Talking It Over WITH JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, Oct. 30. THAT Rogers Hornsby would remain with the Cubs was stated most vociferously by William Wriglay the other day. And now we have supporting testimony in the purchase by Chicago of Lester Bell, third baseman, from the Braves. Hornsby is one of the few persons In the National league who still believe Bell is a great inflelder, and Lester will be placed under the guidance of Hornsby in an effort to prove that “Rog” has the correct dope. a a a Tbst the Cohn needed * etronrer defeat* areand third wa* known all *eaaaa. and the fact wai etrested stroneW be the warld aerie* In whieh third bate play was nat a atrlklne feature of the Chlcao effort. It beeame certain that aa aoon at thlnre oaleted down Joe McCarthy would try to *el another ruardlan for the hot earner. He did not wait lone. Neeotlattona for Bell were aiarted the day after the aerlo# eloaed. and the deal wa* contaminated with aomethlne like 120.000 ebanrtnr hand*. a m • Os course. Bell was not happy in Boston. But even with that considered, he does not shape up as a factor for definite uplift for the Cubs. Bell had a whale of a season in 1926. but he hasn’t played up to that form since then. In this neck of the woods baseball men take the position that McCarthy still <s looking for a third sacker. a a a IT is understock that before buying Bell, Bill Veeck sounded out John McGraw on Freddie Ltndstrom, and then got a turndown from the Phillies on Pinkie Whitney. McGraw was in no mood for helping Chicago bolster its position, and Bill Baker was in no position to consider selling Whitney at any price, after the great Improvement registered by his club in 1929. a a a The Braves apparently will epen the 1930 seaaon with C.ene Robertson on third hate. Red Rollinca. former Red Sox third •acker drafted from Hollywood, also will have ta be considered. If there had been any laelination In Flatbush t trade Oaity Vance for Hornsby, It seem* to have been knocked on the bead hv the definite stand af Chicago on the matter of retaining •■Rot” aroond second base. a a a That the Giants and White Sox will tour Mexico next March is definite There will be six or seven games in the republic to the south, These will be arranged by John McGraw himself.

The White Sox will train in San Antonio, too, so that the Alamo city again will have the two major league clubs in its midst, Some years ago the Tigers, under Cobb, trained in “San Antone” along with the Giants.

Anderson on Long End in Furious Bout Eddie and Reed Give Ring Fans Wild Action; Norton Victor. Only the barest of shades was won by Cowboy Eddie Anderson of Cody, Wyo., from Jimmie Reed of Erie, Pa., Tuesday night when the two lightweights clashed in the tenround main go of the American Legion’s weekly mitt card at the Armory. The Reed-Anderson bout had action as its keynote throughout. At the close of ten rounds of furious milling, the knockdown count stood five to three in Anderson’s favor, but one of the rounds, the second, saw the Eric lad take a count of nine early in the round and oome back with a two-handed attack that had Anderson reeling at the bell. Anderson centered his attack on a well-cauliflowered ear of his opponent, using a hard, twisting overhand right. Reed scored consistently with a left jab but could do damage only with his right, also. Mutt Marsh, Cincinnati, and Young Eiler. Louisville, middleweights, fought six rounds to a draw in the semi-windup. Reamer Roberts, Indianapolis lightweight, had slightly the better of Vincent Hogue. Cincinnati, in six rounds.

Young Frenchy and Sonny Mitchell, Indianapolis bantams, slugged four rounds to a draw in the curtain raiser. A well-filled auditorium was on hand for the show.

