TALES OF CARDINAL
STRIFE ARE FICTION
BY Fl. G. HAMILTON

NEW YORK, July 30.-The path CT
Jack Hendricks, manager of the St
Louis Cardinals, never rosy since he
assumed command Of that club is De
ing made harder than ever by flock
of stories purporting to originate in
the west" and declaring that his club
Is filled with strife.
One of these yarns Is to the effect
that Rogers Hornsby recently com
planned of an injury to his back when
he was out of condition and was
promptly suspended by Hendricks.
Thereupon this story has it, Hornsbv
packed his grip and went home, con.
fiding to just few intimates that he
was through with baseball for keeps.
The fact is that FTorn5by was sum-
moned by his local board in Texas,
with instructions to get into some
other kind of work or be classified ia
class IA. Then he went home to Sc.
tie matters with the draft board.
This compares well with the story
circulated last spring to the effect
that Hornsby and Hendricks were
about to break off relations. At that
time the shortstop star was under
care of physician who ordered him
to remain out of the game for some
time. When he recovered he was
back in the game with his full
strength.
Hendricks told the writer shortly
after the last baseball season that ne
was on excellent terms with every
man on his baseball club, including

N. P" is TRAFFIC
COP Of The ARMY
BY RANK J. TAYLOR

WITH THE AMERICAN ARMY AT
THE FRONT, July ,. (By Mail)--
They're the traffic cops of the army,
and darned good ones, too. There'll
be no scarcity of traffic cops back IN
America when the NJ. P. IS get back.
The officer was abiding to the mil.
itary police, the organization that
keeps order in the army, prevents con-
gestion on the roads, and does the
work that other departments of the
army do not do. The military police
have taken an important place behind
the lines
The military police is a distinct or
ganization, and is made up of picked
men from various military units. As
soon as a unit arrives i'll France. the
NJ. P.'s" are organized from it and

Until he gets up to the front and
sees things. the average man does not
realize that there is as much traffic
through some battered little town De
hind the lines as there is on Broad
way, New York, or Market street, San
Francisco, at least during certain
hours. SO the M, P" has a big job
on his hands as traffic cop. Often
there are two streams of traffic, and
he has a double job, to prevent con-
gestion
Usually there is an IN p" at every
cross road, to examine passes, and
see that people who do rot belong
near the front never get there When
you enter a divisions area you are
always met by an M P who looks
over your credentials, and give you in
formation about roads, dangers, and
see that you have your gas mask
ready before you go in the gas alerta

The IN P.'s" are made up of the
best men in the army, and they have
lot of authority. What is more,
they know (which makes them a
little disliked By The ordinary dough
