* Babe Ruth starts record book dominance
* New York Yankees
* Home Run king

Page 10 has a small one column heading: "Ruth Equals Mark, Wins Game" See image for brief report here. First report coverage Babe Ruth tying the single season home run record that was also held by him. Notice it was in the middle of July with 2 1/2 months left in the season. Was this when Babe Ruth started his dominance as a home run hitter ? Sounds like it.
