HOUSTON, .Tex. (W—“ Baseball's
the greatest game In the world.
But don’t kid yourself—it won’t
take care pf you always.”
That’s the belief of Eddie Dyer,
friendly former manager of the St.
Louis Cardinals.
And therein lies the story of why
genial Eddie quit the game when
most managers would have been
looking for a boost in pay—Just
when he had 'seen, one of his teams
win the world championship, in
1946, and four other teams, through
1950, give, a very respectable ac
count of themselves.
"From the very beginning I
hadn’t planned to stay in baseball
all my life,” he explained. ‘Don’t
get .me wrong—l’m not trying to
play Mr. Big because I know I’m
not.
“But as far as I’m concerned
there’s nothing more pitiful in
baseball than seeing a former
great doing down . . . down . . .
until he finds himself in Class B
ball, then finally out.
“All my life I’ve wanted to own
my own business. And no one real
izes better than I that I wouldn’t
have been in position to had it
not been for baseball.”
A right successful business—or
hIISiITAKRAC if ic tnn riiror nnow
Businesses —it is too. Dyer oper
ates, with two.of his former play
ers with St. Louis, an insurance
agency and on the side has a thriv
ing oil vbusiness.
His partners in the insurance
enterprise are Howard Pollet, now
a pitcher for the Pittsburgh Pi
rates, and Joffre Cross, former
utility infielder for the Cards when
Dyer was boss.
Nearly three years away from
the game. Eddie says he has no
plans for returning to baseball’s
big time—or any other time pro
fessionally.
But he still admits a certain
longing for the association he had
with ‘‘those kids” “Those kids"
being the husky group of ball
players he piloted for five years.
“Finest bunch of boys In the
world, those kids," he’ll still say
today.
EdAie also admits to a ceratin
“longing” for the admiration heap
ed on him as a ball club manager.
"Why just today I got five let
ters from people wanting auto
graphs,” he said. “One contained
a picture some kid had clipped of
me from a 1946 baseball maga
zine. And another asked why I
didn’t get back into baseball
that I was their favorite manager.
"I wouldn't be human if I didn't

Snead ended a two-month layoff
yesterday as he shot a- two-under
par 70 over the windswept course

Only four pros besides Snead

behind the leaders In his first start
of the year. He shot a 73.
Johnny Revolta of Evanston, 111.,
Henry Picard of Cleveland, Johnny
Palmer of Badin, N. C„ and Fred
Hawkins of El Paso, Tex., were

Chicago and was granted an injunction restraining his wife from
BEATING HIM. The fighter told the judge that his wife had beaten

the photographs which surrounded her living foom, also large, natur
