RUMORS OF FOUR
TEAMS INVOLVED
IN PLAYER SWAP
BY JACK CUDDY
United Press Staff Correspondent

NEW YORK, Oct. 18.-The trade
winds threaten to blow a lot of
National League baseball players
into strange uniforms before spring
training starts.
That Boston rumor about the
Braves, New York Giants, Chicago
Cubs and Cincinnati Reds negoti-
ating a four cornered exchange of
about $500,000 worth of players re-
fects activity, if nothing else.
And the rumor, itself, may not
be so silly as the club officials
would have the press believe. Rep
resentatives of the four clubs were
quick to deny the report-that is,
all except that frank southerner,
Memphis Bill Terry, manager of
the Giants. At his home in Ten
nessee, Bill admitted that the "big
DEAL might come off.
Judge Emil Fuchs of the Boston
Braves denied emphatically that
his club was involved in a trans
action which would Cd send Fred
dy Lindstrom and Frank Hogan of
the Giants to the Cubs in ex-
change for Pat Malone, Kiki Guy
Ter and Gabby Hartnett; CD then
transfer Cuyler and Hartnett to
the Braves for Wally Berger, CD
with the understanding that Ma
lone would go from the Giants to
the Reds in exchange for Babe
Herman.
Jim Tierney, secretary of the
Giants, denied that the New York
club was involved in such deal,
but it is. we'll known in baseball
circles that Manager Terry has
approached practically every club
in the league with trade PROPOSE
tions and has welcomed proposals
from other managers.
Brooklyn apparently is not mixed
up in Boston deal, but the Flat
bush officials are as busy as hun
cry hens. They'll trade with any
body if they can get good pitchers
and a first baseman. Max Carey,
manager of the Dodgers, is down
in st. Louis trying to wangle Sum
ny Jim Bottomley away from Sam
Breadon of the Cardinals. If he
can't get Bottomley, he may con-
slider Jimmy Collins or Pat Craw-
ford. Carey also has his eye on
Sam Leslie of the Giants.
A representative of the Dodgers
admitted last night that the club
would spend up to 100000 to give
the fans a colorful, fighting team.
They'll buy, sell or exchange.
CHICAGO, Oct. 18-U.P)-Pat
Malone Kiki Cuyler and Gabby
Hartnett may not play with the
Chicago Cubs next season, but they
will not be traded to the New York
Giants for Freddy Lindstrom and
Frank Hogan.
Titcomb, president of the Southern
ically denied today that any such
trade was brewing despite rumors
that a four deal was vir-
tually closed. The Giants, accord
ing to the rumor, would send Guy
ler. Hartnett and another out
fielder to the Boston Braves for
Wally Berger and Malone to Gin

Untteu ffeSS stan correspondent
NEW YORK, Oct. Is. - Death
All taxes are certain, yes, but not
one whit more sure than that the
close of the season some dope with
more time than gumption will sit
down and figure out how Missis-
slppi Institute of Tree Surgery and
Applied Gymnastics has the best
football team in the country.
OF course, we use the Mississip-
pi school only as an example. As
q matter of fact M. I. T. S. A. G..
Cor the Mitsaga as they are known
lost its chance for top rating in
that tie with Montana Conserva-
Z. tory of Tanning and Canning.
Already we have received a let
ter signed " Maine Fan in which
Bowdoin is named as the best team
in the United States to date.
'"Maine Fan" says in part:
II see where Pittsburgh and
Tennessee and Notre Dame and
lot of the other big fellows are
being picked as the standout teams
in the country. What about Bow
doin? A study of the comparative
scores shows Bowdoin right around
the top. And if Yale Doesn't get
beaten by more than one touch
down by Army Saturday, Bowdoin
will be above them all. Let me
show you why.
Lets assume that Army beat
Yale 14-7. Bates ties Yale 90.
Tufts beat Bates 14-0. Bowdoin
tied Tufts 90. So this makes
Bowdoin IA points better than Yale
and seven points better than
Army.
"As Pittsburgh was but five
points better than Army, Bowdoin
is two points stronger than Pitts
burgh. AS the Panthers are going
to win the national champion
ship, Bowdoin is going to wind up
the season two points better than
the champion. The ony thing
Bowdoin will have to worry about
then is having Tufts claim half
the title as result of that tie
game"
Argument No Good
Most of Maine Fans" argument
is haywire. Pittsburgh isn't going
10 win any national championship.
Notre Dame will kick the Pan
theirs easily and so will Stanford.
But we've got a hunch he's right
on one thing. And that is his as
sumption that Army will find 1t
tough going with Yale. Rated
strictly off past performances
Army should slaughter team
that couldn't do better than tie
Bates and Chicago and lose to
Brown.
But that game in the bowl Sat
urday is likely to surprise. Yales
got to click sometime. The Blue
has too much fine material to go
along in the doldrums all season.
Backfield men like Lassiter and
Crowley don't stand to be shackled
all the time. And that big line is
about ready to get mad and shake
the lead out of it's shoes
However, Army isn't likely to be
the same team that fought Pitt
with such a fine frenzy. The SOL
diers were inspired last week, silly
as that may sound, and inspiration
doesn't come every game. Believ-
ing Yale a nudge-over the soldiers
are apt to let down. Too, the
Cadets took lot of pounding in
the Pittsburgh game. There is
some talk of several of the first
stringers not facing Yale. All of
this may be just mess of spin
ach, but somehow we feel there's
going to be a right pert brawl in
New Haven.

