Frank Lane Gets Free Hand
As Tribe General Manager
By STEVE HOWICK
Cleveland (IP) New general
manager Frank Lane of the
Cleveland Indians arrived here
today to begin flexing the "free
hand" the Tribe directors prom
ised when they announced his
appointment Tuesday.
It was unqualified control of
the Indians which Lane sought
when he offered himself to the
directors. Until Lane acted, the
Indians recognized the claim of
the St. Louis Cardinals on Lane.
Once it was clear that Lane
sincerely wanted to accept the
Cleveland challenge, he got his
contract on his terms. First was
that "free hand." Then came "a
three-year contract and a higher
salary than I got in St. Louis."
Lane arrived for a one day
look around Cleveland. He was
due to return to St. Louis for
one day, then fly to Havana to

Bragan and Lane.1

Lane cancelled the third year
