William Wrigley, who owns the Cubs, was told by his subordinates that cash alone would not buy the transfer and that some players would have.to be thrown in to make the deal tasteful to the Boston cus- tomers. Wrigley, according to the story, instructed his agents to start the cash conversation at $200,000 and use their own judgment on the weight of human stock that had to go along to boot.

Bronko Nagurski, thundering full- back, and Duke Johnson, tackle, seem definitely out of the game be- cause of injuries. / Bismarck, Mandan bulk 000 worth of material if you figure that an untried rookie such as Roy Johnson is worth $75,000 of Detroit money. i It might be figured conservatively then that in the initial stage of the bidding Hornsby is at least a $300,- 000 ball player and ee will not halt on a higher price if Boston will listen. _ Baseball men _ are practically agreed that Hornsby would be too much of a bargain at $250,000 to get in a day when gifts are no part of the national pastime. Dissenting Voice Sounds _ There will be one dissenting, voice because at this time last year a cash appraisement of less than a dime was placed upon the great Rajah by Jack Hendricks, manager of the Cin- cinnati Reds. When the owners of the Giants de- cided that the club could prosper and be happy -without Hornsby, Hend- Ti was summoned from Cincin- nati and asked how much he would give for the man. f “Not a dime,” Hendricks said. “In fact, I wouldn’t have him on my ball club.” But Hendricks will admit in his frank way that he has a great personal distaste for the player and those personal prejudices have been known to operate at the cost of pennants. Several years ago the Brooklyn club threw the baseball world into a| great stomach laugh by offering St. Louis $250,000 for Hornsby. It was worth a laugh at that time but Wil- bert Robinson insists that the club WRIGLEY TALK BUSINESS) When going any place the shortest The two girls above, competitors in courts is to go over the net. the money to pay. The Brooklyn club is celebrated for its frugality, but it got dough by being that way and it went for about $100,000 in the Dave Bancroft experiment that didn’t work. Indians Like Hornsby Billy Evans says that his Cleve-' land club would lay $200,000 on the; line without a tremble for Hornsby, but he knows that they couldn't get him out of the National League. The magnates are very wary in these days. Several years ago the Yan- kees had a chance to sell Wally Pipp to the Cincinnati Reds for $20,000. They asked waivers and Philadelphia claimed him. Ed Barrow and Con- nie Mack went into a huddle and the circumstances were discussed. Mack said he guessed Pipp wasn’t worth more than $7,500 to him and with- drew the claim. Joe Hauser broke; his leg that season rg if Mack had: had Pipp to play first base he might have won the pennant. There isn’t a chance, of course, for Hornsby to get away from the Na- tional League. There are too many show horses in the American League) now. Cleveland offered Uhle; Sewell and $175,000 last winter to the Yan- kees for Lou Gehrig and got a laugh. Later the club offered $100,000 to Washington for Bucky Harris and was comforted with the admonition to be yourself. Would Mean Pennant Babe Ruth cost the Yankees what at the time was the staggering price of $125,000 and he has returned a dividend of perhaps 200 per cent on the investment.
