 SAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Feb. 20 (by maiD The rival managers who will pilot the various teams of the Pacific Coast League this year and match with and baseball knowledge in the race for the flag are well known to followers of baseball and each has the confidence of the communities which he represents. One of the often answered but still unsolved problems of athletics is the question, how much does manager count for in the results achieved by his team? The men who will guide the destinles or the Pacific Coast League this season are:
 San Francisco-Charles Graham.
 Salt Lake City-Eddie Herr.
 Los Angeles-"Red" Killefer.
 vernon-William Essick.
 Portland-Walter McCredie.
 Oakland-Dell Howard
 Sacramento-William Rodgers.
 Seattle-W. J. Clymer.
 Herr, who is managing the Salt Lake team, is a former scout for the St. Louis club and a new arrival among Pacific Coast managers. That Herr has his work cut out for him in the matter of getting team together may be inferred from an article in Salt Lake City paper which stated the only thing needed by the local club was players. The present urg- ent needs of the Salt Lake club are said to be three outfielders, a second baseman, high class pitcher and first string catcher.
 As matter of fact, the predicament of Herr is identical with that of prac- tically all the other managers at the present time. Each is confronted with the problem of finding two, three or more players who are capable of strengthening acknowledged weak points in the various clubs. Players who are picked up now are as likely as not to be discarded after tryout of day or two during the prelimin- ary training season. On the other hand, players will unexpectedly be un- covered after the start of the regular playing season who will make good and play regularly throughout. Pre- season speculation, however, has be- come part and parcel of the game for the baseball enthusiast.

John Ganzel, manager of the Kansas City club of the American Association is on the hunt for catcher to sue ceed Jack Onslow, who, because of the salary offered him, decided to play independent ball. He will manage the Pittsburg club of the Allegheny Steel League. Onslow is a baseball man of considerable experience in both col 1ege and professional game. He made his professional debut with Dallas Texas, in 1908. He was with the De- troit Americans in 1910, and later played with the New York Nationals. He went to Kansas City from the Giants last spring.

Dawson Springs, Ky, will be the spring training camp for the Louis- vile club of the American Association. William Neal, general manager of the club, said the squad would number about twenty-five. The players will start for the training camp March 26 and will stay fourteen days, if weather permits.
 The University of Iowa for the first time in many years has started spring football practice indoors. Veterans of last season, including Captain Loh- man, Smith, Bedding, Mockmore and Slater were among the players out for the first practice.
 Charlie White, the Chicago light weight, having received his discharge after eighteen months of service as boxing instructor, plans to launch a campaign to land a match with Genny Leonard, the lightweight champion. During the war White was first sta toned at Camp Custer and later be- came boxing instructor at Fort Sheri- dan.
 Unless an increase in salary is granted him, Fred Mollwitz, first base man with the Pittsburg Nationals, will not play with the Pirates this season.
