HORNSBY TO
BE TRADED?

st. Louis, Sept. 28.-Belief that
his $500 fine and indefinite suspen-
sion, imposed for refusing to play
in yesterdays game with Brooklyn,
is ''merely a fine excuse to place me
in trading block this winter" was
expressed by Rogers Hornsby, star
second baseman for the st. Louis
Nationals.
Hornsby, who, claimed he was dealt
with unjustly, made the statement
despite repeated official announce
ments by Sam Breadon, president of
the club, that Hornsby neither would
be sold nor traded.

CUE MARVEL
is IN CITY

Frank Burns, known as the cham
pion one-armed pocket billiard play
CT of the world, will give an exhibit
tion at the Blackstone Billiard par
Tor on Fifth street today at p. m.
and again at p. m. Burns is de-
clared to be the master of so Won
derful and fancy trick shots.
Picking up nine billiard balls
with one hand, connecting the cue
ball for a billiard with one of the
object balls away from the table
and shooting with spear-like stroke
because one arm is off above the
elbow, are among the tricks of
Burns. Burns has been on the road
for rs years and has high run of

1924. 'Killefer already has been given
credit for rebuilding snappy young
ball club.
Following the rumpus with Horns
by, Hickey has beeen silent. He has
refused to say whether peace will be
declared or whether Hornsby will be
offered for trade. 81.
Reliable information says that
Rickey's pride has been hurt and
that he will accept fair bargain
offered for one of the greatest hit
ters the game has ever developed.
Hickey is planning big shake-up
in his St. Louis organization. He in
tends to knock off the dead timber
and develop youngsters. He recently
handed Catcher Eddie Ainsmith his
unconditional release.
Pitcher Ed Pfeffer, a belligerent,
will be traded during the winter, not
because he, is slipping but because
he objected to obeying rules put
down by the Cardinals manager. Mil
ton Stock also is booked for trade,
Johnny Lavan will not return to the
knoth olders rand other veterans are
due to pass out.

Of course Hickey was not on the
