CAREER OF MANAGER MILLER L HUGGINS

Miller James Huggins, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals and one of the greatest second basemen in baseball, was born in Cincinanti, Ohio, March 27, 1880. He started his professional career in 1901 with the St. Paul team of the American association and played with the Saints for three seasons. In 1904 he returned to his native city as a big leaguer and a member of his home team, the Cincinnati Reds. For six years, or until he was traded to St Louis in 1910,

Huggins was the star of the Reds’ infield. He went to St. Lotiis in 1910, and for the last three years has done the same brilliant work for the Cardinals that made him famous in Redland. Last winter he was appointed manager of the team to succeed Roger Bresnahan. Although it will be his first season as a manager, St Louis fans are confident he will produce a winner. When his baseball days are over Huggins will practice law.
