STATEN SURE He
HAS ARRANGED
GOOD CARD

When the boxing lid is cracked off
again for the season tomorrow night
at Harry Staten's new Olympic club,
the veteran Atlanta promoter believes
he has a card arranged that will give
the glove game an impetus in the city
that will flourish until summer wealth
er returns. The headline attraction
will be Terry Mitchell against Barney
Ford.
Both of these fellows are Eastern
welters and the matchmaker's reports
are that they are both fast. willing
workers.
Il am sure that these boys will scrap
and not stall" says Staten. They have
both written that they are mighty anX-
ious to get start in the South, and |
have assured them that a good show
ing in Atlanta will not only mean more
bouts right here, but in Chattanooga.

Chance Or Bresnahan May Lead Brooklyn Team
Charley Ebbets Wants One of Them for Manager

he would have to spend to secure
either Bresnahan or Chance. And
believe me, Ebbets has shown him
self such a game fellow in building
the new Ebbets field in the face Of
obstacles that would appall a less
plucky club owner, will not finish
at any cost to secure the manager
that is virtually certain to assure
him and his club both artistic and
financial success.
Without wishing to detract from
the ability of the managers the
Brooklyn club has had since Ned
Hanlon, still the fact remains that
the Superbas have not been a sue
cess under the managers the team
has had since, and many of the
annual failures have been due or
charged, anyhow, against the late
managers.
There is no doubt that the Brook
lyn club has had as strong a pitch
ing staff and certain individual
players that have been the bright
particular stars of the National
league. But lack of team work and
weakness in several positions have
held the team down outrageously
low compared with the splendid
nucleus the club had at the start
of many seasons.
The natural conclusion to arrive
at. therefore, Is that a manager
with the fighting qualities, ability
and winning records that both
Bresnahan and Chance have would
surely make the Superbas as they
stand today first division club
and probably contenders for the
championship.
Cubs and Cardinals at Loss.
But where will the Cubs and
Cardinals land when they lose the
leadership of their managers?

NEW YORK. Oct. 2S.-With
" Frank Chance and Roger
Bresnahan on the manage
rial market, as now seems proba-
Bile. there appears to be a most
lovely chance for those owners of
the National league clubs who have
not fixed themselves for astute and
most valuable leaders of teams to
take advantage of the great oppor-
tunity presented, by terrifying
themselves with the best manage
rial talent in the business.
Greater New York baseball fans
are more interested right now on
what decision President Ebbets, of
the Brooklyn club will make in
his choice for manager Of the Su-
perbas than what other clubs will
do. The Giants are, of course, we'll
fixed with McGraw as leader, and
he will probably be fixture as
such just so long as he himself is
agreeable.
Ebbets Is Negotiating.
| have. it on good authority that
the genial owner of the club across
the bridge. after whom the Super
bas' new home Is named has al
ready entered into negotiations
with both Chance and Bresnahan
If he secures either he can an
nounce a new holiday, because all
Brooklyn will applaud. Yes. all the
fans over there in that burg will
go further-they will get up on
their tiptoes and yell poems of joy.
The engagement Of Chance or
Bresnahan would put new life into
baseball i'm Brooklyn, and be a most
fitting climax to the grand opening
OF Ebbets' field that is sure to take
place next spring And if Roger
Bresnahan is secured as manager
OF the Superbas, | make the sug-
gestion now that March II, St. Pat
rick's day, he announced as the
date of the opening ceremonies.
