NKW TORK, Aug. 10 U. P.) Inter
ference from the -office" resulted
this year In the mid-sesson discharge of
two major league managers.
Tne release of BIB Donovan and John
rty Evere brought up again the discus
sion of the wisdom of club owners med
dling in the actual management of the
team
uwners of. big-moneyed ventures like
a major league ball club cannot - be
blamed for wanting to have something to
ay about the handling of the players on
the field, but the fact- remains that the
real successful club owners leave it all to
their managers, ,
HAVAGKKB KJIOrT f ; -
Officers of the three metronolltan
teams can give information about the
ages, residences and records of their
players, but as to the actual handling
of the club, the owners of the Giants.
Tanks and Robins always refer Ques
tioners to their managers.
Trts Speaker rubs the champion In
dians himself. Barney Dreyfuss at
tends only to the business end of the
Pittsburg Pirates and lets George Gib
son handle the club, - George Grant
treats Fred Mitchell the same way in
Boston.' Clarke . Griffith retired last
winter and turned the 'management 01
the Senators over to George McBrtae.
It was said then that be would be un
able to "keep his nose Out of it" after
being so lour In 'active connection with
the game. But McBrlda runs the team
5 Tb St. Louis Browns are "office
managed, and the Cincinnati Reds
used to be under the hand of a, board
of directors. Pat lloran has changed
a lot of that, however. ?
BTOBB CXASeESt i
The trend in tne major leagues seems
to be back to the playing manager. Buo
cess achieved by Trie Speaker and Ty
Cobb evidently has brought about the
belief that a good, playing manager ts
not Only a sound business) propositloa
but an inspiration to a team. .

is being advanced aa a candidate tor

Speaker. Cobb, Kllllfer , and Peckin
paugh can not only tell players what
to do, but they can show them bow to
go out and dd it, - That ts the main
requisite of a playing manager. - -

SOMB fast games were 'pulled off In
the Inter-Stat Baseball associa
tion last Sunday with all oiubs running
true to form. , The
Standard Oil-Wool
en Mills game drew
a large share of
fans out to Sell
wood park and
they were not dis
appointed, as they
witnessed a battle
royal. The Wfcod

game was also
played at Sellwood
park. Both games
were hotly con
tested and the win
ners decided only
when the last man was out MontaviUa
fans played In hard luck ss with the
Montavilla club on the grounds for two
scheduled games, both of Its opponents
failed to show up. A crowd of .fully
2000 fans re on hand and were turned
back very much disappointed. Columbia
park fans turned out en masse for the
games there and they were amply re
paid for their interest In- the game by
the eioee match staged between Nleolal
Door and the Legion-Vets.
South Parkway obtained sweet- re
venge for the two trimming handed
them by Brooklyn' when they turned the
tables and gave a - good drubbing ta
Brooklyn last Sunday. The whole club
worked well behind the able pitching
of "Lefty Schwarts. Parkway has
been winning regularly of lata and has
reversed the dope in the last few con
tests. Wledler has been playing a steady
game at short and makes 'few bobbles,
Rogoway, alongside of him at second,
is fast as a streak and cuts down hard
drives over second in every game. .
Weodlawn Is a greatly improved bau
club the last few Weeks and Is making
ail the clubs step fast to keep Up. Man
ager Hunter ticked up a nice looking
prospect In Korhonen and his hurling
has been high class in the two games
he has worked. Sheasley is an able re
ceived and la greatly responsible for
the steadiness Korhonen has shown
sines joining Woodlawn.

grounds for protest over its gam with

last Sunday. Mo point of rules was In
volved In entering the protest and It Is
hard to see why the matter was brought
up. Ed Rankin and Ray Kennedy, two
of the best umpires in the. state, handled
the game, and both are emphatic. In declaring-
that the cwme was cleanly played

Both clubs have played exoeptionally

"When a man of my build gets up

at 110 pounds. It's time for him to get
Into a gymnasium end go to work. I
waa that way a few months ago, and 1
feu terrible. Today 1 feel like a 3-year
hold again."
Mike Gibbons was speaking. The St
Paul flstlo marvel was telling now It
happened that he earns back to tha ring
after telling tha world that be -waa
through. .
"I thought Ijhad enough of boxing
when I announced my retirement." Mloh
ael continued. "I honestly believed that
I was ready to quit the ring. I have my
family, some business enterprises, a aloe
home and some bunting end fishing acres

was slow to get out of condition. But
finally tha fat of Idleness begad to grow

and pudgy. Then it all came to me.
Keeping In condition had been such a
habit for so many years that I required
exercise to keep feeling fit. So J went
back to work. - s .
"At first 1 did AM intend to return to
the ring. My one aim was to get to feel

"I have always aoveted that title. I
have been rated by many critics as one

I haven't loot all tha snap to my punches,
either. So I'm golag to win that crown
If I can.. I'd like to wind up my ring
career as a champion, or with the record
of having been a champion."
BOTH APTETa TITLtS - '
Gibbons, like his brother Tom. is one
of the most retiring and least boastful
boxers this country has ever proaucea.
Tha Gibbons bora believe that actions la
the ring speak - lota louder than words
autside of it. and they work on that
theory. .
AnS vAti don't sea a ease like that In
the Gibbons family every day. Hera we
have two brothers Mike, at tha age of
