Getting Ruth for a sun understood to be $125,000 is the most expensive deal ever completed in baseball. No players were exchanged. A ton of money was handed over to the Boston Red Sox in order that “Babe” could do his lusty clouting for the Yanks. ar, was doled out for any s Just two weeks ago President Rup> |pert started negotiations for the | greatest home run swatter the game | ever knew. $100,000 President Harry |called for a showdown and Ruth's | contract, which has one mare year to |run, was taken over by the New York | Club. ‘The Boston magnate simply said that he let his star go for the good of baseball. While the club owners easily came to terms Manager Miller Jout in Los Angeles doing a | missionary work with Ruth. There is a strong possibility that the piteb- | ors’ Kill-Joy will insist on a substan- tial slice of the transfer dough and for lambasting the Polo Grounds stands, There is only a remote chance of Ruth becoming a holdout. “Behind the record deal lurks a neat dig at Ban Johnson, President of the American League. Big Ban was never consulted about the transfer, Both the Boston and New York Clubs have been waging a bitter fight baseball czar and every precaution was taken to prevent Johnson toss- ing any obstacles in the way. Rabe Ruth is now twenty4ive years old, He was born in Baltimore, Feb 7, 1894. He is built on the lines of Jack Dempsey, standing 62 and weighing slightly over 200 pounds. Only recently the home run champion with his record of twenty-nine cir- cuit wallops threatened to leave the diamond flat on its back while he argued with Dempsey over the right- ful possession of the heavyweight crown, Jack Dunn, more Orioles y manager of the Balti- nd a shrewd judge of baseball ability, yanked Ruth out of a Baltimore probation school and developed his ball playing. The Bos- ton Red Sox purchased the husky youngster from Baltimore in 1914 for a@ sum said to be about $2,700. Breaking into the Major Leagues Ruth first gained fame as a twirler. He was a vital factor in his club winning the American League pen- nants in 1916 and 1918, and World’s Series of those years he smashed Mathewson's record for su: cessive scoreless innings of twent | shifting him to the outfield where his | tremendous hitting strength would be more valuable to the club. ‘The Babe is a spectacular hitter.

BOSTON, Jan. 6.—Opinions voiced here to-day that Gtorge’ (Babe) Ruth, of the Boston American League Baseball Club, run hitter, would protest his transfer to the New York Americans were | strengthened by the following telegram from him received by John Igve, champion home ton. Will leave for the Kast Monday.” o not only made 29 hoMers last season, but cracked out 12 three-bamgers and 34 doubles. His averaye for 130 games list of lending batters. For a big man Ruth is remarkabty fast. His fielding was almost as aen- sational as his long-range hitting. Although originally a pitcher Ruth covered his position so cleverly last year that he topped American League outfielders with a mark of .992 for 111 games and thus flashed ahead of Yankees on the vast sum paid for his transfer from Boston. He will prob- ably play regularly in right field at |the Polo Grounds and, because of his picturesque personality and play- ing ability, should be a tremendous drawing attraction for local fans, Back in 1908 the Giants started the upward swing in baseball values, when $11,000 was given for Rube Mar- quard, Subsequent deals have made this sum look like a piker’s hgndout In these big money deals the New York Americans ha’ xercised thelr bankrofls more liberally tgin any club in either league.
