|Linehon New Coach Of
 Grid Dodgers

New York, Oct. 36. CUP)-Fred Linehan, former Yale grid star, prepared to take over as head coach of the Brooklyn Dodgers in the All-America Conference today, fol- lowing the resignation of Dr. Nal Stevens, who found that football and surgery do not mix.
 Stevens, one time coach at Yale and New York University, resigned yesterday before the Dodgers trounced the Miami Seahawks, 30 to 2 at Ebbets Field, and became the fourth mentor in Ehe circuit to quit since the beginning of the season. He told Bill Cox, executive vice-preSident of the Dodgers, that he could not find time to success fully coach a football team and maintain his practice as an ortho- pedic surgeon.
 Stevens stressed the fact that he had been involved in no controversy with Dodger officials.
 iLnehan, a successful Massachu- sets businessman who helped coach Dodger linemen during spring train ing, will be at the helm when Brooklyn meets the Chicago Rockets in Chicago next week. He was chosen because he was thor oughly familiar with the teams system and players.

McPhoiI Says Harris Still In Running
By CARL LUNDQUIST United Press Sports Writer

New York Oct 26-CUP)-Two of baseball'S most consistent takers Larry MacPhail and Branch Hickey maintained their usual pace today, but all of the conversation did not reveal the name of the new Yankee manager or whether Charley Dressen is working for MacPhail or Hickey.
 Newest twist to the tangle was revelation by Brooklyn Dodger President Rickey last night that Dressen can't resign as Dodger coach unless he is accepting major league managership. Dressen, No. 1 assistant to Leo Durocher, said on Thursday he was quitting Brooklyn. He didn't say where he was going, but most observers felt certain he would end with the New York Yan- kees, either as manager or coach.
 Rickey said that on Sept. Is he entered into a verbal agreement with Dressen, giving the coach a substantial raise in pay, and stipu- latlng that DreSSen couldn't leave Brooklyn unless it was to manage another big league team
 Double Talk
 At the same time, Yankee Presi- dent MacPhail was telling reporters that Dressen hadn't even applied for job, but that he could have a Yankee post if he wanted it. Mac Phail didn't identify the job.
 MacPhail also said that no one had been picked yet for what has come to be regarded as the best managerial job in the game. He said Bucksy Harris, now with the Tanks in an administrative post, still was in the running, and that many others had been given consideration MacPhail was emphatic in declaring that the selection would be made public as soon as it is made.
 Dressen, who said that he was leaving Brooklyn because he had a chance to better himself" stayed in seclusion, but it was pointed out that only the Tanks were likely to better the two-year contract at about $l8,000 per year which he was said to have won at Brooklyn.
 Lip INOt SASuCo.
 Leo Durocher also remained in the picture. After the national league playoffs, Durocher said he hoped to stay with Brooklyn and Hickey "aS long as live" Yesterday MacPhail commented that as far as he knew, Durocher hadn't yet signed 1947 Dodger contract.
 Other names still mentioned were those of Frankie Frisch and Jimmy Dykes, and one story yesterday said that Harris would manage for one year with Dresser as each to fam iliarize Dressen with the American League.
 Dressen, AS, managed the Cincin- natl Reds from 1894 through 1887 when MacPhail was president there Durocher managed for MacPhail when the latter was running Brook lyn and won a pennant for Mac Phail in 1941.
 The Yankee job was left open when Bill Dickey quit near the end of the season. Johnny Neun filled in until the season was over and then accepted the job of managing Cincinnati
