CHICAGO, June IH-iA*!—Eddie*
Waitkus, j’hilidclphia baseball star,
was quoted today as saying he in
tends to press for prosecution of
the young woman fan who shot him
Wednesday.
The Chicago Heradd-American.
quoted Waitkus as saying
“They say it is divine to forgive,
but I’m not going to be divine
where slip’s concerned.
“If she'is found sane, I’ll prose
cute her personally. If not, I will
expect the authorities to see that
she is placed ih a mental institu
tion.
“She spems to think this is a
joke, : but I don’t. She should be
taken off the street the same as
a mad dog, because she is obvious
ly mentally ill.”
Waitkus was not allowed visitors
this afternoon after undergoing u
minor operation to drain an ac
cumulation of blood from his right
lung cavity.
His condition after the second
operation was reported “much im
proved” qnd one of his doctors said
he may leave the hospital in three
weeks, barring complications.
Meanwhile, the 19-year-old bru