AUTUMN OUTLOOK
FOR MARKET GOOD
Wall Street Economists Point
to Absence of Usual
Spring Pickup.
BY CLAUDE A. JAEGER,


NEW YORK. July 30.-Wall Streets
economists, who have been inclined to
err on the side of optimism at this
between-season period in each of the
past three years, again are sitting down
with their graphs, chastened in spirit,
but perhaps wiser in experience.
An aspect of the charts for 1882 to
date which seems to augur well for the
Autumn, a number agree, Is the fact
that the line of industrial production
shows an extraordinary absence of the
usual pickup In the Spring. Autumn
and Spring are periods of normal busi-
ness acceleration. The accumulation of
consumer needs not filled during the
Spring may give things a boost in the
Autumn.
Since 1929 Autumn has been disap-
pointing. 1t was particularly so last
year, when the worldwide disturbance
incident to the collapse Of the pound
sterling and the domestic banking
troubles prompted potential buyers to
tighten purse strings.
But even in bad times. the charts
show, occasional waves of consumer
buying sweep the country. Excepting
the inevitable pickup in January. the
line Of industrial production has been
QeCllnlng, DuL al gradually SldcKen1ng
pace since April, 1881. During this de-
cline, the chart readers assume. essen
tial things such as clothing and house.
hold furnishings have been wearing out,
and despite the shrinkage of buying
power, it would not take much pickup
in buying to give business a substantial
bounce.
This is the season when manufac-
turers get started on their output for
the Fall and Winter trade. Mills Of
one sort and another, particularly
manufacturers of consumers goods, are
starting up here and there throughout
the country, and merchants buyers are
coming to the wholesale markets to
look over samples.
The stage is set. An upturn in the
securities markets and In some Of the
commodities has presumably tended to
prepare public psychology as well as
to increase purchasing power. But
much may depend. the chart readers
agree, on the avoidance Of any new
shock, such as the British lapse from
the gold standard last Autumn.

BUSINESS IN JULY

Checkered Shades of Lights

Trends of Month.
BY the Associated Press.

by Jne ASSOCldIeQ fIeSSs
NEW YORK, July 3O.-The month of
July has followed quite closely the
checkered course of most July months
in the past.
Alternating shades of black and
white in the business and financial pic
ture have attracted close study.
"If present gains hold" said one bank
executive, the average man may feel
like buying that new suit of clothes.
Business should improve. But it's
natural to hold new purchases down to
the minimum until the public finds just
how business, and itself. are going to
stand"
Among the darker shades have been
the following
The latest available carloading state
ment stood. at 504,094 cars against 5l8,-
409 for the corresponding week one
month ago. a decrease of 27 per cent.
Electric power production for the week
last reported declined 19 per cent.
On the bright side were listed these
items:
The bond market, as shown by the
Associated Press-Standard Statistics
averages. moved up 10 per cent in aver
age price level during July. The more
speculative stock market ran up about
80 per cent. Wheat prices rallied about
6 per cent and cotton prices gained
cbout the same. Avereg ge hog prices
held steadily to their price gains scored
during June.
The recent rush of foreign capital to
convert dollar balances into European
currencies has passed, with return flow
developing in this direction.

