A
Babe Ruth' today finds himse
much in the same position Congress
would if it tried to slip over an ap-
propriation for dredging the Gull
0: Mexico on President Coolidge.
Babe thinks he ought to play in the
opening game with the \Vorld's
Champion Senators. He knows he
can't do that but he- feels that he
at least ought to be present as a
spectator.
l President Coolidge could most;
certainly and emphatically veto the;
dredging proposition. and just as
surely and emphatically did Mrs.
George Herman Ruth. aided and
abetted by Dr. Edward King. veto
the suggestion. rather hesitatingly
put to Babe. that he wrap up nice
and warmly and slip into the Stad-
w
I
ium to watch the boys do their
stuff.
The condition of Ruth is highly
satisfactory to Dr. King, who is the
omclal physician , of the Yankee
club. The stuff of St. Vincent‘s Hos-
pital. where the Babe is convales-
cing from his recent combined at-
tack of. influenza and indigestion.
agree with‘ Dr. King that while-
Ruth is enormously improved over.
his condition or last week he is still;
not in {it hcilth to witness a ball
game. .
Babe might possibly ignore. the
commands of his doctors in his an—
xiety to serve his public. But it is
generally understood that the Bam-
bino and Airs. George Herman Ruth
run a sort of cooperative home. She
runs the farm. the suite in town.-
the livestock. the motorsk‘her maid.
little Dorothy Ruth and the dogs.
..Babesays and does pretty much as
he pleases with the goldfish. There-
fore Mrs. G. HAL having said him
nay in all probability the Babe will
not attend today's shall game.
BRIDGEPORT. April ‘ 14.——Joe
Smith, manager of Lou Bogash, last
night accepted terms for a 12-round
bout between the Bridgeport mid-
dleweight and Harry Greb. king- of
the 180 pound division. The bout
willsbe a 12 round affair and may
not carry the championship for the
victor.
Smith accepted the contract otter-
ed- him by W. J. Langlols, of the
Empire A. A..~of Detroit. over the
long distance telephone last night.
Boxash is recuperating from an in-
' hand. received in his recent
bout yithd‘lger Flowers at Boston.

til;he 'meets Greb. He will start
