awkward in style and lacking ex-
perience. Bill didn't create much OF
an impression.
He WIS sent to Toronto in/the In
ternatic nal League in 1907 to polish
off the rough edges. One year in the
minors and he came back to the big
show a mighty good catcher.
Breaking in behind the bat for
the Boston Americans was a tough
job with the great Lou Criger as
flrst-string backstop.
Criger, the veteran of many cam
paigns, was slipping, however, and
the youthful Carrigan coming f. st.
In a few years he proved his III
round ability and became the first
string catcher when Criger was sent
to St. Louis.
When Jake Stahl gave up the club
in 1918, after winning a world cham
pionship in 1912, Jimmy McAleer,
then president of the club. recognize
ing the worth of Carrigan, made him
manager.
The wisdom of the appointment
was made manifest when he won a
pennant and a world series two
years later, and repeated the feat in
1916, at which time he retired from
| baseball.
One of Carrigan's pet theories
] relative to pitchers, was they never

should be permitted to argue with
the umpires. Whenever a Boston
twirler started to take issue with
ruling on balls and strikes, CARR
gan always agreed with the umpire
while the pitcher was within hear
ing.
IF you ever missed one in your
life, you kicked that one" might be
his shot to the umpire a moment
later.
Carrigan always contended that
no pitcher could do his stuff and UNI
pire at the same time.
A more courageous athlete never
piloted a big league ball club.
Carrigan had an opinion on all
things and expressed it when he be-
lieved ii was wise to do so.
You are out of the ball game if
you come up here" is a pet express
sion of most umpires to nip a dis
pute in bud when some manager
starts to rush him.
That never was successful with
Carrigan. You couldn't stop him
with threat, If he thought he was
right and had kick coming.
II know that l am out Of the ball
game if l come up there, but here
come" and he always did.
When it was over, there was no
scene in getting Carrigan off the

Notre Dame Opens Season
Tonight-Six Swing Into
Action Tuesday.

This week marks the start of the
college basketball season in this
State. A number of the teams play
their first games, which open a
period of strenuous activity on the
hardwood. Notre Dame, with four
OF It's fine team of last year back,
dashes into action tonight at South
Bend against Armour Tech.
On Tuesday night six Hoosier out
fits show their stuff De Paw is
at Earlham, Indiana Central at
Franklin and State Normal at Wa
bash. On Wednesday N. A. G. U.
team of Indianapolis plays Rose
Poly at Terre Haute.
Indiana University is the first Big
Ten representative to swing into
action. De Paw is at Bloomington
next Friday. Last season the Tigers
surprised the Crimson and won.
Practically the same clubs oppose
each other again this week.
Next Week
Purdue does not open until next
week. The Boilermakers meet State
Normal at Lafayette, Dec. IA. But
Ter will play it's first game one week
from Thursday, Dec. Is, at the new
armory on N. Pennsylvania ST.
The transforming Coe team Will be
the opponent.
1t is too early to be sure OF any
estimate Of strength. However, In
ence members who tied for the lead
last year, look good again. Notre
Dame also should have another sue
cessful year.
De PAW should do well with vet
Grams back for most positions. Wa
bash is more or less of a question
mark, but the Scarlet is likely to be
plenty tough. Benny De Vol and
RED" Robinson are enough to make
the Charlottesville outfit no easy
mark. A center and back guard are
needed.
Depends on Sophs
Franklin may be good and then
it may not. 1t all depends on how
the sophomore material works I'M
der pressure. The Baptists will have
a green team, very much different
from the clever veterans Of former
years. They are likely to develop
under Coach Wagners watchful care
as the season progresses.
Butler also is rather difficult to
dope. Again much depends on the
"sophs." The team does not look as
impressive as 1t has in the past,

Carrigan brings back some of the
