Cavarretta Set To Take Cubs Manager Post At Last
Phil Cavarretta, veteran Cubs star, poised to become team manager after 18 years of service. The 34 year old from Chicago’s near North Side rose from Peoria to Reading to the big league club, homering in his first major league game to win 1 0, and clinching the 1935 pennant with a Dean Brothers era Cardinals. Cavarretta’s lifelong Cubs ties and on field heroics mark him as the destined choice to captain Wrigley Field.
