Bill Carrigan Said to lie Next Red Sox Manager
OW wo como to UI1I Carrigan, who piloted tho Kcd Sox to tho world's
championship In 1U1S. lllll rated himself out of baseball List enr and
turned a deaf car to offers of 23,000 or more In cumn back to Ills old Job.
Ho wanted to run his banking business In I.cwlston, Me., and Ue-ch.tll was
furthest from his thoughts. Things aro different now, hueer, as .lack
Barry, his successor, Is in Hi- navy and will not be glM'ii a furlough to
manago-tho club. That means Hairy l'razco must (111 tho acancy, and
Carrigan Is tho logical man. In fact, lllll has stated that ho would enter
laln a proposition to tako over tho Job, but l'razco Is not talking for publi
cation. If ho Is negotiating with Cairigan it Is a deep bcciet.
Thero Is ono thing certain, however, and that is lllll will bo tho real
boss If ho signs a contract for 101S. Ho does not caro to bo annnjed
throughout tho season by directors and tho club owner. Ilo wants to work
things out In his own sweet way and will stand or fall on his reputation.
Carrigan quit tho game after tho world t-eile.s In 1910 becauso Joo I.annln,
president of tho Sox, was on his neck most of tho time. I.annln was too
much of; a fan and was always making suggestions which Intcifcrcd with
him. President Joo meant well, but ho soon got on his manager's nerves
and this had much to do with Carrlgan's decision to retire.
If tho old pilot comes back to lead the Itcd Sox ho prooably will Join
th bench managers. Ho has placd long enough nnd tho joys of training
do not appeal to him. Anyway, ho has Wally Schang and four other back
tops to call upon and ho will not bo needed ns a playci.

Deals Becker May Get Some More Tryouls
1HU Cubs aro reliably reported handing out tho life-line to Heals Becker,
ono of tho richest products of tho gamo since he was grabbed out of
; tho Southern League In 1900 by Cincinnati. Tho walloping demon, whoso
war club assisted tho Thllllcs so materially In their 1915 pennant diic,
f Jed the American Association last season, nnd Vred Mitchell Is reported
i lot tho opinion that Inasmuch as tho clouting ono always could clout ho
would bo a good bolster to his offensive tho coming year.
j J Becker has had ns varied a career in tho big leagues as has Buck
;' Merzog, nnd ho ought to have tho contldcnco of familiarity with his sur
roundings If ho docs come back, for ho has played twlco with Cincinnati
land one tlmo each with tho Braes, tho Giants nnd tho Phils.
f I Wceghman Is pennant hunting this year, and tho fact that Becker got
'In on two world's series purses may have something to do with his reported
V chance to Join the Porktown outfit.
