Speaking of Sports The Hartford-New Britain pro football series has created such in- terest in Connecticut and Western Massachusetts that the strong. Sil- vertown eleven, representing Spring- field, still boasting an uncrossed goal line, is anxious to show its wares in the Nutmeg State. Through these columns, the man- agement takes the opportunity of challenging the winner of the Hart- ford-New Britain series for a series of games with the Silvertowns. Only recently the undecfeated Kingston Yellow Jackets met defeat at the hands of the Springficld tcam by & 26 to 0 acore, The Silvertowns have a great array of college players in their lineup with & stone wall front line averaging 190 pounds. They have two sets of hard hitting backs which will give any team plenty of trouble. They are at present the leading football team in Western Mamsachusetts and a game with the winner of the Hartford- New Britain series would be a real attraction for the fans in both scc- tions, Manager Cassidy would like to hear from the managements of both teams concerning this matter., Queries atill contine to come in to this office asking about the cxcur- sion train to New York next Sunday and there isn't any doubt whatever in our minds but that fully 100 or more fans would make the trip to see the football game if arrange- ments can be made to stop the train at Berlin. . In his negotiations with the rail. road officjals, Manager Henry Zehr- er was told that the railroad com. pany would have to be guaranteed at least 100 ticket sales from this city. Although the local man has no way of telling whether this many would be on the trip or not, he can vest assured that there will be. It might be a good idea for those who plan to make the trip to get in touch with Manager Zehrer and no- tity him that they would make the trip. This must be done right away the time is fast growing short. ‘The Greenwichers Basketball team of Greenwich, Conn, a good draw- ing card, would like to meet any team in this vicinity averaging 155 pounds. The quintet is uniformed and is composed cntirely of former high school and Y. M, C. A. stars, Yor further information write to Ru- dolph C. Pultz at the Greenwich Dress, Greenwich, Conn. POLISH . 0.

Owoers of Ciubs Trying to Fix = Fair Price for Star The gentlemen who own the Chi- cago and Boston National League clubs are trying as good busincss men to agree on what is a fair price for Rogers Hornsby, For the purpose of getting some | definite starting point for the nego- tiations it secms that the Chicago club placed a minimum value of $200,000 on the National League's greatest batter, William Wrigley, who owns the Cubs, was told by his subordinates that cash alonz would not buy the transfer and that some players would have to be thrown in to make the deal tasteful to the Boston cus- the cash conversation at $200,000 and use iheir own judgment on the weight of human stock that had to §0 along to boot. Trio in Trade Worth 1150,000 The Braves are supposed to have mentioned casually that Maguire, Root and Webb would be treated kindly in Boston and there is §150,- 000 worth of material if you figure that an untried rookie such as Roy Johnson is worth $75,000 of Detroit money It might be figured conservatively then that in the initial stage of the bidding Hornsby is at least a $300,- €00 ball player and Chicago will not halt on a higher price if Goston will listen, Baseball men are practically agreed that Hornshy 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 From Hendricks There will be one dissenting voice becguse 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 Cincinnati Reds. When the owners of the Giants decided that the club could prosper and be happy without Hornsby, Hendricks was summoned from Cin- cinnati and asked how much he would give for the man. “Not a dime,” Hendricks said. “In fact, T wouldn't hayve him on my ball club. But Hendricks will ad- mit in his frank way that he has a great personai distaste for the play- er and those personai 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 £t. Louis $250,000 for Hornsby, It was worth a laugh at that time but Wilbert Robinson insists that the club made the offer in good faith and had 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 ex- periment that didn’t work, Indians Would Like Horusby Billy Evans says that his Cleve- land club would lay $200,000 on the line without a tremble for Hornsby, but e knows that they couldn't get him out of the National l.eague. The magnates are very wary in these days. Several years ago the Yankees had a chance to sell Wally Pipp to the Cincinnati Reds for $20,000. They asked waivers and Philadel- phia claimed him. 13d Barrow and Connie 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 withdrew the claim. Joe Hauser broke his leg that scason and if Mack had had Pipp to play first base h: might have won the pen- nant. There isn’t a chance, of course, for Hornshy to get away from the National League. There are too many show horses in the American League now. Cleveland offered Uhle, Sewell and $175.000 last winter to the Yankees for Tou Gehrig and got a laugh. Later the club offered $100,000 to Washington for Buck Harris and was coinforted with the admonition to be yourself. Would Mcans Pennant for Cubs 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. Hornsby wouldn't be any such In- vestment for the Cubs, but it scems to bhe agreed among bascball men that Hornsby ought to make a pen- nant winner out of the Cubs and that is what the Wrigley millions want. 1t would mean something to the Wrigley firm to get a champion team because at some time during the period leading up to the world series some unethical reporter would violate a confidence and mention something about chewing gum. .And if you think this is a sap na- tion, ask Sir Tommic Lipton if he didn’'t get all his dough back out of all those losing yacht races, STRESS DEFENSE PLAYS New York, Oct. 31 (UFP)-—Al- though Coach Meehan is stressing the defensive more than usual in practice this week, the New York University team will not abandon its offensive tactics this week when it meets the high scoring Georgetown cleven at Yankee Stadium. M Washington. Oct. 31 (UP)— Georgetown University had lidtle trouble heating a team of reserves using New York University plays in practice vesterday.

