X of the diamond may keep Dr.
w. r, Presley in the game a
while longer, despite his announced
intentions a few weeks ago to hang
out his medical aingle in his native
town of Due West, S. c., just as soon
as he finished his term as inferno al
Jefferson Hospital, Roanoke.
After graduating from the College
of Physicians and Surgeons in At
Ianta a couple OF years or so ago,
the doctor determined to try his hand
at professional baseball preliminary
TO buckling down to his chosen call
ing.
He made good in a jiffy, and as
player manager of the Roanoke
Tigers in the Virginia League this
season he succeeded in landing his
team in second place.
Now. he is being urged to manage
the Richmond Colts next season. and
st looks as II the doctor will fall for
the offer which was made to him
Saturday following the close of the
season. In fact, he has practically
said that II he can obtain his release
from the Roanoke hospital early next
spring he will undertake the job.
Roanoke is also anxious to secure his
services again, but it appears that
financial allurements in these parts
are more attractive.
In addition to his managerial quail
files, Presley is a first baseman OF
no mean ability and is particularly
strong with the stick,
CTEvE GRIFFIN, who has managed
- Richmond the past two seasons
landing the club in third place on
both occasions, is slated for manager
of the Charleston, S. c., club next
year.
DRESENT Indications are that Par
l son Perryman, who springs from
a family of ball players down in
Georgia, will also wear Colt uniform
next season. John McGraw has re-
linquished all claims on him, it Is
understood. thus leaving Perryman
free to go where 10 oleases. He I'm
ished the past season with Roanoke
In fine form. He was with Richmond
last wear, and 1t was because OF MS
excellent twirling here that McGraw
got a string on him.
Perryman has finished his college
work AMI announces that he will win
ter in Atlanta. He expects to take
a ministerial course at Vanderbilt
later.

reported that both those clubs are

AIRY MATTHEW'S, well known
II throughout Southern balloon, is
receiving congratulations on all sides
for the way he lifted Newport News
Shipbuilders out of the pit into fifth
place.
When Matthews took charge of this
club after the season was getting
well under way, the team had nine
teen losses to it's credit, with not a
single game on the other side Of the
column. He will manage Newport
News again next season if he wants
the Job. Matthews work behind the
bat was particularly noteworthy.

are firm and but little change in yester-

. In the butter and egg market good busi-
ness continues to hold away and the quo

butter yesterday dropped Y cent, but
there is no lessenng in the demand and
supplies are adequate. Eggs are firm
with an upward tendency. The supplies
are in keeping with the demand.
In the grain market the demand is still
active and no change in quotations reg
istered yesterday. Hay quotations con-

is no stronger The demand is fairly good,
however, and it is not generally believed
that 1t will keep on the toboggan. Oats

supplies are fairly good and the demand
fair.
