NJ 'GRAW IS To Be
REAL BOSS
Of CLUB
Stoneham Will Retire, Leaving
Muggsy President and Man.
ager of Champions.
BY DAVIS j. WALSH.

NEW YORK. Dec. 26.-John Nc.
Graw is considering a proposition
whereby he will assume the dual
role of president and manager OF
the New York Giants, 1t became
known today. In spite OF all de-
malls, Charles A. Stoneham. II seems,
wishes to retire from baseball, and
the first step in this direction calls
for McGraw to be placed in supreme
command of Giant affairs at sal
ary commensurate with the impor-
tance and responsibility Of the posi-,
ton.
Ultimately. this will mean the
passing of McGraw as manager Of
the ball club. AT present. IL means
nothing. McGraw will continue as
manager and Stoneham as principal
stockholder OF the club until such
time as a change Is deemed advis.
able. Offhand, we would venture
that nothing will be done in this
connection until 1924.
The reason for this Ia both OBJ
vious and pressing. McGraw, Stone
ham and Judge Francis X. McQuade
bought the Giant franchise in 1919
on the basis of $40 shares each for
McGraw and Stoneham and seventy
shares for McQuade, with McGraw
and McQuade having a five-year op.
ton on Stoneham's holding at the
price he paid for them. It is under
stood that the entire deal was
swung for s1,900,O00. but Sunday
baseball and a sound development
has increased the value Of the club
to such an extent that Stoneham is
not at all anxious to sell out until
the option expires.
Meanwhile. however, his business
and racing interests are claiming
his attention. and the proposition
that McGraw shoulder the entire re.
sponsibility OF running the club Is
in line with his desire to escape the
claim baseball exacts upon his time.
He has made McGraw a fattering
offer. The latter Ia more or less
dazzled by the promised financial re.
turns and is considering II. At the
moment, the matter of handing over
the direction of the team on the
field to another man hasn't occurred
to him. He sincerely believes that
he can handle both the executive
and playing end of the club, and
may make the attempt to do so.
Inevitably he will find his duties
too irksome, however. and neglect
of one side or the other will follow.
Then he will have to make his de.
cision as to whether he wants to be
a club president or a club manager.
No man can be both and adequately
meet the demands of business
such as the New York Giants rep.
resent.

No, you're wrong. It's not because

There are four steps leading to
the dugout and there only should
be three. Result. Plenty of wasted
energy. That extra step means a
lot. With an average OF twelve
men taking part in a ball game,
each step measuring foot, 1t

NJ MANUS HITS
RUNS WHEN
NEEDED
Sends Over More Tallies Than
SisIer With Average
of .312.

When Is a batting average OF .3l2
more valuable than the leagues high
est percentage Of .419.
Marty McManus. of the Browns,
will be able to dispute with George
Sisler as to what is what in valuable
batting points following the 1922
season.
There was Sisler pacing the entire
field with his .i2o average. Down
many pegs Is found McManus with
his .312 mark.
Yet McManus, with his .3l2 bat.
ting average, drove in more runs for
the st. Louis Browns last season
than Sisler with a mark of .4ls. The
batting Of McManus was responsible
for 109 runs; Sisler. 1O5.
And don't forget that they pay off
officially OH the number of runs
scored, not the base hits.
McManus developed into a brilliant
ball player last season. His value Mt
the plato is shown in comparison
with other high averages. for Cobb,
at .399, drove in only 80 runs. He'll.
mann, at .356. sent across 80. and
wallie Pipp, at .339,' sent 80 mates
across the platter.
The development and discovery OF
McManus is another. one of those
long shots i'm baseball. He was
plucked from the Tulsa club, of the
Western League, during the close of
the 1920 season as a third baseman
or a first baseman. In fact, any
thing but n good second baseman.
The first day he put on his uni
form Manager Lee Foil detected a
weak arm. II had been injured dur
ing the summer and was unable To
control the throws from the deep
side of third base. The following
spring there were so many kinks
around the right shoulder that Nc
Manus was withdrawn as even a
substitute candidate on the Browns
infield.
Fohl, however. regarded him as
big league timber, and refused to
part with him despite his poor physi
cal condition. His judgment has
been we'll rewarded.

Ivan Olson, of the Robins, who
is slated to be cast adrift by the
Brooklyns before another spring
training season rolls around, was
recently offered a chance to be-
come a minor league manager,
but refused the job. The San

but the aggressive infielder did
not like the terms offered.
1t is said that when Olson
wanted $4,000 for signing con-

West Virginia Wins First Game
For East by Defeating

SAN DIEGO, Calf. Dec. 20
West Virginia has started off the
East vs. West post-season series
with victory, defeating GonZaga, OF
Spokane, Wyo., at the new stadium
here on Christmas Day, 21 to 13, In
one of the most thrilling contests
ever seen.
In each of the first three periods
the Eastern Mountaineers put across
touchdown and, as the final pc
riod got under way, the Wyoming
Bulldogs began a feverish aerial at
tack that gave them two touch
downs before the final whistle.
After working down to Gonzaga's s
goal line twice in the first per'ed,
Nardacci. West Virginia's backfield
star. tore around outside Of Ash.
more, Gonzaga's left tackle. for the
first touchdown. Ekberg kicked
goal.
In the second period Captain
Meredith intercepted a Gonzaga for
ward pass and. fighting his way
through a broken field. ran seventy
yards for the second touchdown,
Ekberg again kicking goal.
Gonzaga began to show its class
in the second half. but it's passes
failed to bring a score and. follow
ing an exchange of punts, West Vir.
ginia got the ball at midfield. The
Fasteners drove their way down
the field and Nardacci forward pass,
ed to Simon behind Gonzaga's goal
line for tho third touchdown. Ek-
berg's goal brought the score 10
Fl to 0.
West Virginia played largely a
defensive game in the fourth period
but Gonzaga's brilliant aerial attack
brought two touchdowns. Stock.
down plunged through the line for
the first one and Bross got the
other.
The heat and dust bothered the
Eastern players considerably, but
there was little TO choose between
the elevens. Forward passes
brought most Of the gains for both
sides, the defensive play of the lines
being strong.
