President Stoneham Asserts Rogers Will Lose
$4,000 Job Unless He Gives Up His Interest
in the World Champions

BY the Associated Press.
n YEW YORK. February 2.--If
N Rogers Hornsby remains a
director of the ST. Louis
4 cardinals and draws divi-
dends from 1867 shares OF
stock he owns in the club. he will lose
a job as captain and second baseman
Of the New York Giants at $40 900 a
year.
This was the dictum of President
Charles A. Stoneham of the Giants
when informed that the former Car
dinal manager, traded to New York
for frankie Frisch and Jimmy Ring,
had been reelected a director of the
St Louis club.
IF Hornsby stays as a club official
in St Louis. he won't be allowed to
play in New York uniform" Stone
ham said. THAT has been so ruled
by President Heydler of the National
League, and of course the New York
club will observe the ruling,
Must Sell His Stock.
II think that a way will be found
to straighten out the matter before
the season opens. Hornsby will sell
his stock. But he has an idea. ap-
parently that II is worth more than
the persons in st. Louis think II Is.
He may be able to sell II at his figure.
Stock in a concern like the Cardinals
is worth about what some one Is will
ing to pay for it. We are not alarmed
at the situation"
While reiterating that there WASH I
a chance of calling the deal off, !" Stone
ham said that Hornsby would be in
New York late this week to attend
the annual base ball writer's dinner
here. I'VE will have talk with him
then" he concluded.

infield next season lacking the pres
ence of the former St. Louis "Rajah,

Howley, manager of the st. Louis

come the boss of the man he used to
work for.
Howley formerly was aide to Cobb
when the Georgia Jewel managed
the Detroit Tigers. When Howley left
Detroit to assume the management of
the Toronto Internationals. he con-
tinued his interest in the Tigers. and
several stars developed by him at
Toronto later were passed on to Cobb.
During the last few seasons How

Howley and Cobb kept up the close
relationship that was born in the

some persons think 1t is not a good
thing for managers to be stockholders
The first base bali manager to whom
stock was issued almost surely was

given few shares in his cluh many
years ago as base ball has flown. the
shares were placed In his way because

When Arson left the Chicago club
he sold his stock He went to New

any kind of challenge that rang with

Anti.G Gun TOtin'
Bill Goes OUer Veto


For the first time this session a
house of the legislature has voted to
pass bill over the governors veto.
The house took that action Tuesday
morning, when by d vote of AZ to 10
it passed Hannons bill restricting the
use of pistols and revolyers, known
popularity as the anti-gun totin' act.
Those voting no were Gibbs, Hamb-
lin, Ivy, Kennedy, Kent, Ludden, Nc
Brayer, Old, Walker and Williams.
Jones Of Cochise explained his af-
firmative vote by stating that it was
not in disrespect to the governor, but
because the peace officers associa-
tion had asked for it's passage.
Lynch Of Greenlee said that, while he
believed the governor was sincere in
holding the bill unconstitutional, still
there was wide conflict of opinion
in the courts on the point of indivi-
dual rights, and that he, himself, con-
sidered the measure legal in every
respect.
Speculation was rife as to what
the senate would do with the meas
ure. It was generally conceded that
the governor would have the sup
port of members who have upheld
his previous vetoes, in which case the
bill would be doomed to the discard.

in which they were being brought to
town overturned.
