CLEVELAND (AP)-The Cleve

day it has released Joe Gordon

The announcement came while
the team was in Washington.
A club spokesman said Dykes,

troit and has accepted the Cleve
land job.
Gordon became the Tribe's
manager in late June of 1958, suc

In Washington, Frank Lane,
general manager of Cleveland,

as agreement" and goes into effect
immediately.
"Joe felt it might be best for
all concerned," Lane said.
"It was just one of those things.
A manager can't catch for them,
can't hit for them. Sometimes a
change in leadership has a salu
tary effect, sometimes it doesn't,"
Lane said.
Gordon said he thought the
change was for the best.
"I've always been very much
appreciative of the Cleveland club
hiring me in the first place," Gor
don said.
He said he was very grateful
for what Cleveland had done for
him.
"It's been very pleasant except
for the fact we haven't won any
ball games," Gordon said.
Gordon said he was very happy
to go to Detroit. He said it gave
him a chance to get a new start
"and see what I can do there."
Lane said "this thing was vol
untary on Gordon's part."
Cleveland lost Tuesday to the
Washington Senators 9-0.
