The Babes stomach ache throbbed
around the world Wednesday night
when he made his home run from
Detroit to have himself examined
and treated.
Babe Rests Well
1t Is generally believed, however,
that the famous slugger was more
frightened than seriously ill and
that his constitution and amazing
recuperaave powers will help him
shake off the ailment in hurry.
DR.. Edward King, the Yankees
consulting physician, was expected
to reassure Ruth's thousands of adj
mirers today or Saturday after
further examinations.
In keeping with the general opti-
mism, Mrs. Ruth told the United
Press at midnight:
THE Babe is sleeping just fine.
I am much relieved that he is get
ting such a good rest. No, we won't
know anything definite until DR..
King examines him again.
Loses Jauntiness
Immediately after Babes arrival
from Detroit Thursday with his
wife, DR.. King set at rest any
alarms that the home run hitter's
condition might be considered seri-
Gus.
The Babe" said DR.. King, "does
show Slight symptoms of Appendix
citis, but it will take a little more
time to diagnose the case fully. 1
have ordered him to remain in alb
solute quiet for the next two days,
during which 1 will keep him under
close observation. do not expect
an operation will be necessary"
Aside from his Slight limp, the
result Of couple of minor leg in
juries suffered recently, Ruth looked
healthy, without his usual jaunti-
ness.
