Never considered a ficlder, the Rajah, now 36, feels his batting power and is such that he can be of service in a playing capacity. He expects to play in about 100 games, approximately two-thirds of the scheduled list. The lack of Hornsby thinks, may be keenly fell next summer with Hack Wilson gone, Riggs Stephenson’s legs ail- ing, and Charles Grimm and Gabby Hazr beginning to slow up. Kiki Cuyler will be back in ihe outfield, and Woody English, sh stop, has made his mark as 11 and hitter. Bul the rest- of the line-up is in the experimental stage, and bat- ting power is more doubtful than fielding class. Stanley Hack and Billy Herman, rookies tentatively listed for third and second base, respectively, m: find their manager supplanti h quently in the coming games where a few bingles will make a big dif- ference. Bill Jurges is another third sack- er of unproved ability at the plate, while Vince Barton, Danny Taylcr, Johnny Moore and Mike Kreevich are outfielders who ms find it hard to duplicate the swatting ac- | complishments of Stephenson and | Wilson. Hornsby ran into physical hard- ships in 1930 when he had an op- eration to remove a bone growth on one heel, and shortly after re- covering, fractured his other ankle.
