Recently Herman has been hit

English has been benched because

present made up Of Cuyler in left,
Demaree in center and the long
legged Herman in right.
It must not be overlooked that
this team is so close to the Giants

Chicago can beat New York out Is
a question that will have to be

versity their pitching, which had
been SO successful for the last three
or four years, suddenly seemed to 60
to pieces and they had to wait until
July before Warneke, Root, Bush,
Thinning and Malone struck their
real form. In addition, they had to
wait q long time for the return Of
Xxi Cuyler, their dependable out
fielder, to recover from a broken
ankle
While they were awaiting Cuyler's
recovery, they had to depend on
Babe Herman, who was supposed to
be good enough to keep them up in
the race. Instead Of that, however.
Herman fell down and became such
an Indifferent batsman that the
management soured on him and
actually benched him for while.
The lesson was well learned by
Herman and he braced up after
that. He has got some way to 90,

Rogers Not Likely to Take
Orders From Prexy on
Handling of Team.
BY FRANCIS J. POWERS.

CT. LOUIS, July 27-With
Rogers Hornsby as manager
~ of the st. Louis Browns,
Phillip de Catesby Ball finds
himself paying salary to a fellow
who will take no orders from the
front Office as to how a ball club
should be managed.
Hornsbys dislike of swivel-chair
assistants in the task of managing a
ball club led to his departure from
the st. Louis Cardinals and Chicago
Cubs and likewise from the New York
Giants. where he incurred the dislike
of Charles Stoneham while serving as
acting manager during one Of John
McGraw's illnesses.
Rogers thinks a club owners place
is in the Office or the front row of
box. OF late Mr.. Ball has been every
where except in the pitchers box. 60
ing on the assumption that it was his
ball club, so why not?
Hornsby Has the Stuff.
CTILL there is a chance that an
y iron-fisted character like Ball and
an iron-jawed gent like Hornsby
might get along in swell fashion. 1t
has happened. Ball always has had a
strong admiration for the truculent
Texan and might give him a free
hand, as he did managers during his
early ownership of the Browns.
Hornsby is a first-class manager of
the driving type and a little driving
would do the Browns no harm, and
Ball, seeing something of his own
makeup in Hornsby probably will let
Particularly if st. Louis residents
began displaying enough interest in
the Browns to buy ticket of admis-

Ball has had some good managers.
Dan Howley was smart base ball man
and is proving it again this year by his
success with the Toronto Club of the
International League Bill Killefer is
also a clever leader and probably will
prove it with some other major league
team next season. Unfortunately nei-
ther Howley nor Killefer could satisfy
Ball. Iornsby might and that would be
