TWO MANAGERS ARE ALIKE

BT CHRISTT JIATHEWSON.
The GimnW Famous Pitcher.
GULFPORT, Mass.. April 7. (Spe
cial.) In the big leagues enmities de
velop for one reason or another be
tween players, managers and umpires,
and they live long. I could go back
through baseball and point to many
feuds but those of recent date might
be termed, as the lawyers do their
quarrels. Hcrzog versus McGraw, Stall
ings versus Marie and McGraw versus
-Hank" O Dav. You see. McGraw leads
this list for his name appears twice.
One of the bitterest of these late
feuds is between Herzog and McGraw.
and, oddly enough, the two men are
strangely alike in many respects. Both
re fiery and each hustles and strives
to the limit for every point, even in
exhibition games. As managers, they
are similar. Yet whenever the Beds
and the Giants meet yon can count on
a running fire of conversation be
tween Managers "Herzie" and -"Mac."
Both are pretty fast on the tongue, too.
HtrK et Publicity.
A friend of mine- who had seen Her
rog in the South, at Mobile recently,
told me the Cincinnati manager was
growing more like McGraw in his
methods and manner every day. It is
not an unusual thing that two men.
who are similar in temperament and
methods, should be at swords' points.
Here is an incident which reflects the
resemblance. - The row between Her
zog and Stevens, the secretary of the
Cincinnati club, who desired "Herzie"
to play at Covington, where "Charlie"
declared the diamond was not fit at
rrtA rnnaiderable newsaper comment
on the front pages in spite of the fact
the European war was raging.
it- the first time in 12 years,
"rrcrzle" nrorfdly boasted to this
frionri of mine, "that the Cincinnati
team has been on the front page of
the newspapers. This, at least, gives
It a," little color. That s what I want
f n have. I want folks to know we
are alive. There were trees growing
liy the outfield of that diamond at
Covington, La., and the ground was
as hard as pavement. Thert were only
two shower baths for 27 men. Would
any manager with sense take a chance
like that? A contract had been made
with a hotel for the club to stop there
five din. but I couldn't help that. It
was a ridiculous agreement."
Old Grievance Aired.
McGraw and Herzog have the same
resemblance in the manner in wnicn
they handle their ball clubs, but there
ta a grievance between them. Birds
of a feather don't seem to flock to
gether. The soreness is on Herzog's
side. He feela bitter because he did
not play third base regularly on the
Giants during the last season he was
with the team.
"You see," ays . Herzog, "Shafer
threatened to quit the club in the mid
dle of the season because, as I under
stand it, he did not want to play cen
ter field, where he had been working,
feeling that he was taking the Job
away from his beet friend on the club,
Snodgrass. . Shafer was on the square
about going back . to California. and
lie had his railroad ticket bought, and
had even shipped away'his automobile,
llr. Hempstead, the president of the
club, and Harry McCormick, who was
Shafer's roommate, went down to the
station and induced Shafer to change
his mind and stick. I believe it was
on the condition that Snodgrass got
his old Job in center field back and
that Shafer himself was to have a reg
ular position.
Heroic Gets Revenge.
"I had always hustled for McGraw.
and Shafer went to third base in my
place. At last 'Mac' was thrown down
,r him. anyway, and I believe the
Giants would have won the champion
ship last season if they had had an
experienced third baseman. It served
McGraw right. I know my club played
its head off every time we went up
against the Giants, and we took seven
MraiKht games from them when those
Fames would have looked pretty good
Jn their 'win' column. It was Just at
the time they were fighting Boston so
hard. It gave their pennant hopes
some kick. McGraw knows why I am
Fore. Anybody 'hatee to be put out of
his regular Job after hustling hard
for a manager."
And that's how Herzog feels about
it. The acoustics of the Polo grounds
and the Reds' field. Redland, will
probably be tested again this season,
for baseball feuds die as hard as those
raised on the soil of old Kentuck.
Sidelights and Satire

GEORGE DAMEREI one of the

cerns a scream alibi by Heinle Zim
merman. Chicago Cub's thirdsacker. It
occurred late in 1908 when the Cubs
and Giants were battling for the cham
pionship. The score was 0-0 in the
fifth, when Tinker drove the ball a
mile to center. Zimmerman was
coaching at third. As Tinker started
around third Heinle ran out tackled
him and threw him to the ground.
Tinker glanced around, saw the ball
start in and, shaking loose, tore home
with the winning run, 1-0. Frank
Chance was crazy. He called Heinie
everything in the Esperanto language.
"The sun was in my eyes and I
thought the ball was in the infield,"
was Zim's excuse.
Chance spluttered a bit and then
said:

heard of the sun shining from the

Johnson-Willard fight or not but it's
a safe bet he didn't try on the gloves
with either of the big boys to get a
line on his condition.

cisco boxer and hammer-thrower of
renown, was a great admirer of Jim
Corbett in the early days. Three days
before the Fitzsimroons-Corbett battle
at Carson City. Nev.. March 17, 189,7.
Edgren visited Fitzsimmon's camp and
asked permission to box a few rounds
so as to get the personal touch on
Fitz for his newspaper.

When the new amateur association

There could be but one finish-

reason why one or two amateur box

conduct clean programmes two or
