Red Sox Swap Seven Players For Two Stars Boston, Nov. 18 — (UP) — Shortstop Vein Stephens and pitcher Jack Kramer, highest paid mainstays of the St. Louis Browns, were Boston players today, and the rebuilding Red Sox appeared to have gotten all the best of the biggest baseball deal in six mouths. In return for Stephens and Kramer. the Red Sox swapped seven players — all second stringers or untried farm talent — and a bundle of cash believed to be upwards of 100,000. Dubbed by last season’s Brownie manager Harold (Muddy) Ruel, “the greatest shortstop I ever saw,” Stephens was exepected to take over Boston’s troublesome third base position under Sox manager Joe McCarthy. Kramer, a rifle-armed righthander, was tops on the St. Louis pitching staff last year with 11 victories and 16 defeats. The unimposing array of players sent to St. Louis in exchange for the two stars included relief catcher Roy Partee, utility infielder Eddie Pellagrini, and three farm hands — outfielder Pete Layden of New Orleans and pitchers Al Widmar and Jims Wilson of Louisville. Two other players, both of whom will be chosen from Red Sox farm teams, will be sent to the Browns later. It was the biggest swap-fest in the majors since last May 3 when Brooklyn pitchers Kirby Higbe, Hank Behrman, Calvin Coolidge McLish, catcher Homer Howell and infielder Gen Mauch went to Pittsburgh for outfielder Al Gionfriddo and SIOOO,OOO cash. Last season was not one of Stephen’s best. The 27-year-old- infielder batted .279 for 150 games, getting 157 hits, scoring 74 runs, batting in 83 runs and hitting 15 homers. A native of McAllister, N. M., Stephens jumped the Browns for the Mexican league in 1945. How-, ever, he spent only one day in the

O- J Anderson's Job At I ( lowa is Still Open < lowa City, la., Nov. 18 —(UP) — Dr. Eddie Anderson’s job as coach at the University of lowa was still open today but it remained for him j to say whether he wanted to stay. I The University board in control q of athletics met for four hours last i night but postponed action on An- ] derson's resignation which already has been accepted by Dr. Virgil Hancher, president of the university. The resignation would take es- ! feet July 1, 1948. 1 Members of the board said they ( wanted to talk personally with 1 Anderson before taking final 1 action. He was expected to meet 1 with them today. The board decided to reconvene not later than Thursday night. . Athletic director Paul Brechler indicated the board would meet sooner than that in hopes of bringing the situation to a conclusion. Neither Anderson nor Hancher would comment on the board’s action. Anderson said he might have a statement to make after he confers with the board of control, either as a body or individually. The board noted that Anderson’s resignation was “unconditional” when he submitted it to Hancher a few hours before the Hawkeyes upset Minnesota, 13 to 7, last Saturday. But the board’s terse announcement said that “the possibility that doctor Anderson would like to remain at lowa as coach was brought to the attention of the board, but up to this time it has received no official statement from Dr. Anderson himself.” Earlier yesterday, 49 percent of the 2,739 students participating in an informal poll voted in favor of Anderson’s resignation.
