bUCkY HARRIS TO
CONFER ABOUT CLUB
WITHIN few DAYS

New York, Nov. 30-P)-Baseball
may never be popular in England,
where the boys throw baseball like
girls" but coaches of Americas ma
tional pastime are in great demand
overseas, "Bucky' Harris says.
The manager Of the Washington
senators, returning from honey
moon trip abroad with his bride,
formerly Miss Elizabeth Sutherland,
declared he was still up in the air"
as to plans for the coming season.
He will confer with Clark Griffith.
owner of the club, in few days,
he said.
In discussing the baseball situa-
ton abroad, Harris said that almost
constant rain in England and on the
continent made baseball in Europe
"a long way off," "It would be al
most impossible to finish a game on
most days." he added.
Cricket, the national game in
England, has seen the advantage of
the snap peg" of baseball infielders
and wants instructors who can teach
British youth how to put wrist and
forearm into a quick throw. All
Youngsters want to be bowlers, the
baseball equivalent of pltcher'
Bucky said, but the stiff arm under
hand throw of Britain's star "twirl-
ers" is more difficult to master ana
less effective than the American
overarm toss.
Baseball may have a future In
Ireland, Harris said, in pointing out
the long list of names of Irish orl-
Gin on big league rosters. And the
Irishman is handy at throwing
things" he added.

Another tWirler. who may be classed
as a regular. is versatile Jack Bent

close of last season, who McGraw
says can run, hit, pitch, sing tenor,
and play first base or a ukelele."
Other hurlers going south are

Courtney, former big Lacquer. and
with San Francisco last season. and
Fay Thomas, left handler from the

spite the loss to professionals of SUI
zanne I4englen, Vincent Richards

The return of the Germans, who
will compete In England for the first
time since the war; will add new in
terest to the matches.
Also it Is considered that the ex-
tension of the seeding" principle in
the draw should make the final
rounds more closely fought. At pres
ent an overseas player nominated by
his national association Is protected
against meeting another star from
his own country in the early rounds,
but he may be put out of competi-
ton by a crack player of another
country. Thus Patterson and An
derson, of Australia, could not meet
early in the competition. but either
might have to play Tilden or Lacoste
in the first round
To prevent this. the British gov
erning body is considering a scheme
for seeding players according to
ranking as well as nationality.

DOUBTS Value OF
OLYMPIC GAMES

London. Nov. 30.-(P)-Lord Birk-
enhead, secretary for India, is dubi-
GUS as to the value of the olympic
games. On the ether hand the Duke
of Sutherland, chairman of the Brit
ish Olympic Association, is of the
opinion that these international con-
tests serve to tighten the bonds of
international friendship more than
anything else. Lord Birkenhead eX-
pressed his doubt regarding the
games at the annual dinner at the
British WMH, where the preliminary
plans for the Antwerp meeting in
1928 were being formulated.
Il wonder" said Lord Birkenhead,
'if these great international compe-
titions are worth while. Do they do
good? II they promote the spirit
which leads to the courage and spirit
of youth, as against the evil miasma
of war, it is a great achievement"

Bill Car6an Successful Pilot Decade Again arnes
| CARDIGAN SIGNS
TO PILOT RED S0X
| FOR COMING 7 YEARS

Boston, Nov. William f.
"Bilr' Carrigan of Lewiston, Maine,
manager of the Boston Red Sox in
the heyday of their championship
from before the world war, today
was again named manager Of his old
club on a two-year contract to sue
coed Lee Foil. resigned.
President Bob Quinn made the an
nouncement after five minute con-
ference with Carrigan at Fenway
Park today and although no salary
was announced, ii was understood
that the figure named was the high
est ever offered Boston manager.
Prominent at the conference was
Joe Conway, manager of q Boston
sporting goods store, who was credit
ed with being the man who finally
brought Carrigan back to the game
after repeated trips to Lewiston in
the face of sturdy opposition to re-
entering the big league from Carri-
gan himself.
Carrigan reached the height of his
first stay in fast company in 1915
and 1916 when he piloted the Red
Sox to successive worlds champion
ships over the Phillies and the
this period that he developed and
handled such stars as Ruth, Carl
Mays, Dutch Leonard, Joe Wood, Ray
Collins, Everett Scott and the fam
Gus combine of Lewis, Speaker and
Hooper, often dubbed the greatest
outfield organized baseball ever saw.
Although he is returning to the big
leagues at the age of 43, he was call
ed 'the original boy manager" when
he succeeded Jake Stahl as pilot of
the Sox in 1913.
Entering Holy Cross from the Lew
iston High school in 1904, Carrigan
first attracted big league attention
by his work behind the plate in 1906.
The spring he signed a Red Sox
contract and was farmed out the fol-
lowing season to the international
Club of Toronto. Toronto won the
international season an accident on
the Boston team gave Carrigan his
chance.
Lou Criger, regular Red backstop
broke his hand. Carrigan stepped
into the injured players shoes and
never stepped out again until he re-
tired in 1916, one of the richest men
in baseball at that time.
Since then he has become increas-
ingly well to do in his home town
of Lewiston in banking and theatre
cal agency managing. He retired
from active business a few years ago
to devote all his time to '1oafing''
and his family, which consists of Mrs
Carrigan, the former Beulah Bart
lett, and three children, Beulah. 10,
Constance. 8, and William F., Jr., 5.
Carrigan announced tonight that he
had not yet discussed policies with
Quinn. but he indicated that he would
attempt to secure the services of
Heinie Wagner his old shortstop. and
companion of the Red Sox, to come
to Boston next year as his chief as
sistant.
The club owner said that the new
manager will be left free to pick his
own assistants.
