Pay Final Tribute To BasebalPs King ills, ' . By _JOE HALL NIIW YORK. Aug. l9 - (AH- New York said a last good-bye to Babe Ruth today with solemn hush and tears. Police estimated 0,000 persons were in huge St. Patrick's Cath- edral for the Requiem Mass. An- other 75.000 stood in Fifth Ave- nus and the Rockefeller Centre area surrounding the cathedral in the heart of the city. They were deathly still and many wept. When the mass ended at noon and the Babe was borne outside in a gentle rain and taken north on the avenue, many thousands of others lined the route. The co-rtege went through the “Bronx close to Yankee Stadium where Ruth smashed out many a triumphant homer and where 100,000 of his friends and wor- shippers streamed by his body as it lay in state Tuesday and Wed- nesday. r Si)! thousand others made their way to Gates of Heaven Cemetery III. Mt. Pleasant, N.Y., 30 miles north of the city in the highlands I‘ the Hudson River, for the committal services. Sunlight alternated with scud- ding cloud at the brief service conducted by three priests outside the cemetery receiving vault. When it ended after the crowd joined in the final prayer, Mrs. Claire Ruth, the widow, stood for a full minute looking at. the Afri- can mahogany casket covered with a blanket oi red roses and orchids which she had sent. Then, pale and composed, she drove away. Cemetery ‘employees gently carried the casket» into the vault where it will rest until the family decides on final burial plans. There was no eulogy at the cathedral mass. But Francis Car- dinal Speliman, in a special prayer which he composed, asked that the divine spirit "that inspired Babe Ruth t0 overcome hardships and win the crucial game of life may animate many generations of American youth." The casket was borac into St. Patrick's between a double row of honorary pallbearers headed _ by Governor Thcirnas E. Dewey and Mayor William O'Dwycr. rAri-fiil-ron.

Out. of a playoff berth, Knights nevertheless, as has been their wont, will provide the same stir- ring competition as has featured their games all season long, 0- 0 6- 3i . There is a lot to bqcaid to the credit of the Knighfsfsquacl. For the second season in a row, al- though playing the role of under- dogs, they have fought out every gai-ne to the last ditch; more times than they like to recall they have been given little chance to win; at times this pic-game prediction has come true but on others they have come up with victories that have surprised even their most rabid supporters. 0- 0- 0- 0 It takes plenty of courage, cs- pecially as far as youngsters are concerned to come through with such fighting displays. Again this season they have been shunted’ to the sidelines by superior teams but the spirit evident in their ranks will, we think, bear fruit in the future and already they arc looking forward to the start of next season when they can be expected to make a brand new attempt into getting into tho City playdown picture. O O I0 '0 Millionaires of the City Inter- rnedlatc“1.eaguc arc still in the running for a playoff spot. The calling. of last night's game has given than an additional breath- ing speil and although the writer cannot possibly see haw they can surmount ilk stiff task that is at present facing them, it. may be that we will have to retract our words and if this does happen, we will be first to do so. Or 6 O O Like the junior Knights of col- umbus team, the Millionaires have not only shown a lot of fighting ability in their losing efforts- but have also lped to keep the Ctly baseball l gue alive. Any fan who has seen them performing cannot say they have ever laid down on the job. - O II O O ‘Prue it is that at times they have been soundly beaten but just’. as true is the fact that they have always fought it out to the last out. At many times short of man power, they nevertheless have been nblé to fill the gaps and the some youngsters who helped the club carry on may in the near future provide the nucleus of a team that will be strong enough to as- cend to City League baseball heights. 0' O O O - Tho following tribute in well worth reproducing. 1t comes from the pen of the Hamilton spectators sports editor, Ivan Miller; 1t is given to few individuals, in a life- time, to occupy such a place in tho esteem and admiration o: ai- most an entire world, such as that held by George Herman Ruth, the beloved Babe of tho New York Yankees, who died last night. ~0- 0- 0 0 The idol of millions of baseball fans, big andxnall, oven in coun- trlcs where baseball is known only because of players like Ruth, the boy who emerged from the ob- scurity of n home for boys to be- come the‘ mightiest homo run hit- ter of all time, and st one time the highest-paid player in the history of the game, was "tho Babe" to everyone. _ .
