telegraphed East to the effect that Hal
Chase. not George Stallings, was man

diseension in my team. Stallings Is the
manager and Chase the captain ana
the men work together and IN perfect
harmony. Once the game Is started
Stallings attends to his duties on the
bench and Chase exercises Whatever
supervision is necessary over the play

suits Stallings as captain. Both men
