DEATH
FASTENED BY
\ OVERWORK

NEW YORK, Sept. 26 G.N.SO.
"He wasn't happy unless he was
working, even though he was
repeatedly warned it would in
evitably hasten his death"
So one of the attending ply
sicians today summed up Ring w.
Lardner, humoriSt and noted
short story writer, who succumbed
to a prolonged illness at his East
Hampton q. L. home last night.
Jardner, who was 48, had been
in poor health since 1881. Heart
disease, complicated by other (.
mentS, was aScribed as the direct
cause of death but his life might
have been prolonged indefinitely,
physicians said, if he had not in
sisted on continuing his prolific
writing.
Won Fight With T. B.
AS far back as 1923, the creator
OF "You Know Me, AL" and other
catch lines and phrases which
have become part of the Ameri-
can vocabulary, waged a fight
with tuberculosis, but after travel
ing to Arizona and California, he
apparently had won the battle.
Two years ago he suffered
breakdown, and much of the time
since he had spent in a hospital.
Even there the renowned hu-
morist refused to let his illness in
terfere with his writing and for
months he contributed articles to
o weekly publication, generally un-
der the date line mo Visitors, N.
Y" il. which he turned his sar-
donic wit on radio stars and pro-
grams.
He had spent the recent weeks
at his Long Island home, where
members of his family we're with
him when he died. He is sur
vived by his widow, the former
Ellis Abbott, of Goshen, Ind,
whom he married in 1911, and
four sons, John Abbott, James
Phillips, Ring W., and David E.
Lardner, veteran newspaper
sports writer and credited with
revolutionizing sports reporting,
particularly baseball writing, was
born in Niles, Mich, in 1885 and
educated there and in Chicago.
He entered newspaper work in
South Bend, Ind, in 1905, and in
the next decade and half was
sports reporter or sports editor
on the old Chicago Inter-Ocean,
the Chicago Herald-EXaminer,
Chicago American, Boston Amerl'
can and Chicago Tribune and for
a time was editor of sports pub
lication in st. Louis.
Shortly after the World War he
left newspaper work to become a
syndicate writer and turned his
attention more seriously to short
story and play writing. His first
stories were broadly humorous
but always with touch of the
sardonic, but it was not until
about 1924 that the literary critics
suddenly discovered Lardner was
q master in the short-Story field
and proclaimed him a leading
literary light.