Better grades cattle brought higher

hogs were up some. and the slaughter

There were some freak
ish fluctuations, particularly in the cat
tie market, owing to uneven distribu-
tion of receipts.
With extraordinary small receipts
Monday choice steers scared to a top
of $975 at Chicago, which equaled the
highest price since January. Unex-
pectedly heavy receipts on Tuesday
brought a decline, but the market for
the week was characterized as good"
choice fed steers and long yearlings re-
naming from 25 to 40 cents higher
than in the previous week.
Heifers Up 50 Gents.
Good heifers sold about so cents
higher than a week ago, but the trade
in grassers was slow. The top Of S9.75
was paid for 1,134 and 1923 pound
steers Monday and for 1,145-pound
averages Wednesday. while the best long
yearlings brought $3.50
After the reaction from Mondays

$3.50 upward; short-fed and warmed
I'D offerings sold at S6 to $3.50 and
grassers on down to 81. Bulls, plain
lightweights and vealers also advanced
slightly over the previous week.
The changes in hog prices for the
week were small weights below 24O
pounds being steady to 10 cents higher
and heavyweights being steady to Is
cents lower. Packing sows as well as
pigs remained on about the same levels
as a week ago.
Receipts at the IL large centers for
the first four days of the week totaled
277. 900 head, $4,000 more than a week
ago and 5000 more than a year ago:
The Chicago supply was $1,000 head
against $500 week ago and 72,6OO
a year ago.
Extreme weight butchers were not In
demand although supplies were linn
tied. Light and medium weight hogs,
however, found a steady outlet to ship
pers and the smaller Chicago packing
houses. Thin and grassy underweights
were unpopular.
Lambs Advance.
From a low top of $475 on Wednes-
day of last week, hogs advanced to
$5.15 as the week started, but the de-
cline Tuesday reduced the top to So.
Thursdays peak was $5.O5.
With the range supply nearly cut in
two, choice lambs advanced to $685.
on Tuesday, but dropped within few
hours to S6.25. This was followed by
market readjustment, affecting all
classes, and by Thursday prices were
steady to 25 cents higher than the
previous week.
Native lambs fiuctuated less than
rangers, remaining 25 cents behind the
latter at the high mark. The majority
sold around Sc. Lambs going at $3.50
were not strictly choice, but compared
favorably with the $685. Washlngtons
bought by a Chicago packer on Tues
day.
Late last week similar lambs did not
go higher than $5.95, showing the i'm

WHAT NEXT?

The past election gave the Democrats the victory they
have been asking for and gave the Republicans the de-
feat they have asked for by their past three administers
lions. America has risen in wrath and given Hoover the
worst defeat suffered by a president seeking e-election.
The Democrats face the greatest opportunity of a life
time. Theirs is the opportunity of once more becoming
the major party of the United States. If they carry out
the liberal policies advocated by their candidate they
can make history, and Roosevelt will go down in history
with Washington and Lincoln. If they follow the pol
icies of party leaders Of the past and allow the large
interests to dominate their actions, Roosevelt will go
down as even a larger failure than Hoover, and the Dem
ocratic party will sink into eternal oblivion.
Two alternatives face the newly-elected administra-
ton; Fascism or Socialism. The election returns tolled
the knell Of capitalism. Fascism is the alternative de-
sired by capital, and had Hoover been elected Fascism
would have been the order of the day, with its resulting
rioting and probable revolution. Thinking people knew
this, and hence the Roosevelt landslide. Roosevelt, per-
sonally, tends toward Socialist theories, and given an
opportunity Socialism may come to us through the ranks
of Democracy. If Franklin d. shows any of the quail
ties Of his famous cousin he can put into practice his
ideals and save not only his party but his country.
We will anxiously await results from the new admin
istration. There will be no alibis to offer, for Roosevelt
is taking with him a Democratic Congress and Senate,
The stage is set. The actors in this political drama gave
great promise at the ~try-outs. We hope for their success
for what they do or fail to do will be the difference
between readjustment and revolution. Their success will
save us from the last.
May the name Roosevelt once more go down in history
with glory.
