HOLY CROSSE HAS
FURNISHED HUB
WITT, MANAGERS
Bill carrigan and lack Barry
Are Graduates of Worcester
School; Both Made Good

Holy Cross College, located al
Worcester, Mass, makes a specially OF
turning out managers for the Boston
Red Sox. ,--=<-
When Jack Barry stepped into the
shoes left vacant by Bill Carrigan it
was the first time that two successive
managers of one major league club
proved to be graduates of the same
Institution of learning.
And these two Boston managers are
not the only college grads who have
taken hold Of the managerial reins at
the Hub. for Jake. Stahl, whose alma
mater Is the University of Illinois
had preceded them in the role OF
pilot. ...>...
First Trial for Barry
1t seems that the Boston Red Sox
have run strongly to highly educated
leaders, and, incidentally. men who
have had talents for fields of endeay'
or outside of baseball. Both Stahl and
Carrigan resigned as pilots of the SoS
and both embarked in the banking
business. Id. p
Barry, who takes his first fling as a
manager this year, has made for.
tune out of baseball as a player, and
when his baseball days are over he
plans to go into business for himself
and may follow In the footsteps OF
his predecessors by taking up the
banking game"
Back in the days Of John l. Tay:
lor's regime as president of the Red
Stockings, several managers were
tried out who had been college men.
In the early weeks Of the 1907 season
George Huff, a Dartmouth graduate,
took a fling as manager, but did not
last long, resigning after reign of
less than two weeks. Bob Unglaub,
who had done some work at the Uni
versity Of Maryland, had much the
same experience as Huff.
Carrioan a Great Leader 10y @a~t
When Jake Stahl was the leader Of
the Sox, baseball critics attributed
most OF his success to his simon-pure
luck. But this was never true in
Carrigan's case. for the scrappy
catcher would no more dodge trouble
or obstacles than he would a base
runner sliding into the home plate.
Carrigan was a manager Of the fight
ing type, and his success in the major
leagues is all too well known for re-
counting here. II.
And now comes Barry, who went
from Holy Cross to the school of Con.
ME Mack, where he was one of the
most important cogs in the famous
Mackian championship machines. The
experience Barry received under the
McGillicuddy regime cannot be un-
derestimated, for, although Connie
Mack has slipped from the enviable
position he once held In the spotlight,
he will always be ranked as one of
the smartest managers in the history
of baseball sat ~.
At Boston, Barry has played under
Carrigan long enough to absorb the
ideas of his predecessor. He already
knows Mack's system, and with his
own ideas blended into the teachings
of these two pilots he certainly ap-
pears to be we'll qualified to take the
reins at the Hub. 8 /

At first base McGraw will have
Walter Holke, the brilliant recruit
from the international League who

was with the New Workers. He Is

Charley Herzog, years ago star
performer at third base and recently
shining light at shortstop, has been
converted into a second baseman and
is doing better there than at any of
his former jobs. ...="...
At third base the former Cub,
Heinie Zimmerman, will be planted.
His hitting, in addition to a great
fielding ability, has caused him to be
styled the best third baseman in the
league.
Arthur Fletcher, another brilliant
performer. will be at shortstop.
Every one of these cogs In the in

Holke, is a veteran performer. There
isn't a chance that youngster will
take the place of any of them, and for
that reason there will be few re-
cruits on hand This defense un.
doubtedly will stand through the sea-
son.
The outfield is just as strongly or
ganized, and will have this year an
additional bulwark in the person Of
Red Murray, provided McGraw de-
cides to retain the sorreltopped gar
dener.
And Benny, Too
Benny Kauff will have the center
field position again, and McGraw, in
addition. to all his supporters, expects
the former Fed to make good in far
better fashion this year than his last
effort showed. Kauff's hitting last
season began to show improvement
as the season approached its end.
Davy Robertson will be planted in
right field and George Burns in left,
unless all the signs fail. They are
both mighty hitters and far above the
average as fielders.
For q pitching staff McGraw has
the youthful, brilliant Schupp, as q
nucleus for wonderful staff. Schupp
has been doing some holding out, but

time comes to report. In addition,
there will be Jeff Tesreau, Fred An

show well.
