BABE PROVED
URCHIN’S TRUST

Told Sport ‘Vriters He
Would Come Back-—.
Made Good Promise

 

 

"The Man \\'lto Came Back"—
that's Babe Ruth!

A little less than a year ago. fol-
lowing a. terrible exhibition in base-
ball's :mlitiztl ('lleSlt', the lube wag
the most cursed. must Iiinligncd man
in h:lsebaill

And it was a little less than a. year
ago. too. when at a dinner of news-
paper men ht} gave. to the writers
and to Senator Jimmy \Vaiker that
pledge of honor that he would come

back—a. pledge made for the sake
of “the dIrty—l'HI-cd kids of the
street.’

Its doui. iii if any of the. men

present that u\t‘llili,£: took the liube's
pledge vwry stvriously. L'I'int: only
human liil'nifi~'l\’i’.‘l, they made al-
lowance for the liziianiio's own hu-
maImI-sn and applauded loudly, even
as they smiled inwardly with cynic-
al superiority and gave "tho big
bum" tiIrI-e “’N'Itfl in which to out-

live tho reform to which he had
pledged himself.

Now, at the fur: end of another
Sfilsfln, the Babe. has com! back.
No question about that. And no
question, too, but that he )lrls
brought {be “hole Yankee team
with him on his rIIturn trip. The
Yankees this 5I-ar are a real hall

t'IllIJ—(lll tin-tr toes to win, always;
playing bang—up snappy baseball,
and showing a team spirit that here-
tofore has been sarl2y lacking.

A lot of the credit for the Yank
showing must no to the Babe. Ills
Iimchmtlcal performance has had a
lot to do with it. His hitting. his
fielding. his lmsc-running—mll of
these have played a. prominent part.
But more than that is the personal
element. For be it understood Babe
Ruth in a man of personality. And
mechanical performance aside, tho
change in attitude on the part of
the Bamhlno has played as great a.
part as has that. improvement in
mechanical ability.

NEW YORK. Sept. 28.——-The
Giants. in order to become. accustom-

A|though the Yankees have played
at the Polo Grounds on more than
one occasion, no Giant has ever on-

The. New York Yankees will beat
the Giants in case the latter win the

NEW YORK. Sept. 28.——The
selection of the American three-
,vear-old to race Papyrus. English
Derby winner, in the 8100.000 ln-
ternational contest at Belmont
Park, October 20. may not be

lish thoroughbred. the Jockey
club, under whose auspices the.
race will be held. has until two
weeks before the contest to pick
the American representative. The
Jockey club also has the privilege
of namlnr an alternate.

Zev. Kentucky Derby victor and
star of the Rancocas stable, and
My Own. of Admiral Cary T.
Grayson's string, stand out as the
two leading candidates. with the
odds favoring the selection of Zev
which has bad a. more impressive
record for the season. ch won
the Lawrence Realization, first
official tryout, while My Own cap-
tured the National Trial Sweep-
stakes. the second test. They have
never met and efforts so far to
bring them together have failed.

meet a similar sub-committee of the
Canadian llndy governing the Inter—

ter of deciding upon the eligibility
of American schooner: for the in-
ternational race series. The Halifax
cup trustees have been asked to
clothe their nominees with similar
powers.

I’l‘he American committee held its
meeting tonight to consider a minor
sage received on Monday from the
Halifax cup trustees in which it was
declared that Gloucester has mis-
interpreted the new rules concern-

After thewmeetlng a telegram was
sent to Halifax announcing the at»

Don't be one bit surprised if Luis

tween love and business. He wants

him popularity and fighting oppor-
tunlttes and he is more 41in!) halt a

For instance. 'i‘ex Rickard is but
after a. Flrpo and Fulton bout. for
Madison Square Garden. The big
plasterer is here tooklng for trou-
ble and Tex wants to accommodate
by sending him against the "Wild
Bull." Little Freddie will surely
find it there. He would put up a
good light against Luis at. that. for
he is a. long raise hitter. clean hit-
ter and a hard hitter . Fred might

tremendous rushes. in close we
doubt if Fred would have much of a
chance. 1'! he could pick him of!
with lefts. as Dempsey did. he might

Firpo will be back in New York
