San Francisco course. a real test of
golf. with a still! wind blowing from’
the Pacific Ocean. J
Smith was very erratic with all of
his shoots on the outgoing nine and
took 43 strokes to make the turn.
Coming back Smith got going and
played up to the expectations .of the
large gallery which trailed the pair. It
was Klrkwood who was playing poorly
on this nine. However. his large lead
on the outgoing round enabled him to
get home just ahead of 'the Califor-

Ruth Will Never
By NEA Senior:
NEW YORK. Jan. lit—Will Babe
Ruth do a comeback in 1923. thrill
the fans with his terrific wallops and
win back his fast-waning prestige?
If you would believe a half dozen
of the star pitchers who dropped
around at the recent meeting of the
major leagues. Ruth has seen his
best days as a slugger.
"Never again will Ruth be as
when he :
troublesome as in 1921.
made those 59 home runs." remarked
one prominent big league twirler. '
"In those days. Ruth was femd
by every pitcher in the American
League. while those in the National
were thankful he svnsn‘t in that or-
ganisation. 'Ruth was a big threat
in those days, but that big bat of his
no longer carries the base-hit dyna- ‘-
mite with which it was once loaded.
"Ruth has lost confidence in his
ability to hit. and without it he is '
only anordinary batsman."
There you have the opinion of one
of the best pitchers in the American
League;
“Ruth lacked co-ordlnation in his
hitting last summer." remarked an-
other pitcher. He was out of tune all
summer. The eye. the brain «and the
arms were not acting in unison. Co-
ordination is more or less a gift. and
