March 2 Landi came, saw here yesterday, ¥ he invaded the camp of the York Yankees, who have been anxiously awaiting his arrival here wor a week. The Judge is still the big figure in baseball. Hoe is firm tor the dig- Mity of the office of Commissioner of Baseball, strong for enforcement of the laws of the game. He withstood the following jicas, delivered as only by men whose very souls are bound up im their arguments. ‘That of Miller Huggins, who spoke for himself i Manager of the Yankees in asking a ~faising of the suspensions of Babe Ruth and Hob Mouse That of Ruth, who apologized for his defiance of the Commissioner last October, when le openly fluunte all baseball authority and went to Play barnstorming basebal That of Bob Meusel, who "squared" himeelr for his alleged interview in Chicago when he was quoted as tell- ing Judge Landis to Go jump in th lake.” Col, Jacob Ruppert. President of + the Yankee nd Edward G. ' © business manager of the club, k no part in the discussion. They allowed Huggins and the suspended men to talk but would not take up the case as a club matter, The Yankee players, headed ty Bob Shawkey, Joe Bush and Carl Mays, decided aft the rebuff to Huggins that there was no chance for # favorable considera- tion of a plea by them and sid tracked (heir proposed interview The Judge was adamant on the tter of a raising of the suspensions. He went to the ball park and keenly enjoyed a game between the Yanks and the new Orleans team. They paid $250 for a ball auto- graphed by Babe Ruth, the proceeds to go to the Salvation Army, under whose auspices the game was held. He went out on the fleld, talked to the PLEAS FOR RUTH AND MEUSEL o THE EVENING WORLD, FRIDAY, MARCH 24, JUDGE LANDIS ball players, ing between 1d a good posed for photos stand- Ruth and Meusel, He time, enjoying himself ery minute of the way; but when the reporters asked him whether he intended doing anything for the apolo- getic, sorrowing rule breakers, ‘he said very sternly: here is nothing to add to that subject." New York fans may us well prepare themselves for the absence of Ruth and Meusel for the first six weeks of the season, They won't get into the Yankee line-up, The Judge isn't ang to relent. He likes the big abe and big Rob. He told them both so last night, but he feels that the matter of discipline for 10,000. bail Players undey his jurisdiction ts a bigger thing than the mere satisfying of the feclings of the fans. He thinks the principle involved in the case is the big thing, and while he is) very sorry for the game Yankce owners, Col, Ruppert and Col, Huston, who ace chief sufferers by his decision, he bei the welfare of the mands the enforcement of his decision It m well be stated that of other club owners in behalf of Ruth Daven't met with three cheers trom the Judge. He thinks these pleas, es- pecially that of Clark Griffith, Prest- dent of the Washington club, with whom the Yankees open in Washing- ton Ack entirely too much of com- miecialisn The absence of Ruth in the openin scenes at Washington and New York would, of course, make aui healthy difference to “Griff. There wasn't anything to the game between New Orleans and the Yanks yesterday except the batting of Nor- man McMillan, who is being prepared for a berth in the Yank outfield in the absence of Ruth and Meusel. This enterprising youngster made five hits in five times up and looks as though he will eastly fill the shoes of one of the suspended stars. He is an infield> er, but is picking up points in outfield work fast, and as he is a hustler and in dead earnest, he ought to help a lot. Frank Baker made a home run, his third in two days. The old timer is rapidly rounding to form and should be the Huggins’s ace with the stick in the absence of Ruth.

(Spe MOBIL! ing fa) to The Evening World.) Ala., Mareh 24.—Follow- the Mobile to-day’s game with club, the Dodgers will leave for New Orleans where to-morrow they will tash with Miller Huggins's American League champions in the first game of their fourteen scheduled. The sec ond game will be played at New Or- leans on Sunday, but Monday will he both teams an idle day for Uncle Robbie's lads are ready for tneir games with the Yanks. The pitchers are in perfect shape, and while the team suffered a tempor slump in the game against Lee 1 St. Louis Browns here yesterday, Robbie doesn't expect them to remain in the slump very long. Robbie believes his team will come ty out of the slump in time to beat the Yanks, and he would rather have his team beat the Yankees than any other club in the American League. With their pitchers in shape the Dodgers have an excellent chance to take the measure of the American League champs, but the Yankees also expect their hurlers to come through with some good performances. Yesterday's defeat by the Browns has had no effect on the morale of the Brooklyn team. Robbie's Ath- letes are confident they will win the series from the Yanks, and there isn’t a pitcher in the camp who has ex- pressed any fear for “Babe” Ruth. According to most of the Brooklyn pitchers, Ruth will be stopped by the same method as last year. The Brooklyn pitchers had the Yankee slugger making wild attempts to hit a ball high on the inside, and they expect to do the same this spring. “Dutch” Ruether apparently can't work successfully for more than three innings, Robbie allowed his star left-hander to work five innings against the Browns yesterdav and Ruether couldn't stand the ¢ For three innings the sterling ® °'hpaw had the Browns at his mere. jut in the fourth session somethin, went wrong with his control, a dhe walked two men. This startd his downfall, for his mates made two errors behind him and Severeid made a hit which gave the Browns three runs all told. In the fifth the Browns scored another marker. ‘Urban Shocker got a chance to show his stuff against the and he proved to them that one of the best hurlers in Johnson circuit Shocker toyed with the Dodgers for five innings, During this time he al- lowed only two hits, one by Zach Wheat in the second inning and the other’ by Jimmy Johnston in the fourth Inning. Both Wheat and John- ston cracked out the singles with none out, but their mates refused to aid them. Rill Bayne was on the mound when the Dodgers scored their two runs. Robbie's athletes got started in the eighth, but if Bayne had not devel- oped a wild streak it is doubtful whether they would have been able to Put across the two runs they madi Goose That Eggs for Some?
