H ' A CCOUDING to tho latest baseball rumor, which U about nil rc fan get
i-
these days, the St. Lose Cards will have n new manager next season.
?-.
r
I?
C"
IThls rumor, which hns been bobbing up and down since the league meeting In
New York last month, cannot be verified, nobody will discuss the subject and
nobody seems to know anything about it. All of which makes it tho healthiest
little rumor you ever saw.
Branch Itickoy, it is said, is planning to step out of the job ns mauager
'of, the Cards and devote his entire time to presiding over the affairs financial
anil otherwise of the club. That is n wis-e move, if true, because a president
.seldom gets fired because of n bum ball club which lias a habit of finishing
many leagues under the league. Therefore a new manager must be procured,
Od this gives the rumor a chance to horn in ngaiu.
. Hugo Rczdck, late of the l'irates and coach of the champion I'cnu State
football team, is supposed to bo the bloke who will get tho job. Rickey always
iked his work and is said to be seriously considering the husky tutor. Hugo
wore than made good with Pittsburgh, taking charge of the club when it was
demoralized and all shot to pieces, bringing order out of chaos, weeding out
the undesirables and finishing in the first division the last two years. If he
can do that with Pittsburgh lie certainly can repeat in St. Louis that is, if
fee is offered the job.
T
Bezdck is one of the marvels of big league baseball. He entered the fast
fcst as manager without any previous experience nny place, and in two and a
bait years made himself a high-class pilot. He studied the game from all
fcnglc3, took advice from the older men and had more success with the Pirates
than any manager since Fred Clark stepped out. He was just beginning to
Und himself when Barney Dreyfuss decided to give George Gibson n chance.
Hugo is not through with baseball by any means. He has' only started,
f fend will be on the job for a long time. He is a tireless worker and always
I ferts results. Last year on the training trip he was playing manager, business
..Jnanngcr, treasurer, trainer and baggage man, making good in every job.
IPLM
, HPHE club almost made expense) down South, ichich teas doing tccll
1
under the circumstances.
Cards Have Plenty of Good Material
TN ST. LOUIS. Bezdck would step into a very t,ood ball club and the chances
" ore he would have it up in the running. He did it in Pittsburgh, so why
not some place else? The Cards had a good club last jcar and it has not been
"weakened during the winter. Mollwitz plajs a good game at first and Johnny
Lavnn is a classy shortstop. Milton Stock and Rogers Horusby can decide
between themselves about the second and third base jobs, and when that infield
jets together it is a formidable aggregation, both on the defense and the
Rttack. McIIcnry, Smith and llcatlicotc arc nifty outfielders.
Fcrdic Schupp was going good at the cud of Inst season and probably will
have a good year. AVhcn right, Fcrdic is n great twirlcr, nnd it looks as if
he has recovered his 3017 form. Tuero and May also arc classy mouudsmen.
Tho catching department, however, is weak, due to the trades which sent
Gonzales and Snyder to the Giants. Dilhoefcr seems to be the best receiver,
Bnd he lias a lot to learn.
The Cards will train in Brownsville. Tex., and will go through r. strenu
Itrtjs prc-scason -series with our A'h before lcaung for the North. Seventeen
james will be plajcd, ten being scheduled near Houston,, Fort Worth and
IWichlta Falls.

' Barney Drcyfnss Hard to Please
niHET icll many stories about Barney Dreyfuss and how hard t is to please
1" him. Last year, after Cincinnati had mopped up the Kast and won a lot
ef ball games, the Beds and Pirates were scheduled to meet in I'ittsbrugh on
Friday. Barney wanted to win the first game, because the irtor.v would at
tract a big Saturday crowd.
The game was won. Cincinnati's winning streak was broken and the next
morning Dreyfuss was on the job again.
"I hope we win today," he said, "because we play in Cincinnati tomorrow,
fend you know how popular thoe Sunday games are. We would have a big
crowd."
A pitcher worked out of turn that afternoon and the Reds .suffered an
other defeat. That made tuo in a row, with the third game to bo played in
Cincinnati. The players were all keyed up. third place was in sight and they
made up their minds to win the next game.
Pittsburgh took the lead at tho start and in the sixth inning the score
Vras 3 to 1. Barbarc made an error in that frame and the Beds scored one
run. After that Bezdek's meu were on their toes and won the game, which
made three in a row.
.Naturally, the plajers were happy and went to the railroad with their
chests fcticking out. Taking three in n row from Cincinnati at that stage of
the iscason was going some and the boys warmly congratulated each other.

