Gehrig Has

A Good Cry On His His Day More Than 60,000 Fans.

: Turn Out to Pay Tribute | , To ‘lron Horse.

i NEW YORK, July 5 (U. P) —The/ big fellow stood there at home plate | and tried to speak into the micro- | phone, but he choked up and his fist | went to his eyes to push back the tears before he attempted to address | the crowd that had come to pay him | tribute. Even an “iron man” is entitled to] lone good cry, and Lou Gehrig had | his before nearly 62,000 admirers in|

3 ‘Yankee Stadium yesterday.

It was Lous formal farewell as

an active player in baseball, and |

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES °

never was there a more touching

scene on a diamond. It was a grand {tribute to Lou's 15 seasons with the | Yankees, to his almost unbelievable 2130 consecutive-game record that was ended in April by an obscure form of infantile paralysis.

Pat on Back From Jee

After a pat on the back and a reassuring word from Manager Joe McCarthy. who appeared to be alimost as affected as Gehrig, the former first baseman spoke his piece. “For the past two weeks.” he said. “vou’'ve been reading about what a bad break I had. But I want te say now that I'm the luckiest man on

Those words climaxed a 40-min-ute celebration of “Gehrig Day” between games of a double-header the {Yanks split with the Senators, and | when Lou had finished there was a | spontaneous roar from the stands.

Ten members of the Yankees’ great 1927 team had come to honor | “Locomotive” Lou. Each was intro- | duced and cheered, and except for Gehrig, it was Babe Ruth who re-|, ceived the greatest ovation.

Oldtimers Turn Out

The others whe came were Bob! Meusel, Mark Koenig, Tony Laz- | zeri, Waite Hoyt, Herb Pennock, | | Jumping Joe Dugan, George Pipgras, Bob Shawkey and Earl Combs, a Yankee coach. Among the other prominent oldtimers who turned {out were Wally Pip, whose job | Gehrig took at first base when he {began that consecutive game record | in 1925; Everett (Deacon) Scott, whose record of 1307 consecutive games Gehrig broke; Wally Schang and Benny Bengough. Mayor LaGuardia called Lou “a perfect prototype of the best sports- | manship and citizenship of this city and nation.” Postmaster General Farley said “vour name will live long in baseball ~1d wherever the game is played they will point with pride and satisfaction to vou and vour record.” Daniel M. Daniel, New York baseball writer, presented Lou a silver bowl and candlesticks from the New York Giants, and called him “the greatest first baseman of all time.” | It looked as if Gehrig was going |to break down after their eulogies. but President Ed Barrow of the Yanks walked over and put his arm ‘around Lou's shoulders. and the big Yankee captain bucked up noticeably. Among other gifts he received | were numerous silver platters, bowls and cups. a tobacco stand from the baseball writers, fishing rod and tackle from the Stadium grounds crew and a silver trophy from his fellow players.
