PRESENCE OF
H0RNSBY MAKES
CUBS FORMIDABLE
By GEORGE KIRKSEY
Omitted Press Staff Ccrrespondent)


NEW YORK, Nov, 9.-Thc after
math of the Rogers Hornsby deal
leaves the Chicago Cubs favoritcs to
win the National League pcnnant
and the Boston Braves with a man
ager who has never played profes-
sional baseball
The task of stopping the Cubs
with Ilornsby, Wilson, Cuyler,
Stephenson and Ilartnctt may prove
more than the ST. Louis Cardinals,
New York Giants; Cincinnati Reds
and Pittsburgh Pirates are equal to
next season.
Hornsby's punch added to the al.
ready strong Chicago club may
mean the first pennant for the Cubs
since 1918. Freddy Mcguire, who
batted PA last season, and Percy
jones, an erratie southpaw with Il
sore soupbonc, were the only two
regulars who departed Leggett,
Cunningham and Seibold, the other
three players, were only promising
minor lcaguers.

who have had trouble with other
major league managers, have been

llornshy s gambling record at st.
Louis and New York undoubtedly
contributed to his downfall with the
Cardinals and Giants and he has
given his word to the Cub officials
that he will not indulge in any form
of gambling while with the Chicago
team.
The position Of tn, Braves is even
more distressing now than it was
during the last few weeks Of the
National League season when the
Braves played like a team Of minor
leagucrS.
Judge Fuchs has traded his best
players and named himself manager.
No new strength has been added.
Johnny EyerS, who helped the
Braves rise from the cellar to the
National League Tcnnant in 1911,
has been signed as assistant man

Calcxico hoped into the lead in
the Imperial County Night Baseball
league last night by turning in a

IN NEW YORK

New York, Oct. 24.-The "ticket
spec" is a product Of Broadway. His
economic existence is as precarious
as the physical existence Of q Chi
cago gun man.
A "spec" is vernacular for specu-
lator. He's the fellow who buys up
tickets for events that are expected
to draw great crowds and who re-
sells them at premium Of generally
rs per cent more than standard adj
mission price. His habitat is any
sidewalk. Whether this happens to
be the gate Of q baseball park, the
doorway Of Madison Square Garden
on the night of q big fight or the
many illumined theater Hobbies, the
"spec" will always be on hand with
his inevitable chant, "Good tickets
for the big show q couple Of
good ones, mister"
He is the nearest thing to a good
gambler that can be found in any
racket. For every time that he
cleans up" he gets cleaned out; his
profits and his losses are equally
heavy. He CANDLES against the ele-
ments and against the uncertain and
tickle tastes Of the crowd. He
CANDLES against the chances Of stiff
competition from unexpected quar-
tiers and against the possibility of
last minute reversal of public en-
thusiasm. Many question why he
keeps on going and still others ask
how he keeps on going. Yet there
seems to be an inexhaustlble supply
of his breed, playing for big stakes
or quick losses.
The recent world series contest
was a typical example Of the down.
fall Of the "spec." At the opening
game his sales ran heavy. But
thereafter, for some reason or other,
q drop Of $4,000 fans was recorded.
He was stuck with his tickets.
Furthermore, in the midtown section
opposition had presented itself in the
shape of huge concern that sold
at Is per cent premium and gar
nered most Of the business.
The Tunney- Dempsey fight again
landed the "spec" and uppercut.

CATHEDRAI.S


The largest individual gift yet received by the build
of the unfinished Protestant Episcopal Cathedral
Of St. Adams in Washington $1,250,00O from an
anonymous donor resident in Paris News of the gift
caused to wonder why anyone would contribute to
the building of cathedral thousands Of miles away.
It is clear that such donor scarcely requires the
cathedral for his spiritual needs.
Cathedrals possess appeal that extends beyond
the somewhat limited confines Of religious denom-
nation and Of the regular attendants at divine service
If the design is sufficiently inspiring it becomes a
community a national project. Such has been
the Of St. Adams in Washington and the Cathe-
dral of St. John the Divine in New York. Both have
received gifts from persons outside the
munion of the church.
Many Of these contributions have been inspired by
the aesthetic quality Of the cathedral dea and by its
character, not the place Of worship of religious
sect, but monument to this nations present-day
civilization.
Centuries ago some of the nations of Europe i'm
povershed themselves and their people in executing
extravagant plans for cathedral construction. The
American people, with whom the cathedral idea is
relatively new, have ample resources to in each
great city majestic pile" that will rival in beauty
and grandeur the finest examples Of medieval cathedral
construction.

Joe 7. Robinson; and it might be well to have grand

Joe T. it is, in the statements Of the national
