Frank John Lausche (pronounced LOW-shee;〔Odenkirk 2005 : 127〕 November 14, 1895 – April 21, 1990) was a Democratic politician from Ohio. He served as the 47th mayor of Cleveland, Ohio, as the 55th and 57th Governor of Ohio, and as a United States Senator from Ohio for two terms (1957–1969).
==Youth and baseball career==
Lausche's family originates from Slovenia. He was born in Cleveland, Ohio, the son of Frances (née Milavec) and Louis Lausche.〔http://ech.case.edu/cgi/article.pl?id=LFJ〕 Lausche attended St. Vitus Grade School grades one to four, St. Francis Grade School in grade five and Madison Grammar School grades six to eight. He then went to Central Institute Preparatory School. He dropped out of school in 1911, when his older brother died, to help support his family.〔Odenkirk 2005 : 53〕 He played baseball locally when not working, and was recruited as a third baseman to the amateur White Motor team, which won a national championship. He was noticed by scouts and reported to the Duluth White Sox, Duluth, Minnesota, of the Class D Northern League in the spring of 1916.〔Odenkirk 2005 : 55〕 He started the season batting .422, but developed trouble hitting curve balls, and was released after 31 games. He signed with a semi-pro team in Virginia, Minnesota. He performed poorly for two weeks before returning to Cleveland, and amateur ball.〔Odenkirk 2005 : 56〕
During the spring of 1917, Lausche reported to the Class B Lawrence Barristers, Lawrence, Massachusetts, of the Eastern League. He started well, but was released after 27 games. He enlisted in the United States Army that summer, and reported to Camp Gordon, near Atlanta, Georgia. He was noticed playing baseball, and was asked to join the camp baseball team. He was promoted to second lieutenant after eight months, and assigned to officers' training school. His high batting average “spared him a trip across the ocean to the front lines.”〔Odenkirk 2005 : 56〕 The team manager at the camp was Charles Frank, who in peacetime owned and managed the Atlanta Crackers of the Class AA Southern Association. After World War I ended in November, 1918, but before Lausche was discharged in January, 1919, Frank offered Lausche a six month contract, at $225 per month if he would report at spring training.〔Odenkirk 2005 : 57〕 Lausche had also completed high school while in the Army.〔Odenkirk 2005 : 53〕
