THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, JUNE _24, 1921, RUTH MAKES 25TH HOME RUN WITH 15 WEEKS MORE TO GO ST, ANDREWS HOPES ~ JOCK HUTCHISON WILL WIN AT GOLF Popularity of American \Play- ers in Championships. By Viscount Northcliffe. (Cayyrigit, 1921, te the United Press.) ST. ANDREWS, Scotland, June 24. Beautiful St. Andrews is the place ‘where the canny Scots successfully hid the game of golf more than five Jong centuries until a few years ago when their English neighbors diacov- ered it and passed it along to the rest ot the world. Picture to yourself something like Southampton, Long Island, with a background of mountains, a vast con- course composed mostly of people speaking the broad Scotch language so that the English and Americans present can hardly understand them. We cannot understand them, but I can assure you that these East Scot folks understand all about golf’ as your players will tell you when they get bulk, Fine caddies they are, Want their man else Viewed from London and New York, this is an international match among competitors who are Ameri- cans, Australians, Scots, English, | French and Spaniards. St Andrews the whole community has only one wish. That is that your Jock Hutchison, who was born here, ..but who has won fame and fortune tn your land of win, ‘They are quite oblivious of the fact that John Bull will get a hasty jolt if he sees the cup depart for Chicago. I didn’t think it would ‘be possible that the American golfers who have come to St. Andrews could be 80 pepular as those who went amateur championship at Hoylake a month ago—but they are, Night before last a number of them were entertained at a dinner by the Royal and Ancient Club. “Bobby” Jones made two excellent apeevhes, I have asked some of our best ex- perts as to Bobby's ranking. They agree with Vardon’s statement of last year that Bobby is the best ama teur golfer in the world to-day. In the last two weeks he has been in Britain he has made an army of friends by his modest ‘bearing and naturalness, ‘There can hardly be any greater form of torture than that endured by a professional golfer whose Mving status depends upon his success in the long drawn out agony of elimina- too, They to win and nobody tion und the final rounds of the championship. “Ted” Ray, who nar- rowly escaped being slain in the elimination rounda, looked thorcugaly worn and nervous before his round, yet he played rfully well © was a remarkably applauded ident yesterday with something in it about as human as you will ever find in golf in Scotland, Where much of the proseedings are conducted as at a pocyer meeting.

More championships have been lost on that hole than any other The narrow. On your right you have the little bunker, If you slice your ap- proach you may get on the road and take anything up to a dozen to get out.

The road hole, I under- stand, is a kind of horrible nightmare which haunts the players all the way around, and their relief is great when they have completed {t. Hunter made & fine drive but rather overpulled his approach, To avoid going into the road *he pitched the ‘ball very high into the air with a plain-faced mashie and stopped it practically dead, Jock Hutchison played some won- erful shots. In the morning he pulled his drive on to the road, away out to the left. He hesitated for some time as to what to do and then laid the ball dead to the pin. Jock's one at the eighth was a wonder. —_—=>_—_ ty Doyle Resixns as Manager ef Torono Cloth.

By Isaac Shuman. HE erstwhile slipping Giants caught themselves in their de- scent yesterday and for the afternoon returned to their old form with vengeful war clubs, so vengetul indeed that they hammered three pitchers of the Braves for thirteen hits and @ 10 to 4 victory. ‘Therefore it was a pleasant after- noon for the few thousand fans who had remained leal to the club and came out to see them play, regardless of thelr poor performances on the two previous days of the three-game series. And it should have been, for the Giants lookea good in the field as well as at the plate; and, wonders of wonders, one twirler stuck out the contest. He was none other than Frederick Tenn., who kept scattered the nine blows he yielded, got two hits, and—one really had to see this to believe it—stole a base. In fact one of his hits was the re- sult of his pachyderming down to first before Barbare could fling to that bag for an out, Fred got a great hand when he stole gecond even the soical Braves lapsed into smiles as he lumbered down to second in the sixth after singling to right, broke in his stride as Gibson hurled to Barbare to catch him, and then employed all five gaits on «I But here in) | opportunity, should | to the | entrance to the green {s very | detestable road, on the left an ugly | fours to the bag to beat the throw, which was wide.

Frank Frisch hit for a home run over the corner of the right field stands into the bleachers in the fifth and drove in Bangroft ahead of him Frank Gibson, who was catching in lieu of Hank Gowdy for the visitors, led off in the third inning for a homer into the right field stands. One of the two runs scored by Brayes in the fifth resulted indir ly from a strikeout of Watson Toney. Toney the te he by made a wild pitch of third strike, John reaching first in safety and scoring on Barbare’s triple to right. Patterson played a good game at third, making several nice stops and getting one bit in three official ap- pearances, Southworth, the Braves’ fielder, put a sudden stop to th team’s scoring in dived head first after Walker's i drive, caught it, turned a somersault and recovered in time to throw out Young at second. Clark Griffith, President of the Washington Club and several of his ballplaying statesmen came out to witness ts the game, avig a off day. They play here to ay. right home Toney could not get out of the way of a hot grounder hit by Powell in the third, but he did put up a gloved hand 'in time to prevent {t from bash- ing his belt buckle and then picked up the ball for a good throw to Kelly.

Ruth made his twenty-five home runs in ten playing weeks and has as the season has fifteen more weeks | to go his chances of setting a new) record good. Herb Thormahlen, a former Yank hurler, was on the mound for the Sox, and his erstwhile teammates hit the| slender southpaw all over the lot for an even dozen salties. Wally Schang making a double and two singles anu Bob Meusel getting three singles. Babe's homer came in the fifth inning with Roger Peckinpaugh on first With two out in that inning Roger singled and Ruth let the first ball go by, missed the second, but slammed at the next, a curve over the centre of the plate. A white streak was seen moving rapidly through the air, and then sud- denly shoot downward, The ball found resting pla in the right fleld bleach- ers, Peck scoring ahead of t home run monarch. The ball landed two- thirds of the way up the bleachers and is believed to be one of the lon; drives ever made into those stands, fans cheered wildly as Ruth \around the bases. The his appt ing his cap in his Ruthi he touched the home plate. The Yankees started the game with a rush, picked up two runs in the first inning and held their advantage until the end, With one out, Peck singled and Ruth walked in the opening ses- sion. Baker singled and Peok crossed the ‘plate. Meusel also hit safely and home came the Babe. Baker went to third on the hit, but was doubled up at the plate when he attempted to score after Menosky caught Pipp's fly. With the foundation for a victory es- tablished, the Yankees score! another run in the fourth. Raker singled and likewise Meusel. Pipp sacrificed. Ward was hit by a pitched ball, filling the bases.
