BAMBINO UNWQRRIED BY
POSSIBLE CUT IN SALARY
By ALAJf GOULD.
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

GREAT CY YOUNG
OF
Cy Young, hero of three no
hit, no-run games, admits he's
no "great shakes' as a farmer.
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.

SHORT JOLT WINS
T TITLE
AGAIN FOR JONES
CLEVELAND. 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.

3U percent of the fouls attempted

47.8 percent of the fouls attempted

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- '

Medford's Tiger basketball squad Is
putting on the war paint this week
preparatory to an Invasion of the
Chemawa Indian Braves for a two
game basketball series Friday and
Saturday. 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

Portland. Oregon City and Dallas,
