About Babe's Background
Babe was born in 1895 at 216 Emory Street. Babe's real name is George Herman Ruth, but his family just called him Little Gorge. Babe was a big trouble maker. Babe had skinny legs, small feet, and was often over weight. Babe didn't listen to any one, not even his parents. so his parents left him at ST. Mary's Industrial School for Boys. They thought that St. Mary's would straiten him out, and they did. Brother Matthias was his teacher he helped Babe all the way up until Babe left ST. Mary's to play Baseball.
