Georgian Career Reviewed From Time He Tried TO Become Soldier
EXPECT MUCH OF STALLINGS IN BOSTON THIS YEAR

Sure, we don't blame you for
your curiosity. Listen while we as
sumo the role Of matador and pro-
coed to tantalize the bull.
George Stallings was wished on
the world in Georgia in 1869. When
he was a Kid little George played
with the ball teams and near ball
teams Of his home town. In this
period Of his career he played any
position they would let him. When
he was old enough he entered the
Virginia Military institute.
Here he donned the mask and
wind pad and went behind the
plate. As a catcher Stallings was
no slobodkin and managed to at
tract the attention Of the scouts
who were securing the bushes for
new material
From the institute George came
to Philadelphia, where he anchored
but half a season. He didn't quite
measure up to the standard set by
the athletes of this baseball bee
hive and was released to Toronto
In mid-seasOn. From Toronto he
went to Stockton, Cal, In 1888. and
1889 found the young nomad in
Oakland. He came back to the big
league in 1890. however, when he
played with Brooklyn. But he was
quickly shipped off again to the
bushes and saw the light Of day in
San Jose in 1919.
IRON San Jose he raiiroaded his
way to Augusta (Which was
nearer homel in 1898. The next
year, 1894, he was with Nashville
until July, and then went to Kan
sas City In 1895 he shifted back
to Nashville
Then he hlked for Detroit. with
which team he spent 1896. He man
aged to while away the hours dur
ing the next two years as a mem
Der of the Philhes. and went back
to Detroit in 1899 This time he
spent three years in Tigerland. and
was with Buffalo In 19O2-3-4-5-6.
Atlanta Georgian. [volume] (Atlanta, Ga.) 1912-1939, 1913-02-01

Then he retired from the game for
a season, and came back with
Newark in 1908.
Nineteen hundred and nine and
1910 were spent with the High
landers as manager. While with
New York Stallings boosted that
team from seventh place to second,
but was fired by Boss Farrell in
the latter part of 1910 to make room
for Hal Chase.
Managing the Highianders was
not Stallings' first position as boss.
He had acted in that capacity be-
fore with the various teams above
mentioned, and was at one time
manager of the Phillies.
After losing his job with the New
Workers., ne went to Buffalo, in the
International league, and was man
ager Of that team for two years,
1911 and 1912.
IN his latest enterprise Stallings
Is tackling some hefty PROPOSE
ton, but confidently expects to win
out over all the difficulties that
have beset the other managers be-
fore him. He expects to get rid of
the mechanical players on the team
and insert some with gray matter
in their beans.
He also intends TO get after those
members Of his team who play for
individual honors and develop a
club that will work together like a
well oiled machine
IF I don't make good with Bos-
ton. I'll retire from the game for
good" is the way the Honorable
Stallings puts it.
The new manager Of one Of the
most unsuccessful baseball aggre-
cations in the big league thinks he
can make good Anybody with
that spirit is deserving Of success
in no small measure. That's why
we're for George Stallings, the man
who expects to vanish all gloom
from Boston within the next three
wears.
