One other Southern team had an

The only other inter-sectional

Even in its early stages Catarrh is a most distressing complaint,
known by its symptoms of stuffy feeling in the head and nose, roaring in
the ears, mucus in the throat, difficult breathing, etc. When the blood be

to the bronchial tubes, causing hoarseness and often an aggravating cough
the stomach is affected, resulting in dyspepsia, loss of appetite, and grad

S. S. S. cures Catarrh by cleansing the blood of all

“There is this about it, the Van

knowing that the whole South is

\I7ALTER CAMP believes that
light elevens have a chance
this year. Says the dean of foot
ball experts:
"The best attack will be the one
that combines shift players, which
will necessarily put the defense in
motion, with regular plays. In this
way not only will plunges through
the line be effective, but also great
c: effect w ill be given to the end or
the run outside tackle. If a team
allows its opponent to realize that
the attack is concentrated, and that
the pays all must -tart from a
comparatively small radius behind
the line, those opponents will close
up and render such a form of at
tack extremely onerous and ex
hausting."

TECH SCORES IT
TcMTISf 3
THE Yellow Jackets wound up the
week’s work Wednesday afternoon
with the hardest scrimmage of the
season, and if that scrimmage is a fair
indication of what will be done Satur
day, Florida will not have as easy a
time defeating the Techites as they
imagine.
The varsity scored five touchdowns
on the scrubs, and most of the ground
gained was on straight line bucks. Not
a single forward pass was pulled off.
Team Has Several Cripples.
Moore is still out of the game, and
may not be able to play Saturday. This
will be a blow to Tech, as Moore is a
good ground gainer,. plays well on de
fense and is an all-around good man.
He is not definitely out of it yet. In
the next few days he may show an im
provement sufficient to warrant his
playing. /
1 ook lias not been able to scrimmage
this week, on account of a slight "char
ley horse,” but will be in good shape by
the time of the game, and will surely
play.
Loeb is still out on account of his an
kle, and may not be in condition by Sat
urday. Since he has been out Welchcl
is playing the center place with good
results.
New Men Doing Well,
Goebel, from Savannah High school,
is playing one of the halves, and is
showing up well. He is a good line
bucker. and also runs with the ball in
good style.
Montague, who is captain of next
year's baseball team, is playing foot
ball this year and is sure to make a
regular place on the big team. He is
being played at tackle, and handles the
job in jam-up style. He is rather light
for a lineman, but he tackles hard and
charges low, and these qualities over
come his lack of weight.
As a whole, the team is working well
together, and with the remaining two
days for signal practice they should be
running a« smooth as a top.

This game Saturday in Jackson

Johnny Evers WILL Manage Cubs Next Season
"r*-!*
Owner Murphy Likens Him to “Muggsy” McGra I
By Edward -J. Geiger.
HICAGO. Oct. 24.—Johnny
Evers, crack second baseman
of the Cubs and one of the
best sackers the game can boast of.
is to manage the West Side organ
ization during 1913, if no longer.
Charles W. Murphy, owner of
the Chicago National league club,
after a careful study of all the
available material for the manage
rial berth, decided on Evers and
closed with the fighting youngster.
This puts to rest all the guesswork
and mystery connected with the
question that has been in every
mouth. "Who will take Frank
Chance’s place as the leader of the
Cubs?”
Murphy is not the author of this
information, and he may deny the
above. Johnny Evers also may. for
he has been pledged to secrecy, but
no matter what stand either the
magnate or the player may take,
the above statement is true, and if
Murphy does not admit it now or
before November 1, the date on
which he* says he will make the
name of the new manager public,
he will eventually confirm it.
Likens Evers to McGraw.
The Cubs' boss believes that in
Evers he has a second John “Mugg
sy" McGraw, and the loader of the
New York Giants is his ideal of a
manager. It is chiefly because of
this that he selected Evers to man
age the Cubs next year, though this
is but one of his reasons.
Murphy is firmly of the belief
that Johnny is heart and soul irv
the game, that he is fighting for
the interests of the club at all times
and that when he is put out of the
play by the umpires it is not the
desire to have his say or to get into
the spotlight, but because he is
fighting to win. That's the stuff
that lias made McGraw famous,
and that’s the stuff Murphy says
wins pennants and swells the box
office receipts.
John is popular with the fans
and players, has youth, is a good
batter, fast on the bases and on
the field, and above all is a won
derfully fast thinker. This has
been something that Murphy has
admired in Evers for years, and it
has eventually’ brought its reward.
The Cub owner argues that he is a
good judge of players, has remark
ably good judgment and seems to
grasp critical situations the mo
ment they come up. And tvith all
his quickness of thought. Murphy
says Evers never leaps before he
looks. In other words, he always
thinks before he speaks, and once
he has spoken he is firm. He pos
sesses more than the average
amount of intelligence.
Merkle Play Aids Johnny.
Charles Webb has always been a
strong admirer of Evers, and John
ny has been very friendly with the
boss Two other things that stand
out prominently in Murphy's rea
sons for naming Evers are that it
was John who discovered Heine
Zimmerman, and because Evers'
quick thinking helped win the
pennant for the West aid
ers when the Trojan discovered
that Merkle, of the Giants failed
to touch second in the play of 19<tS.
Murphy believes that though Ev
ers is only 29 years old. thus mak
ing him the youngest manage) in
either league, lie w 111 feel the weight
of the responsibility placed on his
shoulders and will handle the team
in a manner which is to Murphy’s
liking and that 1913 will see the
Cubs winners Evers and Murphy
were brought together to discuss
tin matte, at the opening of the
•itv series. They «p< tv several
bouts together going over the de
tails.
Though satisfied that Johnny
SIX REASONS
WHY MURPHY
PICKED EVERS
—— <
NEAREST type of manager to
Muggsy McGraw.
QUICKEST thinker in baseball
game.
GOOD judge of players, discov
erer of Zimmerman.
HEART and soul in club and atwaya
fighting.
FAST man on bases and field and
grand hitter.
HAS youth and popularity and firm
mind.
would fill the requirements, Mur
phy wanted to make sure that John
would live up to all agreements
and the questioning began- First,
Murphy' w’anted to know If Johnny
would move to Chicago so he could
be in touch with the bosa the year
around. Charles is opposed to hav
ing a manager who spends the win
ter months away from the club. He
believes a manager should put in at
least 300 days of the year in the
interests of the organization.
Manager Must Be WHh Boes.
Then he wanted to assure him
self that Evers would look to his
interests more than those of the
players, making It clear, however,
that be did not want any of the
men slighted unless a slight was
necessary. He wanted to learn
whether Evers was Indebted to
anybody on the team and if it be
came necessary, if he tvould sus
pend Zimmerman and Archer just
as readily as the would Saier or
some other member of the club. All
these things Evers assured him of
and the pair shook hands and
closed the bargain.
Just w'hat salary will go with the
job is not known, but this is a
minor detail. Evers is to put hts
John Hancock to a five-year con
tract, but in the agi-eement Mur
phy reserves the right to diapla.ee
him as manager at the end of the
first year, should he fail to live up
to the boss’ ideas of a manager.
Full Sway For New Leader.
And with the taking bold of th*
team. Evers has been given full
sway. There are no ropes tied.to
him and he can sell or trade any
man on the team he sees fit. Os
course, this does not mean that he
could release Aicher or the real
stars, but such talk is out of the
question. Evers is going to make a
desperate attempt to put over a
winner, and will let go only such
players who have outlived their
usefulness on the Cub team. But
tome shifts are to be made, and It
is dollars to doughnuts that several
new men will be seen in Cub uni
forms next year.
Evers has already decided to quit
