Richards replaced John (Red) Corriden, who became a "fill-in" pilot last May when the White Sox fired Jack Onslow. * * * RICHARDS, 41, managed three minor league clubs, but this is the first Major League managerial as- signment for the former catcher for the Detroit Tigers. He was a Tiger player-coach from 1943 through 1946. His White Sox salary was, not disclosed. Richard's Seattle club finished sixth in the Pacific Coast League. He managed Atlanta of the Southern Association five years from 1938 through 1942. He won two pennants and fin- ished second and won one post- season playoff in that span. In 1947-48-49, Richards manag- ed Buffalo of the, International League, winning the circuit pen- nant in 1949. * * * RICHARDS is from Waxaha- chie, Tex., where he was born. General-Manager Frank Lane said the 1950 coaching staff will be selected entirely by Richards, but if he wanted to retain Cor- riden as a coach, it would be ac- ceptable to the White Sox. Richards is the fifth White Sox manager since 1946 when Jimmy Dykes left after a 13-season re- gime. SPECIAL SELLING /I :: r . . }: } .... 1 Slen el Signs Casey To Receive Fabulous Salary NEW YORK - (P) - Casey Stengel signed to manage the World Champion New York Yankees for two more years yes- terday at a salary that could run as high as $75,000 to $85,000 a year. Old Case, a fabulous success with two pennants and two series victories in two years, explained his new contract in typical Stengelese-with gestures. * * * "IT'S NOT $75,000," he said with a wink. "It's not $85,000, like some of you fellows been guessing. But it could be that." What did he mean by "It could be that?" "If I do good work," he said, "I can get it if I want it. No, we don't have to win the pen- nant. It's not attendance. May- be, they've just got to like me." If Casey does "good work" and ges $75,000 or $85,000 it willbe the highest price ever paid a man- ager. Best guesses are that the new agreement calls for a basic $65,000 with a bonus agreement. * * * ,, "ONE THING more," said Stengel. "If anything comes up that I desire to leave because of my health or anything else, I can do it." Stengel, preparing to leave for his Glendale, Calif., home where he hopes to "lay dead for a month," talked freely about his first signing with the Yanks in October of 1948. "I c9me in her with brick laws of the Oakland club," he said. "They give me a two-year contract and asked me a figure I'd work for. I got between 3's and 4's ($30,- 000 and $40,000). You might say I was compensated by the ball club in the fall with a bonus. Counting all of it, I got better than $50,000 the first year. * * * I NEVER HAD to ask for more but they did the same thing this year, even more at the end of the season. Now I got a new deal that does 12 months a year. I do extra things and I get extra money. Mr. Topping, Mr. Webb and Mr. Weiss have been mighty fine to me." * * * MEN'S GABARDI NE 40% wool, 60% rayon Perfect quality Dress Pants $715 ALTERATIONS FREE Well Tailored Sizes 28 to 42 Colors: Brown, Blue, Teal, Gray, Tan OPEN 'TILL 6:00 P.M. By BOB SANDELL Associate Sports Editor It might be with some regret that Coach Bennie Oosterbaan conspires the overthrow of mighty Army this weekend. Bennie probably won't admit it, but this game coming up is just a bit more important to him and the team than most of the rest of the contests on the schedule. OOSTERBAAN likes to take each game as it comes, but how can he take this one in stride when it's against the team that snapped the Wolverines' 25 game win streak last year, a team Michigan has never beaten, and purrently is the ,timber one outfit in the country. Even if Oosterbaan doesn't want to think of the six confer- ence games following, he can't help contemplating the effect this game could have on the squad. There is still a Western Confer- ence title to go after and with that a possibility of a Rose Bowl trip. All chances for either or both of these might go by the wayside this weekend. THE MENTAL buildup of a team Hoekey Slate Begins Tonight In MotorCity NEW YORK - (IP) - The Na- tional Hockey league opens its 1950-51 season tonight-the ear- liest inaugural in history-and De- troit's talent-rich Red Wings once again are expected to clean up in championship style. The- Red Wings will begin at home against the New York Ran- gers, the 'team they beat in the Stanley Cup finals last April. ANOTHER opener is carded for Thursday at Chicago, where Ebbie Goodfellow unveils his revitalized Black Hawks against the Montreal Canadiens. Then all six clubs will see action over the week-end. It seems, at this point, there just isn't a team strong enough to challenge Tommy Ivan's Mo- tor City skaters. But the De- troit coach looks for no runaway as last season. "The league is better balanced," Ivan said, "and we can expect a six-team race. Our club is in good physical condition. I don't think the trade with Chicago has made us any weaker." Hockey's greatest player swap sent veteran defenseman Jack Ste- wart, goalie Harry Lumley, for- ward Pete Babando and farm- hands Don Morrison and Al Dews- berry to Chicago. In return, De- troit received center Metro Pry- stai, wing Gaye Stewart, defense- man Bob Goldham and goalie Jim Henry. The deal apparently has bolster- ed both teams. The Red Wings have added extra scoring power to their already fearful attack, and the Black Hawks have plugged their porous defense, a long-stand- ing weakness. Bennie Must Look Ahead To Conference Games BEN OOSTERBAAN - .- he can smile * * * for a big game is tremendous. The letdown after can be just as great and often disasterous. One need go no farther than the last two meetings between Michigan and the Cadets. They merely cost the Wolverines a Big Ten title and a trip to Pasa- dena in 1946 and an undisputed crown last year. Then there is the heartbreaking 28-27 Purdue loss to Notre Dame in 1948, after which the Boiler- makers, a pre-season favorite for t h e conference championship, folded completely. * * * AND MORE recently there is the collapse of the Michigan State Spartans last Saturday after their dramatic upset of Michigan the previous week. It's a decision that many a coach has to make. Either he can have his team point for one big game and take a chance on the consequences, or else they can take them all alike. Stu Holcomb of Purdue gambled and lost in 1948, but this year he succeeded, at least as far as win- ning the "big one" is concerned. The effects of Purdue's smashing triumph over the Irish might still be serious, but presumably not as bad as if they had been beaten. * * * ALSO, Purdue should have a fairly soft touch this week in com- parison to what Michigan will have to face the week after the encounter with Army. While the Boilermakers take Miami University of Florida, the Wolverines sail into their Big Ten slate against Wisconsin's Badgers next week. Wisconsin upset highly regarded Illinois last Saturday and they ap- parently are stronger than the early season forecasts had made them out to be. The setup appears to be a natu- ral. With a defeat or even, a vic- tory against, Earl Blaik's Black Knights, the Wolverines will suf- fer a letdown against the Badgers. It could be the beginning of a dis- mal conference campaign for the Big Ten Co-champs. was getting ready for its first* * meeting with Armnse 1946.

Al Vahland The experts were piking the Wolverines to notch up their 26th in a row over te Cadet, ranked number seven in the poll at that time.. BUt the experts and the football poll were wrong. Army turned back the Maize and Blue, 21-7. THIS YEAR the tables are re- versed. The West Pointers annexed this week's football crown and the Wolverines found themselves lodged in a deep 18th place. And this Saturday at New York's Yankee Stadium Army will enter the game as favorites to extend its undefeated streak to 23 games and take its fourth straight victory in as many meetingswith Michigan. SO THE STAGE will be set for Michigan to prove the experts wrong again and settle a long overdue West Point account at the same time. The outcome will rest on the shoulders of the 35-odd players that will carry the baize and Blue colors into the home of baseball's world champions. It will be a tough assignment for Michigan's young ball club. * *' * But the Wolverines will have the advantage of a fighting spirit and a will to win.
