Minneapolis Journal. Sports .Jl-v DoneBrowh By NORMAN E. BROWN Sports Writer for Central Press and The Statesman OGERS Hornsby undoubtedly has the usual number of hu man frailties. Probably Sam Breadon and John McGraw will Insist he has more than the usual number. Rogers has had a hectic career in baseball... Matters apart. from the game Itself have placed him in unfavorable lights at times matters from domestic troubles to gambling escapades. But, brothers, there is one thing that has been brought to mind of recent date regarding Mr. Hornsby that perhaps was over looked for a time. ' That is that he is a BATTER! Any boy who can lead a major league in stick work for six con secutive years must have the stuff. Anybody wbo, having turned that trick, can come back after a lapse of two years and add an other title to the list, is just em phasizing the fact. Three of the seven campaigns In which he led the flock in the National league ha hit' over .400. One of these years 1924 he hit .424. - The average star' sticker is mighty happy with a batting aver age of .24 points below that. If you hit .300 you're in the "charm ed circle." Horn&by's lowest aver age in those seven winning years was .370, the first time he copped the crown. . The first year he -missed 1926 found Catcher Hargrave of the Reds leading tire pack officially with the meager average of .353: In 1927 young Paul Waner ran off with the coveted honor with a .380 total. Hopping back into the title role in 1927, Hornsby turned in an average seven points higher than young Waner's. Hornsby's latest title comes to him in his 14th year as a major leaguer. And he gives no indica tion ot losing his batting eye. HS PANTHERS LEAD V. M. LEAGUE Y. M. C. A. League W. L. Pet.

These conduit sections are to be used in laying the telephone wires underground and doing away with poles in many parts of the city, it was explained. There is room in each conduit for nine cables. C. H. Carson, district plant chief of the telephone company, explained that not all of the nine sections will be needed at present, but the extra sections are there to provide for future expansion. Some of the sec tions are larger than others, on account of the larger wires in the long distance transmission system. The wires to be placed under ground first are principally long distance lines, and this is the res- son the conduit sections have been placed on North Cottage street. which is considered to be the most direct line out of town. The under ground conduits leading south will be laid on South Liberty street. Work on the north extension will bedone first, and will com mence eatly this week. This will permit the removal of the over head system on North Liberty street. The work will be com pleted ia the fall. The new system has been plan ned to connect with the new cen tral office of the company which Is to be built on State street be tween Cottage and Winter.
