iris SPEAKER IS
newark MANAGER
Veteran Major League Star to
Succeed Walter johnson as Pilot

New York, Nov. IL (UP)-Tria
Speaker, one of the greatest out
tielders baseball has known, return
ed to the minor leagues yesterday
after 81 years in the big show as
player and manager.
He will manager the Newark In
ternational league club.
Speaker is the second outstanding
major league Sinnott has brought
to his club in the past two years.
Walter Johnson. for 20 years one
of the premier pitchers OF the
American league, resigned the posi-
ito" Speaker now holds to return
to Washington as manager.
Assuming the role of player
manager, Speaker plans to occupy
his old position in center field during
the coming season. This plan, how
ever. will be discarded II he finds
u promising outfielder for sale or
trade at the meeting OF lnterna-
tional league teams at Toronto next
month.
At that time Speaker plans to ne
gotiate severals deals In players
Which may help him to place
winning team on thu field next
spring. He hopes to strengthen sew
eral weak spots in the Bears line
up before the training trip to st.
Augustine. Fla.
Speakers big league career, divid-
e for the most part between the
Boston Red Sox and the Cleveland
Indians, stamps him as one Of the
greatest defensive outfieiders of all
time.
The game has Known better bat
ters, better men on the base lines,
and greater throwing arms than
Speaker boosted. But few il any
OF the greatest outfielders could
match Iris in covering the outfeld
and sureness in holding a fly ball
once his hand touched it.
His league career began in 1906
when he played with Cleburne in the
old North Texas league. The fol-
lowing season he played with Hous-
ton in the Texas circuit and with
Boston in the American league.
He was not considered ready when
he first reached the big show and
Boston loaned him to Little Rock Of
the Southern league for further sea-
soning. Before the end of 1905 the
Red Sox found regular place for
him and he spent the next seven
years with that team.
His fielding and hitting during
that span were great factors
in the championships ne Red Sox
won in 1912 and 1915.
In 1916 Cleveland bought him for
a reputeG $4,000 and two players.
After three years with the Indians
he succeeded Lee Foil as manager
in mid-l919 and led the team to a
worlds championship that fall.
He spent II years with Cleveland
before his unconditional release In
February. 1927. after he had been
cleared of charges of conspiring to
throw a game.
Washington offered him a con-
tract and he spent a year with the
Senators. Connie Mack signed him
a year ago after he again was re-
leased Internationally. He saw lit
tie action with Philadelphia. occu-
pyNg the bench with Ty Cobb and
