Johnny Evers is looking out for a
trade for Heinie Zimmerman. A year
ago he wouldn't give his star third
baseman for any player in either
league, so Johnny said. And he said
more nice things about Zimmerman a
year ago. He said Heinie was his
whole bali club and he told the story
to nearly everybody at the New York
six-day race. That was about year
ago. Since the times have changed.
Evers has had season as manager
of the Chicago Cubs to deal with ball
players. Johnny, so he says, never
knew that the men of the diamond
were so bad. He knew he had O few
peculiarities himself. but he felt as IL
he could tame the rawlings OF others.
He did well at that rs a manager
much better than /, among @ great
many others. expected he would.
About the only men he wRs unable to
handle were Zimmerman and Bres-
nahan--two tartars. The others he
got by with, and, all In all, had a
pretty good year. finishing third with
the Cubs. Rid Of the two belligerents,
Zimmerman and Bresnahan, Evers
should do even better next season
Still he is liking crab" and you never
can tell just how he'll turn out.
