r Stanley Takes Over As Cards' Manager I Myrtle Point Nips Reedsport Quintet ST. LOUIS - UP) - Edward Ray- mond Stanky steps gingerly into his new role as manager of the St. Louis Cardinals today con fronted by a novel problem. Can1 he win a starting position on his i own team? It's definite, says the former New York Giants second baseman, that 'he will serve as a nlaying man ager. However, the "ifs, buts and maybes" begin to pile up when he's asked where he will insert himself in the Redbird lineup. j With only a few short hours of experience as a manger (he signed a two-year contract with Owner Fred Saigh around supper time yesterday) Stanky says he isn't ready to make that decision yet. Or any others for that matter. The deal that broucht Stankv tn the Cardinals to replace the ousted Marty Marion as manager has been 1 kicked around for a few months now. Yet it took almost three hours , of actual conference between Eddie and Saigh to agree to terms. Saish held out for a one-year term, two years at the maximum. Kddie originally wanted a three- year contract. For giving up their peppery sec ond baseman, the National league pennant winners received veteran pitcher Max Lanier and outfielder Chuck Dierin from the Cards. As for the price tab Saigh placed on Stanky's services, it's anybody's guess. But the baseball men who say they know about such things place it at about $32,500 a year.
