THE IEFFERSONIAN BIG LEAGUE BASEBALL Gee, thereis Babe Ruth! ,Hundreds of CMTC boys were afforded an opportunity this summer to see the ' King o' Swat do his stuff when the St. Louis Browns were hosts to the student soldiers at Sports- man's Field, St. Louis. During the second game of the series with the New York Yankees, July 28, the CMTC lads saw Babe take a lot of mighty swings at the leather, only to fan three times in a row. Gosh, he's a big guylw was the common comment when Ruth dog-trotted out to his place in left field, right in front of the young soldiers from Jefferson Barracks. Special street cars transported the boys-three companies per afternoon-- straight to the ball park, where they detrained and marched to their places in the grandstand. ' 1 The Bambino, of course, was the chief center of interest during the series with the New York Yankees, but the CMTC boys saw a lot of fast major league baseball played during their visits to Sportsman's park. Other groups were guests of the Cardinals at the park earlier in the month. J. M. CANDISH, Co.
