be | ‘ BABE RUTH sige Wouldn’t Need Much raining for Any ..of . Mi His Rivals. , FTER eight months of idleness, Jack Dempsey could handie Carpentier, Gibbons, Wills or any other “logical” opponent with only one week of training. The champion isn't going very far back. Certainiy he isn’t slipping enough to reduce his superiority to a level with the other heavies. There were numerous sceptics in the East who believed Dempsey since Lis defeat of Carpentier had fallen a victim to temptations that always lurk around a ring title. It was necessary for Jack to appear personally in a Wew York theatre to convince these doubting Thomases he isn't hog fat from soft living. The champion car- ries only a few pounds of extra Weight.

NEW ORLEANS, La., March 13.— With the complete squad, nineteen regulars and fourteen rookies, assemb- led here, Manager Miller Huggins will put his Yankees through a strenuous week of training at Heinemann Park. Bob Shawrey and “Bullet Joe’ Bush, the pitchers, and Wally Schang, the catcher who may be converted into an outfielder until May 20, arrived yesterday morning after a three weeks’ sojourns at Hot Springs. The little leader plans to hold the batting practice for the regulars and rookies, then a fielding session and finish up with «& nine inning game between the Col Ruppests and the Col, Hustons eacn day. The Yankees have not as yet found their batting eyes. This was plainly in evidence yesterday in the first three innings against the New Orleans Pelicans Pitching for the Pelicans at that time was George MeQuillan, who passed out of the big league several Years ago. McQuillan was a spit- baller during his career with the Phil- lies and the Pirates, but yesterday he mixed up a fast ball with @ curve and gave the Yankees few gvod balls to swing at, Result, the American League champions got only three singles, two by Babe Ruth and the other by J. Franklin Baker. Speaking about Babe Puth, it might be said that he has not started lif the ball, Twelve times he has be to the bat in the two exhibition a fairs against the Pelicans and not an extra base hit has been credited to him, Most of his smashes have been along the ground, ‘The Yankees played two games here last year with the Brooklyn Robins and Babe failed to lift the ball over tae rarden wall, Speaking about the Bube aguin, he aMxed his signature to that much talked-about five-year contragt ye: day morning in the club house. und Col, Huston came to a verbs ugreement at Hot Springs recently, but it Was not until yesterday that the 1 e signed and sealed. The ent is now on its way York tucked away in Col, inside pocket. The Babe signed the pupers with Huggin fountain pen, Huggins declared after the game yesterday that the pen was priceless. All of Huggins's athletes are in good physical condition with the exception of Bob’ Tecarr, the young southpaw from Tarrytown, N. Y. Tecarr has not fully recovered his strength from hix recent attack of the flu, and has not done much pitching, He can just et the ball up to the plate. Georg KK, Murray, however, showed in the game yesterday that he is ready for the regular season. . The former North Carolina col- legian pitched the first five innings against the Pelicans and looked like a million dollars. He had good con- trol of his fast ball and a pretty curve that kept the New Orleaus batters guessing, In the five Inniags that he occupied the mound he al.cwed only two hits, Bob Shawkey has taken a fancy to the youngster and thinks that he will make ihe grade with a little more experience, Another youngster who has a yood to New Huston’s chance to stay with the team is Hinkey Haines, who gained fa 9 aber of the Penn State football hinnes was lagest mio t une on SALEM y ae ¢ “the bases like # frightened devs f} \ tle Is Scheduled To-Night in the Garden. By John Pollock. Judging by the number of tickets which have been purchased for the fifteen-round go betweea Tom Gib- bons and Harry Greb at the Garden to-night, the indications are that the gross receipts will figure up between $110,000 and $115,000. The writer learned to-day that the adwance sale of tickets had already passed the $90,000 mark without. the cheaper seats being placed on cale. It is ex- Pected that the committee staging the show will probably be able to realize between $65,000 and $70,000 for the Milk Fund. Charley White, the crack Chicago light weight, who fights Champion Johnny Dundee in @ fifteen-round bout at Madsion Square Garden on Friday night, will arrive in town on Wednesday to complete his training for the contest. It should be a thrilling con- test, as both men are certain they will win the bout, Fay Kelwer vm.
