ing to quit, Evers says it is his intention to ask Charles W. Murphy for
such a mighty stipend that the presi- : dent of the world's champions will not (
ask him to return. ,
Evers' reason for giving up the game j
is that he has business prospects which : will require his attention and pay him better than staying In baseball. I
President Murphy declined to make'
a statement on the matter, following
his rule not to answer statements made in other people's letters. That part of Evers' letter refeering I to his retirement from the game is as i
follows: . . "If things turn out as I expect next
week, I'll make good and never play j ball again. Even if they don't turn! out as I expect, I'll make good any i way, as I don't want to be kidded all. next summer about not making good.
