HORNSBY ROW
PUZZLESFANS
Explanation Of Trade
Fails to Explain,
Writers Say

NEW YORK, Jan. l2.-CP-Unsat-
isfied with the official statements
promulgated by New York Giants
headquarters, baseball experts con-
tinued guessing today as to why
Rogers Hornsby was sent to Boston
for two comparatively unknown
youngsters.
Officially, the trade which brings
Frank Hogan, promising catcher, and
Jimmy Welsh, outfielder to the
Giants in exchange for a fine second
baseman and one OF the greatest nit
tiers the game has ever known, was
made for the best interests" of the
club.
That was the substance of two
statements issued BY the Giants
powers that be. The first was ever
the signatures Of both President
Charlie a. Stoneham and Manager
John McGraw. The second, by
Stoneham alone, was intended as a
further explanation" Of the deal
which stood the baseball world on its
head on Tuesday night and so far, has
left it there.
In his second communique. Mr..
Stoneham recalled that statements
had been made that Hornsby would
be the next manager of the club, and
then added:
II have never been consulted re-
garding this and have had no confer
ence about the selection of a man
ager as Mr.. McGraw retains the man
agement Of the New York club"
The sports writers contended that
the only fault with Mr.. Stoneham's
explanation" was that il didn't Eek
plain III some managerial conflict
was 10 be feared. they asked, why did
McGraw, when he was ill, appoint
Hornsby as acting manager during
the hottest part Of the National
League pcnnant chase last summer?
Few if any Of the experts accepted
the official" explanation at its face
value. Hornsby. himself, in st. Louis,
denied he had had any trouble with
McGrav or had attempted TO under
mine" the little Napoleon"
Suggestions that the Giants had an
interest in strengthening the Boston
secuted by most observers. The idea.
duNdHCtu III seNeIdl QudEleIs, luGt inc
suit for gambling debts against
Hornsby had played a part in the
trade. met with a similar reception.
Hornsby won this suit in court.
BOSTON. Jan. 12.-(P)-If there
is anything TO the story that "Syn-
dictate baseball brought Rogers
Hornsby to Boston from the New
York Giants. President Emil f..
Fucks, Of the Braves doesn't know
il.
No man who is interested in any
way with the Giants owns a nickel's
worth Of stock in the Braves" he
said in regard to suggestions that
the Giant star had been traded here
to help bolster up a club which was
falling down financially.
He took occasion at the same time
to assert that when the New York
club got Francis Hogan, Boston's
star catcher and outfielder Jimmy
Welsh, it was taking no losers end.
Fuchs said he valued the pair at
Sl50,000 and considered them worth
fully that much to the Giants.

Browns also will 70 along.
All but Payne and Bolton. how
ever, probably will be farmed out.
Bayne is expected OF stay with the
team because Of his previous big
league experience and Bolton be-
cause Of his hitting prowess.
George Burns, the American
Leagues most valuable player in
1926. will continue to hold down
first sack with Joe Sewell at short.
Johnny Hodapp will replace Lutzke
at thir base, while the club owner
have tossed their lines toward the
minor league ranks for a ss>>ed
baseman, since Sturgeon, a sensa-
tion in 1925. still suffers from in
juries sustained in an auto acct
dent. Fonseca. with a record OF 96
games at second last season, is
figured more as a utility infielder.
Extra infielders are Dan Jesse,
shortstop from Salt Lake City, and
Carl Lind, farmed out to Denver
last year.
Jameson Is counted on for left
field, with a battle for other field
positions to be waged between Eddie
Morgan Of New Orleans. Frank Will
son Of Milwaukee, Elton Langford
Of Omaha, and Homer Summa, who
has been with the Indians for sew
eral years. George Gerkin, drafted
from Milwaukee also will be on

