Lou Gehrig Congratulating Babe Ruth

(Original Caption) Babe Ruth and Lou Gehrig. Lou Congratulates Runner-Up. Bronx, New York: Runner-up in home runs is something to be proud of even if the runner-up is himself a former world's champ. That's why Lou Gehrig, Yankee first baseman, extends this hearty congratulation to Babe Ruth following the latter's 43rd uninterrupted circuit at Yankee Stadium. Lou himself still holds the crown by the narrow margin of one home run, his total being 44.
