Clarence Rowland of Peoria Club Is
Man Sprung on the Chicago Pans
—Considered Best of Minor League
Pilots
Chicago, Dec. IS.—To the complete
surprise of players, press and public,
Clarence Henry Rowland, last year
pilot in a Class B circuit, yesterday
was named manager of the Chicago
American League club, conceded to bo
11 pennant contender iu 1915.• Many
Chicago baseball followers had never
heard of Rowland, but 111 professional
baseball circles he was well know as
a successful manager of mino* league
cJli'bs.
The new leader left *he ranks of
players for his first manager's position
at Aberdeen, Wo.vii., in 190 S. Thence
he went to .Jacksonville, Fla., and then
'turned too Dubuque, la., where lie
was part owner and manager of the
.Dubuque Three I lveugue club. Last
season he managed the Peoria team in
the Three I League, taking it from last
place to second.
Rowland will assume his new duties
soon. His arrival will be the signal for
the retirement of James .1. Callahan,
who has led the Chicago Americans
t'hree seasons. Callahan will be appoint
ed to some position connected with the
business affairs of the cluib, it was
announced, with the idea that eventu
ally he will be able to shoulder sonic
of the duties now falling to Owner
'omiskey. The disposition of "Kid"
Cleason, coach and adviser of Gall a
linn, was not given out, but it was

OH. KLUGH, tke well-kauna specialist
rumored he might be appointed man
ager of the Now York Americans.
The shift in managomenit with the
appointment of Eddie' Collins as ca.p
tain, in place of Weaver, indicates a
change in the field policy of the White
Sox.
Rowland was Iwrn in Plattesville,
W is., and is 33 years old. His contract
as Sox manager is for one year, and
the salary was not announced.
Rowland's selection came as n sur
prise to Chicago fans, many of whom
expected Eddie Collins to be appoint -
ed to the place.
Rowland is a manager of the Hugh
Jennings type, according to President
Al Tearnev, of the Three 1 League.
"I consider him the best of minor
league managers," said Tearnev. "lie
never quits and is one of those leaders
who is out on the eoachimg line cheer
ing on his men even when thev are ten
runs behind.
"I was responsible for his assum
ing the management of the Peoria club
which he brought up to second place,
finishing only a game an a half behind
first., though in 1913 the team was a
tau-ender. Peoria fans, as well as the
league, will be sorry to lose him."

WILININCTQN WANTS A CLUB
Prominent Baseball Man in Chicken
town Seas Bright Prospect
for Baseball
Down in Wilmington baseball talk is
picking uip since the meeting of the
Tri-State in New York City.
One of the stnudbys in the game there
in recent years had the following to
say of the prospects in Chickent6wn:
"The chance was never butter. I
know positively tha»t if a consicentious,
honest and hard working man, who
knows baseball players, takes hold of
the situation here he can in a very
short period raise $1,500 in cash. He
can get five men as helpmates—not
'directors,' as thetv have been called—
who will assist him to the last ditch.
''l am sure that at least two big
league cilubs are anxious to put theii
surplus players here if Wilmington will
pay half the salary. Even if each man
got S2OO a month, that would, with 14
players, require but $1,400 a month
from Wilmington. And my experience
has taught me that Wilmington can
make money with a first division team
with only a $1,500 salary drain.
■ "We can get into the league. That
I know. The grounds are easily ob
tainable, of that T am sure. ' There is
plenty of managerial timber floating
about, too, so the really first step tfliat
should be taken, in my opinion, is the
effort to interest a big league club di
retly with Wilmington and make the
arrangements for players."

Weight After Meals
There is, or iwed to be, an idea that
one weighs las* after a meal than be

always a definite increase of weight
after a meal, and with most people it
is curiously uniform. Art.or an average
dinner washed down with the average
amount of lilt id—three-uarters of a
pint—the average man will invariably
find that he weighs two pounds more
