Clash at North SiderS'
Field.
IRISH TO FIGHT HARD
Catholic Team to Make
Stern Effort.
BY DICK MILLER

A debate that has existed for
years between local high school grij
fans over the respective abilities
of Cathedral and Shortridge will
come up for actual settlement Fri
day when the Irish meet the Blue
and White at Shortridge field, 600
West Forty-third street. A large
turnout is expected to view the hos
tilities.
This is the first year since Cathe-
dral met and defeated Manual sew
eral years ago that the Catholic
team has been given an opportunity
OF testing it's strength with the To-
cal public high school teams.
A month ago Cathedral sent
Washington down to defeat, 31-6,
but the weSt-siderS, who are COM
peting in their second year of the
grid sport can not be used as com
parison Of the best strength of the
local high schools.
With Shortridge, however, it is a
different story. The north siders,
under the coaching of Lon Colds
berry, have made a rapid rise in
football. The past two years found
them city champions.
Last week the blue romped over
Manual, $50, and again loom as
a great team. Technical also has
a strong team and the city public
high school championship probably
will be decided Nov. 16 when the
two rivals meet.
Cathedral this fall is not as strong
as the usual elevens turned out by
Coach Joe Sexton. Sexton saw prac-
tically all of his 1927 team receive
diplomas last June and his team
this fall is a green one.
On a score basis Shortridge car
rieS the dope edge. Cathedral de-
feated Garfield of Terre Haute, 60,
while Shortridge beat Garfield, 1876
Shortridge defeated Sheridan, 60,
and Sheridan dropped the Irish,
1875.
Past scores mean nothing, how
ever, for the members Of both teams
are in trim to battle ito the last
ditch" Coach Goldsberry has his
team in excellent condition. Sexton
will throw everything he has into
the struggle in an effort to gain
victory that would cut Cathedral
into the local interscholastic title
honors. The game Friday will be
called at 2 o'clock.

age Boston Club Next
Season.

BIZ United Press
BOSTON, Nov. 8.-Affirming the
sale of Rogers Hornsby, manager of
the Boston Braves, to the Chicago
Club, Judge Emil Fuchs, president
of the Braves, said today he would
assume the managership OF the
team.
Charles F. Adams, sportsman and
financier induced Judge Fuchs to
take over the managers duties with
the Braves, Fuchs said.
II have decided to try" he added.
Johnny Evers, who captained the
Braves when they won the worlds
championship in 1914; will act as
Judge Fuchs assistant, according
to the announcement which was
made by the Braves president.
Fuchs said that the Hornsby trade
had, been arranged at Hornsby's
suggestion and that he left the club
with the good will of my asso-
ciates and myself"
when it became evident during
the season." Fuchs said, that for
many reasons he could not succeed
in his efforts, Hornsby was frank
and loyal enough to suggest to me
the Braves might benefit sufficiently
to more than balance his great hit
ting ability by securing the services
of young aggressive players of good
record and ability, and Chicago, in
return, would benefit through the
acquisition of player of his great
record and ability"

Knute Rockne and his fighting Irish
Of Notre Dame will make their Dig
gest effort to win a place among the
gridiron leaders of the season when
they tackle the powerful Army
eleven at Yankee stadium Saturday.
When the records to date of the
two teams are compared, the Irish
appear to have little chance, but
despite this fact the Irish will go
to New York prepared to put up a
battle.
With Fred Collins at full back
again they have one of the most
versatile back fields in the game.
Chevigny and Niemiec already have
won fame for their ability to circle
ends and slash off tackles. Collins
is a line plunger of the highest
grade.
With these three men to carry the
ball, and Niemiec to pass and kick,
the Irish will be able to offer a
complex offense to offset the bril-
liant Chris eagle, Army's back
field ace.
Injuries and lack of reserve
strength have handicapped the Irish
all season. Rockne is trying to
overcome the latter defect this week.

CHICAGO, Nov. 8.-Rogers Horns
by today had become one of the
worlds highest priced baseball play
ers through his transfer to the Chi
cago Cubs from the Boston Braves.
1t is just one more reputation for
the premier batsman Of the Ma
tional League, but the Chicago
Cubs are prideful that they gave
the most money, and money value
in players, that ever had been given
for a baseball player.
President William Veeck of the
Cubs, announced Wednesday night
that Hornsby had been obtained in
exchange fo- five players and an
unnamed sum, the highest con-
sideration ever given" The five
players are Freddy MCGUIRE, second
baSenian: Percy Jones, left handed
pitcher; Louis Leggett, catcher;
Harry Siebold, pitcher and Bruce
Cunningham.
There is little question but that
the total Of cash and players will
represent close to the 100000 mark.
In addition the Cubs must assume
Hornsby's three-year contract which
is reputed to call for salary pay
ment of $4,000 annually.
In 1926, Hornsby managed the st.
Louis Cardinals TO a world series
victory. Hornsby was traded to the
Giants after the series. He spent
fha yoor &c oceicfo,of fN N6oTS~a,,,
but at the end Of the season unex-
pectedly was traded to Boston.
With the Braves he again assumed
National League batting honors, but
as manager could lift the team no
higher than seventh place.
Go out and get Hornsby if money
will do it, was Wrigleys order at
the close of last season.
Hornsby was born in Winters,
The Indianapolis times., 1928-11-08

Cardinals, Giants, Braves and
now it's the Cubs for Rogers
Hornsby, king of the right-handed
hitters and the mystery" of the
big leagues. In 1926 he piloted the
st. Louis Cardinals to pennant
and the worlds series title and
since then he's been on the move,
figuring in a big deal every win
ter that sees him performing with
a new club each year.
He'll now try a campaign with
Joe McCarthy'S Cubs as second
sacker and his bat is expected to
bring a pennant TO Chicago. He
got too much money for Boston to
stand, but the element of mys-
terry still clings to the deals that
sent him from st. Louis to New
York and from New York to
Boston.
