T OS ANGELES, February TO-
So far as their manager,
- Rogers Hornsby, is concern
ed, the Chicago Cubs may
play golf at their Catalina Island
Spring training camp-after the
days work is done-but the
chances are strong that soccer
will be their only diversion.
In outlining some training rules for
the team when 1t reaches the island
February II, the Rajah said today he
would put no restrictions on golf.
IT don't intend to baby the team
along" said Hornsby. I'VE are all going
to work and work hard. While I don't
think mixing golf with base ball Is good
for a player, it's Ok with me after
the days workout Is finished-if they
care to play" The Rajah laughed
meaningly.
Thinks Golf Hurts Hitters.
Golf might not hurt the pitchers,
but think it affects the hitters' swing.
When they hit a golf ball they are
striking stationary object. Another
thing, hitting q golf ball is an upward
swing, which In the long run may cause
q hitter to loft his hits also. This might
result in lot of useless pop flies"
With this of his mind, Hornsby spoke
more seriously of Spring training. II
think we'll try soccer foot ball this
Spring. saw some games in st. Louis
and it struck me that this was the game
to get the legs and wind in condition. :
Take the pitchers, for example. ]
expect them to be able TO do five innings
without straining themselves when we
launch our exhibition series March 49,"
Likes Hurting Stan.
Hornsby Is convinced he has bet
ter hurting staff than was on the Cub
roster last season. He expects much of
Frank May, Cincinnati, and Lester
Sweetland, Philadelphia, pair Of left
handlers, and Robert Smith, Boston, new
acquisitions.
AS evidence that the veterans on the
squad will have tough row to hoe,
John (Sheriff) Blake, and Perez (Pat)
Malone, are already on hand.
Rogers is convinced that IL the Cubs
get any good breaks this year they will
go long way toward winning the Ma
tional League pennaht He does not
think the new ball viii change the game
much.

with Loughran and Baer.
II Tommy Loughran were hard hit
ter, he could stop fighters of the Brad
dock or Baer type in few rounds. AS
it is, Lougnran simply nils their faces
with left hands, keeps them OF and
generally makes them look foolish; II
somebody only would hold Loughran
until they could get q couple of good
socks at him, 1t might be different.
This last bout must have convinced
Baer that there is more to boxing than
Q punch.
QUITTING Laughran in with Jack
sharkey is very different matter.
Sharkey not only is q pretty good
hitter, but he also Is q very good boxer;
the best Of all the big men In the ring
today.
Baer was reported to have said that
he would like to meet Sharkey. The
Californian Is quite q distance from
being ready for such an opponent. He
would have a better chance against
Schmeling than against Sharkey.
There still is q possibility Of .
Sharkey- Camera bout. Such q bout
would draw, which Is what all hands
connected with 1t would be after. It
also would leave one outstanding man
to box the winner of the Strhling-
Schmeling match for the title. This
would mean another big gate.
PROFESSIONAL foot ball must re-
gard the efforts of the colleges to
lessen the emphasis on the game
with great favor The professionals
didn't have any too easy time when
they started, because they could not
compete with the amateurs in popu.
larity; but gradually the interest In the
college foot ball, In comparison with
the professional game, may be as rela.
lively unimportant as college base ball.
