POWER TO DELWER | EFFECTIVE BLOWS ° ~ MAKES CHAMPION Babe Ruth’s Ability to Land Telling Punch Possessed by Title Holders in All Branches of Athletics—Even Little Fellows Have the Winning Blow. \ By Robert Edgren. HDRE ts no denying punch wins. Not only in the ring, but In any Sport it is the man with the punch who makes good. Take golf. Bobbie Jones who has been playing a remarkable game these past few months, is driving as far as any amateur in the country. The “punch” puts him rear enough to the green to get in his skilful ap ft—the Proaches and his well-calculated putts. I have often watched Leo Diegel, the great professional, who has a habit of breaking course records wherever he plays. Diegel is a tre mendous driver—perhaps the longest driver in America, He hits a tremen @ous iron, too, and drops. his approaches “dead to the pin.” punch wins many a match for him In tennis, Maurice McLoughlin, | when at his best, was famous for the terrific punch he put into his serv- foe and returns. In nearly every game McLoughlin broke one or two racquets—smashing them by the tre- mendous power he it into hitting the ball. A tennis racquet is a strong well-made implement. It would seer imposible to break a light, elastic obje which would seem it by hitting su asa tennis ba fer little more resistance than a Tut McLoughlin did it. ha. taken up golf instead of tennis this past year or two, and is playing a Strong game.

ITH the weather man forecast- ing “fair and warmer” for to- day, those much-hated belll- gorents, New York and Brogklyn, will resume their tussle for second place in the National League race with a) duel of southpaws. | Weather forecasters as @ rule are forever bringing the wrath of a cer- tain faction upon their heads of late, not that they have any direct or in- direct bearing in the storms that might sweep the Atlantic seaboan, but just at this writing the gentlemen perched high in the tower of the Whitehall Building, who just merely predict what way the wind will blow, fo, are much in disfavor with the Kingdom of Fandom for the recent weather, Two days have passed into the dis- card that Brooklyn and Giant rooters look upon as lost—two days that they have ‘had to suppress that surplus enerey to “boo” either the Giant or Dodger players, whatever way they | might have allied their sentiment. | The Dodgers’ ability to wallop right handers has moved the manager of the New York Club to give Rube Ren- ton a trial” against the National League Champions. Rube, up to the | excellent bit of pitching he turned in| against the Boston Braves last week, Was listed among the indisposed, but his holding Fred Mitchell's team to three hits has placed him in good favor with his club leaders, and he has been chosen to try his hand at} subduing the batting triumvirate of the Dodgers, Wheat, Johnson and Griffith, when they clash to-day in t second game of the series, | he Ivodgers all through thetr ‘ast five cames had no trouble in hitting right-handers such as Toney, Ryan and Barnes.

The law goes into effect im- mediately. “I noticed in The World of this date your announcement of the passage of the Betts bill relative to tre t hunters and fishermen. Ther much nfore to this bill than you speak} of. Unless thig bill was amended since its first reading, it applies to ‘all lands used for agricultural pur- poses,’ and its penalties apply to all lands of that class, even though not i. And if I 4m correct in my the passage of this b n fishing in this Sta all All lamd on which cattle ure pastured, stops in or from which wood or fence posts are cut, and all waters from which water is taken for domestic use, or for watering stock, may be construed as being used for agricultural pur- poses. And I believe this bill had that construction in yiew when troduced. There can be no que but that the farmer is entitle greater consideration and protect by law than he has heretofore bh But this bill not all for farmer. The interests behind bill are not philanthropic nor cultural to any great extent, bill as passed was in i form, the sportsmen of this State find it to be far more* pernicious its effects on sport than the deer law passed © years ago “Whatever effect of the fishermen can ascribe its passage to two things. First, to the utter disregard of the rights of the owners | of the land, and lack of common de |cency exhibited toward these own- ers a large number of fishermen the result of whieh reacts on all Second, to the indifference of sports- men to the things yitally important to their interests. And the result of it all is the Betts bill, [ think you | will agree that the en should | be warned through 88 to fa- miliarlze themselves with the pro- visions of this bill, or as it is s| now, before they take any chaners.| -| For this law has real teeth.
