4 THE SUNDAY STAR, WASHINGTON, D. (., JULY 19, 1925—SPORTS SECTION. Harris and McGraw Both Hail Era of Playing Managers in the Major Leagues BIG LEAGUE AVERAGES Including Games of Thursday VALUE OF ACTIVE PILOTS NOT REDUCED BY WORRIES Bucky Points Ouf That Only One of Nine Active Per- formers Now Directing Clubs Is Below the .300 Mark in Batting Averages. BY STANLEY HARRIS, Manager and Second Baseman, World Chumplon Washington Club. LEVELAND, July 18—This seems to be the day of the playing man- ‘ ager. Rabbit Maranville's appointment as leader of the Cubs brings the number of active players who are handling major league clubs up to nine. There are five of us in the American League and four in the National In the old days the manager was supposed to be a player, but then came the period when there were few active players acting as pilots. The theory at the time was that a man who had to take his turn at bat and in the field was bothered by managerial cares, and, consequently, of less value to his club as a player. Now it looks as if the pendulum had swung the other way. At the same time, the records up to date would indicate that neither the batting nor ficlding average of a player is affected in an adverse way because of the cares and responsibilities of directing the field tactics of a chub and handling the players. In fact, it looks as if some of the present crop of managers are better players because they have to set an example for their teammates. In any cvent, there certainly has been no slump in the batting or fielding matrks of the club leaders.

Only Maranville Is Trailing. Maranville is the only National League manager hitting under 301 He never has been noted as a_heav hitter, but he probably would be bet ter off in the averages if he had been in the game from the start of the sea n. His best average was made in 1922 when he hit .295. Unless they have a big slump be- tween now and the end of the season | the major league managers should do fact, he has been there ever since he has been a regular in the majors. That's a mark for some of the up and coming players to shoot at Eddie Collins is another veteran among the American League mana- gers who Is having a great year at bat and in the field. He is batting well up in the .300 class in the latest averages 1 huve seen seasons have seen the W in the select circle.

The trout, or weaktish, so called because of their tender mouth, usually put in their appearance between July 15 and 20 gnd leave when the cold weather sets in But this season they arrived ahead of schedule, and already some good cafches have been reported. Last Sunday, fishing at Piney Point, a party caught about 150 of these game fish. True, none of them were big ones, but they ranged from 1 te 2 pounds.

Some fine specimens were caught in boats at Herring Bay and in front of the Beach. Some of the larger rock have also been caught by both the day and night fishermen. Reports as to hardheads show that they are being supplanted very rapid- 1y by the rock and trout. Some of the latter show good size, but not very many have been taken as vet. Up to Friday the weather both day and night had been rather hot for success- ful fishing. It does seem that all con- ditions at the bayside have undergone remarkable changes, which have had a marked bearing on fishing. These conditions have also played havoc with the crabbing, for the appearanee of a crab in the water this Summer has been regarded as something of a curiosity. Not a person has been seen laboring along under a load of crabs and the fishermen have been spared, for once, annoyance from the crab. However, the small shiner, not larger than one’s little finger, has been in the limelight for persistence in taking the bait intended for the rock, trout or hardhead.
