GLENNA C0LLETT
 TALKS ON STYLE
Advises Women to Dress to Forget Clothes on the Course

Haverford, Pa, Oct. . tPy-Finc feathers do not necessarily make fine birdies on the golf links.
 Comfortable and correct clothes help the woman golfer put the ball down in under pars in the opinion of some of the ranking feminine ex- pOnents of the game.
 Dress so that you will forget your clothes when you get on the first tee" said Glenna Collett, the dethroned champion whose style in costume remains almost as classic as her style ill stance. A simply cut wool skirt and knitted slip-on sweater of lighter rosewood tone, with beige wool stockings, was the costume she chose for one of her matches in the national tournament here this week.
 Proving that there is more In style on the tee than meets the ball, the contendcgs on the Merton links have been setting fashions that the world Of golfing women may be pleased to copy.
 "A swing is graceful at best, and the woman who is swinging ought to Dc as well dressed as possible to car ry 1t off. said Helen Payson, pretty blonde champion from Maine. A tan wool skirt and a Jersey blouse striped in contrasting blue dressed her swing 10 advantage during one Of her matches.
 kniciers? Never, say the fair golfers. No woman could look well in knickcrs on the links" said Miss Collett. Personally I've only seen one wearing them. And she couldn't play"

TEAM INSPIRED BY
 HORNSBY'S SPIRIT
Cardinals Leader First Playing Manager to Win Since Chance

St. Louis, Oct. 2 lTp -- Rogers Hornsby is the first playing mana ger to pilot q team to a National league pcnnant since the day of Frank Chance, the old Peerless Leader of the Chicago Cubs. back in the day when the famous trium- virate of Tinker to Evers to Chance made baseball history.
 The fighting manager of the Cardinals led his team in the hot test finish seen in the National league since 1908, when Chicago and New York finished in a tie
 Started Drive Late
 Hornsby's leadership and ability to maintain a fighting spirit among his players share the tribute of Cardinal fans for this seasons per formance.
 St Louis started its drive for the flag during their last stay at home, and rode close to the top by defeat ing the Pirates in a series that was vital to both clubs. Shortly after the Cardinals went into the lead by slender margin, and then met with hear breaking reverse at Boston, which gave Cincinnati the top rung.
 Perhaps another team and anoth- CT manager might have collapsed under this setback, but Hornsby ral- lied his men and began the fight anew. Within week St, Lonis had regained the top which it struggled 10 hold until the finish
 All Good Hittcrs
 Hornsby took charge of the Cardinals in the early Spring of 1925. He knew his men and set about immediately to put St. Louis on the world series circuit. The club at that time was rated as q danger ous outfit, but it lacked the balance and polish to make it a real factor in the National league fight. The Cardinals packed terrific wallop at the plate, and their offensive strength was formidable, but pitch ing and an cratic defense kept the team down in the percentage col umn. Hornsby finished the season with his machine in good shape, and passed a busy winter gathering wool for the pcnnant from the ranks of his rivals.
 He began the 1926 season with a stronger aggregation and further balanced the team by signing Bill Killfcr, former manager of the Chi caEo Cubs. as his assistant. They have worked together harmonious ly.
 When Hornsby was appointed manager there was much discussion

H0WARTH WINS AGAIN
Veteran Bowler Beats Joe Jronosky, Substitute For Gaines, In Special Match.

Ray Gaines, the Hartford bowler was unable to appear for his sched- uled match with Bill Howarth, man. ager of the Commercial alleys, and ! Joe Tronosky substituted in his place and met defeat in the 10 games rolled. Tronosky represent ed the Central alleys of Bristol in the state league last year and all though he entered the play at a late date, he did good work.
 Howarth showed that 1t meant nothing 10 him who he was rolling and he went out and beat the sub stituto by 95 points. Tronosky started off with a bang, hitting 139 in the first game, but after that he subsided and his form got worse as he went along until the finally end- ed up with an S3. He had four other games in under 100. His 139 was high single for the night, how ever, and had he kept up the good work he would have easily taken tho measure of tho veteran.
 The scores of the match were as follows
 Bill Howart'' 126. 1O7. 126. 1o4 94, 104. 106. 102, 116. 105-1090.
 Joe Tronosky-139, 105, 103, 109, o6, 105, oS, S1, a6, S3-995.

as to whether his new duties would hinder his wonderful work as a player. He continued his stellar performance at second base and at bat, however, and last year earned the trophy awarded the most valu- able player in the league.
 Holds Series of Records
 Hornsby came to the Cardinals as q shortstop a decade ago, and inn mediately made good. It was not until he switched 10 second base, however. that he became a great star. He led the league in batting for six successive years, finishing 1924 with a new National league record of .424. In 1925 he fell to .4O3 but batted in 143 runs for the league leadership and drove out 39 round- trip blows during the season. In 1922 he established the National league home run record with 42.
 His six years leadership in batting broke the record of Hans Wagner of Pittsburgh, who led for four con- secutive years from 1906 to 1909. By finished with a batting average over 400 in 1922. 1924 and 1925, he matched the record of Jesse Burkett, who accomplished the three time feat for the old Cleveland Nationals.
 Hornsby began to play ball with Dallas in the Texas league in 1914. He went to Dennison before the season was over and the next year found him with the Cardinals.
 Several years ago John McGraw of the New York Giants made the alluring offer of $125.000 for the Hornsby contract, but his bid was p 'omptly declined by St. Louis.
