Coumbe isn't spectacular sort of a

he's hired for.
Last season he hung up thirteen
victories and was charged with seven
defeats, $50 average. He tied with
Babe Ruth for the honor of ranking
sixth in the winning column. Fritz
is one of the few pitchers in the cir

the record of having hit only one bats.

would indicate that Coumbe has a
good righthanded control instead OF
the usual southpaw wildness.
He is one of the best fielding pitch
ers in the circuit. In thirty games
last season he made only one official
boot. He had nine putouts and sixty
six assists to his credit.
Coumbe was winner in 1917 and
in 1916, too, for Cleveland. He won
eight and lost seven two years ago

Richmond forced Bloomington to

Richmond husky back guard, won a
name for himself on the Purdue floor
when he held Rogers scoreless the en-

circles around the Bloomington five

What about Roger Hornsby in the
1919 campaign in the National league
National league fans are asking
each other whether Roger will step up
to his real gait this coming season or
whether he will continue in the slump
he suffered last season.
Hornsby joined the Cardinals in
1915, but did not receive very much OF
a chance to get going. But in 1916 he
stepped right out in front. He was
the very life Of the attack and defense
of the team. His general work at
shortstop and his batting made him
the most talked of player in the cir
cult, if not in the majors.
The next season he let out another
notch and again burned up the league.
He batted 1927 and finished second to
Eddie Rousch of the C1nci Reds, who
pulled down the batting title.
When the 1918 season started
scribes asked where will Hornsby
stop" Rog asked for a big increase
in salary and got it. Jack Henricks
took hold of the team that spring. 1t
never will be known exactly whether
it was the big pay and the publicity of
two seasons or his inability to get
along with Jack Hendricks that caus-
ed Roger to slump.
Now Hornsby will play under
Branch Hickey this coming season.
Hickey and Hornsby will get along.
Hickey is the kind of manager who
can talk to the youngster and get re-
suits.
II Hornsby hits his old stride again
next summer-if he takes the lead in
batting and infield work most fans
will blame his years lapse on Jack
Hendricks. Hendricks, being out of
the big leagues again, will not worry
over the verdict. Jack undoubtedly
has his own views, which are enough
for him.
It will be interesting to watch the
Cardinal star.
