Evers, Named Cub Manager,
Will Enforce “Prohi” Ruling
CHICAGO. Oct. 25.—Johnny Ev
ers. who has signed a five
year contract with President
Murphy to manage the Cubs, to
succeed Prank Chance, announced
~day that he would enforce Mur
■in s rule prohibiting di inking
nong the players.
Evers also said there would be
many big trades this winter among
• e teams, but refused to outline
hat players would be involved In
: bent.
That Tinker will be the next
mager of the Cincinnati team.
Kvers evidently believes, because
the most of his talk about trades
nvolves the finding of a new short
stop.
Evers will keep his home In Troy.
V.. until February, when he
~ans to come to Chicago to reside
■, . rmanently.
Announcement No Surprise.
The formal announcement that
s was to manage the Cubs
1 uved anything but a surprise. It
been felt for a long time that
Evers was Charley Murphy’s choice
ml of course, it was apparent
:.i> Evers would not refuse the
honors If they were thrust at him.
Evers ought to be a great suc
res- at the job. He knows baseball
and should be able to keep his team
1 hand. He is married, has a fam
ily and has clean habits. He Is
popular in all of the National
league cities and is as well liked in
New York as he Is in Chicago, this
h spite the fact that in 1908 his
lick thinking tobbed the Giants of
tin championship when Merkle
failed to touch second. The fact
that Evers never takes on much
eight should enable him to play
“Big Black 4” Not Improving;
White Champion Due Ere Long
By Left Hook.
EVER since Jim Jeffries was
defeated by Jack Johnson at
Reno. Nev., on July 4, 1910.
there has been a world-wide search
for a tyhite heavyweight strong, big
and clever enough to lower the col
ors of the Galveston black. This
search has been unsuccessful. In
fact, no white boxer has been found
who can defeat Langford. Jeanette
or McVey.
This leaves the colored race in
complete control of the heavy
weight cla'ss. If Johnson should
permanently retire from the ring
tomorrow or should he die. the ti
tle would still be held by a negro.
In the other boxing divisions, the
white mitt wielders reign supreme.
There isn't a colored bantamweight,
featherweight, lightweight, welter
weight or middleweight worthy of
mention. Joe Gans, the old master
of the ring, was the last negro
boxer of note outside of the heavy
weight division.
There are many lovers- of the
manly art who believe that a ne
gro will hold the heavyweight
crown for years to come. Person
ally. however, I believe that they
are mistaken.
• • •
T IST now the colored fighters are
J having things pretty near all
their own way. Johnson. Langford.
Jeanette and McVey are masters of
the white heavyweights. Johnson
has wisely Refused to meet either
l.angford or Jeanette. Either of
these men might be able to defeat
him.
There has not been any new ne
uro heavyweights developed during
■ '• past six years The result will
be that inside of three or four
years. and possibly sooner, the
present crop of colored boxers will
lie forced to succumb before Father
Time. And there will be nobody
'o fill their places.
The white heavyweights will then
'"toe in for their own. The alleged
ages of the “Big Four" are as fol
lows:
Johnson. 34 years.
Jeanette, 31 years.
McVey, 27 years.
Langford, 26 years.
* * *
r F HERE are many experts who as-
1 sert that Johnson's real age is
or 38. while some record books
have l.angford down as being 32
'ears of age. Joe Woodman, his
manager, says that Sam is only 26
- ears of age. Re it as it may. Sam
uel has been pastiming with the
'tuared circle for over a decade,
and. although he has won almost
a 1 of his battles, he has neverthe
"ess taken some hard knocks. And
‘■istory proves that punishment
has never lengthened the career of
any ring gladiator.
At the most. Johnson can not
ope to retain hie title for over
two years. He is not physically
•hie to train for a hard battle. He
has admitted himself that he suf
fered a great deal while preparing
for his go with Jeffries, and that
he was on the verge of both a inen
’ •I and a physical breakdown after
■he contest.

the game, for a long time to come
Murphy is of the’ belief that Johnny
will still be in play when he
reaches Hans Wagner's age. and
Honus is close on to 43.
Has Long Reign Ahead.
Johnny being but 29 years old,
should have a long reign at the
bead of the Chicago National league
organization, provided he succeeds.
Murphy Is satisfied that the Trojan
carries the respect of every mem
ber of the team and that they will
play Just as hard for him as they
did for that grand leader. Frank
t hance. Evers carries convincing
arguments. Murphy declares, has
the courage to go into the thick of
the fight and fight for right and
that he will keep alive the fighting
spirit that Frank t'hance instilled
in the team years ago.
Murphy still insists that Chance
practically released himself when
he told him in August that he
would rather not manage the team.
"We must have a manager who is
willing to manage a ball club and
who Is heart and soul in the fight."
said Murphy this morning. "I have
nothing but' ptaise for the P. L.
and he did his work nobly. But he
informed me he would rather not
handle the team, so 1 sought out
a new manager.”
Murphy was asked what would
be done to settle the situation in
volving Chance.
"You can speculate on any deals
you wish to, but 1 do not want to
be quoted as saying anything defi
nite. Chance may be traded and he
may not be. There is a possibility
of his being retained to play utility
infield roles. Further than that. I
have nothing to say.”
wonder in finish fights. You can
knock him down twenty or thirty
times in the first ten or fifteen
rounds of a bout, but he is fighting
just as strong in the twenty-fifth
round as he was when the bell
sounded at the opening of the first
stanza.
Very few athletes attain promi
nence in any line of athletics after
they have passed the one score and
six mark. This is true of track and
field men. baseball players, gridiron
warriors, boxers and other ath
letes.
• • •
THE average athlete is usually at
his best between the ages of
21 and 26. He then holds his own
for a year or two and then starts
down the toboggan. Just now Lang
ford and McVey are holding their
own Neither of these men has Im
proved during the past three years.
They will soon begin to go back
as will Johnson and Jeanette. The
latter are exceptions to the rule,
but they can not hope to stand
the gaff much longer. And. as I
stated 'before, no colored heavy
weights are being developed.
The white heavyweights, on the
other hand, are very active. They
realize that a cool million dollars
is in store for the white boxer who
can become champion of the heavy
weight division. Every hamlet in
the land boasts of a "white hope."
Some day, and it may not be very
long, one of these young huskies is
going to come to the front and
sweep all before him. Johnson,
Langford & Go. had then better
seek cover.
