Ecbe—In Detail Although Ruth broke into the major leagues in 1914, it wasn't un- til about 1920 that the news pho- tographers began to pay him par- ticular attention, and that atten- tion has continued and increased to this day. The actual playing season of baseball is short but in recent years| the picture-taking of Babe has continued throughout the year. To illustrate this point, the files of The Associated Press contain among numerous others these off- season pictures of Ruth: riding horseback, fishing, playing golf and billiards, spectator at boxing bouts, 2 polo, matches, cricket, refereei boxing bouts, in a dentist ¢ working out at a gym, banquew benefits and beefsteaks and “at home.” L Baseball Pictures The gym workout and some of | the ‘others are annual winter fea- tures.

It would be difficult to compul the number of feet of film th | newsreels have made of Ruth since | 1914. The same is true of the ama- teur still photographers whose out- put of “Ruth” pictures is too pro- lific to be ignored. Ruth Has Head Start e for 20 years, it is inter ng to note, his closest riv- al, the President, started to Fave his picture taken as a Big Leaguer only a year and a half ago. The explanation of this sudden rise is the personality of the Pre dent, plus the fact that news pro- tographers become the he is nominated for the presidency. He doesn't go anywhere without them. Cameras are Vigilant Rcosevalt and Hoover were cach accompanied by seven photog- raphers on the lonz campaign fours and that number 5 aug- mented at every stop. This vig raphers continues until the Presi- denf. has retired to private life. Then and only then does it taper off, While the Babe may wear the “most photographed” crown only a little while longer, he always tographers—he never “no” to their “ju: says one more.” NORTHERN PACIFIC REPRESENTATIVE MAKES FIRST TRIP TO ALASKA S. F. Fitzpatrick, Northern Pa- cific representative from the Spo- kane office of the company, came north on the Alaska early this week and transferred to the Vie- toria southbound in Skagway. This is Mr. Fitzpatrick's first trip to Alaska and he expressed himself as tremendously impressed with the ' magnificence of the scenery and hospitality of the Alaskan people.
