BABE RUTH SAYS: I see by the papers that Commissioner I andin is receiving many complainta about the umpiring in the major leagues this season. That some of the American League gesticulatora should be more efficient than othera goea wtihout saying. ' Billy Evaneae are few and far between and it isn't to be expected that every member of Ban Johnson's staff should be as capable aa he. Some of the othera are not far behind, however, and it is my peculiar notion that the umpiring in the American League thia year is better, on the whole, than at any other time within the apan of my major league experience. Evans has been called the "perfect umpire," and in my opinion he is all of that. He seldom makes a miatake in hia judgment on strikes and balls, his calling of plays on the bases is practically 100 per cent perfect, and, in his case, exceptional ability , is coupled with splendid tact and a tem perament worthy of a diplo mat Unlike aome umpires I could name, Evana will ac knowledge a mistake when he makes one, but does it in such a way that it doe not weaken his hold on the situation or Impair the respect in which he is held by the plsyers.

Col lins has played In more world series games than any other major league player. (By Eddie Collins) Frequently I have been asked the question, "How does it feel to nlay in a world series?" I can at least say, 'not monotonous, even though I have participated in six.' Tho toughest part of any wiwid series, ai far us the mental or ner vous strain Is concerned, that 1 have ever experienced has been when I whs out of uniform. Once in my baseball togs out on the field and in the game, I've never felt it i any different from any regular; reason affair. But in between i games especially if a postpone ment occurs or the team is idle traveling, then is when I ve felt II at eao, with a longing for it to ) r.vor anil to ho mill's iwiv from Frequently a world series will make or break a promising player. I recall one specific instance In the case of Wallle Schang. His First Time Up In 1913 in his first game the first time he came to bat against the Giants, Barry was on first, no one i out. "Schangle" leaned over the bench and said to Manager Mack, "What sball I do?" meaning whether to bunt or hJt Connie hesitated for a fraction of a sec ond, then said to the kid, "You go up there and use your own judg ment." Schang attempted to bunt the first, fouled it off, and on the very next ball flashed Barry the hit-and-run sign. And bang went a base hit to center on which Barry made third and "Schangle" pulled up at second on the throw in. That play alone I honestly believe gave Schang more confidence than any base hit he ever made before or BILLY EVENS SAYS The word "love" has always been a knock to the tennis game. That word gave the impression to the outsider, who knew nothing of the game, that tennis waa a sport for "sissies." There have been a number of movements started to eliminate the undersirable word from the game, but none of them got any where. V Apparently the officials of the game have finally decided to cut the word, without any fuss being made about it. During the tennis championships at Philadelphia the umpires in the matches were instructed to an nounce "15 Tilden" instead of "love 16" or "15 love." A similar change was noticed in announcements of the results of the gamo. "Games are two love" has become "games are "two to nothing." The elimination of the word "love" by the tennis officials will meet with the approval of tennis players the country over. It has been more or less of a joke on some big, husky player to have the word "love" constantly tacked onto hie play. Incidentally it will remove for all time the tendency oo the part of outsiders, who are entirely Ig norant of the demands of the game, to ridicule the sport simply because the word "love" haa al ways been ao prominently men tioned in connection with the play. Tennis it a strenuous sport, a game for red blooded Americans. It is high time that such an ef feminate word was removed from a sport that calls for so much courage and stamina. LEE BOLTLIKE A BOLT PITCHES THE " POINTERS TO VICTORY Durham, Sept. 22. Eating out of hia hand like a baby taking candy for some big hearted father, Lee Bolt, High Point's speed artist, twirled the Pointers to a 4 to 0 victory here. . ;:. "Neither team did much hitting but the High Point boys had the edge.

Once in a great while over-confidence will beat a team in a world aeries. One shining example of this was the 1!U landslide that overtook the Athletics against tho "cocky" Braves. It nearly beat tho Red Sox in 1!12, but they man aged to overcome it and finally won out. "Do you think the fact they are playing for big stakes has any er feet on tho players, and da some often see a dollar sign coming their way instead of a ball; is an other query that I've been asked. Strunk Pulls One (n general, I'd say no, because every player Is too absorbed In the game itself striving to win, rather than figure out his share of the gate. I do recall a certain bit of jest that waa pulled by Amos Strunk in 1913 on the play that ended that series and one that afforded three i or four of us a good laugh after ward. It was on the Polo Grounds, and I.arry Doyle hit a high fly toward short right which Eddie Murphy caught. Amos, Mclnnis and I were close to him when he was about to make the catch. Just before he did "Strunk io" hollored, "Squeeze that bird, there's $30,000 depending on it." Which had reference to the Snodgrass muff of the preceding year. Needless to say "Murph" squeezed it, and the game and se ries were ovej. Connie Mack so far forgot him self, so enthusiastic and joyful did he become, as to do a miniature wr dance on the bench in the eighth inning of our final against the Cubs in 1910. game Once later, I remember, be got up to get drink of water during a game against the Giants, but these are the only two instances I can recall where he ever moved from his usual place on the bench. In contrast to Connie is Bill Gloason. The Kid is never still; he's everywhere, encouraging his players every minute, and ready to cut off his arm or leg if he thought it would do any one of his men any good. It's great to be in a series, but take it from me, it's gTeater when Its' over and you have won. BABE RUTH CLOUTS OUT HIS 35TH HOMER; GETS DOUBLE ALSO TWrAit Snt. 92 Rho Ruth in yesterday's game between Detroit and New Tor xanxs, Knocxea out his 85th home-run of the sesson. He also got a double. Babe's slugging saved the day, the Swat Bambino being respon sible for four runs' A CIRCUS BOOKED FOE SALISBURY OCTOBER 7 Salisbury is to have its first circus of the year on Saturday, Oc tober 7, when the Sparks ahowa come here. A letter received here several days ago from tha Sparks people stated that while the show would come into this section Sal isbury was not included in the itinerary. However, the advance agent has made some changes In the route and was here yesterday making the initial plans for the coming of the shows here October 7. The Spafks circus is a favorite in Salisbury, having wintered here a number of years and the Messrs. Sparks have a host of friends here, all of whom will be glad to know that they are to stop here, if oply for a day. The shows have been wintering in Macon, G., since giving up ths Salisbury winter quarters several years ago. It Is said the owners and managers of the ehow still have a "home like" feeling for Salisbury and in some respects prefer this city as a winter home to Macon. YANKS CONTINUE MARCH TOWARD THE AMERICAN FLAG Detroit, Sept. 22. -The New York Yanks took every game of the series here yesterday from De troit, winning yesterday's game by the close margin of 9 to 8. Heavy batting featured. The Yankees,v by winning, se cured a firmer hold on the pennant honors of the' American' league. FLYING WORKSHOP WILL ACCOMPANY PLANES IN AIR London.