Efforts of Evans, New

CLEVELAND, o.. Jan. 12.-Pl-
Backed by q group Of new owners
committed to "a winning team for
Cleveland" but with virtually the
same old group Of players that fin
iShed sixth last year. the Cleveland
Indians will enter the 1928 season
with their hopes pinned principally
on n better showing of the last
years veterans and the coming Of
several promising recruits.
Failure marked all efforts during
the winter to add any major league
stars 10 the Cleveland camp and
Billy Evans. the tribes new general
manager. faces the April start with
almost the same proven material
that Jack McAlister finished with
last October. Evans took charge of
the team in December after it had
been prsShased from Mrs. James c.
Dunn by a group 70 Cleveland bust
ness men headed by Alva Bradley,
banker. The new owners said their
chief concern was a winning team
and told Evans to 90 out and round
up the players he needed They
promised what money he needed.
Found Hard Going
But Evans found the going hard,
He had no good men TO trade with
out wrecking his team and no other
major league manager would sell
any good men outright for the same
reason. So when the stove league
season ended Evans had mostly some
recruits and part Of last year:
team to build on. He did. however
add Roger Peckinpaugh, as field
manager.
Knowing that il takes pitching e

Brown Today

The weeks delay had no visible eff
feet on the quality of polo offered
ny the participants in the opening
game OF the annual Valley Mid-Win-
ter Polo tournament here Wednesday
afternoon. which was won by the
Fort Clark team by an s to 5 score
over the Huisaches. Of the Houston
Polo and Riding club,
The game IA a thriller almost
from the start, daring horsemanship
and long shots from past midfield
going to make up what fans declared
was the best polo game ever played
here.
Both teams scored in the first per-
iod. Fort Clark jumping into a lead
from which they we're never headed.
Lieut.. Stadler, forward on the army
team piled up as many points dur
ing the contest as the total of the
opposing team.
Every man on the Fort Clark team
scored at least one point, with the
exception Of Capt. Greed, playing the
No. ? position. and they scored in
every period except three.
Hard luck was riding with the
Huisache team throughout the game,
their attempts at goal being outside
by inches on many occasions. The
back hand stick work of virtually ev-
cry man on the team was remark
ably good.
A fair sized crowd turned out for
the event. many of the visitors be-
ing persons who did not hold a ga
son reserved parking space at the
post.
Field Marked Off
The corner of the field IN which
a water main was broken on the
day previous was still unfit Tor play.
and was marked off. This handicap
ped the playing of both teams to a
certain extent, il was said.
The break had already been re-
paired. and the dampness of the
ground was the only thing preventing
that section being used Tor play.
The beaming sun of Thursday was
expected to dry the space sufficient
ly for the entire field ~ re at the
disposal Of the local team and the
Houston Yellow Jackets when they
clash Thursday afternoon.
The cups, going as trophies TO the
winners of the two tournaments,
were on display at the game. There
arc five Of them, four small individ-
ual cups, and a large team trophy.
Another good game is in prospect
for Thursday afternoon when the
Fort Brown team clashes with the
Yellow Jackets, a second team of
the Houston Polo and hiding club,
in the second game of the series.
Finals Sunday
Tie winners of these Two games
will play finals of the open tourna-
ment Sunday afternoon, while it is
hoped to play the opening game Of
the handicap event Friday. Capt.
Vernon Shell. polo representative at
the post said Thursday morning.
In the event this arrangement is
followed. the second contest Of the

BINGHAM TO VISIT
 STRICKEN PORTO RICO
After Election He Will Make Study of Hurri-
 cane Conditions There

New Haven. Oct. 30 Rp-In re- sponse to an appeal by cable from the governor of Porto Rico, United States Senator Hiram Bingham. chairman of the senate committee on territories and insular posses- sions. will go to the island immedi- ately after election to make . study of conditions there resulting from the recent hurricane.
 The cable message, and . letter which followed. asked the senator to make study of conditions and work out plans for rehabilitation. and Sen- ator Bingham will spend two weeks there in . first-hand survey of the devastation on the island. He will also prepare remedial legislation to be offered as soon as congress meets in December.
 Senator Bingham today said that the hurricane was the worst catas- .rophe which has ever visited the island 70 far as records show. and as committee chairman he felt 1t his duty to respond to the appeal. The island having . population greater than Connecticut has no senator and only . delegate to the house who has no vote. The senator on offering legislation will ask for immediate action to sive aid to the fullest ex- tent congress properly can do.
 Winter is coming on and the farmers and many others are in ex- treme destitution and should have early relief. A hrst-hand study of conditions. the senator said. will en- able his committee to be in posses- sion of the facts. The Red Gross has been giving aid but this will cease about December 1. ,.
