not be crowded into the ferrymoat,

JOHN EvERS MAY BE
MANAGER SOME DAY

NEW YORK, September 4.-When John
Evers gets through being player he may
be a manager. Perhaps he may be a
player and a manager. too.
Wherever base ball men get together
the subject of Evers' managerial posi-
bilities usually is discussed when the
ability of players to act as the playing
directors for big teams is talked about.
Evers knows how to play base ball be-
cause he is a keen observer and student
Of the sport and those who play it.
Frank Selee was the manager of the
Chicago team when Evers first entered
the big league as a player.
There wasn't much physically of the
second baseman in those days. There
ism: a great deal of him now, but he has
grown some. When the base ball season
is over and he has time to take little
rest he gathers flesh and he might almost
pass, for heavier man than he is
About the first time that Evers came to
New York Seee was talking one AFTER
noon about the future of his team chi
cago wasn't winning championships in
those days although little by little the
manager of the club was building the or
ganization which has since made such
fine record in base ball.
I've got a second baseman," said he,
"who is going to be one of the greatest
players on the field one of these days"
who Is he?"
johnny Evers.' was the reply.
What, that little cadaverous-looking
chap, who has been out in the field for
Chicago once or twice. said base ball
critic who happened to be in New York
at the time.
You can call him little and cadaver-
Gus and whatever else you may think he
looks like" said Selee, because just now
he is not very well and not in the best of
condition to play, but when he is right he
will develop into one of the stars of the
National League. He knows base ball
about as thoroughly. for a youngster, as
any boy whom l have found for a long
time. He will improve steadily. A year
will be needed before he will be able to
show what he can do as a fielder, and
perhaps two years before he will be able
to prove his best skill as batter. Yet
there is no more doubt about his future
than there is about the past of some of
the big men of the national game
Frank Selee is dead. His ability as a
manager always was in evidence. but if
any1 hing were needed to establish 1t his
prediction as to the future of the second
baseman of the Chicago club would be
sufficient.
Evers has done all that Selee claimed
he would More than that, base ball men
are now beginning to look forward to his
future as manager If the opportunity
ever arrives where he will be able TO
handle the affairs of a team.
