Had a Change of Heart
BY the time he had almost finished
his studies at Holy Cross, however.
Carrigan himself had experienced Il
change of heart relative to entering
baseball as profession, and the base
ball world, and particularly Boston,

sequence.
Besieged with offers to join profess
sional teams. Carrigan steadfastly re-
ported that Fred Lake. then manag-
ing the Lowell New England Leasne
team, had signed him for his team and
that Carrigan would report at the
conclusion of his college term. This
rumor carrigan vehemently denied and
reported to the college authorities that
he had no intention OF becoming n
professional ball player.
Carrigan was great college player

therefore, when in view of his contin

join other big league teams, he signed
a contract with the Boston American
League team, and reported for duty
at the completion of his college course.
Just how Carrigan was made TO
change his mind. or what pressure was
brought to bear has long since been
forgotten il indeed those details We're
ever made public. However, Carrigan
joined the ranks of the Boston team

William F. Carrigan, the new mana
ger of the Red Sox, is essentially II
product of New England, and his ele
walton to the managerial berth is a
worthy tribute To a player who has
long been recognized as one of the
most brainy and sagacious in the ranks
of professional ball players.
"Bilf' Carrigan is a native of Maine.
He was born in Lewiston, Oct. p,
1888: learned the rudiments of the
game in the stubble fields about his
native city; advanced to greater
degree of proficiency while Il member
of the Lewiston High school team, Of
which he was captain. and then enter
ed Holy Cross College at Worcester.
There Carrigan shone first as foot
ball player. He was aggressive. strong
and determined. For two years he
played football at tackle, but he final
'ly had to quit because of an injury
received in stubbornly contested
game.
That injury, sustained during his
Sophomore year, was really the start
ing of Carrgan's brilliant baseball
4,
than the average country lad as a ball
player, it was not until his Junior
year at Holy Cross that he devoted
himself entirely To baseball. although
he had played in his first two years.
Because nature endowed him with a
heavy, stocky physique he elected To
try for the position of catcher, and
that his wisdom, even as young COL
legian, was we'll developed, has been
often demonstrated since.
His Professional Career.
Carrigan's professional baseball ca
reer, with the exception of "A few
months which were passed with a
semi professional team at Winthrop,
Me-, and later with the Toronto team
of the Eastern League in 1907, where
he was sent for "A little seasoning, has
been confined entirely to Boston. He
is the veteran of the present team,
preceding all the other members in
point of service in a Boston uniform.
One of the youngest managers, and
admittedly one of the most brainy
players in the game, carrigan has been
a consistently great backstop since his
advent into major league baseball.
Even as a boy in knickerbockers,
when he caught. pitched and played
almost every position on the team. he
gave promise of developing into a re-
markable player some day, and when
he concluded his studies at Lewiston
High school brilliant baseball future
was predicted for him.

auctioneers, trusted dock watchmen,
shipping clerks and many women were
part of this gigantic trust, which
RAIDER conducted ostensibly as a re-
spectacle business man from his pool
and billiard hall on the . .ast Side.
In appearance Isadore RAIDER is a
real Dickens character. He looks
jut as If he had stepped out of a
first edition of OLIVER Twist"
His power has rested chiefly in his
ability to avoid arrest and conviction
not only of himself but of his confed-
crates, who, like magic, at the will
of their chief, have been removed
from prison, often without trial and
always without sentence.

fear and trembling. His authority
