CHURCH LEAGUE GAMES
Red Army Faces Stanley Memorial Squad and First Lutherans Battle Trinity Methodists.

The third week of the church league, during which five games are scheduled to be played, will open tonight at Willow Brook park when the Red Army faces the Stanley Memorial church and the First Lutherans cross bats with the Trim ity Methodists. The former game promises to be corker, as both teams have evidenced about the same ability against their opponents in the first weeks of play. The Lutherans, unbeaten as yet. are booked to oppose the Methodists, who forefeited their first game and were routed by the Stanley Memori- al team last week. This should be an easy win for the league leaders, but the Methodists are now organized and will put up a better fight.
 The Blue Army-south Church game will be replayed tomorrow night. These teams were evenly matched when they came together and the game went an extra inning, so that the extra contest made necessary by the Congregationalists' protest should oe keenly fought one.
 The South church will play again Friday night, with the White Army as its foe, while the Blue Army will stack up against the Center church.

(BY BILLY EVANS)

Is diplomacy greater asset than keen mind in achieving success as major league manager?
 Is it better to be good judge of human nature than to possess the ability to outguess the opposition?
 The career of Branch Hickey. re- gently supplanted by Rogers Horns by, as manager of the St. Louis Cardinals, would cause one to think so.
 Branch Rickey is the crossword puzzle of baseball, One of the brainiest men in the game, he has never been great success as a manager.
 In this connection I recall the comment that Bobby Wallace, one of the greatest shortstops that ever graced the pastime, made to me over 10 years ago.
 WallaCe's Tribute to Hickey
 Wallace at the time was playing under Hickey who was then in charge of the St, Louis Browns, It was rather formidable looking club that year but didn't meet with much success,
 "Rickey Is one of the smartest baseball men 1 ever worked for as far as theory is concerned" said Wallace, but somehow the club cant win.
 'At getting the signals of the op- position he is simply d marvel. He can sit on the bench and call prac- tically every play of the rival team.
 If he doesn't know them at the start of the game. inside of three innings he will have the pitchout sign, the hit and run signal. the steal sign. as well as most of the other so-called strategic moves of the other team.
 R!CkCy Full of Theories
 If Hickey has fault, il is in his absolute domination of his team. His methods fore or less destroy initiative and make the players mere cogs in the machine"
 Associated for years in the same league with Hickey, I have studied his methods l. IS my opinion that he preached too much theory, tried 10 cram too much baseball knovl- edge into the heads of his players
 ie to let the player he natural, gamble with the bone plays it is possible he will pull rather than Try to make smart guy out of him
 Another probable fault that no doubt played havoc with Rickeys chances ot success was tendency on his part 70 sniff his lineup on the slightest proyocation
 Strong for Playing iiunChes
 Rlckey played hunchrs He would throw substitutes into the game with reckless 3honIon. remove regulars ln slump on the slightest pre'oNt Thcrn vas always lack of stability '0 Flckc1s teams be cause the players reflected the spirit of he manager
 The failure cf Hickey IS conclusive proof that mana geual strategy is only 3 minor feature in the winning of ball games IAckey wa$ and is, smart baseball man, hur h. rouldn't eyecute rla,s on the field or contribute timely hasc hits
 In the passing Nf Elokov goes rhe only major lc7Eu" player or manager who refused to t7ko part m tn" pastime on Sunday
