The move may not be popular with the fans. McCarthy was given free rein in the buying of players, and I be- lieve we have a great team. Mc- Carthy has had five years-to prove this, so I don’t think fhere is any- thing unusual about not engaging him after a stretch such as that. “We planned,” he added, “to offer Hornsby a contract a few days after the season closes. We didn’t want, to embarrass McCarthy. - Now that patriot, Luis Angel Firpo, thus far|all sorts of rumors are flying around the matter probably will be taken up immediately.” Hornsby, regarded as one’ of the greatest infielders ever -developed, has been out of the game most of the year with injuries.
