Twenty - f ive years ago Denver won the first Western league pennant. J,ast year ■opped the champion ship, its fourth since 1900. What team Vv ill-win the 1925 flag? That's a 'ouystiun many funs would like to fjiyivo answered this very day. a Preparations have been going on ' fur some time in the southern towns ,oi the Western for the opening of •the season lliis afternoon. President Tearney, husky official of the gir ..guit, has purchased' a large trophy ,-hud w ill hand same to the ulub owner yw ho has the largest opening day ,'crowd at his ball park. , Harney Burch's Omaha Buffaloes, champions of the league last year, open against the Oklahoma City In dians in the latter's new ball park this afternoon. The chances arc that the- Buffaloes and Tribe will play be fore the largest opening day crowd flilv p. in. Oklahoma City is a good >asfthall town, and the fact that Omaha won the championship last season adds ftj the drawing power. * The Buffaloes start today with eight members of the championship cluh missing from the 1925 Omaha payroll. In place of the eight Buf faloes who have gone fo other fields, Uwner llurcli believes he has the nec essary strength ami speed to give Omaha another pennant. " Like the other seven league meni-t biers, Omaha*is weak in pitching. ••July one veteran of the 1924 pitch ing staff is back in the fold. His -11111110 is "Bill" Bailey.

Irftope is the best of tlie jot. Harris is -aid to lie pretty good, while Wetzel .still nurses a hum arm.

Augustine figures that if he can knock out Strong he will be in line for more fistic engagements In this tow'n. On the other hand, if Strong duplicates his feat of several weeks ago and kayoes the St. Paul middle weight, Augustine will be through as a fighter here. No one knows that any better than Mr. Augustine him self and he is working like a Trojan so that he will be in good physical condition Friday evening. Both Strong and Augustine are working out at the Business Men’s gymnasium. George Teager, matchmaker for the Spanish-American War Veterans, who are staging the show, has ar ranged three IP round bouts as the star attraction. Besides the three 10 rounders, Teager Is lining up a good list of preliminaries. KEARNS TO ENTER THEATRICAL GAME lavs Angeles. April 18.—Jack Kearns, who business managed Jack.

EW YORK, April I... -According t o estimates, furnish ed gratis and for what they might be worth, by the New York Yankee manage ment, “Babe” Rutli will doff the pa jamas and don the cleated brogans on or about Monday of next week. He will return to the lineup not later than next Wednes day or Thursday, and it will be a great thing for the box office and "Babe”'Ttuth. Whether it will reaet to the benefit of the ball club, indi vidually, is a question that practical baseball men today were inclined to dispute. ^ Through no fault of his oun, * Ruth's presence in the Yank lineup seems to have a depressing effect on the rest of the outfit. Its morale, under the»e circumstances, appears to have something in common with the ballet that flits about in the immedi ate rear of Pavlowa. Having no hope of contesting the limelight with the Incomparable one, they often fail to do themselves justice. The Yanks are tnurh the same. They lean on Ruth's ability to such an extent tfiat some rieini-genitis coined (he catchline, to-wit: “A* Ruth goes, so go the Yan kees.” The truth of the stork phrase is so starkly apparent that it ha* lived on down through the years of the Yankees' greatest successes. If Ruth lias a had day it is all too seldom that some inspired Yankee steps out with a mitigating per formance. They are aggravated victims of, the inferiority complex. Yet, when the noble fellow Is flat, on his back and Hie Yanks arc on their own, what then? They usu ally pi; > great baseball, the kind of baseball of which men like Meusel. Pipp. Ward. Dugan. Scott and others are capable. They did tlii* yesterdav in heating the ehanipions, 5 to 1, with Ruth no nearer the scene of action than tile private ward of a hospital. Mis understudy, Ben Paschal, even went so far a* to smite a lionier. \\*uld lie have done the same if Rutli had fanned several moments earlier? I doubt it 4 As a matter < f fa •. t Yank- t n. played better Kail than the first six weeks of the 1922 season, when the great man was in exile for having flouted the authority of judge Land:* Forgetting Ruth, they remembered themselves and topped the field with their makeshift array. If I remem ber correctly, Chick Fewster, filling in for Ruth, socked a home run in the opening game just as Paschal did yesterday. Then Ruth returned and the Yanks stepped back into character. They beoame pretty much the one man l»ail club, in attitude if not in actuality. This, by the wav, is no part of a knock at Ruth. In hitting, run scoring and driving in runs he does as much for his club as one man could humanly ilo. But that i* the trouble. He does so much that the rest of the club seems to have fallen into the attitude of "let George do it And George do. s. _ # I \t bloux (ilj —(ilrnn Mllliran.
