Watching Th.oir Efforts With Red Sox and Cubs Respectively.

ABIDE from the possibility of tho
next world'n championship
being fought out on the I'olo
Grounds tho greatest Interest in base
ball right now attaches to the two
now managers Jack JJorry and Fred
..,,.
Each league Introduces a new lead
er, and they are so widely different In
personality and their experiences bavo
been bo at varlanoe that all baseball
Is keenly watoblnr the outcome.
Jack Harry Is a muah younger man
than Mitchell and with the exception
of one year ho has always boen on a
championship club. Harry has takon
part In five' world'H championships
nnd never but onoe ban he seen defoat.
That was, tn the fall when the lios
ton I!raYs won four straight. And,
strangely enough, It happened that
Mitchell was on the club that scored
the victor'.
Harry Is a pupil of Connie Mack,
and It Is his purpose to handle thn
Hed Sox as nearly a.i possible llko
Connlo did the Athletics. Ho will bn
a playing manager while Mitchell will
alt on tho bench. An a matter of fact
Fred Mltcholl has not played bull
regularly for several years. He was
an advisory coach while with thn
Uravcs. Ucfore that he was a handy
man for the Yanks.
Mitchell has u big advantage over
Harry in experience. It was his di
recting bruin that won the only two
games cupturnd by thn Ynnks when
they played tho llrst scries with the
Ulnuts Hovcr.il ytur.i ago. Hai.oball
funs who saw that series will novel
forget Mitchell.
It had been the plan to have Ed
Mweeney catch nil tho games, but a
slight accident put him out. Hweeney
