LOU BOUDREAU NEW MANAGER AT CLEVELAND Youthful Shortstop Named Manaxer Os Cleveland Indians Cleveland Nov. 26 tl'Pi The most unenviable job In baseball fell to 24 year-old shortstop lam Boudreau today with his selection a» player-manager of the Cleveland Indiana. Boudreau, with only two and a half seasons of major league ex-|H-rl*nce. became the youngest man ever chosen for such a post when he waa named to succeed Roger Pe< khipaugh. who was made a vice-president In the Indian* organization. Previously, the Washington Sen ators had employed the youngest big league manager In Stanley Harris. who was 27 when placed in charge of the Senators for the first time In 1824. Boudreau's two-year appoint-’ merit, although somewhat of a surprise because of hl* youth and comparative inexperience, may be the answer to the internal dlfllritl ties that have beset the tribe He Is noted for having perfect bane ball "Instinct" afield and for keep ing aloof from all of the off-field dissension prevalent among the player*. He came to Cleveland In August. P.I3P, with second baseman Ray Mack from Buffalo of the International league and lyi» been in the Indians' Infield ever since. His appointment came after club presi- | dent Alva Hradley promoted Peekinpaugh. manager during the past dismal season, to the "front office" to handle the tribe's farm affairs I That post had been watched by the resignation of C. Hlaptiieka at the end of last season. Boudreau's task will be difficult 1 Rat'd pre-season favoriit* after finishing second to Detroit by a single game In - 1840, the Indians collapsed during the last season and finished in fourth place, tied with the Tigers. 26 games behind the pennant winning New York Yankees Although faced with the practically impossible job of replacing Bob Feller, the Indians' pitching ace. who Is due for army Induction sometime iu January. Boudreau said he hoped to “have the club finish In the first division next season." "I hope to mould a greater degree of good fellowship, aggressive-1 ties* and good spirit." he said "I'm going to stay clime to the fellow* and I don't anticipate any trouble with disclplien.” The Indians made baseball history when they staged a group revolt- not participated in by all the players - against manager Oscar Vitt In 1840. "I can't say whether tny duties a* manager will affect tny playing." said Boudreau, who Is married and . has a three-year-old daughter, “only time will tell that. But I don't think there will be any trouble un that score." Boudreau said he would attend the minor league meetings at Jacksonville, Fla., starting Dec. 11 and then go to Chicago for the major league conferences. He said he would select as two new coachmi. "men with experience." and , would probably quit hU position as assistant basketball coach at University of Illinois.
