ST. PETERBURGH. Fla. Feb.
II lUP)-Drama lovers of this cul-
tural little resort city were de-
lighted today over what they con-
sidered the strong chance that the
stirring baseball play Desire Un-
der the Palms would be revived
here this winter.
Desire Under the Palms" with
those two talented Thespians-
Jake Rupert and Babe Ruth-in
the starring roles. enjoyed much
success here for many seasons. The
play derived its name from the
fact that each year when Rupert
and Ruth met under the palms to
argue salary. each was desirous of
chiseling as much from the other
as possible.
Then Ruth retired and Rupert.
by his own admission, bit tired
of saying the same lines over and
over again. gladly abandoned it
Now it seems as if he Will have
to revive it to provide starring
roles for two young actors in his
troupe. Joe Di Maggie and Lou
Gehrig.
At the risk of incurring the
wrath Of the older drama critics,
who swear by Ruth's past per-
formance. and who consider as
blasphemous the suggestion that
someone else could give it more
meaning. I must say that I believe
Di Maggie and Gehrig Will bring
new life to the role.
You know the part, of course.
That OF a baseball player who. al
though he is making more than
the President. and is fully aware
that he would be lucky to make
one-f.ftieth the sum at anything
else. swears by all the stars above
second base that unless his salary
