Manning Hurls Fine Ball for Douglas Mclaughlin
 Is Not So Effective

Jimmy Manning hurled shut out ball yesterday for Douglas against the American Legion, and allowed only six well scattered safeties. He was supported by errorless field ing Douglas won to 0. A fine game of ball was marred by poor umpiring. Mclaughlin was not so effective, and was touched for sev- en clean hits and three successful bunts.
 Niemi opened for Douglas with a single to center field and was ad- vanced by Bobby's pop over second base line to left field scoring Niemi. base. Andrews hit close to third Bobby going to third, and ventur- ing too far off base, was caught mapping by Denny. Bonner went out, Cunningham to Greber, and Manning popped up to Greber for the third out. 1 run, 3 hits.

 Balog hit to short but Greber dropped the throw. Niemi famed and Balog tried to steal second but English headed him off by a pretty peg to Burda. Coughlin popped up to McCloskey for the third out. Greber led off with a screaming three-bagger to right field and if he had hustled could have stretched it into a home run. This was as far as he got as Eng fish famed, Ramsay popped up to Roller and Burda could not con- meet. No runs, l hit.
 Andy stuck out his chest and Denny picked a button off his shirt. Bonner advanced him to second on a single to left. Manning hit to the box, Denny whipping the ball to third to Pick who dropped it., and the bases were congested.

SHOTTON HIGH MAN
 AS PHILLY MANAGER fG O - A1A~ A A'A AA V A V A~ A ~

PHILADELPHIA, July a. If Burt Shotton remains with the Phillies the specified time of his contract, he will have been mana ger of the club longer than any other leader the Phillies have had in recent times.
 Pat Moran, who piloted the Quak- CTS to the National League pennant in 1915, served the team four years. This record was cqua1led by Art Fletcher, now coach of the New York Yankees. The managerial careers of others with the team have been brief.
 The club management feels that Shotton has been making progress with team that has been hang ing around the basement of the Ma tional League so many years. That is why he was signed the other day to a three year contract end- ing with the season of 1892.
 Shotton came to the Phillies in
  1927, succeeding "Stuffy" McInnis, former member of Connie Macks famous infield of McInnis, Collins, Barry and Baker.
 He is from Amherst, Ohio. He began his big league career with the St. Louis Browns in 1909; was farmed out in 1910, but was a regu- lar on the St. Louis Americans from 1911 to 1917. Burt was with Washington in 1918 and then went to the St. Louis Cardinals where he remained until he took up the managership of the Syracuse Inter- national league team about three years ago.

HERMAN ONCE CASTOFF
 NOW LEADING HITTER

MINNEAPOLIS, July 22.-When Minneapolis parted with Johnny Butler for seven Brooklyn players in 1925 Babe Herman was one of the new men who failed to make the grade with the Millers.
 Now Butler, after losing out with the Dodgers and then with the Cubs, has drifted back to Minne- apolis, while Herman is leading the National league hitters.
 Herman, then representing him. self as a first baseman, remain ed with the local club no longer than the spring training season and was returned to Brooklyn, where he finally was given a chance to loaf in the outfield between times at bat. The Babe promptly made good.

GaStineau Cnannei League
COAST LEAGUE SPLIT
 RESULT OF DULLNESS

SAN FRANCISCO. July 22.-A Bush League" flavor is preferred to a $200,0OO attendance decrease to directors of the Pacific Coast league.
 This was evidenced in a belated return to the split season, an idea abandoned last winter after a trial in 1928.
 The league moguls pocketed the heavy gate receipts last year but gave the split season the lair" be- cause it seemed small townish." " This season, the entire circuit was in financial doldrums when the decision to split was reached.
 The San Francisco Mission Reds won the first half of the 1929 sea- son and will meet the second half winner in post-season seven game series for the championship.
 A purse of $10,O00 will be dis tributed among the pennant win ners, the runner-up and the next three high teams.

 His father, Jesse Burkett, was one of the great hitters of the games early days as an outfield- CT for St. Louis and Cleveland of the American League. The old Burkett hit 400 or better in 1895, '96 and '99.
 In his second season in the Pa- cific Coast league young Burkett is showing fine form as an in fielder but is considerably lower than his dad at the plate with an average lowering between .226 and .246.
