Description
(Original Caption) Mayor LaGuardia speaks into the microphone in praise of Lou Gehrig, the late first baseman of the new York Yankees at ceremonies today during which a monument was unveiled in honor of the slugging first baseman and long-time playing captain of the team. Both teams taking part in today's double-header stand lined up with heads bared, Yankees on the left and the Philadelphia Athletics at right. The Gehrig memorial is to the left of a tablet in memory of Miller Huggins, former manager of the Yankees under whom Gehrig once played. On the wall beneath the bleachers (extreme right) is a tablet to the memory of Colonel Jacob Ruppert, baseball patron and owner of the Yanks.
