HORNSBY STARS IN ST. LOUIS

According to One of His Ardent Admirers He Is Fully 50 Per Cent of Team. Rogers Hornsby is 50 per cent of the St. Louis ball club, according to one of his ardent admirers. Hornsby certainly looked as valuable as that in the

second game of the series between the Giants and Cardinals at the Polo grounds Wednesday, when he led his club on attack with four resounding blows, including a double and a triple, and played a sensational game at third base. Hornsby will continue to hold down third the remainder of the season. That is his natural position, the post he prefers liiost to play. Johnny Levan has been going so well as shortstop with the Cards that Hornsby will be kept at third, where he is a tower of strength.
