Chance Manager
By James G. Lester.
(Secretary Atlanta Clearing House
and an Old-time Fan.)
I HAVEN’T much to say about
my team. The line-up shows
what it would be worth on the
diamond. But I believe that it
could beat any other aggregation
that could be picked and stacked
against it. And I have been watch
ing baseball for well over 30 years,
too.
I.have always been a great ad
mirer of Frank Chance and the
Cubs. I am sure that Chance is
the greatest leader that ever lived
and that is why 1 pick him as
manager of my All-Star team.
Speaker. -Inckson and Cobb are
in a class by themselves, although
l-'rcd Clarke, of the Pirates, when
at his best, would give any one of
them a hard fight.
Daubert today is the greatest
first baseman. I think he has Ihe
edge mt Hal Chase, of the Yankees,
right now. And I am .-tire that in
another couple of years Daubert
will have improved his game a
whole lot. Collins Is a remarkable
st cond baseman. although he hasn’t
very much on Lajoie. Wagner and
Baker ale. without any doubt, the
greatest infielders to the left of the
keystone.
Archer and Meyers are a pair of
catchers that can’t be beat. Rucker
and Johnson are the greatest left
and light-hand pitchers that ever
worked

by Tommy Atkins for the Cracker club
and farmed by the Crackers first in Rome
and later in the Sally league, will be re

Wolfe was a semi-pro picked up off the

and Wolfe will don a Cracker uniform
