' General Sport ' McGinnity, Brooklyn, holds the major league record for hitting bats- men--forty-one in the 1900 season. The woman's endurance swim- ming record is held by Miss Eileen Lee, London, who swam 36 1-4 miles in ten hours and seventeen minutes.

Bevil Rudd, eaptain of the Oxford- Cambridge track team that meets the Yale-Harvard group in Harvard sta- dium, trains on a pipe. The biz Oxford athlete puffs on a briar almost incessantly, He smokes even on the days when he is slated for gruelling tests on the cinder tracks and laughs at American train- ers who say it will hurt him, | "Why, it helps me a tremendous lot, really," Rudd said yesterday. "Over in Antwerp one of your Am- erican coaches told me to cut it out and see if it didn't help me. I tried it and ran third in the 400 metres. Then I smoked two pipefuls and won my next two events.' 4 Clubs and Distance.

He demands the big Master Mason plug, because to the last pipeful it gives him the best for the least money. But it so happens that "Babe'" Ruth swings a fifty-two-ounce bat, while Abe Mitchell revolves a seven- teen-ounce driver and brassie, whera the normal bat is around forty ounces and the normal driver is not above fourteen. And "Babe" and Abe are both record holders. Unusual phy- ical strength is needed to handle a heavy weapon with speed and rhythm, with the timing eft intact through the process of a" crashing blow. Bob McDonald, the big Scot, who is one of the longest drivers in America, uses a light club. * He could undoubtedly get -even greater dis- tance with a heavier club, but his di- rection would suffer. The marvel of Mitchell is that he can manipulate such a heavy weapon and still retain his accuracy and look of ease. He must have enough strength in his fingers, wrists and forearms to twist the head off a rhinocerous, whieh by many is considered the su- preme test, > ------ All nine men on a team are per- mitted to try to put out a base-run- ner, provided they do not block his path, The flyweight boxing limit is 112 pounds, SE ii little TOOKE | Lightwe rl | oll Collar A 0 A i ~ pnd . .
