ROGERS HORNSBY, LEFT, BRANC
Chicago, Sept. 2S.-The latest SEN
sation in the National league concerns
right hook delivered by Rogers
Hornsby against the jaw OF Branch
Hickey, manager of the Cardinals.
or course, Hickey was not on the
re ceiving end throughout the fistic
battle, for reports have 1t that after
Hornsby challenged with the first
blow there was wild exchange of
hooks and uppercuts that only came
to finish when players in the club
house separated the two battlers.
And the final result may be that
Hornsby, admired for years by the
manager of the Cardinals, held up
by Hickey as one of the most ideal
players he has ever met IN his
career, may be put on the auction
block this winter
Imagine the scrambling to the pit
to bid for Rogers Hornsby!
What sweet words for John j.
McGraw and the Giants.
For whenever anything is offered
for sale, who in the league has q
chance in competitive bidding
against the Giants? No one.
