Will Fred Clark manage the Pitts
burg baseball club next year? Iu some
quarters there prevails the belief that
Clarke Is about to retire from the
game to his ranch and flour mill in
the Sunflower state.
Fred's contract as manager of the
Pittsburg club expires this year. It Is
not known whether he will renew it
or not. It was believed when he last
signed that the document was a two
year affair. It wasn't; it was for one
year only until 'the end of the 1912
season.
. . It Is believed the greatest left fielder
that ever lived is growing tired that
he is becoming wearied of the hurly
burly life of baseball that he be
lieves the time has come when he
should settle down with his family to
enjoy the good things his many stren
uous years of endeavor on the base
ball diamond have earned for him.
Clarke cannot achieve greater honors
than are his. He has shown himself
to be one of the great leaders of base
ball; he has won pennants and also a
world's championship. No greater re
ward exists for the baseball manager.
Clarke has been at the head of the
great Pittsburg club since 1901 when,
with Wagner, Phillippe, Leach and
other stars, he came from Louisville,
the Colonels being transferred bodily
to the Smoky City. .. He has made a
name for himself a name that will
live as long as baseball lives. He has
made his team a team that has been
feared by all others a team which has
always been np front in the National
league race.
' . But. all things must come to an end.
So must Fred Clarke's tenure of offlec
as manager of the Pittsburg club be
concluded some day. Fred is now past
forty and a wealthy man. His wife has
been urging him for years to quit the
diamond life and settle down. When
asked by a baseball scribe the other
day as to whether or not he was to re-
lire ciarKe was evasive, finally ne
Stated in reply to the reporter's re
peated Inquiries that he might and he
might not. This was all that could be
learned from him.
Much speculation is being Indulged
In by the baseball fans of Pittsburg
and other cities as to who would be
Clarke's successor in the event of his
retirement. Some pick Hans Wagner.
They base their supposition on the
fact that Hans is slowly, but. surely
going back and that a berth as leader
of a National league club would be
guns. It was only the other day that
Johnny McGraw declared that old
Honus was still the best ball player
on the diamond and McGraw knows a
good'player about as well as any one
connected with the game possibly a
little better.

lust to his liking. Others assert that

knd, furthermore, that it will be some
time before it will be necessary for
the Pirate star to quit the diamond,

games of his career. He was a little

SOUTHPAWS ARE UNCERTAIN
Exception Taken to Statement by New
York Writer Case of "Doc" White
and Others Cited.
A writer in the New York Telegram
takes issue with the statement that
left-handed pitchers are an uncertain
lot and never have-two good seasons
in succession, and says: "That's just
about as far from the truth as several
other recent observations which have
been made. How about. Waddell as a
left-hander who was consistently
good?' Derby was one, Kilroy was one.
Ramsey was one. Lady Baldwin was.
one, Richmond was one, Breitensteln
