For time il seemed that Manager
Griffith would be able to make some
sort of a deal or sale of Joe Boehline
to the Detroit club. Griffith and Navin
had several chats on the subject, but
they could not come to any sort of
agreement
Comiskey and Griffith were closeted
for several hours regarding Gandii. but
they could not get together, and Grif-
fifth also decided he would rather help
out the Cleveland club than strengthen
