Farrell Is in No
Hurry to Decide
On NeW MANAGER

Since the announcement that Harry
Wolverton would not manage the High
lahders next year, owner Frank Farrell
has been deluged with suggestions as to
who should bit his successor. Most
prominently mentioned have been Frank
Chance and Harry Davis. ex.managar
OF Cleveland. Farrell Is unmoved by
the suggestions however. and declares
he VIII take his time. lie gave out the
following statement:
Il have never met Frank Chance
under any circumstances. and | have
not. directly or indirectly, offered to
engage him at $500 per year for a
term OF Ave years to manage the New
York team. Mr.. Chance Is the property
OF the Chicago National League team,
and II would be violation of the rules
of organized baseball for me to make
him any sort Of a proposition or to ne
gotate with him In any way.
The same thing virtually applies 10
Harry Davis. The report has been
spread that I was negotiating with
Davis. ! have not had IA word. directly
or indirectly. with the ex-Cleveland
manager and have made him no offer OF
any kind. have not seen or heard
from Davis since he was here with the

Dahlen Signed by Ebbets
TO Manage Dodgers for
Fourth Consecutive Year

lor the purpose of Informing you that
have signed Bill Dahlen as manager
or the Brooklyn Club for next season.
After having a talk with the other
stockholders Of the club we all decided
that we would give Dahlen another
chance as manager OF the team. We
feel that he has built up the team from
the bottom, and that to-day the club Is
iar stronger than at any time since he
was manager. l am ready to spend all
the money for players that Dahlen de-
mands, and l feel confident that the
brooklyn Club OF 1913 will make a much
better showing than 1t has In many
years"
How long does Dahlen's contract call
fcr?" Ebbets was asked.
"One year." he replied.

holders talked over all the managers,
and we finally came TO the conclusion
that Dahlen fills the bill"

where the team will train" was the
next question put to President Ebbets
Yes, that win be up to him, and
think Dahlen Is going to start South
next month TO look over suitable
place FOR the team to go through Its
spring training stunt. Some place In
Georgia will most likely be selected, as
the grounds down there are good and

MS club In last place.
Wolverton was more unfortunate than
any OF the deposed managers in that he
iost most OF his good players through
accident early In the season. Can YOU
imagine what would have happened to
the Red Sox II their famous outfield
had been out half Of the season?
WolVERToN WAS LOOKING TO.
WARD NEXT YEAR.
The Highlanders lost the services of
Cree. Wolter and Chase at the same
time. That is enough to put any club
out OF the race. Seeing that he was
beaten. Wolverton set about building I'D
a team for next year. His judgment
may have been right. but the result was
SO disastrous that he had TO retire. There
Is no doubt that Wolverton made many
mistakes In the handling of his pitchers.
but If he had been sure OF another years
work he might have brought the public
around to his way OF thinking.
In getting rid of Frank Chance II IA
generally believed that Charley Murphy

Subject Again Brings Up
Question Among Fans as
to Whether Managers

Players Make the Man.
ayers Of Winning Teams.

VIII depose q manager who has won him
rour championships and a fortune and
replacing him with an erratic fellow like
f'vers, who has no experience whatever
as a leader.
The release Of Johnny King was
not due 30 much to his lack Of ability
as to the chance of getting a recoC-
nized leader like Stallings to take
charge. Killing went into ONCE with
niue nope and came out in the same
nx. Nothing much was expected of tn /.
Braves and there can be little disap-
pointment
HANK O'Day's downfall was due to
his lack OF executive ability. He had
oeen In the office OF umpire so long
that he did not understand the rather
subtle art of handling a lot of young
ieiiows who have different tempera.
ments The players did not like him on
account or severe discipline and could
not get their heart In their work after
the first few weeks. At least. that :.
what some OF them say.
II THEY HAD GOOD TEAMS TO
START WITH.
Another thing that worked ara,n.,
ODay was that he managed entirely
from the bench. Connie Mack is the
only man who has ever been able To get
away with that. The players, as a rule.
like TO see their leader on the Goa chIng
line In uniform. They also like a plrit
or fun on the bench. That Is a pla,e
where strict discipline does not always
GO In other words there was no feeling
Of comradeship.
Getting back TO the original subject
II any one of these deposed managers
had been lucky enough to have a great
team behind him he would have been
proclaimed wonderful leader.
After all It may be that the PLAYERS
make successful team as often as do
managers.
