Wise Move

Boudreau will do the Job Peclin-

do. A born leader, he commands re-
spect and auttoiryt. There's an air
about the indians they haven't had
in years. Even the old indictments
have caught the fever.
Wisely Boudreau has associated
with him two veteran coaches, Burt
Shotton, former Columbus manager
and one-tine pilot Of the Phils, and
Oscar Melillo, who served under Witt
and was rehired after one year out
of baseball. Melillo Is the fellow who
urged Witt to suspend all the rebel

team since 1928. Although Boudreai

fourth again.

dark, flashing-eyed Boudreau is his
pitching. The staff is a conglomer-

1923 hitter from Minneapolis, and
Jim Hogan, o 1872 hitter from

Leslie Fleming, who hit Ala Tor
Nashville last season, will take over
Trosky's post and has shown power
enough to get the cleanup Job In
the batting order. Ray Mack and
Oscar Grimes are battling for the
