CzAR|SM NECESSARY
To SOUND BASEBALL,
|. {. SANBORN SAYS
May Be Failure in Govern.
ment, but Best for Con.
troll of Sport.
BY /. &. SANBORN

Whatever may be it's disadvantages
as a system Of civil or political gov
eminent, czar;sm has been discover
ed to be the best form of control in
sports. amusements and certain kinds
Of businss. The latest organization
AT this writing-to follow the lead of
professional baseball is the Western
college conference. which found it need
ed another Judge Lands to clean house
and keep it clean.
Filmdom. the legitimate theaters and
the building trades of the m%etropoli,,
tan district were the ether forms of
enterprise which acknowledged that
green diamond magnates had shown
them the way to win back the conf
dence and patronage of the public.
1t none Of these, however, is the
one man power quite as essential to
successful government as in profess
sionai baseball. which is such a pecu-
liar combination of sport. amusement
M business that it requires a code of
laws all its own and particularly dras-
tic methods Of enforcing it's own laws.
One reason for that is because the
business instincts Of the promoters Of
the nations pastime constantly prompt
them to regard violation of the rules
AS justifiable from a sporting stand
point-they can get away with it.
The club owner who breaks a base
ball law to strengthen his team is re-
garded by his patrons in the same light
as the bootlegger.
Eternal vigilance. therefore. is the
forte of the man who is placed on the
high throne with all the powers of a
car TO keep everybody in line. And
he is likely to be about as popular as
a good umpire who gives all decisions
as he sees them without regard to
whose OK is gored.
Not even the head of a great bust
ness concern needs for success as abb
sOlute authority as a baseball manager.
He must have undivided authority over
the men OIL his team or his value to his
employers is lessened. Unless his
word is law and there is no court of
appeal discipline soon vanishes. and
with it goes the winning spirit, without
which no team ever COPIED a pennant.
That was one secret of the success
Of Frank Chance in Chicago and the
big reason for his failure when he
tried to handle the old Yankee outfit
in New York. Chance took the reins
in Chicago when Charles w. Murphy
was just breaking in as a magnate and
did not imagine he knew everything
about baseball. Consequently he gave
the Peerless Leader full sway-for a
time. After a year or two of success
Murphy began to think he knew the
playing end Of base ball as well as the
business, so tried to advise Chance.
The Cub manager stopped this in
his characteristic way. | remember

inson is the cynosure. He is repre-
scented by his admirers as not in the

year when he won the classic after a
thrilling match with Roger Wethered,
an amateur. Jocks card was sprinkl-
ed with brides and miracles. If the
Chicagoan attains his best form ex-
pert British opinion anticipate that he
may well carry the crown again back
with him.
Hagen is regarded as one Of the
very best match players in the United

ing to Sandwich was to make the first
leg of the round -the-world tour he has
planned with Joe Kirkwood, the Aus
tralian trick shot star. who, they do
say, can make a golf ball do everything

one trip into Philadelphia. The Cubs
arrived in the morning and Chance
found a telegram from Murphy con
graduating him on his success in the
city we had just left and diplomat
cally suggesting that Overall had been
effective against the Phillies. so why
not pitch him in the first game.
Chance showed me the telegram and
his answer was that he-Chance-was
running that ball team.
That afternoon the Cub pilot used
another pitcher, although he had in
tended opening with Overall and using
him twice in the series. The Cubs won
the game just the same, and Chance
got no more wires about what pitcher
to work on that trip.
Chances successors in the manage
ment of the Cubs never had the same
authority over their players that he
demanded. for they did not have the
same grip on the club owner that
Frank did. Not until long after the
merger of Cubs and Federal leaguers-
in fact. not until Bill Week became
president of the north side club-was
the Cub manager made a Ear again.
Then the success Of the team vas put
absolutely up to the manager, with no
abb for failure.
Demonstration of that fact is found
in the trading Of Max Flack, the fast
outfielder of the Cubs. who ran out on
Killefer during the spring training trip
and left for his st. Louis home with
out permission. Killefer's authority
was maintained by not giving in TO
Flack. So it's up to the sergeant.

shortest day was about IL hours. In

GREAT FALLS TIRES"

Does this seem logical? Why not? Montana affords an
unlimited field for the exploitation of Montana products,
and if there is any better city in Montana than Great Falls
to foster industries, taking it from the standpoint of geo.
graphical location, railroads, motive power, labor market.
etc. then we are not aware of it; however. this factor seems
to be lost sight of by the people of Great Falls themselves.
A little stiffening of their financial backbone is all that is
now lacking, and just a wee bit more confidence would be
appreciated by those of US (outside of your city, who have
in the past backed Great Falls enterprises.

In conclusion, | urge you, citizens of Great Falls, to arouse