Fight for Sectional Honors Narrows; Dartmouth Is Eastern Leader. BIG SIX, WEST CLOSE U. S. C.-Irish Tilt May Settle National Title. BY GEORGE KIRKSEY, United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, Oct. 30.—With the football season half over the struggle for sectional honors In all parts of the country is rapidly narrowing itself to a small field of contenders. The October ranking of the nation’s leading teams by the United Press follows: East—d) Dartmouth. (2) Pittsburgh. (3) Yale (beaten by Georgia). (4) Cornell. Middle West—<l> Notre Dame. (2) Minnesota. (3) Purdue. (4) Ohio State (tied by Indiana). (5) Illinois, (tied by Iowa). Big Six Deadlocked Big Six—(l) Nebraska and Missouri (tied each other). South—(l) Tennessee. (2) Tulane. (3) Kentucky. (4) Louisiana State. (5) Clemson. Southwest—(l) Texas. (2) Texas Christian. (3) Southern Methodist (tied twice). Far West— and) South California. (2) California (tied by St. Mary’s.) Leaders Face Tests The three eastern leaders will face severe tests this week. Dartmouth and Yale clash at New Haven in a game which may go a long way toward deciding the eastern champion. Pittsburgh encounters a strong foe in the unbeaten Ohio State eleven at Pittsburgh. Notre Dame, which has hopes of winning the national football championship, goes south to meet Georgia Tech at Atlanta. Tennessee, which hasn’t lost a game in three years, but has been tied, will face an easy opponent in Auburn this week. Tulane will be tested to the limit by Georgia, which has beaten Yale and North Carolina, but has lost to Oglethorpe and Florida, Texas Goal Uncrossed Missouri and Nebraska, outstanding teams in the Big Six, played a 7-7 tie last week, and appear formidable enough to complete their conference schedules without defeat. Two of the southwest’s leaders, Texas and Southern Methodist, meet in a crucial game at Dallas. Texas is one of the few elevens in the country with an uncrossed goal line. On the Pacific coast. Southern California can clinch the far western championship by defeating California Saturday. If the Trojans beat the Golden Bears and Notre Dame wins from Georgia Tech and Drake in its next two games, the Southern California-Notre Dame game at Chicago Nov. 16 is quite likely to play an important role in determining the outstanding eleven for 1929.

Spears Says He Actually Fears Indiana Minnesota Works Hard for Hoosier Invasion: Nagurski to Play Full. Bu Timre Special MINNEAPOLIS. Oct. 30. Believe it or not—but Dr. Spears, director of Minnesota's gridiron destinies, “fears Indiana.” At least that’s what he told the Gophers after hearing the reports of scouts who witnessed the Hoosier-Ohio State' game last Saturday. And just by way of good measure, the scout backed up the story verbally before the entire squad. Tuesday Doc sent his charges through a snappy drill, and today he planned a scrimmage against Hoosier plays. Bronko Nagurski, who apparently does everything but lace up the football, probably will be used as a plunging full back against Indiana. Nagurski was an all-Conference tackle before he moved to the backfield, and when he played part of the time at the post last season, some of the critics were ready to award him double honors. Art Pharmer, tied with Harmeson of Purdue as the leading Big Ten scorer; the veteran “Win” Brockmeyer; Kirk, a newcomer, and Barnhart, another veteran, also are backs of quality. WABASH DRILL LIGHT Bu United Preen CRAWFORDSVILLE, Ind., Oct. 30.—Several of the kinks were taken from the aching muscles of Coach Vaughan’s scarlet eleven in a long but light scrimmage as Wabash prepared Tuesday for the Friday night tussle with Manchester.

Referee Jack Kennedy finally lifted Walker’s hand as a matter of form there was not a dissenting voice at the ringside. Kennedy gave Walker six rounds, Hudkins one and called three even. Primed for his second shot at i Walker's title, Hudkins appeared a little overtrained. At any rate he could not match the cool, hard-hit-i ting champion. Mickey was in excellent condition. He made pounds without trouble. Hudkins, who came to the ring weighing 156 pounds, started his rushing tactics at the first bell, but found Mickey ready to meet him. The champion took the first three rounds by jabbing the rushing HudI kins and had Ace badly cut over the left eye. Hudkins started his long range hitting attack in the fourth round aijd managed to connect often enough to offset Mickey's vicious jabs. The round was called even. Hudkins went back to his boring tactics during the next two rounds and the champion pecked away with damaging rights and lefts. The challenger made his strongest bid in the seventh round when he jarred Mickey at the start with a long left swing to the Jaw. The Wildcat tried to follow up his advantage but ran into a whirlwind attack and the round ended even up. In the eighth Hudkins won his only round of the fight by a shade. The ninth round was a hard slugging frame and was called even. Hudkins came bouncing out of ! his corner in the final round to try : for a knockout. He backed Walker j to the ropes with a body attack, but j Mickey sent him back with an up- | percut. The champion was cutting i Ace’s face as the round and fight ended.
