parties in Boston are said to be seek.
Ing the club.
Frazee believes Griffith's friend
may be representing Ban johnson, or
at least some Of Bans associates.
F'razee said last night that no one
connected with johnson could buy
the club. no matter how big the
offer.
Charles Weeshman, former owner
Of the Cubs. was seen in F'razee' g
office yesterday. Both Harry and
Charley denied that the latter was
seeking the club. But where there
Is smoke there must be fire.
The Boston franchise is one of the
best in the country. Frazee is I'M
popular with the good folk of the
Hub, but with a change in ownership,
especially II a Bostonian bought the
club, the franchise would be worth
a lot more money than Frazee asks.
Frazee has set his ptice at $3.50. 900.
