BUSY WINTER FOR

Fight likely Again Over

The schedule Of the National Lea

to furnish some decidedly warm con-
tention when It's length comes up for
discussion during the winter months.
with Ebbets and friends announcing
that they would make another fight
for the 16S-game season, It was ex-
pected that the gathering of the Ma
tional magnates would be anything
but quiet place, but with the state
ment from Barney" Dreyfus that he
was going to champion the 140-game
season II is evident things will be
some hot. The 154-game schedule Is
not a bad one, If not drawn out for
several weeks for mere spite work, as
is the case this season. The Eastern
League played 154 games this year,
started after the majors and finished
several weeks before the time set for
the closing OF the parent major body,
and there was not an overabundance
Of double-headers at that. With talk
of ousting Lynch and gossip about the
third major body, verify 1t looketh
like a busy winter.

EVERS' MISHAP
REGRETTED BY FANS

II the announcement that Evers has
injured his ankle to such an extent
that he will not be able to participate
in the worlds series proves correct,
It will be sincerely regretted by all
thoroughbred followers of the game.
The thousands of Athletic adherents
do not want their team to win against
a crippled organization. and Evers has
always been considered a great part
of the bone and sinew of the Cub ma
chine. He is undoubtedly a wonderful
player, and If the announcement
proves true his loss will be keenly
felt. There have been occasions
where a substitute player has been
the hero, and Zimmerman may make
history repeat itself in this direction.
! Should the Cubs be beaten with Evers
out of the lineup. it will offer the
Windy City followers the chance 70
cry, "It wouldn't have happened II
Evers had been in the game"

NEW YORK. oct. 4.-As was ex-
pected, Hal Chase, the most spectac-
ular first baseman in the country,
has been made manager of the New
York Americans for next season. II
has been known for some time past
that Chase and Manager George Stall
lings have been at bitter odds, and
It was up to the management Of the
Highlanders to choose between the
pair. The feud between Stallings and
Chase came to a head in Chicago the
other day, when the two men nearly
came 10 blows in the bus on the way
TO the hotel from the ball park For
the last two years Chase has had the
managerial bug I'm his bonnet, and
being the pet of his employer and
the grand stand managers, a change
in the leadership of the Highlander
was expected. How Chase will far,
as a manager of a major league team
is problematical. He is the creates
first baseman In the country to-da,
but many times he has sacrificed tear

Crawford and Merkle May Become Regular FirSt-baSemen in the Junior an
Senior Leagues ReSpeCdvdy--A ddie Joss and Overall Aim to Be
Better Than Ever to Collect the Bonus Money Offered Them.

Crawford, it is said, will be given a
chance to show his ability as a first
sacker If Manager Jennings succeeds in
developing a good outfielder out of some
of the recruits he has dug up. Craw-
ford showed class as a ~first-sacker last
season, and he is a valuable man be-
cause of his heavy hitting. AS an out
fielder he is one of the best in the bust
ness, but it is easier to secure a man
to fill a position in the garden than IT
is to develop a first baseman. The
other player, Merkle, has been kept on
the bench most of the time by Manager
McGraw. but Tenney, according to the
opinions of most critics, has seen his
best days, and with the knowledge of
the game he has picked up while with
McGraw Merkle ought to be able to
hold down the putout station without
any difficulty.
Chicago scribes are touting Orval
Overall to have one of the most success
full years of his career as a slab artist
with the Chicago Cubs during the COM
ing season. Overall pitched excellent
ball as usual last season, and has beer
one of the mainstays of the Chance
crew for several years. He was one Of

game, and is popular in every city IN

son overall won twenty games and lost
eleven for an average of .645. He
pitched nine shutout contests and
truck out 205 men. He is ono of the
