BABE DUE TO STAR AGAIN NEXT YEAR, BUCKY SAYS Local Boss Opines Bambino Should Regain Slugging Power After Plenty of Rest—Remains Confi- dent Griffs Will Beat Out Mackmen. BY STANLEY (BUCKY) HARRIS, Manager and Second Baseman, World Champion Washington Clul ABE RUTH was taken out of the Yankee batting order recently to allow Bob Veach to hit for him. Somec fans got the idea that the big fellow was removed for a pinch hitter; that Miller Huggins had lost faith in his ability to wallop the ball in a tight place. The real facts in the case, I learn, were directly thé opposite. Veach batted for Ruth because the latter had an injured back. 2 . The king of the sluggers hasn't been himself this season. No one will + deny that. He isn't driving out those fence-clearing and bleacher-landing : home runs as in other years. His batting average has shrunk very much, : and he isn't getting on the paths or scoring, as has been his habit. In other words, the Babe is no longer the menace to a pitcher that he once was. Here he is hitting ‘way under .300, fans can count upon him hitting his according to the last averages I saw. |old-time stride another season.

In fact, with one year excepted, he has hit in the select class since he came to the ma jors. Some base ball followers may have the idea that the Babe is through as| a star. If so they are in for a big sur- prise. The big fellow ought to come back next year just as great as ever. 1 look for him to have another big sea- son in 1926, no matter how he winds up the present campaign. Ruth Unfortunately Placed.

ROD AND STREAM BY PERRY MILLER. ERRING BAY, situated just 33 miles from Washington, captured H all honors last week, according to reports of big catches of trout, rock, hardheads, perch and spot. Herring Bay is one of the near- est of salt-water fishing grounds, and those who have visited there are familiar with the name of Manifold. Capt. Andy Manifold is the head of the family, and if he has a party on his hands and can't take you out, he will call on his sons or some of his relatives. His two able lieutenants are Harry and Ben Manifold, both of whom are capable mariners. Last week these captains reported | Sport Shop.

A reader writes in_to know the sea- sons for fishing with hook and line, conditions as to size and varieties in the District, Virginia and Maryland, and also if a fish license is required and, if so, where same can be obtained and at what price. . For his information and those who did not get these data earlier in the season the following is again printed: The fishing season in the Dis- trict of Columbia for small and big mouth bass and crappie opens May 30 and closes the first day of April, following. No license is re- quired to fish in District waters.

BY JOHN J. McGRAW, Manager, New York Glants, National League Champlons. EW YORK, August 15—The fact that the Giants have to wind N their season with a Western trip while the Pirates finish. at home never has struck me as a material advantage for Pittsburgl Throughout the base ball country this is pointed to as lessening th chances of New York, but past records do not prove it a handicap. In the case of Washington and Philadelphia in the American League it certainly can make no difference, because ‘they both finish at home | while the Western clubs are making their last tour of the East. | With a good ball club I had just as soon make our last fight on the road as not. In fact, one of the greatest races we ever won was 191 when we went into the West and cleaned up.” For another example, t the last four seasons. We certainly won two of those pennants, finishir on the road.” The Yanks, you will recall, also won their secor d champion ship with a hard finish fight in the West. The Nationals did it last F TWO-MILE TROTTING . | o it Inaet“si &0 RECORD IS SMASHED I haven't the record book before By the Associated Press but I think it will show that at least half of the pennants were won b teams that had to wind up with lox road trips.
