Maryland and Georgetown

The ECAC has urged its
members not to compete in the
meets unless they are sane
toned by the United States
Track and Field Federation,
Georgetown is a member of the
ECAC, but Maryland is not.
Jack Hagerty, athletic direc-
tor at Georgetown, said that
the schools athletic board de-
cided yesterday that since the
Hoyas had been competing in
the meets for years they would
continue to do so.
At Maryland, Coach Jim Ke-

school officials and had gotten
a directive from Commissioner
Jim Weaver of the Atlantic
Coast Conference. Neither sug-
gested a change in policy.
"As of the moment, we are

The Hornsby family said that
he had requested that no flow

that any donations should go
to the National Heart Fund.
Led Cards to Flag
The blunt-Spoken Hornsby
as a brilliant second baseman
and playing manager, led the
1925 st. Louis Cardinals tc
their first pennant and a World
Series conquest of the New York
Yankees.
He also managed the Boston
Braves, Chicago Cubs. st. Louis
Browns (twice) and Cincinnati
Reds. His frankness and rugged
individualism contributed to
his dismissal five times as q
big league manager, the last
time by the Cincinnati Reds or
September II, 1858.

RAJAH'S RECORD

December IA when he developed
what then was described as a
fibrillating heart (rapid twitch-
ing Of the heart muscle instead
of regular pumping action and
a resulting clot weakened his
left arm and left leg.
The last hospital report on
Hornsby's condition was made
Wednesday. 1t said he would
be in the hospital at least two
weeks. At the time Hornsby
was quoted as refusing any in
terviews or news pictures.
Hornsby, inducted into aBse-
balls Hall of Fame in 1912,
still holds the National League
record of consecutive batting
'crowns-six, from 1920 through
l925-and his record of batting
over 400 three seasons is
matched only by Ty Cobb in
modern big league history.
Like Cobb, Hornsby batted
over 400 two successive sea-
sons. Rajah did it with the
Cardinals in 1924 when he
fashioned his epic .424 average
and in 1925 with .403. Cobb hit
.420 in 1911 and .410 in 1912.
Hornsby was the National
Leagues most valuable player
twice-in 1925 with the Car
dinals and 1929 with the Cubs.
Hornsby, who like Cobb had
fanatical hate of defeat, had
a lifetime batting average of
1853, topped only by Cobb's
American League career record
of 1867. Rogers 22-season ca
reer also included play with
the New York Giants, and the
Braves, but he finished with
his first club, the Cardinals
in 1887.
Controversies Begin
In 1925, after repeatedly re-
jecting a then huge $4,000
contract, Hornsby was traded
as a World Series champion
pilot to the Giants for frankie
Frisch. Then began the Rajah's
controversy packed baseball
career.
After the Cubs paid the
Braves 100000 cash and five
players for Hornsby, the Chi
cago club released him in 1885,
and he was investigated by
Commissioner Kenesaw Noun,
tain lands for repeatedly Dor,
