The candidates are frank chance
(and Jimmy Burke. manager and
coach. respectively. of the Red So:
this season. who have been displscv
ed by Lee Fohl. former St. Louis
,pilot. under the new Boston owner-
ship.

The post which Fohl left at St.
Louis and which Jimmy Austin has
been filling temporarily will be oc-
cupled by George Sisler next semn.
but as yet the “finite Sax and 89m-
tors have signed no new leaders.

Chance, who himself having two
big league offers under consideration.
has been mentioned particularly for
the Washington Job. vacated by Don-
ie Bush. but his name also has been
coupled with the Chicago berth.
where Kid Gleason resigned in dis-
couragement over his club‘s showing
Eddie Collins. Harry Hooper and Ed
Vi’alsh also loom so possible succee-
sors to Gleason. And now that Burke
who formerly was at the helm for
the St. Louis Browns. has been re-
leased, he. 100,, may be in line for
either post.

Both candidates enjoy the favor of
bssebsll followers generally sud
their popularity with Boston Elan-
dam gave rise to much comment as
to the sdvicability of the move by
which they were allowed to leave
that city, Boston baseball experts
agreeing they obtained from inferior
material the best results possible.
There is a further possibility that
one or the other may remain In Bos-
ton as manager of the Braves. Ru~
more persist that President Christy’
Mathewson is to make a change
whereby Manager Fred Mitchell will
be released or asked to assume his
former role of coach of pitching.

Chance or Burke by engaging one, or
the other to assume Mitchell's posi-
tion. George Burns. veteran Cincin-
nati outfielder. also has been report-
ed as a prospective Brsvcs' manager.
