HORNSBY SEEKS
CONTRACT GOOD
8 MORE Y E AR S

ST. LOUIS, Dec. 6 R-President
Sam Breadon of the St. Louis, Card
inals today. took under advisement
request of Rogers Hornsby for his
retention for three years as a player
and manager.
Hernsby made the request at a
conference in which Breadon pro-
posed that Hornsby retain his play
er's contract which still has a year
to run, or to combine the old con-
tract with a one-year contract as
player manager with an increased
salary.
Il told Hornsby," Breadon sad
that the three year contract hi
proposed ran into bigger money than
the clubs earning power for the
past eight years justified and that
one year was as far as could rea-
sonably see my way to sign.''
Breadon said that the fact that he
and Hornsby did not reach an agree
ment today did not mean that they
would not "get together" but thai
he did not know when he would
give the Cardinal manager an an

GRAIN MARKET.

CHICAGO, Dec. 6.-(P-Wheat values
took a zigzag course today, December
delivery advancing in price, whereas
later months declined Unsettlement
was ascribed largely to trade compli-
cations which are resulting from much
wheat both afloat and ashore being
tied up by lake barriers Of ice. Clos
ing quotations on wheat were irregu-
lar, u cent net lower to one cent ad-
vance, with corn unchanged to "A cent
gain, oats 2s cent off to Is cent to u
cent up and provisions unchanged to
80 cents down.
Upturns in the price Of wheat avail
able for delivery this month were as
sociated more or less with reports OF
strenuous efforts being made in some
quarters to replace wheat that at pres
ent is blockaded owing to stoppage of
lake navigation. On the other hand, 1T
was apparent that this stoppage would
pile up wheat in Canada which later
will be likely to meet with more COM
petition than at present. Fine harvest
weather prevailing in Argentina count
ed also as a bearish influence on the
price Of deferred contracts.
According to one authority here, the
amount Of wheat aboard vessels al
ready tied up on account of lake ice
conditions and the further amount OF
wheat held back at the head of the
lakes is of sufficient volume to disor-
ganize badly the whole immediate mar
ket supply and demand situation. 1t
is also stated that even if the present
tieup is broken there will be virtually
no additional vessel trips such as had
been planned in expectation that lake
navigation would continue until at
least December IL.
Unfavorable weather for field work
tended to give firmness to the corn
market. Oats were governed chiefly
by the action of corn.
Provisions sympathized with weak
ness of hog values.

GY M PUPILS TO
GIVE PROGRAM
DECEMBER y

Miss Lucille Darner, head of ply
sical instruction at the Douglas high
school, announced Monday that the
gym classics would give program,
Wednesday, December %, in the
auditorium.
The program to be given will con
sist of two parts. The first will be
s'The Dolls Ballet" The cast will
be announced at an early date. Those
taking part in the play are limited
to members of the freshman and
sophomore classes. The scene of the
ballet is laid in a doll shop. When
the curtain rises the shop girls are
discussed a rumor that they have
heard to the effect that at midnight
on Christmas eve the dolls come to
life for one hour and act as humans
do. The shop girls resolve to stay
awake and see if this is true. AT
this time in the play the sandman
enters and sprinkles sand into the
eyes OF the girls.
Sleep oyercomes them and the scenes
darkens while the handman and his
sprites spirit the girls away. Then
flood of light reveals group of
tiny moonbeams dancing about the
dimly lighted doll shop. When the
dolls see moonbeams in the shop
and hear the clock strike IL they
descend from their places for the
frolie. The moonbeams will be sixth
grade pupils and the dolls and shop
girls, freshman and sophomore mem
bers of Miss Darner's gym classes.
After the ballet is concluded there
will be a series of tumbling acts
which will be participated in by
members of all the classes. In this
act there. will also be pyramid build
! ing, and apparatus work. No ad-
mission will be charged to the en-
tertainnlent which is to be an eX-
hibition of work taken up in the
classes at the Ahigh school.

