HOVERS HORNSBY now the job he was expect- to net shortly after he was transferred from the New York Giants fa the Boston Uraves this winter. His appointment as manager of the Braves created no undue surprise in the baseball world.

It was a move on Judge Fuchs' part that seemed the obvious thing to do and this is uo slam at JacR" Slattery. Jack Slattery had lots of theory, so the story goes, but not enough practice, and that explains why llie Craves were losing a lot of ball games. Under Hornsby, one can expect plenty practical application and some theoretical application, but not enough of the latter to make the former forgotten. We can now sit back and watch the driving Mr. Hornsby get into action.

He drove jJie St. Louis Cards Into a world two years ago, and he drove the Giants, when he" was in charge last to one of its best winning streaks of the year. It might be well to remember that the Braves of today cannot compare with either the Cards of or the Giants of 1927, but it DISTRICT MKKTING OF EPWORTH LEAGUE AT IRKEPORT JUNE 15.17.

STOCKS A STATEMENT RELATING TO THE FUTURE OF THE CHRYSLER CORPORATION and DODGE BROTHERS, INC. The widespreadpublic interest in reccntevents affecting the Chrysler Corporation and Dodge deserves an authentic and offi- ciaJ statement and an assurance regarding the future of these two corporations. Subject to the approval of stockholders, Dodge Brothers, will be acquired by the Chrysler Corporation, the plan of amalgamation having been recommended by their respective boards of directors. Each of these great institutions will retain its identity, and will continue, as heretofore, to produce and market its own product in accordance with the high and progressive standards from which motor car buyers the world over have previously benefited.

Each will benefit from the consummation of a plan which unites such tremendous resources in material? manufacturing facilities, financial power and manufacturing genius. Dodge Brothers will continue to be Dodge Brothers, and Chrysler will be Chrysler. Their products be separate and distinct and will be continued in production without interruption. Their sales organizations will be unrelated except as they shall mutually share in the advantages of the consolidation. Both public and dealers may look forward to the greater benefits which the consolidation of such tremendous resources will and the men identified with these businesses may be assured of a stable and definite future, inspired by the progrcssivencss which has been responsible for this uniting of two great companies.

"CHRYSLER CORPORATION DODGE BROTHERS, INC New York, June Corporation was the only issuo to show any strength in early dealings on the stock market today, although the general list alter a lower opening, held fairly well and several recovered around the previous close. Trading was quiet. Radio gained two points to 193 and held around that figure, while Genera! Electric came back to Ihc previous close at and Allied Chemical rose to 168Vs. Manhattan Electrical Supply firmed up 'ractionally. General Motors, U.

S. Steel, American Can, New York Central and a long list of others were easier, steel touching a new low on Ihc movement at 140. Selling of the latter was based on the unexpectedly large decrease in unfilled tonnage reported after the close on Saturday. DcscribJjig the market, the Wall tract Journal's financial review today said. Bearish sentiment trading circles was increased by the sharp decline in the Saturday session and by publication after last week's slose of the U.

S. Steel's unfilled steel tonnage statement for May. This showed a decrease of 455,000 lonr, which considerably larger been anticipated. is also well to remember that the Hornsby 1928 is just the same as the one of 192(5. Hornsby wasn't satisfied with Dick Bun-US at first.

He grabbed George Sisler from the Senators, but that doesn't help matters itch if what all the wise ones say is true. The story goes that Hornsby is not satisfied with' many parts of his club. He likes. Bell at third and himself at second, but he another shortstop in place Doc Fan-ell. He aims to toy Cooney, at short, and bans lie will do.

Going on down the line, Hornsby would like to have another outfielder, perhaps two, and a Igood catcher. The latter especially. Here is Rogers Hornsby, whose appointment as manager of the liostou Braves may inject con- sidcrnblc speed into the outfit. He plans to make his pitchers go the full route of nine else go back to or Alaska. But the catching staff is not strong to get all possible power from the pitching staff, and that will interfere with Hornsby's plans.

We can expect better things of the Braves under Hornsby than what they showed under flattery. And there's this angle to the Braves had better perk up or the Red Sox, always the favorite of the two in Boston, will begin 'mors cusloiiifir-s away from tlic Braves one thing that won't suit either Hornsay or Judge Fuchs. The Red Sox are gaining popularity and Braves are losing what better reason for Hornsby's appointsaent could you ask?

King saidHhe "had at least half a bushel of flowers when taken into custody. The practice has been going on for the last two or three weeks, during which period many graves have, been robbed of flowers. Authorities, however, were not prone to place the entire blame on Mrs.

Musopska, contending tha' others may also be implicated. Burgess Harry Kiessler severely reprimanded the woman when she was brought into police court for trial, then warned her that if'the vandalism re-occurred and she was implicated, a heavy fine would be imposed.

Successful in business beyond need of worry, wealthy enough to retire, he nevertheless is giving his unusual talents to the world, working hard every day. The results of' his labors are well instead of sick people, happy folks instead of sad.

Dyar comes from a family that knew the secrets of health and had the ability to do things. His father was a practicing physician in Middle Tennessee when Ross came into this World fifty-seven years ago'. Thc father kept on practicing until he was eighty-five years old and went to his reward at 88. The Health Evangelist's mother 'came from Scotland, gave 15 children to the world, all of whom are living, and died at the age of 92. Judging from his appearance of youth, Ross Dyar will exceed the record of years of his family.
