FRISCH STARS
PUT ON BLOCK
Every Player but Deans
May Be Sold, Says
Branch Hickey.
BY JOE WILLIAMS
Times Sports Writer.

ST. LOUIS. Sept. 28.--It isn't
often you see a major league cham
pionship decided, a winning streak
extended to 81 consecutive games,
and a great ball club come to the
end of the road all in one after
noon.
That's what I saw out here yes
terday after climbing out of plane
to watch the Cubs trounce~ the
Cards in a double-heade in teeth
chattering weather before some
10000 melancholy locals
The formal clinching of the
championship by the Cubs wasn't
attended by any exciting circum-
stances.
Of much greater Importance was
the fact that the customers, though
they didn't realize it at the time
were watching the famous gas house
gang. or the happy hoodlums, &c
through one of their last per-
formances as st. Louis troupe
The gas house gang is through. II
is to be completely dismantled.
This information comes to us from
Mr. Branch Hickey, inventor of the
much copied chain-team system
which has brought st. Louis five
championships in the last nine
years.
1--WE are willing to trade or sell
every man on the club with the ex-
ception of the two Deans" said Mr.
Hickey. In fact, the Cards are
getting ready to undergo the most
drastic Shakeup they have known ir
10 years"
This means that among other
things the inimitable Pepper Mar
tin is on the block. 1 have the
word of Mr.. Hickey that he won't
be back next season.
And this goes, too, for Ducky-
Wucky Medwick.
Frank FriSch, the manager, prob
ably will be back. Mr.. Hickey has
not the last word on this. not be-
irg the owner of the club, but ne
feels the erStwhile flash from Ford
ham is entitled to a new contract
despite the fact he failed to bring
the Cards home a repeater.

After a cabinet meeting in which
Premier BenitO MuSsolini reported
on recent developments in the

issued a communique embodying
four main provisions. They were:
Il. Italy will not abandon the
League until the day when the
League has assumed full response
bility for measures against Italy"
-. Italy's policy has no immedi-
ate or remote aims which might
injure efforts of Great Britain"
80. The Fascist government de-
clares in the most solemn manner
that it will avoid everything that
may extend the Ethiopian conflict
to a wider field"
a. The cabinet takes note of the
calmneSs and discipline of which the
Italian people are giving proof IN
these days SO full of events, an at
titude which is characteristic of
strong people"
