SNYDER BACK
With HOUSTON
Resigned AS Manager
After Quitting
Over Salary

HOUSTON, Tex, Jan. 5.-P-
Frank "Pancho" Snyder today signed
for a second year as manager Of the
Houston Baseball club.
Snyder resigned in October after
plotting his warriors TO victory in
the Texas league and Dixie Series.
Snyder left the club after the close
Of the Dixie Series as n result Of a
salary difference with President
Ankenman.
Snyder and President Ankenman Of
the Houston club "fell out" last year
because the Buff prexy refused to
pay Snyder and his men for the in
term between the close of the Tex
as league series and that OF the
Southern league, which was five
days. that is the Southern league
didn't settle its pennant fight until
five days after the pennant had been
won by Houston in the Texas league.
Snyder claimed pay for that five-day
interim and Ankenman refused.
Frank Snyder's home is in San
Antonio. He is a catcher. and was
in the major leagues a number Of
years, prior to coming to Houston
last year as manager. His activities
IN the majors included many years
with the New York Clans, where
ne was regarded as the best masks
mar in the National league.
He was sent TO the st. Louis Card
mails in 1926, via the waiver price.
He refused to report, and returned IN
his home in San Antonio and stayed
out of baseball that year. However.
love Of the game was too strong for
Snyder, and he reported to the St.
Louis club in 1927, and the following
year was sent TO Houston as mana
ger.
