vV New Low Price KIAJG IS in wtvac miara ran hitting. One veteran Philadelphia critic said rather guardedly at the time that Foxx had the power to hit like Kuth, and fi ever a player came along to equal Ruth's mark it would be Foxx. Today it seems certain that Jimmy will eventually break the Babe's record, fx not this year then in the near future. The FhiiadeJphia nailer has a massive, pair of shoulders and he swinrs in the true starrer style. Oddly enough, the man who first discovered Foxx was none other than Prank Baker, first home- run king.

Baker won the homer crown four times in a row from 1911 te 1914, his highest mark being It four-ply blows in 1913. Babe Ruth, who inaugurated the modern era of home-run slugging, broke all previous record when he smacked out 29 homers in 1919.

We've seen it happen time and time again. noouiy rana woo nnvo zouowed boxing And wrestlins; here over a period ot years have noticed the same thing.

Even the second Jones-Reed championship wrestling match, while it was far from 'being a washout, lacked much of the kick" of the first one. There's Just something about a rematch after great batUe. that falls to click. Either the second match is one-sided, or the boys cant get BP 1 the irej that carried them through the first one. Maybe they're embarrassed because of what Is expected ot them, and that makes their efforts appear put on." The real explanation prob ably is the variability of ath letic performance which we have mentioned heretofore.

In the case of Lett tinea, the -rariAMlitr was explained a doe to an injured ankle. But there's always something. Speaking of the Jones-Reed match, fans here who fondly imagine the presentation of the Mid-west association belt to Henry Jones settled the world wel terweight title aioestlon for good. are due for a rude awakeninr. "The national boxing and wrestling magazine, rates Jack Reynolds of Cincinnati as- champion, 'And who do yon suppose is second?

Hy Shar-men tH! Salt Lake City is fifth. However, don't throw up your hands la disgust. The Ring? is just a magazine and not official. The Midwest association has as much right to crown champions as anybody, and its tournament was tho most comprehensive that has beta held recently. A he is of iyji.

wiuz mwin ojnatwv, O1 of the most notable fea tures of the current baseball camnaira feas been the ter rific batting of Jimmy Foxz, right-handed slugger of the Philadelphia Athletics. "Double-X Jimmy" has succeeded Al Simmons as the idol of Philadelphia fans, who are also ton tine him as Babe Ruth's legiti mate succcessor as King of Sluggers. It is highly questionable that Foxx can hit a ball as hard as the peerless Babe at his best, but baseball men in general concede that Philadelphia James is the hardest- hitting right-handed batsman of all time. Foxx came to the Athletics Just about the time when Babe Roth was at his peak. At that time bo one dared predict that there was a player in sirht who would ever ap proach the master mauler la home- the southern division, will invade the Brooks diamond in hopes to even the score; Brooks having won the first game 8 to 2.

Ray Gardner will do the hurling for Brooks; while Charles Batchelor will do the receiving. After this game Brooks will endeavor to schedule a game with the Salem Senators. Four of the Brooks regulars were formerly Senator players and are aching for a chance to play the Capital city team. Brooks' team batting averages appear: AB L.

TURNER TO ME BROOKS 1 SUM HDBSOIITOH, i i time on the name Ruth became synonymous with home-run hitting, and the Bambino proceeded to make himself a secure place as the greatest slugger the world has ever seen. rood many years have passed since Rath first ascended the four- base throne, and the Babe is now dose to the end of the trail.

Ruth has flashed some marvelous slug- ring this year, in spite of his advanced are and several unfortunate injuries, bat he himself has said that will retire from regular play azter a year or two more. The Babe 88 now and this is his 19th year active baseball service. And although neither Foxx nor anyone dae can ever fin the Babe's shoes when he steps down, Philadelphia Jimmy looks like the nearest approach te a second Roth that well see for a long time.

Some of these big stars may have a subconscious reeling of condescension At playing under a man who was the Great Doctor Spears un derstudy.
