PREFER CATCHERS TO FiLOT
Strong Desire to Use Catchers
to Manage.

There seems to he a strong desire
among baseball club owners To select
catchers to pilot teams. No less than
six backStopS will manage National
League clubs this year. five from the
bench. and Bill Kiilifer of the Chicago
Cubs from behind the bat. Killifer is
an active catcher ard a good one. The
others are Mitchell of rhe Boston
Braves. Gibson Of the Pittsburgh Pr
rates, Hickey of the st. Louis Cardi-
nails, Moran of the Cincinnati Reds
and Wilhert Robinson of the Brook
Ign Robins.
Gibson was probably the greatest
star among the lot. He was the lead
ing backstop during his day. when an
active PLAYER with the Pittsburgh
team under Fred Clark.
In the American League Connie
Mack of the Philadelphia Athletics
and Lee Foil represent the catching
brigade who are managers. Mack is

baseball. having turned sixty years

WHY TURNER Is NOT PITCHER
Player Who Had Trial With Connie
Mack's Team Tells Why He
Became Ball Scout

Tom Turner, scout for Connie Mack
for several years, who goes to the
Portland club as scout and coacn, tells
a story on himself. 1t relates to how
he became a scout instead of a mere
pitcher. Turner. though an inhabitant
OF Philadelphia, had spent most of his
baseball career pitching in the minors
of the West, but in 1915 he managed
to land with Connie Mack for trial.
Now let him tell it:
cat last | appeared above the sur
face in baseball | was a big league
pitcher My career in the maintop was
brief, however. 1t actually began when
Connie sent me in to pitch a game
against CleveIand-it ended when
Joe Jackson hit one over behind the
score board with three on.
81 decided for myself that my pitch
ing days were over The readiness
with which l had made that decision
seemed to make quite an impression
on Mack. He told me- in his droll
way, that he was looking for a scout
VINO knew when a ball player was no
good.
81 had convinced him that | knew ]
was no good. Anybody could get en-
thusiastic about bush league stars,
Mack told me- but it took bird like
me to tell when they wouldn't by any
manner of means do.

M'AUlIFFE COMES OUT
AGAINST DRAWN BOUTS

Jack McAuliffe believes that
there IS no such thing as a draw
boxing contest. He believes that
one man must be better than the
other. In this connection he
says: There Is n winner in ev-
cry contest. 1t does not make
any difference how close 1t is,
the winner is there. and he ought
TO be declared. 1t is not fair to
the boxers. nor is ii fair TO the
spectators when a draw decision
is arrived at. 1t is all wrong.

there are n thousand or more
