Bears Would Erase
Tie With Packers
In Game Today
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. GA small
town" football team which George
Halas % years ago vehemently swore
his Bears never would meet again
is the opponent of the mighty Chi
cago professional array tomorrow
in the biggest game of the National
League schedule-one expected to
attract a standing room jam of
$4,000.
These Green Bay Packers who
aroused Halas' wrath SO fercely in
1921 are the only outfit to stand off
the Bears this season. They did it
in a 21-to-2l tie in their season S
opener and have to beat the Chi
cagoans tomorrow or concede the
Western division to the Bears.
Bears Would Continue Streak.
Since then the Bears have paraded
to five straight victories, while the
champion Washington Redskins who
play the Philpitts in Philly, have
been sailing to four in row to
dominate the Eastern division.
There's pretty good game brew
ing in Detroit. The Lions vs. the
New York Giants matches two of
the seasons finest rookies-Frankie
SinkWich Of Detroit and Bill Pascal
of the Giants.
And in Brooklyn the Chicago Car
dinals will oppose the Dodgers, each
seeking its first success on the cam
paign.
But getting back to Halas' ire
over the Packers. George was
burned up that day because of
the fields condition, the attitude of
the Green Bay crowd and those
"small-toWn amateurs Pack
ers. (The Bears won, 20-0D The
only cash collected was from the
hat of a young neWSpaperman who
poked through the crowd looking
for donations.
Fans Still Hot Partisans.
Partisanship over the Packers
still is pretty violent in Green Bay.
You can start an argument and
pick up a punch in the snoot any
time you want to belittle the Pack
ers. This year they've been a fine
ball team, losing only to Washing
ton and playing a tie with the Bears,
even without Cecil Isbell to pitch
to End Don Hutson.
But Green Bay has been hard hit
OF late, Center Charley Brock, one
OF pro footballs best, had an emer-
eency appendectomy in New York
last week, and that hurt the Pack
ers as much as it panied Brock.
However Tony Canadeo has been q
capable replacement for Isbell and
HutSon'S doing all right.

Cox Plans Big Trading
To Strengthen Phillies

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. l6.-(R-
President Bill David Harum) Cox
of the Phillies let it be known to-
day that when bigger and better
baseball trades are made, he'll
make them-and, he said, he's
about to begin.
Cox, patting his checkbook fond
)y after the Phillies' most success
flu financially home season since
Abner Doubleday, disclosed that
the club has plenty of good deals
on the fire and some of them
ought to be cooked fairly soon"
Further" added the freshman
owner, who hoped for a first di-
vision team and got seventh-place
pluggers, 1--WE are negotiating to
build up a big farm system of the
sort that will assure us good ball
players for the future, and, al
though such acquisitions are hard
to make in these times, there may
be announcements along that line
before long"
Cox has had lions share of
the games manpower problems in
his first year in baseball and now
has working agreements with only
two clubs, Utica, N. Y, of the
class A Eastern League and Tren-
ton, N. j., of the class B Inter-
state League.
He probably made more deals
during the year than any other
owner in the majors. Nevertheless
there came a time when the only
catcher on his outfit was a batting
practice veteran, Benny Culp, and
when draft board notices were ar
irving almost as often as the mail
man.
Despite his troubles, however,
Cox's men attracted Just about
twice as many fans to Shibe Park
after yesterdays last home game
reached 466,976.
Since a home club gets about
