nr*HF. baseball wags now are saying Frankie Frisch accepted the appointment as manager of the Cardinals “to make sure of getting out of St. Louis.” It is known he tried to get himself traded or sold for two years. The catch is that any Cardinal manager has his head in the noose. Win constantly or he's snuffed out. It is said when the Giants offered $30,000 for Frisch la*t summer to succeed .John Mcliiaw, before Bill Terry w as named Giant pi lot, that St. Louis lemanded $50,000 and that Frankie offered to pay $20,000 of his own money to swing the deal. It was no dice. a a a a a a \ CCORDING to information received from th' east. Bill Terry will be /\ a candidate for the padded cell if his Giants stumble, strike a slump snd lose the lead They say Bill sees red now even in a close game and in the event of a defeat the Giant dugout and clubhouse are bad spots to lie in when Terry Roes delirious And so younß, too!

Rogers Hornsby
BY GEORGE KIRKSEY Initrd Press Staff Correspondent CHICAGO, July 29.—1 t was ham and egg time when Rogers Hornsby walked into the main dining room of the Del Prado hotel Friday and made his first contact with the players of the St. Louis Browns, whom he will manage for the rest of this season and the next two. Around the tables, where they sat in twos and threes, Hornsby, swaggering his old-time brusque j confidence, called to greet each player with a smile, a ball player's handclasp, and a ‘ Hello, buddy, How'reya.” Hornsby radiated the enthusiasm of a rookie making his first appearance in th? big show, and nothing at all like a man who has spent eighteen years in the National League, managed three clubs—the Cardinals. Braves and Cubs—and barely found a. minor job a? a utility player with the Cardinals last winter after being fired as Cubs’ manager. The players welcomed Hornsby enthusiastically. There won't be any immediate | changes in the last-place Browns. "I'll just get acquainted with the players for a few days." said Horns- , by. "I may not make any changes in the batting o’-der or lineup for sometime. I'm building for next year, and there'll be no radical changes now." One of the few members of the Browns’ whom Hornsby knows is Allan Sothoron. coach and acting manager since Bill Killefer's dismissal in Washington recently. Sothoron. who played under Hornsby when Rajah managed th? Cardinals in 1926. will be retained as coach. Hornsby plans to be a playingmanager. but will only use himself as pinch hitter and utility fielder.
f HOOTING -
' | 'HE twelfth annual Indiana women’s state championship is over. As predicted, the defenaing champion. Mrs. Penn G. Skillern of South Bend, was dethroned, and Miss Elizabeth Dunn, Indianapolis links queen, gained her fourth state title. But Mrs. Skillern, who has been firing only mediocre golf all season at home, did not fold up as easily as we had expected. She used good judgment in passing up the qualifying round last Monday and spent the day in practice. She claimed No. 1 position in the match play bracket by virtue of her title and went along to defend it until the final match Friday, and then relinquished it only to unbeatable golf. U tt U That final battle was a thriller all the way. Mrs. Skillern took a two up lead on the first four holes. But Miss Dunn came back to win three in a row. two of them with birdies. Mrs Skillern won the eighth hole with a par to square the match, and then birdied the ninth to halve with Miss Dunn and keep the match square. ana Thfn ' Quevr, Eiu'ibfth brok' loo* She btrdivd thi tenth and won the 'ieventh with a par A for v-foot putt that wax in all the wav save her the twelfth, and a tan from 30-feet that plunked in ftaie her a birdie and win on the thirtenth Mts Dunn ended the battle on the fourteenth when she approached within thre* f<*eof the cup for another birdie and a 5 and 4 title victory. oaa Those men at Hichland could not overlook the brand of *oif Mini Dunn ahot all week.
