Indians Hire
Lane 10! Run
Front Office

CLEVELAND, Nov. IL (R.-
Frank Lane today was hired as
general manager of the Cleve-
land Indians. He comes here
from the st. Louis Cardinals
to succeed Hank Greenberg and
gets a three-year contract.
Lane, a 61-year-old jack-in-
the-box whose players trades
lifted the Chicago White Sox
and the Cardinals higher in
their league standings, still had
a year to go on a three-year
contract with tho Cardinals.
Greenberg was notified by
the directors on october 16 that
his contract would not be re-
newed. Slumping attendance
and criticism from the fans
were factors in Greenberg's
firing. A director, he controls
about 10 per cent of the clubs
stock and was present today.
Dewitt Passed Up
Bill Dewitt of st. Louis. now
| in charge of a major league
fund for the aid of the minors,
originally had the inside track
for the appointment. He said
he was interested" if he could
get a long-term contract.
But Lane apparently made an
aggressive move for it. after
expressing some dissatisfac-
ton in the way things were
going in st. Louis. There were
reports he felt his powers had
been limited there.
Lane is expected here tomor-
row.
No salary figures were dis
closed. The guessing here was
that at st. Louis Lane probably
netted around 100000 on a
bonus arrangement, about the
same as the salary Greenberg
was believed to be getting.
There were reports his base
salary here would be $4,000,
with bonus on attendance.
Free Hand to Rebuild
William o. Daley, Cleveland
financier who is chairman of
the Tribes board, said the new
general manager would be given
a free hand to rebuild the club.
Lane joined the Cardinals be-
fore the 1856 season. That
year they moved from seventh
to fourth place in the National
League. Last season they were
in contention until the final
week, finishing second. His
trades included the swapping
of Second Baseman Red
Schoendienst to the Giants,
which upset some Cardinal
fans.
Lane was named general
manager of the White Sox
late in 1913. They climbed
from last place to the first
division in 1851, after which
they stayed in third. ..
Some of his trades for the
White Sox brought in Orestes
Minoso, Billy Pierce, Nelson
Fox and Sherman Lollar. And
he bought Chico Carrasquel
from Brooklyn at a bargain
price.

BY GEORGE HUBER

Coach 30 Sherman of George
Washington is giving serious
thought to moving up two soph-
omore backs to the starting
team for Saturdays game
against Navy at Baltimore.
The proposed shifts would
put Duane MILESTONE, a 1885,
FOUNDER, at fullback and Ed
Hino, a 170-pounder. at quar-
terback.
There is a double motive be-
hind this idea. Both players
/ have improved to the point
where they deserve a more pro-
minent part in GW's plans, and
they would be replacing players
who have been earring a ire
mendous load and who need
relief.
If MILESTONE starts. he will
be replacing Dick Claypool, who
has averaged more than As
minutes a game. MILESTONE
started the season a bit over
weight but finally has whipped
himself into shape. He was
one of the few bright spots
in GW's losing game against
Richmond Saturday.
Nets 50 Yards
He didn't get in until well
into the third quarter against
Richmond, but on his first at
tempt he carried 10 yards for
GW's longest rushing gain of
the day. He carried six times
to net so yards and got three
of GW'S IL first downs. Twice
his first-down runs came on
the important third-down stu
atoms.
MILESTONE might have been
used more frequently earlier
in the season. but he is not the
kicker Claypool is. If he does
play with the starting back
field Saturday the kicking will
be handled by Halfback Mike
Sommer. Mike is a fair coun-
try kicker who has punted
only once this season, for IS
yards.
In the case of Hino at quar-
terback, Sherman thinks this
youngSter has reached the
point where he deserves to play
with less pressure on him. "Of
