Evers, Named Cub Manager,
Will Enforce “Prohi” Ruling
C 5 HICAGO, Oct. 25. —Johnny Ev
ers, who has signed a five
year contract with President
Muil'hy to manage the Cubs, to
..j, -red Frank Chance, announced
that he would enforce Mur
p ■- rule prohibiting drinking
iniong the players.
Evers also said there would be
ma".v big trades this winter among
the teams, but refused to outline
what players would be involved in
them.
That Tinker will be the next
manager of the Cincinnati team,
E- -rs evidently believes, because
the most of his talk about trades
evolves the finding of a new short
stop
Ev rs will keep his home in Troy,
\ Y . until February, when he
at - to come to Chicago to reside
permanently.
Announcement No Surprise.
T. e formal announcement that
E\ - s was to manage the Cubs
i,:-,.ved anything but a surprise. It
■as been felt for a long time that
Eve. s was Charley Murphy’s choice
ano of course, it was apparent
~t Evers would not refuse the
honoi s if they were thrust at him.
Ewrs ought to be a great suc
at the job. He knows baseball
srf. should be able to keep his team
n band. He is married, has a fam
ily and lias clean habits. He is
popular in all of the National
league cities and is as well liked in
Xe v York as he is in Chicago, this
pite the fact that in 1908 his
quick thinkihg robbed the Giants of

it Evers never takes on much

“Big Black 4” Not Improving;
White Champion Due Ere Long
Bv Left Hook.
I"'' VER since Jim Jeffries was
defeated by Jack Johnson at
Reno. Nev., on July 4, 1910,
t-ie.e has been a world-wide search
f ir a white 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
no can defeat Langford, Jeanette
or McVey.
This leaves the colored race in
complete control of the heavy
weight class. 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, tiie
;ite mitt wielders reign supreme.
Tit> re isn't a colored bantamweight,
• :tiierweight. lightweight, welter
weight or middleweight worthy of
■ titlmi. Joe Gans, the old master
ot the ring, was the last negro
boxer of note outside of the heavy
■ ' ig it division.
There are many lovers of the
manly ait who believe that a ne
gro will hold the heavyweight
trown for years to come. Person
ally. however, I believe that they
ire mistaken.
<B • •
JI.’ST 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
Langford or Jeanette. Either of
these men might be able to defeat
him.
There has not been any new ne
uro heavyweights developed during
the past six years. The result will
be that inside of three or four
years, and possibly sooner, the
“resent crop of colored boxers will
ho forced to succumb before Father
lime. And there will be nobody
to fill their places.
hhe white heavyweights will then
■mm- 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.

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
head of ti;e 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
C hance. Evers carries convincing
arguments. Murphy declares, has
the courage to go into the thick of
the fight and fight for right and
that hs will keep alive the fighting
spirit that Frank Chance instilled
in th* 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.
“M e 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 praise for the P. L.
and bo did his work nobly. But he
informed me he would rather not
handle the team, so I 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 I 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 hell
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
1 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 bask
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 & Co. had then better
seek cover.
ALABAMA WORKS DAY AND
NIGHT; TO PLAY GA. NEXT
UNIVERSITY OF ALABAMA. Oct. 25.
The Alabama team left Tuscaloosa this
morning for Columbus, Ga.. where they
meet the University of Georgia on Satur
day afternoon.
With the many changes in the line-up
and with the additional help Derrill T’ratt
has given with the coaching Alabama
should make a fairly good showing against
the Georgians.
Coach Graves has had his men hard at
work the entire week, scrimmaging every
day and running signals at night.
No line-up has been given out. but it is
more than probable that Nathan will
supplant Joplin at quarter and that Geor
gia will Have to contend with three Van
iletgraffs instead of two, as heretofore, as
the youngest ot the trio has been added
to the squad after his brillaint showing
in the Mississippi A. & M. game last Fri
day.
The supporters of the Crimson and
Whit* will be satisfied with a score the
same as that last year when Georgia
won, 16 to 5.
