JOHNNY D0BBS
NOW PILOT FOR
FOURTH TIME

IT n assuming responsibility for The
destinies of the New Orleans PEI
leans for the 1914 season, Johnny
Dobbs is undertaking his fourth man.
agerial project. 1t marks his third
berth as pilot in the Southern
League.
Johnnys first managerial position
was with Nashville, in 1905. After re-
naming out of baseball for several
years, following his withdrawal from
the Dodger fold because of eye trou-
| BILE, the Boy Pilot assumed the man
agerial role at the Tennessee Capt.
tai, but remained but one year. He
was succeeded by Bill Bernhard.
Johnny's next venture as pilot
was with Chattanooga, in 1909, when,
as the head OF the famous Lookouts,
he ran away with the bunting in the
Sally League and necessitated a di-
vision of the season. But this was
not all--he took his same brand Of
sluggers and defeated the Crackers
the best four out of seven for the
championship of Dixie.
The next year, 1910, found johnny
still in the local burg, but after a
peculiar season. in which the clue
slumped in the latter part of the sea-
son after having a commanding lead
in the middle of May. the Boy Leader
severed his affiliations with the local
outfit
Montgomery was the next scene OF
his activities, his retention of the
managerial berth there covering three
sea sons.
Now comes Dobbs' last and latest
berth at New Orleans as successor 20
Cholly Frank. His future in the
Crescent City is considered extreme
ly bright and roseate, according TO
the present outlook. Johnnys work
at Montgomery, considering the OBJ
stacles he encountered. was nothing
short of miraculous and attracted at
tention not only in all minor circles.
but in the majors. In securing Dobbs
as a pilot. the Pelican fans are OBJ
tanning a leader who was wanted by
Ave other clubs in the Southern
League and by two in the majors.
Johnny's career as a player has
been far more extensive than as a
pilot His first professional engage
ment was with Wheeling. in the Cen
trail League. in 1900. he then ap-
peared in Cincinnati Chicago and
Brooklyn. being al the time he retired
perhaps the surest fielder in the par
ent organization.
