BENCH BOSSES
ARE FOUND To
Be EFFECTIVE
Active Work of Managers
on Teams Is Becoming
Thing of Past.
MATHEWSON DOES
NOT PITCH GAMES
By JACK VETOCK.

JEW YORK. Feb. 14.-There may
M not be playing manager in
= the major league this year.
Last season Jack Barry. of the Red
sox. was the only manager in the big
show who got into the game, but
there Is little chance, apparently, that
Black Jack viii pilot the Sox this
year, and Harry Frazee is said TO be
in favor Of bench pilot.
When Christy Mathewson took the
reins at Cincinnati he announced
that he might attempt TO pitch. in
regular turn for the Reds. So far he
has not done so. and although he is
said to have a longing to get back
into the game there seems to be little
chance that he viii try TO come back
Lean Towards Bench Managers.
Some years ago club owners all
wanted playing managers. They did
not think it worth while to hire a
manager to sit on the bench. Then
came such managers as McGraw and
Mack who directed the working Of
their teams from the shelter of the
dugouts on the coaching boxes. and
they were so successful that club
owners in other cities began to lean
t.ward bench warming bosses for
their players
With the signing Of Jack Hendricks
to manage the Cards the National
league is solid with bench managers.
Hendricks, McGraw, Moran, Mathew
son. Mitchell, Stallings, Robinson and
Rezdek make up the managerial array
in the old league, and every one will
manage from the bench. In the Ameri-
can league Griffith, Rowland. Mack.
Jennings, Higgins, Foil and Jones
are bench managers, and il Frazee
signs bench pilot it will be unani-
nous for the strategists who work
from the long timber.
Bench Bosses Successful
The sentiment OF the club owners
as displayed by their selection OF
bench managers indicates that the
pilot who bosses his team from the
bench is most successful. The bench
managers Of the big show today are.
without exception. veterans in years
or experience, or both They are for
the most part older than any OF their
players and they are better able to
handle their men
The man OF mature years-from 3S
or so on past the 40 year mark-com-
mands the respect OF younger players
and gets results where younger man
Davis Refires.
Harry Davis has retired after a
quarter OF a century on the diamond.
The famous captain and coach of
the Athletics recently notified Connie
Mack that his steel and scrap iron
business has grown to such proper
tons that he can no longer devote
his time TO the sport of the green
sWard. So he is through.
AS player Davis was star in his
prime. AS a coach OF young players
he was invaluable to Connie Mack.
Though he did not get much of the
credit for the youngsters developed
in the Mackian camp, he was largely
responsible for the bringing out of
many of them. He was Mack's right
hand bower and the Philadelphia club
forced now to build UP a new ma
chine, is going to miss him.

FIELD GLASSES
ARE WANTED BY
Sub SEARCHERS
Suggested That Glasses Be
Donated by Race Track
Followers.
JUAREZ GLASSES
MAY FIND "SUBS"

- NICE racing over in Juarez has
been put on pasture for an in

glasses are lying about idle in FL
Paso. Comes now Uncle Sam with a
suggestion that all those having such
glasses may help 10 end the war with
them.
Binoculars. spy-glasses and teie-
scopes are wanted by the govern
ment, to be used by men on the look
out for submarines. More 'eyes" are
needed on shipboard than ever before
to maintain the constant and efficient
lookout for the submarine. Sextants
and chronometers are also required.
In days past the United States drew
its supply Of these articles from for
efgn countries. This stock is no lon
ger 10 be had The new methods OF
naval warfare make the need Of
glasses more essential than ever be-
fore. Through the papers OF the
country an appeal was made several
weeks ago. and this resulted in the
receipt Of over 5000 glasses OF various
kinds.
Weed Thousands
This number is insufficient The
navy needs many thousands more So
the appeal Is repeated TO lovers OF the
sport OF kings and TO their patriotism
TO furnish more eyes for the Navy,
as the government can not under the
law accept services or material with

paid for each article accepted. which
sum viii constitute the rental price.

All articles should be securely

partment, and every effort will be
made to return them with added his
torio interest. at the termination Of
the war. It is. OF course. impossible
to guarantee them against damage or
loss.
As there has never vet been a call to
FL Pasoans for help in prosecuting the
