Mayo Smith Is New Cincinnati Manager United Press International Mayo Smith and infielder Solly Hemus, teammates at Philadelphia this year, will be directing squads from opposite dugouts in the 1959 National League race. Smith, fired as manager of the Phillies in July, regained his major league membership late Monday when he signed a one - year contract as boss-man of the Cincinnati Redlegs. Hemus, who played under Smith during the first half of the 1958 season, accepted the stewardship of the St. Louis Cardinals hours earlier and will launch the 1959 season as the majors’ only playermanager. In another major league development, the Kansas City Athletics re-signed manager Harry Craft for the 1959 season at a “sizeable” increase in salary. Lost in the shuffle were Jimmy Dykes and Stan Hack. Dykes succeeded Birdie Tebbetts as the Redlegs’ pilot in early August and hustled them from last to fourth place. Hack replaced Fred Hutchinson as manager of the Cardinals with less than two weeks of the season remaining. ♦ Race Driver Loses Driver's License INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — Race driver Ed Elisian, Oakland, Calif., lost his driver’s license for 120 days Monday night and was fined sl4 and costs for a speed law violation.
