Manager Haukins History; Gothams Start Search

NEW YORK, NY. August 21, 1913 - The New York Gothams have severed ties with their manager, Turk Haukins, firing him this afternoon at a hastily-called press conference.

The General Manager was quoted as saying the club needs a lot of things, beginning with a new skipper. "He did the best he could, but we just did not see the improvement needed to get our team in the upper echelon in this league. The time was right for us to part company."

No word on who will be the new New York manager, although club sources say the list is short.

"We are looking for a winner."
