Dresser Is Your Man

PROBABLY THE BLEAKEsT PERIOD
OF Charlie Dressen's life occurred in mid
season Of 1882, after he had begun the
campaign as a 3S-year-old infielder for
Cincinnati and subsequently was denoted
to Minneapolis and Baltimore. When Dres-
sen is In mood to talk, which is constant
ly, he is apt to start the narrative, to wit:
I had to make move. was only hit
ting 21S for Baltimore and everybody fig
ured was all done. heard about the
Nashville club being In bad trouble and
needing manager. So took the gamble. {"
Charlie borrowed rail fare to Nashville
and walked up cold and unannounced to
the Vols owner, Fay Murray. "You got n
games left to play" he told Murray. LET
me manage your club and II don't win
more than half Of the IT don't pay me no
salary, Just expenses.
"On the last day Of the season we was
1888" Charlie relates. "Were winding up
against Atlanta and they're leading, 40.
But pulled 1t out and got paid. And got
contract for the next year, too"
$3.50
THIS IS NOT ANALOGOUS, perhaps.
TO what happened to Dresser this season.
Nor TO the fall Of 1858 when, after winning
second straight pennant with the Brook
Ign Dodgers, he was fired or resigned (take
your choice) because Walter OMalley
wouldn't give him more than q one-year
contract.
The difference was that In 1892 he was
jobless and unwanted But in SO, while he
also was jobless, he was In certain demand
a;iu quickly caught on with Oakland en-
route back to the big leagues. As for this
season, Dresser held a salaried II vague
position with the Los Angeles Dodgers
when he was invited, approaching his 65th
birthday to manage the Detroit Tigers.
On June IS, when Charlie was an
nounced as the new field boss, the Tigers
were a sad-sack club They were to have
been prominent penannt contenders but
never once looked the part. They fell apart
and Bob Scheffing, an amlable guy who had
declared In March he could win the flag
was all done.
TOO LATE NOW are the Tigers max
Ing big run. They are all but mathemati-
cally eliminated from the pennant race but
Except that fifth place wins no money
Dresser has them in the first division
and not far off the 500 mark.
When Scheffing was removed the

George Halas isn't the kind

and a player finds a little

For 10Th Win
BY the Associated Press

far above his 29.1 average. The
Knicks led 54-38 in the second
quarter, but West touched off
an 80 squirt which shaved the
Lakers' halftime deficit to So
SO.
Then, in the final period, Los
Angeles struck for seven
straight points, going ahead to
stay. Vests field goal broke a
104-l04 tie during the streak.
At Cincinnati, Jerry Lucas
came alive in the fourth quart
er and helped clinch the victo-
ry for the Royals. The rookie,
held to six points in the first
three periods, Tailed nine
points as Cincinnati outscored
the Hawks, 1892, in the last
quarter.
St. Louis had taken the lead
several times in the third per-
iod.
Oscar Robertson paced the
Royals with 81 points while
Cliff Hagan had 80 for the
Hawks.
