Gehrig Laid To Rest Public Mourning In Bronx Church
The body of Lou Gehrig lay in a mahogany coffin at a vine covered church near his Bronx home after a two year battle with a debilitating disease.

Babe Ruth attended, moved to tears, and close friends like Bill Dickey and Joe McCarthy offered condolences.

Power use per major league night ball discussed
A power company engineer notes that 3000 kilowatts used per major league night would scarcely heat a couple of aluminum saucepans, while minor leagues use far less. About two tons of coal are needed to produce 3000 kilowatts of electric energy, illustrating the high energy cost of night games and the impact of such consumption on the industry.
