FARXSWOHTH. NEW YORK, Oct. 2S.1--New York baseball fans believe Judge K- M- Landis will deal leniently with Baba Ruth, and that the penalty for the "Kfng of Swat's" barnstorming tour will result in fine and reprimand. They figure the commissioner realizes a suspension would work more hardship on-the local magnates and, for that matter, the other seven cljibs than on the 1 Landis has been Quoted as saying P.uth's disobedience would not bring a fine but suspension. However, if the Judge make that statement it was while Babe still 'barnstorming, and his honor undoubtedly was figuring that the athlete would go through with his complete schedule.

But now that Babe has abandoned his tour and come forth with a manly statement that he made, a mistake and was badly advised, there to -be little doubt that will not deal out a sentence that will hurt Colonels- Huppert and Huston. A fine will have to be paid by A suspension, no matter how short it may be, will hurt the Yankees club and whatever cltfbs they meet during the suspension. TonigTH we had a little talk with the "Bambino." Here is what he said: "The reason I started barnstorming was something. 0 help baseball. Thp reason why I stop- TiSd was to show my appreciation for Colonel Huppert and Colonel Huston, who brought me to New York at enormous' expense and who treated me fairly and squarely ever since.

"As for Judge Ija'dnis have nothing but the highest respect fot him and the office he holds. Mj convictions on this tour, while misguided, were nevertheless sincere and genuine."

Seven Gomes or Nine The argument concerning' tlie number of world's series games to be played amounts tp this-After the seventh game there is usually a heavy -weariness upon all concerned. In 121, when Giants and Hed Sox fought for eight games, attendance on the final affair fell away from SO.OOO to 17.000. This last fall attendance at the game dropped from 35,000 to 25,000. It would have fallen still further if reserved seats hadn't been sold in advance.

Seven games is quite enough. There might be one way o( handling a. nine-game series. This woiild be to close out the season a week earlier than usual and make a. 'heavy cut in world's series prices.

For that matter prices charged at the last series were entirely too high. Thousands of fans had no (22 to put up for a reserved 'seat to four games, nor any $44 for a reserved seat to eight games. The Top Liner The fcplinsr in Eastern football next Saturday will be tho whirl between Georgia Tech and Penn. State at the Polo Grounds. State's strength is well enough known.

Georgia Tech is far stronger most of those who follow football in the East understand. Last fall, through November, there were certainly not two teams in the East that could have toeten Georgia Tech. And most of tha trna-chine is For action, snap, dash and general excitement the Tech-State affair will be one of the star spots ntlie calender. In forward passing-we have noticed that the man frenusntly gets to the right 1 place, but the pass is wide, over or short, Or the 'ball is thrown to the right place but the runner fails' to judge it properly. Tlie passing game is far from -being fully developed.

It is still in the ragged, uncertain of inconipleted development.

LOCAL BOXERS ENTERTAIN AT DEVON SMOKER No one can tell what -man will do in a world's series for the simple reason that a star will frequently go eight or nine days far off form, and Ji second rater will frequently through the season have eight or nine days where lie looks like a Cobb or Sisler.
