GIRL POSES AS
RUTH’S SECRETARY
NEW YORK, Feb. 1.—A» though
Babe Ruth hadn't been In enough em
barrassment of his own making, a
young woman, arrested at Brooklyn
navy yard for trying to crash the gate
past the marine sentries on guard there,
caused him further discomfort by
claiming .to be his correspondence sec
retary. “This was the first Intimation
that the Babe had a secretary, real or
Imaginary, and friends of the large
Bambino erven went so far as to say
they never even knew he had corre
spondence.'
However, that was the story of the
young woman, a person not discomfort
ing to the eyes, who gave her name as
Miss Babe Schein and said she was
just 21. She stuck to It. gamely, not
withstanding certain flaws. For In
stance, she said she was preparing to
accompany the Babe at Miami, Fla.,
during his spring training there. This
seemed erroneous In view of the fact
that the New York Yankees will train
at liev/ Orleans and not Miami.
