In selecting a manager who has hao
absolutely no major league experience,
Charles Comiskey, owner and presi-
dent of the Chicago White Sox, has
set a precedent that upsets all base
ball tradition. Comiskey yesterday
sent forth the announcement that
Clarence Rowland, an obscure base
hall leader. whose efforts last year
we're confined to leading Peoria,
would manage the White Sox next
year.
In the past it has been customary
for major league moguls to get some
high priced manager, IL only for Inc
purpose of advertising, but Comis-
KEYS departure takes q new trend IN
the selection of managers. There is
no good reason why minor league
manager should not be successful in
the majors. A minor league manager
must develop and oftentimes dig up
his own material. A major Lacquer
has it handed TO him. Comiskey has
had a few managers, but since Fielder
Jones none has displayed much skill
in polishing off the youngsters handed
to them.
The biggest handicap placed in
Rowland's path is the task of win
ming the respect and esteem of his
players. Big leaguers will naturally
feel a bit contsmptuous about being
ruled by a man who has never himself
been capable of playing baseball OF
major league calibre. Connie Mack
and George Stallings were never stars
in the big show, but they at least got
trials and stuck for a season or two
in fast company. Then, too, these
managers developed their teams and
did not have f1ll-fiedged talent hand
ed to them, as Rowland will have. II
the newcomer has real managerial
ability, however, he will speedily win
the esteem of his men and can over
come these handicaps.

of the day when the hens are most apt
to lay, and a careful record kept of the
eggs laid. This may seem like good
bit of extra work, but if it helps TO weed

boring poor layers is not from the hens
