Associated Press Sports Editor, NEW YORK, Jan. 31. (AP No one. Including Babe Butb himself, seems to be doing a great deal of worrying about whether the big fellow takes a 25. 000 "cut" In sslsry this yesr. Tbe Babe doeent need to, although he will be aatute enough to effect a compromise. If that la necessary, be fore he signs his 1033 contract. we sat down to talk things over, past and present, he dismissed the salary business with this aide remark: "It's a good thing X walloped that home run in tbe third game of tbe world series or they mightbave asked me to take a 850.000 cut. X sure got that one when X needed It Baseball's fatr-halred -boy. now nearicg 40 and about to start his 30th ytor tn the major leagues, has generally gained what be needed what be desired. Ha Is "fixed." IT nanclally, for life. No matter whether he quits baseball tomorrow but he has no more Idea of quitting baseball this year or next, than ha has of taking a parachute jump off the Empire State building. The Babe has knom the year when be squandered close to 8100.000. He admits It. Things were so bad that. at one time, on tbe Insistence of Mil ler Hugglns. half of Ruth's 883.000 salary -with the Yankees was kept by the club until the end of the sea son. But Ruth "blew It" as soon as he got tbe cash, anyway. The elderly home run slugger now Uvea the life of an urban squire dur ing the off-season. Aside from his family and evenings at home, bis main Interests are in playing golf, going hunting or fishing, attending the movies once or twice a week. Xt costs him probably from 818,000 to 830,000 a year for living expenses of tbe entire Ruth household. The rest goes Into the "sock, he says. Ruth has enough Invested now In annuity or Income contracts to guar antee blm, st any time he retires, up ward of 820.000 a year. He has pro tected his wife and daughters with similar Investments. He never dab bled much tn the stock market any way, though he Is somewhat proud of tbe fact he came off with a profit when he did. He doesn't like to gamble for high stakes. Five-dollar "Nassau" at golf suits him. Between his outdoor hobbles and his gymnasium work, the Babe keeps In good physical condition the year round. The days are gone when he could and did set the pace In any brewery beer-drinking contest or start off the tfri" -JtU a light breakfast of teak, potatoes, pie and a half dozen cups of coffee. He weighs around 228 these days, looks healthlee than ever, says his legs give him no trou ble during a days 36 holes of goll. Ruth has never broken 70 on the links, though he touched that fig ure onoe at St. Petersburg, but he has been shooting consistently around 75-70 In his winter rounds at the 8t, Albans club, Long Island. He has never had a hole-ln-one, but he would rather keep trying to bag one, as things are now. than to have the op portunity Increased by making the goir cups bigger. Brayton'i team took two out of three games last night In the Elks bowling tourney, rolling against the Rankin outfit. Thle was a bitter dote for the Rankin ss they clslm the honor of having Bill Rose, the biggest little bowler In the league. Rose did his stuff Isst night but It was not enough to carry his team to victory.

Be', 68 now. COLUMBUS, O., (AP) Baseball fans who can bark back to the days of 1890 will recall a tall, lanky youth In the pitching ranks of the old Cleveland Spldera In the National League. Twenty-one years lster, In 1811. that rookie pitcher waa destined to leave Via big leagues with an Ill ume record of 611 games won out of 873. He waa Cy Young that grand old man of baseball. Denton T. Young, or Cy. after his retirement from the big leagues came back to Peoll. a hill town In eastern Ohio, to settle down on a farm near the place where he waa born, 88 years ago. With one man to help him. Cy operates a 180 acre farm which hla wife's grandfather, David Miller, homesteaded from the government In 1830. But Cy saya he 'a "no shakes" aa a farmer. "I manage to keep busy wltft our sheep, hogs, chickens and other stock, but I'm not much of a farmer. I do enjoy life down here in the hills snd when I get the urge X csn always drive to Cincinnati or Cleveland to see a ball game." he says. The mantel of Cy's f:replace In his home Is lined with allver cups and trophies, teattmomala of his pitching ability In the big leaguee. One of hla valued possessions Is a parchment scroll on which his rec ord Is Inscribed In black snd gold. The closing statement on the scroll: "Baseball will be no. more when Cy Young Is forgotten.' Cy started hla 611-game march with Cleveland and pitched hla last on October 0. 1911, at Brooklyn. He alro holds the record for pitching three no run. no hit gsmee. Toe first i against Cincinnati on Septem ber 17, 1897; the second sgalnat Vie Philadelphia Americana on May 4. 1904. and the third against the New York Americans on June 30, 1808. And so while young rookies tn the big leagues set out to bresk Cy's records, the old pitcher enjoys life flown on the fsrm among the bills where he waa born.

Jan. 31. (AP) One of Wfllie (Gorilla) Jones famous punches today had placed him once again at the top of the American middleweight boxing heap. A lieht to the Jaw of Sammy Slau ghter tbat traveled little more than three Inches last night retimed to the Akron negro the National Boxing association title he lost a year ago Scarcely, however, had the 8400 fans concluded one of tbe wildest ovations in Cleveland's Ting history In tribute to the husky battler than they witnessed a weird finish of sn other fight that sent them home arguing. Ben Jeby recognized in New York state as the middleweight champion, won the unusual bsttle by decision of the referee, but as he climbed out of tho ring he left a wildly geatlcu la ting Paul Plrrone urging him t come back and fight some more. Plrrone had been floored six times In the first five rounds. When the bell clanged for the start of the sixth he sat unconcerned, obeying the com mand of his manager. Eddie Mead, to wait for a count of nine. Jeby, floored once himself, stood punching the sir above Plrrone'a head and beg ging the Clevelander to "come on" as Referee Freddy Block pumped out the count. When Plrrone'a handlers finally gave him the "go on," Block lifted Jeby's hand In token of a technical knockout. So. while Plrrone stood in the center of the ring asking more fight and spectators milled about threatening dire punishment to Jeby and his handlers, Jeby donned his bathrobe and called It a night.

The following are some Interesting conclusions: Free Throws Vital 3U percent of the fouls attempted were shot from the foul line by the teams winning. 47.8 percent of the fouls attempted were "hot by the losing team. 8.9 percent fouls per game on the average were made by the winning team. 101 percent fouls per game were made by the losing team. Therefore, on the average, the call ing of fouls presents approximately a 20 percent advantage to the winning team, scores resulting from fouls con sidered. 55 percent of all games wera de- ' termlned at the foul line. 1 w.1rwan.sl in ieWnii ft K g FOR GILLETTE RAZORS on Texacos ball team which will play the Tevacos Jocklh, Howell, W. .Jones.

The Chemawas have their scalping knives sharpened to a hound's tooth, according to reports, and nothing short of a massacre Is expected. The Chemawas hav- trod rough shod over all opponents this year with the exception of the Salem high school which eeked out a narrow one point vlctlry recently. Included tn the teams that were ambushed by the dusky warriors are Lincoln, Ben son and Washington high schools of Portland. Oregon City and Dallas, Washington.
