kept his team up to the second place during the whole time he had charge of the managerial reins Having had some disagreement with the club owners Clark left Roanoke and went to Portsmouth where he finished out the season He batted 111 In 1907 and fielded at short for 61 games and 990 at first for 19 gamea While with Columbia 'Clark played at second during the opening two weeks of the season but then went to first which position he played until a short whlls before his Injury Clark's regular position is second base but owing to the fact that he did not have a regular first baseman on the local team he was forced to go to this sack himself and ho played It well his average being around the 990 mark In batting the averages Issued from President Boyer's office up to Avgust 1 these including all games In which Clark played show that Clark was at bat 111 times got 14 hits giving him an average of 247 with the stick He is credited with having stolen 17 bases and fans will recall that one of these was the home plate which station he pilfered right here on the local diamond Clark was not so much of a record hitter as he was a pinch hitter His hits brought In runs Clark made a good run for the rag during the first half of the season be Ing In the second place up to the first week In May when they gave place to the Augusta bunch The Chicks also enjoyed the distinction of

peralatent rumor going the rounds of aporta circles here for the past week that Clark will be signed as manager by the Norfolk team of the Virginia State league next year This rumor can not be verified at this time but as Clark lives near Norfolk and ovmajroperty In the city there may be aomethlng to the deal There are two reasons for not being signed for 1909 One Is the unfortunate fact that he was injured by being stabbed by Bender July 19 This wound while It Is now healing will probably affect Clark's playing during the coming season Another reason given out by the club owners Is that Clark Is not considered fast enough for the Sallie now Be that as It may the big rooster will not wear a Columbia uniform next year Of course the fans will regret to see that the big fellow will not be In the Chick crew when the eight cornered Bailie la under way in 1909 Clark Is well known as a ball player throughout the country and his managerial qualities are up to the standard of any In

fast This la not In defense of Clark but Is merely stating tha thlnga that did happen And as a matter of fact everybody should know that Clark Is a good manager Ha was handicapped because of a late start having been signed after Christmas Clark's strong point In the playing department Is his pinch hitting He rarely failed to get a hit with men on bases and many of the Chicks' victories are partly due to his great stick work It came to be known throughout tho league that it was a dangerous proposition to put the ball any where near the Mg manager when there were men on the eacks and he was passed up a number of times for this reason Win Clark made many friends here during Ms stay In this city that was cut short by his unfortunate affair with Bender All the fens be glad to see him perched well In 1908 Certainly no wiser baseball manager could be found and Clark Is a good man one whom the owners may rely upon In all matters of business and he will look to the Interests of the club he represent Being In touch with the big league managers he la able to dispose of players for a club at good figures and this mean a whole lot these days Win Clark get good Job next year and may he have much Is the wish of the Columbia fans One thing about Clark that many baseball players ran not boast Is this he does not have to play ball to make "i living A few miles out from Nor folk In the fertile vegetable belt of Virginia Clark hen a choice garden spot In Norfolk Clark has a residence very pretty home Bo tho big and gen lei manager of the Chicks Is well fixed When he can no longer frisk around as la days of yore and swat the ball over the lot fence Clark may settle down to life on the farm and dream of the days when he was doped out as the best of them team Aa all know luck did not break ao well for tho star twlrler and In spite of ths fact that one could see with dosed eyes that Jake was a pitcher out of the ordinary class still he did not land as many gamea as some of those In the league who were not half aa good pitchers With this heavy handicap Clark disposed of Vola for $1000 to th Cincinnati dub But before this $3u0 had been Invested In Pitcher Salve and Manlon cost $800 being an outlay of $600 for ball play-era Clark realised at the opening of the season that he did not have as much money ae he would need to buy players but he went ahead and did tha best he could Now see what he got back for tho club The 1000 for Vola was received then Salve brought $754 for tho dub owners Clark could have got at least $1250 for Salve but he was 111 when the trade was made John Wag-non waa sold to Newark In the Eastern league for $450 in the deal between Clark and the Augusta team by which McMahon was traded for Valid the dub made $10: In the deal between Columbia and Norfolk In which Cummings waa received In exchange for Pitcher Danny Friend the dub cleared $50 Thi makes $2850 received for player with an expenditure of only $600 therefor Had the club only broken even on expenses the difference in these two amounts would have been dear profit Clark's work In 1906 showed him to be the star of the Virginia State league Besides holding the Norfolk team to second place in the standing of the dubs Clark put up an artlrie of bell second to none In that fast circuit He batted 402 In 111 games Which practically amounted to leading the league for the highest averaged hatter there was but one above him played In only 12 games In fielding at second base Clark was second with an average of 437 for Jll games and In thla particular he actually led the league
