BY JOHN B. FOSTER: v # CHAPTER VIIL T is the duty of the manager to be of as much help as possible to the captain in keeping up the spirits of the players. This, of course, is where the manager and the.captiin are not the same person. The boy who aspires to be the manager of his team must not think that because it is a boys' team it is different in many of its aspects from a man's team. Boys like a word of good cheer and cncouragement as much as men like it. Some players go along twice as well if they have encouragement. When a boy makes a particularly good hit or cateh he likes to think fhat others have noticed it and fometimes it takes the diserimina- tion of others to note when a good play ha been made, because some boys are so diffident that they say little about themselves. ‘ The manager of the team shoul not criticise the players when there is a captain. Let all the eriticism come from one source, and when there i a coach, as happens now and then for some teams of boys, the cogeh probably will do the eriticiz- ing for everybody. Not even the captain will care to undertake much of it. Shirkers Hurt Team Spirit. If it is the duty of the manager to see that the players are notified wherl to appear, presuming, of course, that the manager and the captain are both one, it also is the duty of the manager to find out why they do not _ap t they miss: their club appointments. The affairs of the ¢lub must be co-operative and every- body must do his best if the team is to be u success on the fieMd. 1f some n to shirk meetings and hings of that kind the vers will voice their dis- satisfaction and the team make little headway against its base ball rivals. The manager of the team also se. leots umpires. He may oo-operate with the captain in that respect. but usually the captain lets the man- ager have the final decision in order that the other team may not say the captain has too much influence with the umpire. In general, when se- lecting an umpire for a ‘game it Is » to name some one who is the boys who are play- if possibie, select one who nee. knack in handling by an umpire as pitching one well.

The reg- ular umpire missed the train, and a boy only fifteen years of age who had umpired local games very well was asked to judge the plays. The big league players laughed at him when he came out on the fleld and they saw how small he was, compared with them. but he handled that game been @ major league was over, stood at one side and watched him with Interest. When the game finished the captain of the Clevelands said that he never had plaved in a game which was better handled, and nominated the youngster for a major league umpire, but the boy’'s thoughts did not incline that way.
