PORTLAND, Ore., (P Using
bunch, of Vcastoffs" from other Coast
league clubfi, Portland vas making a
determined bid for Its second straight
cjiamplpnshlp as the la$V vfeei or
play were entered. ' ' u '
The Beaers, under Spencer Abbott,
are' 6" veteran crew with the sklpier
apparently uninterested In develop
ing yoitng players for the majors. Of
the regular squad only Pitcher Ja
cobs, WUsou and Bpwman and 1:,
fielder Reeves have not played In
the uniform of other coast nines.
The Interesting phase of Portlands
play has neen its consistent winning
and crowding for top place In Vie
standing. Two catchers and frfl
pitchers leleased toy other club? of
the circuit have played In rare form
for the BeaVers; "
The Test showing of the "castofl"
bunch was mode In July when all of
the opposition was swept away and
Portland crowded Sacrament ou of
the- league lead.
' EarV 'Sheely 'has been with three
o$her coast teams while moat ot the.
regulars have been with at least two
other clubs. Johnny Monroe, second
sacker, was with the Missions of San
Francisco and Sacramento before Join
ing Portland.
Babe Ruth Finds
Himself Through;
Legs Failing Him
NEW YORK. Aug.' 31 W - The
habit ot writing finis to Babe Ruth's
baseball career, a popular winter pas
time for years, now has extended to
the home run king himself,
"r guess I might as well hang up
my spikes,"' he said mournfully last
night. ."I can't sign up as a player
next year. The legs won't stand It.
I might get by at first .base, tout not
in the outfield. I'm through."
While the 'boys have been guessing
'him Into .the management of either
the White Sox or the Red Sox next
season. Ruth knows nothing about it.
"That's up to several other people
besides myself," he said. "I'm silll
the property of the Yankees. If
another club wanted me for manager,
they would have to make sort of a
deal with Col. Ruppert. It's tip "to the
owners of the other clubs. I havon
been approached, even unofficially, by
anyone."
The Babe then had another Idea,
"Maybe I'll just voluntarily retire
for a year. I could stand a long va-
cation and then see how things work
out In 1936."
He'd like to go to Bermuda and
Mrs. Ruth would prefer Europe- The
Babe guessed they'd probably com
promise on Europe.
