KANSAS CITY (P)-Lou Bou-
dreau yesterday was signed to a
two-year contract as manager of
the Kansas City Athletics, mark-
ing his third stint as an American
League skipper.
Boudreau was fired recently as
manager of the Boston Red Sox,
a post he had held since 1952.
Salary Undisclosed
Arnold Johnson, Chicago busi-
nessman who acquired the Phila-
delphia franchise last week, did
not disclose Boudreau's salary.

By DICK CRAMER
Ron Kramer, Michigan's star
sophombre end, was chosen the
Associated Press Lineman of the
Week yesterday on the strength of
his great performance last Satur-
day in the Michigan State game.
Playing all but a few minutes,
Kramer blocked two Spartan punts,
picked up one of them for a touch-
down, converted for two extra
points, and generally harrassed
Michigan State's speedy backfield
with his all-round defensive play.
In addition, Kramer caught two
passes to bring his total of pass in-
terceptions for the season to 20,
almost half of Michigan's number
of completed aerials.
Top Punter
Kramer's punting was another
factor in his being chosen Line-
man of the Week. With four well-
booted punts last week, he main-
tained his amazing average of 41
yards per kick in Big Ten play.
Even in rushing the 6-3, 220-
pound left end has managed to
distinguish himself during the sea-
son. In his few running opportu-
nities on end-around plays and on
fourth down situations when he
was prevented from punting, KraZ
mer has compiled a team leading
average of 4.3 yards per carry.
The blocked - kick touchdown
which Kramer scored last Satur-
day was his third six-pointed of
the season. Added to his total of 13
extra points in 14 tries this fall,
they give big Ron a record of 31
points, tying him with Lou Baldac-
ci for the team leadership in scor-
ing.
Mutual Admiration Society
What might superficially be con-
sidered a mutual admiration so-
ciety has developed between Kra-
mer and his coach, Bennie Ooster-
baan, an all-American end in 1925-
26-27. Of course, there has been
good reason for plaudits from both
sides.

According to Oosterbaan, "Kra-
mer is a born athlete. He has
speed, he is big, and he can do
just about anything. He is a great
football player."
But the modest Kramer sees it
differently: "It's great to be Line-
man of the Week, but I'm still
learning from Bennie that there's
an awful lot to playing football.
You've got to fit into the team and
it's Oosterbaan and the rest of the
coaching staff who have made the
squad into a spirited, team-work-
ing bunch of fellows."
Faster Than Bennie
Prospective all-American Kra-
mer was likened to the old all-
American Oosterbaan by Michi-
gan's Athletic Director, Fritz Cris-
ler. Crisler said, "I think Ron is a
shade faster than Bennie was. I'm
certain of one thing; he's an aw-
ful lot faster than Bennie is now."
The winner of all-state recogni-
tion in high school football and
basketball and possessor of this
year's Meyer W. Morton Award for
most improvement in spring grid
practice at Michigan, Kramer is
presently undecided as to whether
he will go directly from college
into the field of his studies, busi-
ness administration, or whether he
will first take a fling at profession-
al football.
Meanwhile, three years of star-
dom seem a certainty for Kramer
at Michigan on the basketball court
as well as on the gridiron. Coach
Bill Perigo counts heavily on the
tall 19-year-older to lift his net
squad from its usual Big Ten dol-
drums.
At least until the end of the
week, however, Kramer owes his
allegiance to the pigskin sport. He
is expected to be Michigan's big
gun Saturday against Ohio State
in the battle for the Big Ten cham-
pionship and /a possible trip to the
Rose Bowl.

Baldacci
Is Midwest's
I Top Back
Lou Baldacci, Michigan's versa-
tile quarterback-fullback was
named by the United Press yes-
terday as their choice for Mid-
west "Back-of-the-Week."
Baldacci's key role in Michigan's
great upset of Michigan State was
the determining factor in the UP
vote.
With both teams scoreless early
in the second period Baldacci
fought his way over left guard for
Michigan's first touchdown from
the fullback position.
Breaks Spartans Back
Then, early in the final period,
just after the State team scored
its touchdown and appeared very
much back in the game, it was
Baldacci who broke the Spartan's
back.
This time is was on Minnesota
pass play in which Baldacci, now!
playing quarterback received a
pass from Dan Cline, his tailback'
in the single wing on the State 43,
yard line.
From there Baldacci cut to his
right and turned toward the State
goal line using the beautiful block-
ing of his teammates to great
advantage and raced the remain-
ing distance untouched.
It gave Michigan a 20-7 advan-
tage with time running out and
left Michigan State a beaten ag-
gregation.