Pyle’s Classic of Last March Hits New York New York, Oct. 31 (UP)—A stooped and bent oid man, hatless and barefooted, wearing long robes and flowing white beard, plodded into New York yesterday. He was the last of the C. C. Pyle “bunion derbyists” who started from Los Angeles March 4 on a transcon- tinental footrace. Leaning heavily on a rough-hewn staff, he looked more like a prophet | who had stepped from the pages of Biblical history than a marathon runner. Indeed, although christened John B. Nash, he went by the name of “Prophet Jonah B. Isalah” of Emoryville, W. Va. Jonah wore few clothes, but was 20 | realizing his 3 | clally covered with many placards, most of them proclaiming he was for Gov. Alfred E. Smith. He had started from Los Angeles with 97 cents and had stopped frequently along the route, it developed, to campaign for Smith. When he finally arrived here he had $17. ‘The prophet's first move was to break up a Hoover rally in Union Square, and he was arrested for dis- orderly conduct. Haled before a judge, he proudly exhibited papers which proved he had been pro- nounced insane in seven states. As he left the courthouse a crowd ibegan to gather. He thereupon gave the audience his recipe for long life and good health, which consisted of staying away from butchers, barbers and bootleggers. As the crowd grew and began to obstruct traffic, police ordered it to disperse and harshly commanded Prophet Jonah to move on. . PRESIDENT'S J0B 15 DEFINED HERE Pully: Described the president's job? Dr. Charles Riborg Mann, direc- tor of the American Council of Ed- ing chief exccutive of the United States along the lines evolved by business, industry and the profes- stons for picking men for expert Jobs. At the outset he shows that 40,- 000 appointments are made by the president, subject to senate ap- proval. These include heads of ex- ecutive departments, supreme court and federal judges, members of six federal commissions and five federal boards, postmasters and marshals. According to Dr. Mann's defini- tion the president must: “Analyze social and economic conditions in the light of his ion |and report to congress such facts and tendencies as seen to him sig- nificant both of the present state of the union and of its future devel- 6 lopment in accordance with his pol- icies. “Formulate, for consideration of congrees, measures that seem to him necessary and expedient for vision of national achievement in ways that are so- cially, economically and constitu- | tionally sound; present them so that he secures support for his policies and gets things done. “Appraise the work of the execu- tive departments as to business ef- ticiency and national service and fecure from congress approval of an annual budget that distributes cstimated income so as to secure team-vlay and constructive econo- my in performance of all legitimate und essential federal functions. “gign bills that arc passed by congress and that seem fo him to promote public welfare, sound re- lationships with the states and his policies of national achievement. “Veto bills that are passed by congress, but that seem to him so- economically or constitu- tionally unsound; submit his sons therefor in writing to gress, “Confer with members of con- gress, ropresentatives of organiza- tions, public officlals and private | citizens, weigh the evidence and act always in the interest of national achievement as he secs it. “Formulate an international poli- cy consistent with national devel- opment and stimvlating to interna- tional good-will; make treaties that are mutually beneficial to all con- gerned and are also acceptable to at least two-thirde of the senate. “Select and appoint, by and with the consent of the senate, ambas- sadors, ministers &nd consuis who will creditably represent the United States abroad and sympathetically Interpret his international policy. “Welcome officially all ambassa- dors and other public ministers from foreign nations. “Take care that the laws are faithfully and intelligently execut- con- “Command the military forces, coramission all officers thereof and direct military operations, as au- thorized by law, in a manner con- sistent with his international policy. “Grant reprieves and pardons for oftenses against the United States when such action seems justificd. “Modify administrative routine or organization in the executive de- partmeuts by ¢ .~utii: order, as authorized by law, 80 as to increase cfficiency and harmonize federal activities and his policies. “Guide the cabinet in perfecting policies and in devising ways and means of rcalizing them in prac- tice. “Hold official and public tions, “Deliver public addresses that in- terpret his vision and his policles to the people.’ recep- HIGH PRESSURE PETE YeAH, PETE.~ HOoW New Nere. vor " THE Cfl!t@(fi 2-67 Yflzo STICKS (% NoT I.MD Trand 0¥ Uwe ™' MY STORE. — Just What His Duties Are Is!
