It lies in the stadium lobby a couple of hiindred feet behind the home {plate from which he drove many |of the home runs that brought him fame. ‘The Babe, racked by pain and wasted by cancer for nearly two years, died Monday night in Me- morial Hespital at the age of 53. Many of those in line today camg from Massachusetts, Connecticut, Rhode Island, Upstate New York, New Jersey, Delaware and Mary- land. They came in autos, taxis and chartered buses. They stood patiently as the sun came up, a quiet, remembering throng. Children passing the bier knhew the Babe only as a legend. But their | parents remembered him in all his ebullient reality. He was a part of a fast-fading era, but many of the records he set still stand. Many in line had old associa- tions with the Babe they wanted to recapture momentarily at his Lier. | Tt was nearly midnight last night kefore the last of the mourners had viewed the casket. | The funeral will be held tcmor- TOW. ] - e \GROUSE, PTARMIGAN " SEASON: WILL OPEN " FRIDAY, AUGUST 20 | The hunting season for grouse |and ptarmigan will open this Pri- |day, August 20, and will close on | February 28.
