weekend, while late messages from

Park, was made to Frazee a short
time ago. 1t came from a group Of
Goston sportsmen who are anxious
to have the team locally owned.
Frazee rejected II, and although he
did not fixe a price, it is said that
he would listen very attentively to
any proposition which included such
figures as s1,250,0OO.
Frazee is in disfavor in Goston.
The fans never have forgiven him
for the sale Of Gabe Ruth and other
stars. Many have "boycotted" the
Sox under the Frazee ownership.
Frazee has antagonized newspaper
men in the Hub city. and those who
are not openly hostile are careful
not to do anything that will help
him.
As result Frazee probably
would welcome chance to get out
of baseball, especially in view of the
fact that his 1921 team seems me-
diocre and doesn't look as II 1t will
