Watkins Leaves Bench.

WV H. WATKINS, formerly
w owner and manager oftthe
w . ,.. Minneapolis club, has quit
active participation in baseball. r.. He
spent his last season on the bench in
Minneapolis. This year he started out
to manage his Indianapolis club, but
tired Of the job and summoned Charley
Carr to take his place.
"Watty' was a rare combination
a first class business man and thoroly
competent field manager. He has been
in the business 50 long that he has
probably handled more players than
any other man in baseball today.
Some men in managing team from
the bench can do SO in calm manner,
but "Watty' was not one Of these.
He was "in' the game just as much
as any player and he sat on the board
and swung with his men every time
they poked bat at thrown ball.
He chased every hit-in his mind
and folded it. When winning Watty
was as happy as drunken sailor. When
losing he could "crab" in style
that made the sweaters smoke. T.
On days when Minneapolis was los
ing "Watty' worked destruction thru
the water tank on the end of the
bench. If Fox or Oyler booted one,
Watty took drink. IF the opposing
batter pounded out a home run off a
Minneapolis pitcher Watty took an:
other drink. Every time the opponents
scored Watty took more water. On
