By JACK SULLIVAN Canadian Press Sports Editor Canadian track and field offi- cials, particularly those around Toronto, get a little hot when someone mentions that they run meets for their own comfort. The charges for years have been that officials clutter up the infield and that the paying cus- tomers rarely know what's go- ing on. At one time in recent years track meets were held at the Canadian National Exhibition grandstand It was called the CNE props up in the infield and in any events of 100 yards or more the athletes were hidden behind these things for about 75 yards. CHANGES MADE Now that Toronto's Bruce Kidd and Bill° Crothers and Vancouver's Harry Jerome are reviving interest in the sport in this country with their s ome- times - sensational running in meets in the United States, offi- cials are perking up. They re- alize they've got a fairly hot commodity and now they are Canadian Olympic Training Plan and youngsters from just to Toronto for skull sessions and then the meet.

"'Money lost." He was recalling a post-sea- son barnstorming tour by a team that included Mays, Ruth, Fred Hoffman and Wally Schang of New York Yankees and pitcher Jeff Tesreau of New York Giants. "Ruth was to get $3,500 a day. weekdays, . $5,000 if we played' Saturdays and $6,500 Sundays. manager-banker, "Each day I would put the} Babe's earnings in a cigar box,} tape the box and mark the day! it.

Ruth, he said, was a great ballplayer, but the greatest was Ty Cobb. "Ruth could fill your park for 'you but Cobb would beat you in it." Mays, who pitched 11 winning seasons and compiled a life- time record of 205-127 including a 27-9 season in 1921 with the Yankees, still bears a foot'long scar on one leg from a run-in with Cobb's spikes. Twice in that game he had decked Cobb. ' "Cobb then dragged a bunt had to cover the bag, He came down into me spikes high and got even." s' best pitch was his fastball and one of them ended in tragedy.
