l.i-hman Preliminary Monroeville .11, Monroe 20. —o- —— Nurse Says Ruth's Condition Serious New York. Jan 16 — (TP) — | The motherly little nurse who ha*' helped look after tiie on<" mighty Bairn Huth for 51 days, wasn't very optimistic today about his co.idl tion "He's just so-so, and you ■ a n't see him." she said Other hospital official*, however, described the Bab&'s condition a« i “good" today and added he ha i ' *i>ent a restful night. The gray-haired woman, who stands guard outside Ruth's door to enforce the hlg "no visitors*' sign tacked up on it. said that he didn’t seem to be very much interested in anything. * “He doesn't talk very much, hsleeps very little and has been in a great deal of pain.” she Mid. She told of the all-time Yankee home hero's brave fight against almost unbearable pain, his courage fn submitting to a sometimes fatal operation when he knew it might not bring him any relief, and his discouragement at not recovering from the operation any more quick lyHe has had just three official visitors since the operation was performed on Jan. 6. his wife and two men who look after his business affairs and answer his correspondence, she said. She made it plain that the kids who reportedly "crashed the gate' to see the Babe several days ago. didn't get by her. “.Mr. Rutth asked to see the children himself." she said. “He walks up and down the corridor once each day." she explained “Well, on this day there were some children who were with parents visiting other patients. They saw- him and recognized him and of course they went right up to talk to him. "When we started to chase them away, he stopped us and told the kids to come on in to his nsim. He in auch a good-hearted inan.” But*she said that outside of hl* ■ one stroll up and down the corriI dor once each day, he didn't show much interest In anything — "not even sports." "He hasn't talked at all about what he intends to do when he get* out of the hospital." she said She said that he showed some interest in items from the newspapers about his condition •‘He always wants to see th" stories about him and I show them to him." she said. “Today. I show ed him the paper and he read a story that he was much improved. That cheered him up a lot.” She said Huth turned to her and 1 said "no they nay I'm getting bet- [ ter well, that * swell."
