COLORFUL RIVALRY
The report says the World Series has not brought together a rivalry so colorful as that between Babe Ruth and Rogers Hornsby since 1909, when Hans Wagner and Ty Cobb matched their playing skill.
NEW YORK, Sept. 30.—-Not since 1909, when Hans Wagner and Ty Cobb matched their playing skill, has the World Series brought together rivalry so colorful as that between Babe Ruth and Rogers Hornsby.
It will be Hornsby's first turn in the baseball classic.
Ruth will be participating in his seventh performance in the classic.
Baseball Commissioner Landis, upon his arrival here today, said he was suffering from his annual "temporary popularity." Friends whom he had not seen for 50 years were renewing acquaintances in an effort to obtain passes.
