SOME 1s2 FACTS ABOUT
 THE INTERNATIoNAL LEAGUE

Reading and Toronto, Jersey City and Reading, and Reading and Balti- more each played tie games Jersey City and Baltimore, and Buffalo and Rochester played games that after wards were thrown out because of protests allowed.
 The official records of the Interna- donal League for the season of 1922 show that two hundred and ninety seven players engaged in games for the eight contending clubs. Of this number, twenty-one players took part Tn games for two clubs. < Of the one hundred and seventy players who engaged in fifteen or more contests thirty-seven players, in fifty or more games, hit for a batting per- centage of 300 or better.
 Robert Fothergill, Rochester, is the leading batter, with percentage of .3S3 for 101 games. Among the regular players, Frank Gilhooley, Reading, who played 164 games, leads with a per- centage of .S61 or 362.
 Gus Getz, Reading, was the only player to take part in every contest his club played, 167 games.
 Clifford Brady, Rochester, went to bat the most times, 65S. Maurice Arch deacon, Rochester, scored the most tNAAoS -@OA' es4AA NT41IlOOlGy, f66aQ1nE made the most hits, 230. Al Winro.

cATcHERS MAKE BEST
 BIG LEAGUE MANAGERS

It is rather interesting fact that few major pitchers ever take up the managerial game.
 Seldom has a major league club ever been successfully handled by a play ing pitcher or one who has outlived his usefulness on the rubber. Clarke Griffith, best of all pitcher managers, had a rather tempestuous career.
 Christy Mathewson is one of the few great pitchers who tried the man agerial game after he became passe as a pitcher. He met with only poor suc- cess in handling the Cincinnati club.
 Catchers seem to predominate as managers. In the National league Bill Kllifer at Chicago, Pat Moran at Cin- cinnati, Branch Hickey at St. Louis, Wilbert Robinson at Brooklyn and Fred Mitchell at Boston, all learned the fine points of the game back of the bat.
 In the American league the mana gerial honors are divided among catch CTS, infielders and outfielders.

"JIGGs" DoNAHUE MAY GO TO HARTFORD CLUB

John Donahue, alias "Jiggs,' who is one of the left-overs from the Provi- dence club when thata franchise was shifted to Albany, is wanted by the Senators, according to the latest trade rumor floating around the Eastern League swing and there appears to be a. chance that "Jiggs'' will again be pastiming under his two year Albany boss, Paddy O'Connor.
 Donahue is a veteran in all that the word implies but he isn't as yet doing any knocking on the door of the Has Been Club, seeking a membership in the group of those that have gone from active service on the diamond. He played second base, third base and the outfield for the Albany and Waterbury clubs last season and proved himself to be handy man to have around on any ball club.
 It is expected that Donahue will not be with the Waterbury outfit next season as Herman Bronkie, who hasn't yet been named manager of the Brass cos but who has the job practically

There is every indication that tho Worcester team will be a strong pen nant chaser next year. Eddie Eayrs as good a ball player as the circuit boasted this season. will manage and play also. Others who will be with the club are Johnny Nagle, the peppery backstop; Sturvenger, a new first sac ker; Lew Malone and Marty Shay of New Haven at second and short re- spectively.
 When Elmer Bowman. the New Hav- en fence buster batted for .365 last season, he did more than merely lead the Eastern League stickers. Bowman set the highest batting the Eastern League has known. in it's seven years on the planet, for players taking part in more than 100 games. There havs been higher batting avera ges turned in the O'Neil circuit, and at least ong by regular. but by nobody who took part in as many as 1OO contests.
 There is a strong tendency in the major leagues toward big coaching and scouting staffs Bill killefer announces that he will have Bobby Wallace, Kit ty Bransfield and Jack Doyle ,combiDa | the bushes for new material. Great | players they were, every one of them, and they ought to know a conner when they see one. Frank Chance will have Hughey Duffy, Jimmy Burke, Orvia Orverall and Jimmy Archer. While Ar cher is carried on the voluntary re- | tired list of the Brooklyn club it it not expected that Robbie will prevent his signing with the Red Sox.
 | The showing made by Bantam cham I pion Joe Lynch against Midget Smith | in the Garden last week indicates that Joe will not hold the title by the | time another Christmas comes around Lynch is becoming shopworn and looks it. He trained as hard as he knew how for Smith and the result was disap- pointing to the champions admirers. Joe Burman of Chicago is in line for the next crack at Lynch. If the match is made it will be like signing away the title. Lynch has met Burman and knows how he stands with him. It looks as though Burman will have to wait a long time.
 The two managers. who ducked the scythe that swept the eastern mana gerial group this fall, will be the con- mittee on reception for the new pilots, Gene McCann of Bridgeport and Bill Donovan are the sole survivors. New l corners are Paddy O'Connor, who comes
