Little Negro Returns
: Record Ball to Ruth

Special policemen made frantic
search of the bleachers in the
Polo grounds Monday to locate
the ball Babe drove there for his
record-breaking homer. Their
most diliGcnt efforts were with
out avail. After the game a
timid little negro approached the
Yankee clubhouse and was about
to be chased from the grounds.
He eluded the doorman, however,
and presented to Babe Ruth the
thing the sIuggcr thought was
hopeIessIy lost. "Ah didn't nim
to try to keep de ball. Mistah
Babe, but ah jest hadter come
an give il TO yo' mah own se'f.
An ah hoped maybe yo' all might

tion than the youngster dreamed
