The governor in vetoing the bill, based his action on an opinion of At- torney General Lesh of Indiana which held it to be unconstitutional. 10 LEAVE SPRINGS “Babe" Ruth Expects fo Be Sufficent- ly Kecovered From Ilness Tomor- row to Go to New Orleans, Hot Springs, March 6.—Rain which kept Babe Ruth, premier slugger, in- doors all of yesterday, again early to- day threatened to keep the restless Bambino peering wistfully from his window out upon a dreary world.

He suggested George Moire, former national three- cushion champion; Murray Eilen and T. Henry Clarkson of the Amateur Billlard club of New York; Harry Cline of Philadelphia, and Morris Brown, former national amateur ! champion. Hoppe Says Nothing When confronted with the list and asked whether any of the men would be acceptable to him, Hoppe smilingly declined to commit himself, saying, “T will not discuss the matter until the meeting.” Hoppe's attitude, however, gave the impression th# he was not overenthusiastic regarding the list. The champion is perfectly satisfied with Levis, and it is not beyond the bounds of possibility that he will in- sist upon the Chicagoan officiating. The Brunswick-Balke-Collender Co. which donated the medal emblematic of the championship, has the right, under the deed of giftto name the referee, but, as C. P. Miller explained, the company is anxious to satisfy both players in this connection, and if they | unable to agree upon a choice the company will exercise its prerogative and name the official. The first game will be played at Spring-| field tomorrow night, and the second in the Elm City on Friday night.
