Want to be a big league manager?
Then be a catcher.
This does not mean that all managers
in the big leagues were catchers. But
these same men seem to be getting a
monopoly on managerial berths in the
major leagues. Seven of + sixteen men
who will guide the major clubs in 1912
crouched behind the bat some time in
their career on the diamond.
The septet are: Mack, of the Ath-
letics; Doom, of the Phillies; Bresna-

of the Cleveland Maps; Chance, Of the
Chicago Cubs; Stahl, of the Red Sox,
and King of the Boston Braves. Three,
however, changed their berth to first
