JOE MCCARTHY
HIGHEST PAID
BALL MANAGER

NEW YORK. Sept. %. -U.Pl-
TIght-lipped, square -jawed Joseph
Vincent Mccarthy is the highest
paid manager in baseball, the tough
est loser and the champion hunch-
player.
Mccarthy draws a salary of S35,-
600 per season as manager of the
New York Yankees. He has been
in baseball % of his 49 years. and a
manager for II seasons, although
he never played in the majors. He
has saved his money and invested
1t well. He could quit baseball after
the world series and live the rest Of
his life in comfort at his home IN
Buffalo. if he chose.
He takes defeat harder than any
manager in the majors. He does not
rant and fave, give his players
tongue lashings and see red" But
he cannot get a defeat out of his
system. He will lie awake nights
playing over and over a game that
his team lost.
Mccarthy takes few persons into
his confidence. He seldom criticizes
anyone, and rarely does he call a
player to task without first thinking
it over twice.
Col. Jacob Rubpert, owner of the
Yankees, called Mccarthy team
builder" when he gave him new
contract When Rupert re-hired
Mccarthy he had to choose between
him and Babe Ruth. He didn't hes
itate in making the selection.
In handling men, Mccarthy has
few superiors. He convinced Lou
Gehrig he was the greatest ball
player of all time, and inspired him
to stage his great comeback this
season. He took Pat Malone when
no one else would have him and
helped him regain his form of the
old Cub days. He developed the
cast-off, Bump Hadley, into a win
ner. He handles each player differ
emily. Two notable cases of players
he couldn't control are Ben Chap.
man and Johnny Allen, SO he got
rid of them.
McCarthy's hobbies are vaudeville
and magic. He's a walking Who's
Who of Vaudeville" He knows all
the old vaudeville actors, their songs
patter and routines He has seen all
of the great magicians Of the past
25 years perform, stuiied them, and
mastered many Of their tricks. His
favorites were Houdini and Thur
Ston.

BY A. J. DRISCOLL
Citizens Associations Editor


The Conduit Road Citizens AS
ISOLATION at a meeting last night
in the new Palisades Field House
pledged support for repeal Of the
law which grants outside children

the association by Mrs. M. o.
Hayes, chairman of the school

school buildings and higher taxes.

elimination of the Glen Echo
Cabin John street car line and
substitute one of buses.
Endorsement was given letter
from the Bradbury Heights Citi-
zens Association urging District
firemen be placed on an eight
hour shift.
c. E. MCGEE, president of the
D. C. Fire Fighters Association,
said it would require 528 additional
men and an expenditure of at
least $1,245,000 to put the plan in
effect.

Parent Teachers Association in an
effort to encourage wider use of
the Palisades Field House.
