postwar Germans know that
they are an "integral part of
the Western World."
"On this point," he said,
"there can be no neutrality for
us."
Heuss also said it is Ger

good and dependable allies."
Never again, he said, will it
"depart from the path of

New York (UPI) Casey
Stengel, old "old perfessor,"
can count another record to
day in addition to those eight
pennants and six world cham
pionships in nine seasons with
the New York Yankees.
Old Case has outlasted 47
other major league managers
during his decade in the house
that Ruth built.
This may not stop many
presses, but it points up once
again the fact that being a
major league manager is an
occupation where continued
employment is rightfully no
torious for being on the short
side. Some skippers, it might
be noted, have been canned
after finishing first.
Whether Casey's artful ma
nipulations of his brawny tal
ent or the accrual of same by
the front ofice is responsible
for the Yankee successes
won't be debated, here. But
when it comes to managers,
nothing succeeds like success.
Casey Has Traveled
' Old Case, the left-handed
dentist from Kansas City, is
wrinkled proof of that. To
further the point, let it be
recognized that the guiding
genius of the competing Yan
kee athletes is along with
Marty Marion one of the
champion commuters among
various dugouts.
Marion holds the laurels
over the last decade, having
been boss man of the bench
with the Cardinals and, over
in the other league, with the
White Sox and Orioles. Three
jobs is the mostior the last 10
years.
But Casey did his share of
traveling, too, before he be
came the gifted manager of
this era. He managed at
Brooklyn from 1934 to 1936
and piloted the erstwhile
Braves of Boston from 1938
through 1943. In those days
the genius was called a stiff

when they kept it that polite.
National Holds Record
A total of 125 managers
has come and gone since
Stengel accepted the reins at
Brooklyn in 1934. Stengel
was two of them. The biggest
turnover in that period was
in the National league, where
65 alternately happy and dis
consolate directors of the
double play bowed in and
out. The top dugout redecor
ator was the St. Louis Browns
Baltimore Orioles who, since
Stengel was a novice at Brook
lyn, have had 12 pilots.
The late Connie Mack is, of
course, the all-time manager
ial champion. He guided the
A's for 50 years. Reason: he
owned them.
