As near as We can determine from
this distance, the trouble with Joe
Tinker as manager of. the Cincinnati
Reds was that he wanted to be man
ager Of the Reds, which is manifestly
an absurd desire. on the part OF a
manager Of the Reds.
It begins to look as IL these, man
ayers of. the Reds will -neSer learn
anything, and you cannot blame. Gar:
rylous Hermann and his associates IL
they are feeling q bit discouraged.
Why any. n should -mant to. man
age the Reds in the first place is nei-
ther here % there. but the fact re-
mains that no sooner do the
safe and sane manager than he Its
The ridiculous idea that he must nam
age the Reds. 1t is said that some
managers Of the Reds in the.%past
have even wanted to give orders to
the Reds, but such managers seldom
lasted very long. . -. !.
The dismissal Of Josephus Is rather
opportune at that, as it will serve to
space out the. next. few weeks with
speculation as to his unfortunate sue
cessor. Coming at a time when even
by inadvertently naming his manager
before April 1, it will give Roger
Bresnahan. Tommy Leach and Fielder
Jones, and all the other well-known
members of the Amalgamated Asso-
citation Of Prospective Managers, a
chance to ease themselves back into
the public prints. It's a mighty i'll
wind that blows no M a column and
a half, you can bet on that!
