tied so much enterprise as some OF
the leaders in the smaller leagues.
Newton Fisher. manager and catcher
Of the Nashville (Tenn.) nine that
won the first championship Of the
new Southern league, has laid plans
for next season, and expects 10 get
the pennant again. OF course, the
Little Rock club, which lost the pen
nant to Nashville, will be prepared 10
repeat the close contest Of 1901. AL
ready the Arkansas people have be-
gun reaching out for players.
Fisher Is unique in the list Of young
managers and players. Although he
plays in every game as catcher, he
has what his men call good head"
for business. With q practically
green team-many of them mere
youngsters-this young college grad
uate-he is but q years old--not only
piloted his club through hard and
fierce season in the Southern league,
but made money. He played prac-
tically the same team throughout the
season, adding two twirlers. Black
burn, whom he picked up after the
rival Little Rock team dropped him,
and George Sample. The latter
turned out to be the star twirler Of
the Southern league, officiating in 80
games and winning IS Of them.
Sample cost Fisher but $500, and the
leader of the team, knowing that
such good pitching would excite COM
ment among the big league managers,
has just closed the most advantageous
offer he could get for Sample. The
latter will be National Lacquer next
season, and Fisher will depend upon
Charlie Shields TO repeat Samples
work. There seems to be little
chance for anything but harmony and
prosperity in the Southern league
next season.
