RUTH REFUTES
OLD AGE HINTS
BY FAST PACE
By ALAN GOULD
On the day Babe Ruth blasted hi
first home run Into the right field
bleachers I happened to have a brief,
monolyllaballc chat with the great
man as he sat, swathed heavily and
chewing vigorously, In the Yankee
dugout. The stenographic report ran
something like this:
How was he feeling?
"O, K. kid, except for this throat.
Still sore."
No doubt this would come around.
"Yeah, need some warm weather,
(though. Too blank ty cold for base
ball."
How did things look In general,
so far.
"O.' K."
Did the new A's Impress him?
"Not so hot. Still a breeze for us."
Everything was quite an right,
then?
"O. K., kid. See yuh later.
The gazelle-like maneuvers of the
Babe at the outset of the campaign
have brought discomfiture to the
camp correspondents who harped
steadily on Ruth's shortcomings
afield and on the bases.
They said he waa anchored In
right field, so he promptly started
out to cover more territory than he
haa handled in a couple of years,
galloping up and down the bank In
front of the bleachers and snagging
every hit that came his way. He naved
Gomez's great victory over Earn
shaw with a bare-handed catch.
They hinted he would need admin
istration support to negotiate the
bases, so he sttrtled one and all by
stealing second base against the
Aathletlcs one Sunday afternoon.
ftiayoe .ne can't keep up this oace
but the Babe no doubt Is having a
lot of fun, meanwhile, langhlng at
the boya. .
Ruth will draw the customers and
do his share, barring accidents, but
Lou Gehrig will do most of -the
heavy hauling for the world cham
pions this scaAon.
Going on his ninth consecutive
year without missing a single ball
game, Gehrig Is one of the marvels
of the game. He started his streak
in 1936 and only needs about 100
more games to top Everett Scott's
all-time record of 1307 gamea
played In succession. The wear and
tear of such in iron-man perform
ance seems not to have affected Col
umbia Lou in the slightest.
He doesn't have aa much worry
about his weigh as Ruth. His mode
of living and temperament favor a
long playing career. He Is hitting
the ball harder than ever and al
ready off to a better start than
usual in the home run derby, in
short, It lookat like a big year fori
the big eel-eater of New Rochelle. j

Making their Initial appearance at
the fair grounds, the Medford
Rogues yesterday defeated the Jack
sonville Miners by the lopsided score
of 31 to 2.
No mates, ' It was not a football
game, but a baseball game, and
thoroughly convinced local fans that
we have a ball team this year which,
without a doubt, will give any teams
in the etate a run for their money.
Heavy Hitting
The game was marked by heavy
hitting on the part of the Rogues,
who hit two Jacksonville pitchers.
Coffman and Mclntyre for a total of
10 safe blows. With the exception
of Lange, every member of the
Roguea got at least one or more hits.
Coy, catcher, led the attack with 4
hits. Clay connected for a home run
and two singles, while Green hit
two three-baggers. Although held

Williams held the Miners to three
hits and two runs In four innings.

Manager Halght and members of
the team were quite Indignant over
an article appearing In yesterday's
Mall Tribune which emphasised the
fact that the Grants Pass teams' were
claiming the championship of south
ern Oregon for this year. As basis
for their claim. Grants Pass stresses
the fact that they beat Eagle Point
two out of three games and that the
Oheesemakers were the only out
standing opposition. Evidently the
boys from the Psas overlooked the
fact that Medford has played Eagle
Point on three occasions, winning
all three gamea acore 4 to 3, 6 to 4,
and 4 to 1, ,
As a matter of fact, states Manager
Halght, "It's the first time that I
ever heard of a team winning or
claiming a championship In May. As
a rule, those matters are settled
along in August and September,
most teams hardly even starting be
fore Hay. Haa the Grants Pass man
agement overlooked the fact that
Klamath Falls. Coqullle, Medford and
even Oold Hill have baseball teams.
