Removing strings containing numbers

If i have a string =

 " 30th Birthday WORLDCUP34 WORLDCUP'34 '04 "

and i want the output to be only =

" Birthday " ,

then how can i go forward to achieve such by removing all expressions containing numbers with it.

One approach:

s1="30th Birthday WORLDCUP34 WORLDCUP'34 '04";
str=strsplit(s1,' ');
result=str(cellfun(@isempty,(regexp(str,'\d+'))))

Thanks a lot. Also is there is a way if the expression was s1="30th Birthday WORLDCUP34 WORLDCUP'34 '04 Messi"; and i want the output in a single cell as "Birthday Messi" , both in a single cell .

[Birdman]

s1="30th Birthday WORLDCUP34 WORLDCUP'34 '04 Messi";
str=strsplit(s1,' ');
result=strjoin(str(cellfun(@isempty,(regexp(str,'\d+')))))

Use strjoin different than my first answer.

@Birdman: cellfun works faster with the builtin commands, which are specified as chars, here: cellfun('isempty', ...).

@HIRAKJYOTI BASUMATARY: Did you try Birdman's solution with your new string? It should run directly. What does this mean: "output in a single cell as "Birthday Messi" , both in a single cell"?

Ok Jan, thanks. It just takes time to get used to working with cellfun.

@Birdman Sir and @Jan Simon Sir , thanks a lot for the guidance. Yes @Jan simon sir, i meant in a single cell.
