RUTH INJURED; IN HOSPITAL P st n. April 28—<U.R>—Just how ■ long Babe Ruth will remain off the New York Yankees’ lineup will be known after physicians at the Pet|et Bent Brigham hospital hold a consultation today.

He was 1 removed to the hospital for treatment. No bones were broken but he was held for observation. Running home in the sixth inning Ruth crashed into Charlie Berry. Red Sox catcher, and took la headlong plunge to the dirt. It was then that he received his ini juries — those which hospital attaches described as a "severe conI fusion." Though the leg pained him somewhat, Ruth insisted on remaining I in play and everything went along tine until toward the close of the | sixth inning. Then, when dashing after a long left field fly driven out by Tom Oliver, Sox batsman. Ruth appeared to stumble as he neared the fast-falling ball. When he failed to pick himself up. fellow team mates came dashing on to the field to the spot where Babe lay pros--1 trate. They picked him up. carried him to the Yankees’ club house and administered first aid. Mrs. Ruth, who was viewing the game from a box. came into the elubh, use, as a physician was examining Ruth's injured leg. "It's broken,’’ sobbed the Yan kees' star batsman. He was in ’great pain. He was removed to the hospital, where physicians diagnosed the in- ’ fury as a "severe contusion.” Com- ’ plete diagnosis, it was reported, | would be made today. o Bob Osborn Sold I I Chicago, April 23 —(UP) — The Chicago Cubs have sold Bob Or , bora, right-hand pitcher, to the ‘ Pittsburgh Pirates, the Cubs’ offic“ ■ announced today.
