Babe Ruth, Ty Cobb Clash on
Golf Course in Charity Play
By BILL KING
NEWTON. Mass.. Juno 25
(A't Babe Ruth and Ty
Cobb, who have retained their
famous batting habits for golf,
are expected to employ them
today when, after all their
years of friendly bickering,
they come together at Com
monwealth for the first round
of their "grudge" match for
charity.
During their sensational
careers, which earned them
honored places in baseball's
hall of fame, the Babe was
the gome's most powerful leftr
handed slugger and Ty, the
most scientific hitter.
Nowadays Cobb, at 54, and
Ruth, seven years younger,
play golf about the same way
they hit baseballs and they do
it almost equally well, judging
by their practice rounds on
Commonwealth's lengthy par
72 course. Ty turned in a 78
and the Babe had rounds of
70-80. Experts who studied
their games rated them evenly
matched.
While they were putting
them together, Cobb's shots off
the tecs and on the fairways
were straight but only of aver
age length. But he was dead
ly accurate on the greens.
Ruth clouted his wooden shots
as far as he did when he was
compiling his 60-homer record
but he lacked his rival im
mortal's skill with the putter.
Since both have accepted
wagers with others on the out
come of today's 18-hole match,
which will be repeated In New
York on Friday, they appeared
eager to arrange a friendly bet
before going to the first tee at
10:30 a. m. PST.
