That team was V. P I. And the Virginia “Polys" were tremendously tronneed at Princeton. The only other Inter-eectlonal game of interest this year is that between Harvard and Vanderbilt.

M’GUGIN THINKS VANDERBILT TEAM HAS GOOD CHANCE When McGugin was in Atlanta Saturday he was asked about the Vanderbilt-Harvard game. “You can’t tell much about it, ex cept that Harvard has a tremen dously strong team,’’ said Dan. “There is thia about it, the Van derbilt men will go to Cambridge! knowing that the whole South is pulling for them —that the football honors of the whole South depend on them. They will also feel that they are just as good men as were ever grown, and that they know just as much football as anybody. This will make a difference.” brilliant as Hardage and Collins If Harvard Is to run up a credit able, score against Vanderbilt it must do It by the strength of its line -must show more power and drive. And verily the Cambridge men are strong In the line.

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 fence, 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. Cook has not been able to scrimmage this week, on account of a slight “char leyhorse," but will be in good shape bt 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 Welchel 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 ttr make a regular place on the big team. He Is being played at tackle, and handles the job in jam-sip style. He is rather light' for a lineman, but he tackles hard and charges low, and these qualities over come his la> k 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. Tech Anxious To Win. This game Saturday in Jackson ville means a great deal -to the Tech t'am. and Coac+t Heisman is spar ing no pains to get the launch primed for the event.

Johnny Evers WILL Manage Cubs Next Seasol p Owner Murphy Likens Him to “Muggsy” McGra J By Edward J. Geiger. CHICAGO. 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 gtudy 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 leader 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 in Ute 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 has made McGraw famo.'s, and that's the stuff Murphy say 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 year?, 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 with 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 th;<i| the average amount of intelligence. Merkle Play Aids Johnny, t'harle- Webb lias always been a strong admirer of Evers, and John ny has been very friendly with tne boss. Two other things that stand out prominently in Murphy's rea sons for naming Evers are that it was John who Heine Zimmel man. and because Evers' quick thinking helped win the pennant for •the West ' Sid ers when tile Trojan discovered that Merkle, of the Giants, failed to touch second in Hie play of Isos, Murphy believes that though Ev ers is only 29 years old, thus mak ing him the youngest manager in either league, lie will 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 the matter at the opening of the city series. They spent several hours 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 always 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 wpuld live up to all agreements and the questioning began. First. Murphy wanted to know if Johnny would move to Chicago so he could - be in touch with the boss the yehr around. Charles is opposed to hav ing a manager who spends the win ter, months away front 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 With Boss. 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 he 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 would 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 what salary will go with the job is not- known, but this is a minor detail. Evers is to put his John Hancock to a five-year con tract, but. in the agreement Mur phy reserves the right to displace him as manager at the end of the first yepr. should he fail to live up to the boss' ideas of a manager. Full Sway For New Leader. And with the taking hold of the 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 Archer 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 some shifts ate to be made, and it is dollars to doughnuts that several new men will be seren in Cub uni forms next year. Evers has already decided to quit LIKE NIAGic old shoes | f „ 9O :- J SEWED SOLES AiiPHEELS WJHX , pW AIL WORK CALLED EOR. AND DELIVERED ___ yB E sT US oL i ' 1 'U Troy. N.
