He has asesrted right along that his arm never felt better, and he apparently is eager to prove that he is worth the not inconsiderable sal he insisted upon in the pre-season negotiations, and which was granted aim, with certain pertinent Getting Line ou Veterans. With Ruether toiling this afternoon a line will have been obtained on all three of the veteran pitchers acquired during the off-season and relled upon to such a la extent to bolster the Griffs in their battle to repeat as champions.

Vean Gregg, on with colors flying when asked to e: similar service. That the Griffmen never are beaten until the final put-out is recorded never was more strikingly demonstrat- ed than vesterday. They entered the ninth {nning trailing by three tallies, and, to those unacquainted with their mettle, apparently hopelessly licked, only to turn on the enemy and pile up flvé runs that meant victory with a sustained attack seldom surpassed in ferocity. Griffs Crush Shocker. Nemo Leibold, unsuccessful earlier in the proceedings when injected to hit for McNeely, launched the offen- sive in a rather modest manner by wetting a single. When Harris worked a4 pass out of Hoyt it was figured there was no hope for Waite pulling himself together and Huggins wig- wagged for Shocker. notable spitball nipulator strode o the box acclaimed as a hero by the 000 fans in attendance, but he was a fallen idol in the course of only a few moments, for Rice greeted him with a double to center that cashed Leibold and Harrls, Goslin repeated his home-run drive of the previous inning, scoring Rice ahead, and Judge duplicated the , Joe's drive also carrying into the right field bleachers. Having gained their objective, the Griffs then subsided, although Mec- Nally did help his average with a safety before the half inning ended, and in the fag end of the frame Gregg strutted his stuff. Kid Kelley, summoned to the hill after a pinch- hitter ousted Allen Russell, who fol- lowed Covey on the rubber, had given a good account of himself, but when Kid was nicked for a safety by Dugan, the first Yank to face him in the ninth, Harris decided to take no chances with the 20-year-old recruit and called for Gregg, exactly double that age. The crafty veteran fiddled around and exasperated Combs into topping a drive that Ruel pounced on and fired to Judge, and then slipped a third strike over on Meusel. Vean cut things a bit too fine in trying to make pinch-hitter Shanks offer at bad ones and walked him, then decided to get the thing over with and fanned Ward on three pitched balls. Yanks Rally in Third. Base hali's most Passes to Combs and Meusel in the opener and safeties by Scott and Hoyt in the second availed the Yanks nothing, but they registered the first of tally the a bit of good luck in the third. Dugan started this frame by crashing a single past McNally and ed to third on Comb shot to center. Covey then whiffed Meusel on three pitched balls and Pipp fouled to McNally, but Ward's little fly was too far for Rice to reach and Dugan scored, while Combs took third.

The Griffs made several false starts Lefore they contrived to horn into the run column. McNeely's Texas leaguer and a pass to Goslin netted nothing in the first,*and Peck's pass, followed by Ruel's safety in the second, was nullified when McNally drilled into a double play. Another dual killing followed the franking of Harris in the third, and even a triple by Judge with one gone in the fourth availed naught, Joe be- ing run down when Peck rolled to ‘Ward, while three successive safeties in the sixth also were wasted.

Not content with recording the first Griffithian homer of the season, Goslin gave the entire field a mark to shoot at by poling another in the next frame. Judge was eager to enroll as a circuit clouter in that he waited for only one ball to park it with Goose's pair in the right fleld seats. The Yanks have been stealing ‘Washington's stuff in the matter of engineering double plays, a trio yes- terday raising their total for the three games to date to seven, while the Griffs have had to content themselves with two.

Now, 95 per cent of those. who bet that the Bambino would set a new record are demanding that the bets be declared revoked, rescinded, an- nulled—anything, so that they wont Meanwhile the wiseacres ainst Ruth are making plans to spend their winnings, smoke their cigars, wear their new hats and drink their hooch. The writer has received numerous appeals for a decision that may give me relief to the heavy investors who e so confident of their hero's suc- s after they read that he had hit ball farther in St. Petersburg, Fla, than any other human ever smote a base ball in that State. Alas, the writer can offer the pro- Ruth bettors little consolation. There is no precedent for declaring the wagers off because Ruth didn’t start the season, unless that contingency was specifically provided for when the bet was made. It is expected that ultimately he will start the season and the man who bet he would make a new record will have to take his chances on what Ruth does when he does start. Had the Babe been suspended for n period in midseason the bets would have stood. The same rule ap- plies now—unless, of course, Ruth should be out for the entire season, in which case there would be room for an argument, Offhand it seemed to be a foolish thing to wager that Ruth would bet- ter a record which he made under the most favorable of circumstances. But such is the blind adoration of the fol. lowers of this hero of the ash and leather, that hundreds went in over their heads, figuring the Babe was set for the greatest season of his ca- reer. They were all hopped up over reports sent North by the publicity men folowing Ruth in the South. The homerun king now has lost something like 2 per cent of his sea- son and it looks as If that figure would be run upeconsiderably before he is in condition to play ball again. He gave his stomach an awful rumble in the recent off season and if he doesn't desist it may not be long be- fore he will be robbed even of the chance of trying for a batting record. Meanwhile, his betting followers shed bitter tears over their disap- pearing chances. Some of the more thrifty of them already are seeking settlement on a basis of so much off for cash payment at once. That would seem to be about the best way out for them. There is a player in the American League who is likely to hit the ball as far as Babe Ruth this season, though he may not make &s many home runs. He is Simmons of the Athletics. Look out for that young man’s driving power. When he gets under a ball, or against it, he can hit right on the heels of the Babe. He can’t line 'em out as often be- cause he doesn't seem to have the eve and the centering power on the ball. But he hit a fly at Fort Myers that was probably the longest—cer- tainly one of the longest—ever made SPORT MART 1303 F St. 914 F St. 1410 N. Y.
