Unprecedented in the history Of thl-
celebrated organization.
This Is indeed tough on Roger Brcs-
uahan. Fielder Jones and the other
property possibilities Of the day -
but ii is true. nevertheless A few
weeks ago rumors began popping all
along the firing line until it sounded
like the usual fusillade, but gradually
the noise died away, until now you
hear onlv an occasional spent para
graph fzzling out in some column
way, way down in the sticks.
Bin Dahlen's sentence to Brooklyn
for another year has practically been
confirmed by Charles Hercules Eb-
bets. Charles reserving the right. vt
course. to change his mind at any
time without notice, and any time
Dahlen's fate is settled the books close
ON the managerial situation through
out the league.
Miller Higgins, despite a rather in
different showing, hangs on at St
Louis: Charley Doom sticks in Phila-
delphia, while there has never been
any doubt about John J. McGraN
George Staillngs and Fred Clarke

at Cincinnati, but Garry Herrmanns