"' lined up to hear his cheery greeting and accept his thanks for
starting a u-inniny at real;. They almost collapsed, hoiccvcr, when
Harney said:
"You played rotten baseball today. Cincinnati never should have
scored tl)al run!"
Peace Talk Starts When Navin Visits A'eiv York
TT; NOW looks as if there would be something doing in the American League

This is the closing week of the first
naif pennant race of the Eastern Bas
ketball League and a little excitement,
not looked for a week ago. has been
injected into Jhe situation. While Cam
den has the pennant all sewed up
there is n merry battle on for the posi
tion of runner-up. Germantown appear
ed asiirc winner, but the showing of De
Neri in the last two weeks was un
expected and they still have n chance
to defeat the suburbanites.
The Benuis-Poth combination is slat
od to appear at Moo-c Hall tonight nnd
tackle the reconstructed Phils. The
line-up will be no different for the
current week, at least, but the club
is under new ownership and negotia
tions are under way which would place
Joe Togarty in charge
Joe is known for his ability in this
line, and while Do Neri will lose a val
uable man, it is not considered likely
that Manager Myers will staud in his
wn. Just what rhnnges will lake
place in the personnel of the team is
difficult to say, but there are three or
four clubs that plan ladical ones iu
the next half.
lie Neri May Moc
And from all accounts this city will
be minus one of its three clubs if every
thing goes as planned, for the De Neri
management is making strenuous ef
forts to transfer its franchise to another
city, and if the deal is consummated
other changes in the local rauks will
occur.
In tonight's game nt Moose Hall a
new center will be hocn in the German -town
line-up in the person of Jester, n
local (ierninntown product, who nt one
time was captain of Penn Stntc. and
was al.-o a member of the ambulance
corps at Alleiilown.
U is likely Trenton will ask for the
reinstatement of Doc Nemnaii for the
second half, and Grrinaiilown will make
au appeal for the reinstatement of Mec
hnn. The latter jumps for Scrantou,
and they are in the midst of a battle
with Nnutieokc for the pennant. In
order to win. Nnutieokc has signed
Campbell, of Camden.

A l'TKIt a man climbs over the heads

ago become not only important, but
interesting.
Just n step le's than nineteen years
ago, a rookie broke into the big league
as n right lieldcr with the Boston Na
tionals. Tho dispatches sent out from
Iteiintnnn that night carried no mcii-
i tioii of this fact. Nobod) cared.
I That rookie was Patrick J. Moran.
who now has two cood-M7.ed feet well
planted on baseball's pinnacle. Most
ooryone will tell ou that the boss of
the world's champion Ileds was a
catcher in his day. lie was, hut lie
broke in as n right fielder.
At the time Pat Moran horned his
way into the big show, the American
League was raiding the clubs in the
parent circuit and talent was beginning
to get scarce. Few players enjoyed the
game as bench-spectatoi. l?.trn cat
chers und pitchers tilled in the outfield.
Kor this reason Ihe Fitchburg tighter
plajed right field. He made n hit in
that firt game, n single , and had one
put out. Then he got his chance be
hind the plate and with the indomit
able spirit of a champion lie made good
and stayed there.
Moran remained with the Boston Muii
until 1005 when he weut with Front"
Chance's famous t'ubs. He left the
Cubs for tho Phillies in 11)12.
Pat never was a star ns u catcher,
but he gathered untold baseball knowl

Golf Links Arc Snoivbonnd
or Frozen, but Why Worry?
WOOD alcohol, Bryan for Presi
dent, communication with de
parted spirits and things, are all
right in their place, but the average
golfer doesn't fret much about these
minor events.
As usual, it's a bleak, dreary win
ter, and the renson is that the golf
links are all frozen up, clotted with
snow, as they say, and the liuksmen
are victims of the weather.
But why worry?
Tomorrow, by the statistics at
hand, the Evenino Punr.io LEDOErt
will start n nineteenth hole series
where golfers can sit in and fan on
all the shots In the bag with the
best players.
There will be three articles a week
by SANDY McNIULICK, ot this
newspaper, one of the best golf
writers in the country.' Star players,

how they make their favorito phots,
and each article is illustrated with

THE two greatest football players wo vcr saw for all-around ability and

A WARDING any one man the honor of being The Greatest ot all time nt

Each generation likes to crown its own idol as king.
Jn baseball, King Kelly stood unchallenged for a great many years. Thtn
Wagner was handed the t,ccptcr by u cheering multitude. Aud as Wagner'
faded out the crown was passed along to Cobb.
Each in turn has been lubelcd The Greatest. The records show that Cobh

known nn equal. But there was iilso Wagner's brillinut defensive play to be"
considered, with his ability to bat nbovc .oUO for sixteen or seventeen con
