineup as the result of the wrenched ankle which he suf. fered Saturday. Ligaments in the leg are strained, it was announced.

FARRELL, (United Press Sports Editor) NEW YORK, March 30—(United eress)—Several years ago Johnny Mitchell was regarded us having the most stagnant job in baseball. He was the substitute shortstop with the New York Yankees and Deacon Scott, the regular shortstop, hadn't missed a single game tn something like four years. It was a pipe as a lazy man’s job, but it was a bad spot for a young player who had ambitions to get ahead in the game. The role of an understudy is a good education when there !s an oc- casional chance to work, but Mitch: ell had so much practice at watching Scott that it ruined him as a player and he was one of the most promis- ing youngsters that had come up from the minor leagues. He kept on his fielding, but he lost his bat- ting eye in the shadow of the dugout Any rookie who {s now grabbed in the minors by the New York Yan- kees or the New York Glants has an almost hopeless job to land even an upper berth as a_ substitute. There are no clubs in the major leagues where it {s as difficult to displace a regular player as it is with the two New York Clubs. John McGraw hasn't a spot for the best player in the minor leagues and Mi'ler Huggins couldn't use any- thing but a shortstop as good as Hans Wagner. The Giant and Yankee managers were being congratulated this year over the fine collection of young players that their scouts had dug up last season, but there weren't any expressions of elation from them. They rather expected synipathy with the plea: ‘Now that we have ‘em, what'll we do with ‘em.?™ McGraw has among the Glant regulars and substitutes *he young: est infield in baseball and an. out- field that is 15 years awuy from the antique state.

GORDON HATS NEW YORK, March 30.—There !s talk going the rounds of inner circles that Jack Dempsey will ap- Pear twice In bouts on the Pacific coast before fall is well established. The statement of the California boxing commission that It ts not in- terested in the action of the New York body in barring the champion Iends color to this rumor. But tt takes two to make a fight and the writer wonders if there is a good heavywelght in the country who ts willing to risk the displeasure of the New York commission and its allies by taking the small loser’s end of a bout with the title holder in ex- change for a six months suspensio It looks doubtful. There are good boxing states bound by agree ment to respect one another's rul- ings and it is hardly lkely that Gibbons, Renault or any other big timer would lke to count himself out of the picture for half a year. Ip the meantime, when any bout that does not iook safe for a top Miner {s mentioned, the prices named make the average promoter Want to commit suicide. Gibbons places the value of his services as an opponent for Harry Wills at $200,000 and then there ts Jack Kearns' plea for a responsible promoter to come forward with an offer for a Dempsey-Wills go. Kearns merely asks that aforesaid |responsible promoter offer Demp- sey $500,000, How small seems the figure quoted in Gene Tunney’s defi to Gibbons who offers Tommy a guarantee of $75,000 to meet him.
