Is Gamb|ed as Lyons
Takes Chisox Helm
BY the Assoeioted Press

CHICAGO, May 25.-Theodore
Amar Lyons today gambled 81 years
of pitching popularity against the
hazards of a managerial career with
the reeling Chicago White Sox.
AS 45-year-old Lyons took the
club helm against the Detroit Tigers
cigar-munching Jimmy Dykes, who
resigned yesterday after nursing
along the White SoX for more than
II seasons, went job-hunting.
General Manager Leslie M. O'Con-
nor said Lyons, ex-Marine Corps
captain and the mound hero of the
Sox family since he left Baylor
University in 1923, had not talked
over final terms.
If owner, Mrs. Grace Comiskey
follows the Dykes pattern, Lyons
probably will sign for two to five
years. His salary, the second
guessers say. will range from $17,50C
to $4,000 annually, hike of about
$4,000 over his current stipend.
Lyons plans to retain, for while
at least, coaches Bing Miller and
Mule Haas, Dykes aides, but he'll
give up Sunday pitching to con-
centrate on the various woes of a
club that dropped II of its last II
games and won only 10 of 30 since
the season opened.

Blackwell, 5purned
By Cardinals, Now
Their Nemesis
By Joe ReichIer
Associated Press SPORTS Writer

The St. Louis Cardinals, who
couldn't "see" Ewell Blackwell when
the stringbean Cincinnati right
handler was recommended to them
five years ago. wouldn't mind at all
today if they were never to see him
again.
Not only did the 23-year-old
6-foot 5-inch freballer from Fresno.
Calf, knock the Redbirds out of
their half of the top perch in the
National League standings last
night, but he became the second
hurler to register Two victories over
the Cards. Pittsburgh's Ken Heint-
zelpan is the other.
In clipping the Redbirds' wings
5-l, for the Reds, Blackwell dealt
the Cards only four hits and turned
back six on strikeouts. Oddly enough
his first triumph over the Cards also
was by 81 score with 10 strikeouts
on the side. BY way of rubbing it
in, Blackwell can boast of no other
victories this year. Harry Brecheen
was the loser, suffering his fifth re-
versal of the season.
The defeat dropped the Cards into
second place, one full game behind
the Brooklyn Dodgers who took over
undisputed possession of first place
by whipping the Philadelphia Phils,
81. 1t was the 18th straight victory
for the Brooks over the Phils at
Shibe Park in two-year span.
Kirby Higbe, pitching his first
complete game of the year, limited
the Phils to two hits.
Hal Newhouser joined Boston's
Mickey Harris as the majors only
seven-game winner when the lanky
southpaw ace pitched the Detroit
Tigers to a 81 victory over the
Chicago White Sox.
Held hitless for the first seven
innings by Boston's Ed Wright, the
New York Giants came TO life to tie
the score at 1-all in the last half
of the ninth and won the game in
the 18th when Ernie Lombardi
smote pinch hit home run.
Rookie Outfielder Ralph Kiner
with a 3-run homer, and Veteran
Pitcher Preacher Roe combined tc
lead Pittsburgh to 5-3 victory over

Dickey Takes Yank Helm as Choice Of Mccarthy
Bosox Series Big Test
For Successor 10
Ai|ing Ex-Pi|ot
By Bill King
Associated Press Sports Writer


BOSTON, May 25.-The dream of
almost every major league star from
Babe Ruth doWn-to succeed the
fabulous Joe Mccarthy as manager
of the New York Yankees-today
came true for Bill Dickey, for II
years one of the clubs most skilled
and faithful players.
Rated season after season as one
of the greatest catchers in history,
the Bastrop NaD born Dickex,
who will be 80 next month, was
placed in charge of the Bronx
Bombers shortly after President
Larry MacPhail received McCarthy's
telegraphed resignation from his
Buffalo home.
Mccarthy, who, while plotting the
Yanks since 1881, led them to eight
American League pennants and
seven world championships, wired
MacPhail that his physical condi-
tion would not permit him to con-
tinue with the Yankees.
After being introduced by Mac
Phail during a hastily arranged
press conference as "the manager of
the Yankees for the rest of the 1916
season and for all of 1947," Dickey
took over on humble note.
Mccarthy Urged Choice.
"It's going to be mighty tough to
step into the shoes of the greatest
manager in baseball history" began
his acceptance speech. And while
I'm trying to do it, I'm going to
continue catching as long as I feel
I can help the club"
MacPhail, before introducing
Dickey to the Yankee players as
their new pilot, said that the vet
eran backstop not only was his first
choice to assume such responsibility
but also that of the abdicated Nc
Carthy, who, during a fve-yea1
managerial term in the Nationa.
League, led the Chicago Cubs to the
1929 pennant.
Although one of the brightest
stars of the diamond in his owr
right, Dickey, during his long serv.
ice with the Yanks, appeared
eclipsed first by Ruth, then the
late Lou Gehrig and finally Joe
Di Maggie.
But Dickey rates high on the list
of Yankee sluggers, for his 16.
year batting average, prior to hi.
entrance into the Navy in 1914, wa.
.316 and while compiling it he drove
in a total of 1,l99 runs with 1,934
hits. And in addition to playing
in eight World Series, he also wa.
named on American League all.
star teams 10 times.
Faces Tough Test at Start.
Last winter, Dickey after beins
discharged as a lieutenant com.
mander, was offered the manager

League farm in Newark but re.
jected it.
Today Dickey will make his debu
