Hornsby Imlay wa. signed by the * hbago White Sox as a special coach of hltte ■ for the early portion of the club’s spring train-1 inx stay at Pasadena. Calif. The move to bring In Hornsby us a *i cial aide to manager Jim my Dyke- was macle by the White Sox new general manager, la-slie O'Connor, as part of the plan of rebuilding the pal ho-e diamond ft. tunes. Out e>f the second division only | six ilmc - in the pi-t 25 season-, the White Sox have been a notorI >u»!y poor hitting c lub.

Hornsby will lie cast in the- -atm- : prof, sshmal role he uxis-i fenced such great sir-* ops with in 1945 when working with Chicago sandlottery. The- Rajah spent all last summer tutoring teen-age youngsters in a baaebull iwogram aponsored by a Chicago n w-paper. He will return to that figslgnment upon completion of the- work with the sox. Hornsby’s coaching aojotirn with the- White Sox will mark lib r<i turn to big league baseball after an I ight ye ar lapse- The- Rajah's , last major league connection was with the St. Louis Browns In 1937 That brought to a close a 23 year career In the National and Amer lean league. Hornsby then ji nt three ye.i-s in the- minors with Baltimore. Chattanooga and Oklahoma City. Seven times winner of the National 1 ague- batting championship. Hornsby topped the |im mark t!ir«-c times during his <-a- --; reer. He hit 421 during the- 1921 season when with the- Cardinals • fcr a leagit mark In taking over the temporary Job with the White- Sox. Hornsby , expressed the belief he < ,i||,| I, Ip the- hose hitters improve their ■ averag w. "I wasn’t a great hitter when I broke In.” he *aid. But I worked i at improving my batting all the time- and my average- picked up steadily. I hop to show the S-n: players Jhe means of improving themselves W m| then it is up to 1 them to keep at it.” Hornsby ,s p <--it performances is a bitter and star second base man from 1915 through 1937 won him a place- in haseball’s "Hall of Fame". - -■ - ■ - 0 — County Recorder Believed Suicide I I Valparaiso.
