Paddy may not be the best catcher in

He is in the game every minute, enc0Nr-

attention of rlle batter from his purpose

1t was he that helped a lot to make Rube

let go by two big league clubs, until
Paddy got hold Of him. In fact, Nor
gan was such a success with Livingston

IN Happenings 1Sportdom

and Manager Charley Doom dates back
to the assault of Umpire Finneran by
Sherwood Masee, for which Doom has
held Fosel responsible. 1t seems that
F'ogei took Maeec on JOY trip 10 Allan
,c CITY during the Elks' convention
Magee broke the training rules and had
not recovered when he broke into the
game the day lie hit the umpire. Though
Fogel is ut the head of the club and
should not attempt to interfere with his
manager. he has been Il constant menace
70 the best interest of the team. and those
familiar with cond tons are not blaming
Doom for the stand he has taken.
1t would be a ten strike for the tincn-
T-atT club if IT could secure Doom for Nc
Lean and $1,000, for il would not only
give the Reds one OF the best catchers in
the country, but the managerial prob
lem would be solved and there would be a
good chance for the team to become d
factor in the race. But it Is not apt to be
mp to FoGel TO make this deal. One
Charles Murphy viii first have to be con
suited, and as he could probably use
Doom on his Cub team, there is no,
much chance Of Cincinnati being uble tc
make any sort of a deal for him.
There are good reasons for this sudden
stampede on the part of certain Nationa
League lnasnates TO the Lynch faction
thus assuring the reelection Of the pres
ent head of the league. MagnateS Foge
and Murphy are the pair who opposed
Lynch. but because Of an error Foge
made in mailing some letters he placed d
strong weapon in Garry HERMANN
hands which undoubtedly has been useC
to get these insurgents in line for Lynch
Here is the story: In writing some of
fetal letters Foeel inadvertently placed a
confidential letter to Murphy at CHICAGO
in an envelope addressed to Hermann.
In this letter Fogel made it plain that
Murphy owns the Philadelphia club.
Hermann. of course, read the letter and
then returned il TO Foeel with the naive
inquiry whether 1t was intended for him
or not. Rather than have the facts CON
Ia med in the letter become public prop
erty. Murphy, Fogel and E,bhets have
come ont for Lynch. thus hoping to ST.
lence Hermann. who is in possession of
some rather damaging facts.
Though Bobby Wallace's ST Louis team
finished last IN the race, the fact that
the Browns defeated the Cardinals in the
post-season series will give Wallace an
other chance to show managerial ability.
The press Of st. Louis is strong for Wal
lace 1t is insisted that he should have
another trial. 1t stands to reason that
with the team he had at his command lit
| tie could be expected of Wallace. No
man could have made winner out of
| that bunch. and Wallace did a. well a.
! couid any manager In the world.
