Connors Mo Whether it's home runs, tee shots or the stomach ach:, Babe Ruth can always be counted upon to pro- duce something extraordinary and in a biz way. The Babe wants $85,000 a year for three years and shows some inclination to insist upon it with propriate - Ruthian gestures al- gh Colonel Ruppert is willing to y his star a presidential stipend 0C0 for a two-year term of her case the Babe gets a when bigger and better paid in the major ues, Ruth will get them. What- the merits of the present fi- nancial dispute, Ruth always has been worth whatever the Yankees paid him. In less than a decade, the Ruthian pay-check mounted from $10,000 to $70,000, a mere 700 per cent increase, but the Yankees h d le: e s regularly. His last three-year contract, call- ing for a total of $210,000, was con- sidered a wild risk—for the Yan- kees. It was signed on or about the eleventh floor of the Ruppert brewery and there was some dis- position among the boys to believe that “Colonel Jake” had become » a trifle balmy under the mellow influence of his surroundings. At the close of that year—1927—the same boys crowded around to con- gratulate the Colonel on his re- markably astute judgment after the Babe had proceeded to clout 60 home runs and smash his own major league record. About this time eight years ago, Ruth apparently had hit the chutes # after a disastrous season and a lot of riotous business among the bright and dim lights along Broadway. The big fellow sat at a dinner table one night and listened to the fa- mous appeal of Jimmy Walker to get hold of himself, turn over a new leaf and make good for the “dirty-faced kids” who considered him an idol. “I'm going to quit this stuff and down to business and that goes,” responded Ruth, with a sin- cere show of emotion. He did. And except for the famous stomach- ache of 1925 and the “flu” of 1929, the Babe has missed few games. A year ago the Babe said to me: “Say, T feel more like a kid than ever. I'm not getting any young- er but I will only be 35 next month and T've got a lot of baseball left. I still think I will be in there ¥ when I am 40, taking a cut at 'em.” Ruth will be “only 36" this Feb- yuary, an age when, according to pig Bill Tilden, no champion should be slowing up unless he has yielded to “mental pressure” or lost the “will to win.” Ruth never has been troubled by mental pressure. ~His under-pin- ning no longer carries him over the territory in right field as rapidly as before but his spirit, the “will to win” or whatever other fancy name you give to the “competitive urge” is still faere. Ruth would rather forfeit any raise in pay than miss the opening game but he witl not be called upon to make this magnificent sacrifice. v The answer to what ex-Bunion Derby competitors do in the winte e paid bigger and better divi-' horses in a six-day race at Phila- { delphia. Olli and Joie covered 735 miles, running alternately, and had the quadrupeds dizzy. 1 IMRS.

Last night on the Elks aileys, in | By PAUL B. ZIMMERMAN (Asscciated Press Sports YWriter) LOS ANGELES, Jan. 2.—Charley Paddocx is not yet ready to put away his spiked shoes for good At least the great sprinter says he isn't. However, it is going to take more than the mere announcement of his intentions to compete in his 17th consecutive speed campaign to con- jvince coast critics. If Charley does get out on the cinders and train seriously the question then will be: Will he be back to try his prow- ess in the 1932 Olympiad in Los Angeles? Last season when critics on ev ery side predicted the exit of Pad- dock, he came back as a member of the Los Angeles relay team and 118343 |assisted in setting two records at February Denver in the 400-yard and 880- National A. A. U. Meet. In 1926 the veteran was clocked no less than five times at 9.6 sec- onds for the century and was cred- ited with an American record of 9.5 seconds. Paddock is conditioning himself and hopes to take on the present crop of college champions who were in kindergarten when he began running at the Pasadena High School back in 1914. Since that time he has competed cn three Olympic teams, besides collecting unto himself the 'greater {share of the dash records. Some of these still stand. Granting that he makes the training grade, Paddock will be a {member of the L. A. A. C. sprint relay teams, opening his campaign with the Southern Pacific relays at Long Beach, Cal, February 22. He may also enter a number of open races in dual meets with coast universities and_colleges. i L S, TWO BASEBALL PITCHERS IN LINE FOR SHEEPSKINS yard relays, feature events. of thel ANN ARBOR, Mich, Jan. 29.—| No women succeeded in passing |Two baseball players, Peter Jablo- the has been obtained after con-| iderable research. |the most recent foreign service ex- Olli Wantinen of New York, the|amination, although two qualified in | 97-pound Finnish runner and Phil {the one held last spring and now | sranville, the Canadian walker, are occupying posts In Geneva and nowski and William McAfee expect to get Michigan sheepskins at the end of the present semester, Feb. 14. each of whom figured in the cross- Beirot, Syria. country Pyle jaunts, have entered| Miss Mitchell lives in Washing- | the Snowshoe Derby to be run ton with her mother, Mrs. Caroline shortly from Quebec to ‘Montreal.

The| recent batting averages of the Na- tional League bolstered their view when it was seen that the Quaker; team almost set a record for total! hits. It was announced the other day that the Phils were going South; earlier than usual this year. On\‘ February 25, to be exact, the bat- | tery group of the Phils will be on their way headed by Grover Cleve- land Alexander, the old veteran who wants two years more of serv-. ice—and doubtless he will have the | opportunity of winding up his ca-| reer in a blaze of glory by helping | the Phils to win a pennant as he| did in 1915. \ Thirteen other battery men will/ go South with Alexander and per-| haps most of them will come home | with him.
