New York, Jan. 11 (P—Rogers Hornaby, captain of the New York Liggest star in the Natlonal Leazue, has been shipped | “down east” in 1 lightning trade to the Boston Biaves. The deal came as a stunning sur- | prise to baseball circles and was | equally unexpected to Hornsby who upon learning from newspapermen of the transaction at his hotel in M. | Louls, declared: “J cannot belicve it In return for Hornsby, who is the National Lcague's highest salaried player at & reported sum of $40,000 the Giants receive Catcher tred around the cellar of the cireuit fr the past few years and the pa- tonage dropped at un alarming rate, iz Boston. After receiving a telegram from Julige Emil E.
