Babe Didrickson Zaharias '
Outstanding Woman Athlete
By TED SMITS
NEW YORK. Feb. IS (.W
For twenty yeara a alender Amer
ican girl of Norwegian blood has
dominated women'a sports interna
tionally. So it was to be expected
that Babe Didrickson Zahariaa
would be overwhelmingly select
ed as the greatest female athlete
of the first half of the twentieth
century.
Eleventh and last of the snorts
titans chosen in the Associated
Press midcentury noil, the Babe
is unchallenged in versatility.
She wen world fame at the 193
Olympic gamea by taking two gold
medals and losing a third on a
technicality. In 1947 ahe became
the first American to win the Bri
tish women's golf championship,.
Cms Right On
She waa noted even before 1932;
she has gone right on winning af
ter 1947. Out of S61 first place
votes cast by the nation's sports
writers and sportscaste's, she re
ceived 319. Only 34 rated her in
second place, and five in third.
On the basis of three points for
first, two for second, and one for
third, the Babe amassed a total
of 1.030. Helen Wills Moody, the
tennis immortal, ws second with
394; Stella Walsh, the track stsr.
was third with 136, followed by the
Dutch Olympian, fanny Blinkers
Koen, with 107.
Bsbe Didrickson csme along at
the close of the fabulous twenties,
and she is still a top olf conten
er one of the few direct competi
tive links with the decade called
sports.
four times previously she has
won AP polls, being chosen as out
standing woman athlete in 1932,
1945, 1948. and 1947, the only quad
ruple winner.
Versltlle I
It was Mrs. Zshsrias' veratility
that lifted her to a niche alongside
Jim Thorpe, voted the greatest
male athlete of the past 50 years.
A true great in track and golf.
she also played a superb gsme of
basketball and baseball.
After the 1932 Olympics, Grant-
land Rice, a sports observer not
given to gushing, said of the Babe
. V. I. Pit Off. H I. 4
that she waa "without qu
the athletic penomenon of all time,
man or woman."
That, mind you,' was before she
had ever competed in golf (her
first was in 1934) or had even
dreamed about setting the amas
ing record of winning 17 consecu
tive amateur golf tournaments.
Mildred Ella Didrickson was
born June 28, 1912, in Port At
thur, Texas, the sixth in a family
of seven. Her father, Ole, a car
penter, had migrated from Nor
way, Called "by"
Her family started calling her
"Baby" but switched to "Babe"
when she hit so many home runs
in school games a bow in the
direction of Babe Ruth, the base
ball winner in the AP'a mid-century
poll.
By 1930 the Babe was a sensa
tion in Texas in basketball and
track, winning 92 medals in the
latter sport in two years. She wis
the individual star of the 1932
Olympics at Los Angeles a flam
ing competitor with stringy hair
and a conspiclous indifference to
cosmetics or seductive clothes.
Through the years, however, the
Babe has blossomed out as a wo
man of considerable personal
charm, mighty handy with a mouth
organ and at singing blue ballads,
and devoted to her Mammoth hus
band, George Zaharias, whom she
married in 1938. Zaharias, an ex
wrestler, now is a promoter.
She is currently competing in

In October of last year she was
signed as the full-time professional
of the Sky Crest Country club at
Chicago, the first of her sex to

It is significant that of the three
women athletea who received
enough votes to be termed in the
competition with Mrs. Zaharias, the
second place winner, Helen Wills
Moody, came out of the golden

many as the greatest of all women