NEW YORK (-) - The New
York Yankees and the Baltimore
Orioles have completed one of the
biggest baseball deals in years with
pitchers Bob Turley and Don Lar-
sen going to the Yankees and vet-
eran outfielder Gene Woodling
and pitcher Harry Byrd to the Or-
ioles, it was learned yesterday
from an authoritative baseball
source.
The trade, which also invloves a
number of other players, is sched-
uled to be announced Thursday.
In addition to Woodling and
Byrd, the Yankees will send two
young catchers, believed to be Gus
Triandos and Hal Smith, and
three or four other players to the
Orioles. At least two and possibly
three others will come to the Yan-
kees along with Baltimore's two
outstanding pitchers.
S"Part of it is sheer speculation,"
said Oriole President Clarence
Miles in Baltimore.He added there
was no anouncement last night
and that when it did come it
would be from General Manager
Paul Richards. Richards was not
immediately available for com-
ment. Neither were any of the
Yankee officials in New York.
In Turley and Larsen the Yanks
obtain two of the outstanding
young pitchers in the American
League although neither had out-
standing won and lost records with
Baltimore last season.
Strike Out King
Turley, 24-year old fire-ball
right hander, led the league in
strikouts with 184 and had an
earned-run average of 3.46 while
winning 14 and losing 15.
Larsen, 26 years old and also
a right hander, dropped 21 games
while winning only three, one a
shutout against the Yankees, but
he was highly regarded through-
out the circuit. He had an earned
run average of 4.37.
Woodling, 32, veteran of nine
years in the majors-the last six

with the Yankees-batted .250 last
year after being out of action some
time with injuries. It was his low-
est average since coming up to the
majors with Cleveland in 1943.
Byrd, obtained by the Yankees
last winter from the Philadelphia
Athletics, never quite rulfilled the
hopes of the New York manage-
ment. He had a 9-7 record. Most
of his victories were against sec-
ond division clubs. The big right
hander will be 30 years old next
February.
Triandos and Smith, two of the
five catchers on the Yankee ros-
ter, played in the triple A Ameri-
can Association last year. Trian-
dos, 24, hit .296 with Kansas City,
connecting for 18 home runs and
driving in 65 runs. Smith, also 24,
batted .350 for Columbus, hit only
seven homers and drove in 50
runs.
Smith was optioned to Columbus
in the 'deal that brought Enos
Slaughter from the St. Louis Car-
dinals to the Yankees.
In number of players involved
the Yankee-Orioles deal ranks
with the one between New York
and the Athletics last winter. Elev-
en players were involved in that
trade.

Plans for a pep rally to send
off Michigan's Columbus-bound
Wolverines have mushroomed into
giant proportions.
With the scrappiest team Michi-
gan has had in years heading for
a climactic struggle with Ohio
State, the campus will converge
on the Union at 2:00 tomorrow
afternoon and then march to Fer-
-ry Field.
At least three bands are sched-
uled to be on hand when Coach
Bennie Oosterbaan and his foot-
ballers leave the Fieldhouse at
2:45 for Willow Run Airport.
The three volunteer bands,
which will begin at various points
on the campus shortly before 2:00,
will meet at the Union and then
head the procession down State
Street to Ferry Field.

Oosterbaan and his team will be
waiting at the Fieldhouse where
several people will speak before
the Wolverines embark for the
game that, as well as being a tra-
ditional rivalry, has assumed na-
tion-wide importance..

final round of a brutal contest.
It was a technical knockout.
The loss by the 26-year-old
Brooklyn boy was in the first de-
fense of the title he won from
Carter last March 5.
It was the second technical
knockout loss by Paddy. A cut eye
was the reason for the other one.
He was battered into submis-
sion under the sharp punching of
Carter.