I6-YEAR-OLD YOUTH
is STATE GOLF CHAMP

PHOENIX, Dec 6.-Bobbie Cold
water, 16 year old high school ath
lete, proved again that golf is not
only an old mans game when he
won the Arizona state golf cham
pionship. defeating Fred Barrows by
score of three and two, at the
Phoenix Country club Sunday.
The young high school athlete,
who is also proficient at football,
basket ball and track, shot a game
match 10 win the state amateur golf
title. At the enc of the morning
match he was trailing Barrows, two
down. 1t would have discouraged
many veterans but it seemed to only
make Bobbie realize that he would
have to extend himself to win.
His first nine holes of the after
noon play were remarkable golf. He
finished the nine with 81 which
was fins score on a sodden water
soaked course. He was one up at the
turn and the morning handicap had
been erased. He held his own until
the fourteenth, and then took the
fourteenth, fifteenth and halved the
sixteenth to win the match

Wise Suggestions

Here is the rather interesting sug-
gestion made by one of the former
stars who thinks the pass is being
overplayed:
"Limit the passing game to only one
pass in any sequence of downs The
five-yard penalty means nothing. One
pass in every sequence would restrict
the indiscriminate use of the play.
Limit the distance of the pass to
20 yards in the opposition's territory
Since, after one pass had been made
in sequence, the secondary defense
might move in too close and bring
back the Objectionable mass play, it
would be- wise to insist that three
secondary defense men be at least 1O
yards behind the line of scrimmage.'
Rather interesting suggestions
would say.

Expert Opinion

American star.

downs and then see such a real display
of football go to waste by the mere
Tipping of the ball through the air

michigan did it twice through the
uncanny passing of Friedman. Only
one who has played football can ap-
preciate how such a play tends to
demoralize a team.

vince me that it is real test of actua
football ability. 1t is simply the work

Elenent Of Luck

The consensus of the three former
big shots in football was that the
element of luck was just as big. a
factor in executing forward pass as
perfect timing.
They were of the opinion that the
true test of offense was a running
attack featuring dashes around the
end, or through the line, and trick
plays.
Many coaches argue there is no
definite defense that can be framed
to meet a forward pass offensive. Per
haps the best is the man. man de-
fense However, there is always the
fear that the defensive player may
interfere, which reacts to the great
advantage of the receiver.
In the Ohio Michigan game,
Marty KaroW in spelling Michigan's
first long pass, was adjudged to have
interfered with the eceiver and
Michigan got the distance just as if
the. play had been successfully COM
pleted.
After that, State seemed to fear
repetition of the initial play, which
of course made Michigan's game more
effective.

MARKET SHOWS
IRREGULARITY
DURING MONDAY

otal stock sales, 200 shares.

NEW YORK, Dec. 6.--tP--Irregular
ity developed in today's stock market
as opposing speculative forces strug-
gled for control, but major activity
appeared to be on the upside. Higher
call money rates and the uncertainty
regarding the action to be taken by
congress on the mass of new bills had
a tendency to restrict trading. How
ever, the higher money rates are re-
garded as only temporary and in bank
ing and brokerage circles no legisla-
tion likely to be adverse to general
business Is expected.
Call money renewed at Az per cent,
which was somewhat of a surprise in
view OF the large deficit in reserve
shown in last Saturdays clearing house
statement, but advanced to 5 and
thence to 5A as banks called about
$50, 000, 900 in loans. The New York
federal reserve bank reported an in
crease of $38,37O0OO in loans for the
week ended last Wednesday. The New
York stock exchange figures for the
month Of November which also come
out today showed total loans of 49,
129,161,675, an increase of $17,984,7 75C
over the total at the end of October.
These figures, coupled with federal
reserve bank statements, tend to con-
firm the belief that no serious credit
stringency is in sight.
Speculation continued to center in g
