Ruth was a big threat In those days, but that big bat of his no longer carries the base-hit dyna mite with which it was once loaded. "Ruth hao lost confidence in his ability to hit, and without It he Is only an ordinary batsman." There you have the opinion of one of the best pitchers in the American League. "Ruth lacked co-ordination In his hitting last summer." remarked another pitcher. Ho was out of tune all summer. The eye. the brain and the arms were not acting In uni son Co-ordination la more or less a gift, and they say once lost. It is about the hardest thing in the world to regain.
