John L. Sullivan worked in a tin

Tom Hyer, first American heavy

Jsm Mace was a fiddler at English

Jim Jeffries was a boilermaker.

Miller Higgins, the new manager
Of the st. Louis Cardinals, has an
Aounced that he will warm no benches
next season. He proposes to take an
active part at the game, and will be
found at second base. He believes
he's a better man at this job than
any man on his list, and prefers to
play the part rather than do any ex-
p~erimenting.
Huggins's proposed course has not
often beer taken by players who have
been elevated to the managerial job.
Last season Stovall and Joe Birming-
ham were placed in charge of the st.
Louis Browns and Cleveland Maps,
respectively, and though both are at
their prime, neither played regularly
from that out. though Stovalls con-
stant work on the diamond would
have been a great help to his team.
