And to Keane, new manager of the Yankees, and his lovely wife, Lela. the big town is fully living up to its reputation as a Summer Festival, complete with a World's Fair.

"Lela and 1 are having a ball," smiled Keane another day's work at Yankee Stadium. He wasn't talking, about the Yankees. Keane, 53, spent most of his baseball life in I minors. He played in such places as Globe, Waynesboro, Springfield, and Elmira, N. Y.

As; a manager, he learned the trade in Albany, and New; Iberia, La. He had been in the St. Louis Cardinals' chain 29 years before being promoted to the parent club as a coach. "Even when I came to New York with the Cardinals as coach and manager, my time largely was confined to the Commodore Hotel and the Polo Grounds and last season Shea Stadium," commented Keane, and you got the impression that he regretted having missed so much. knew New York was big, but dirin real- he it was this big.

A can really get lost here." Everybody who knows the quiet, business-like Keane who has made his home in Houston since 1936, expected him to lease an unpretentious apartment near Yankee Stadium. This is the same man who spent six years at St. Louis Seminary studying for the priesthood. Keane smokes miniature cigars and i an occasional glass of light wine or beer. He is happiest playing with his grandchildren, Johnny Masterson, 5, and Kelly, who will join him in New York in June.
