Port Jefferson Echo
November 17, 1923


On his way home from Riverhead, where
he had played baseball last week, the great "Bambino" Babe Ruth
stopped at Heene's Coram Inn and gave a dinner and reception to Miss
"Babe" Schein who was the chief hostess. Miss Schein is also the
great batter's secretary.
After some good "Eats' prepared by the
culinary expert, Mrs. Heene, dancing and merrymaking were indulged
until the wee hours, when the guests departed for the Great City,
determined to return soon again.
Amongst those present, besides the
mighty Babe and Miss Schein were Jack Scott, Harry Hesse, John Fae,
Paul Dietz and wife, Mr. Savage and wife, Miss Lillian Russell, Mr.
Press, Miss Helen Russell, Mr. Sweeney, Mr. Hupfel, Carl J.Hayser.
E Heene had the reception rooms tastily
decorated with fall wildflowers and oak leaves, which made a pretty
contrast with the latest designs of sport suits worn by the ladies.
As Babe Ruth and some of his fellow
players met with an accident on their return from Riverhead last
Friday night, they were compelled to stop at the Coram Inn for
dinner. One of the men named Scott, had an appointment in New York,
and hired J. Baczinsky to take him to the city. Accompanied by Will
Wittschack, they motored in, returning on Saturday.
