BOY.

The manager is much maligned
because the whole. responsibility
rests upon his shoulders, no matter
how much they slope. 1t is his
task to bring his team before a
sea of strange faces without blow
ing up like one of those dirigible
balloons. And, even if he sue
ceeds, there are some who will
anvil and say he should have sue
aeded differently.
1t is the habit of the manager
have his employees gather-round-
im-littlechildren and give heed
While he gives them good instruc-
tons. Quite frequently and oft he
must read to them from the
"Child's History of Base Ball. and
tell them that one cannot take
strong drink and manifest health
and vigor, nor possess prime bat
ting optic if one has been out after
curfew the night before. Some
times players pout, even when ad-
monished in pleasant way. He
is criticised for preaching up nur-
sery notions by smart athletes who
should rather give up certain per-
nicious habitudes and be content
to dissipate only in the cloying pop
corn fritter. How true this Is.
When procuring youthful ad-
juncts to his staff he must be very
careful-oh, yes, even more so
than mule trader-to see that he
IS not duped He must assay their
craniums to see what per cent runs
to 24-carat ivory. He must guard
and guide them every hour, and
even tuck them away after a hurdy
gurdy while he is porting over
household expenses.
Even when they are on the field
of battle, he must impress upon
them, with constant assiduity. that
some games are important and
'twere just as well to win them as
fling them away In a free-handed
manner. He must show them to

A1lans for the formation of a
racing circuit, to include the big
gest circuit in the country between
New York on the east and Los
Angeles in the west, ARE now be-
ing made by automobile manufac-
turers, and before next spring a
grand circuit. similar in many de-
tails to the grand circuit which
controls harness horse racing in
this country, will have been
formed, and the racers started on
their first whirl against records,
probably at the Indianapolis
Speedway.
The grand circuit idea origi-
mated with f. A. Morross. who
has just resigned as director of
contests at the Indianapolis tracks,
and who has interested the
manufacturers and the racing
drivers in his scheme. 1t calls
for the building of several new
motordomes and regularly organ

of the racing board of the Ameri-
can Automobile association.
