Joseph Lannin, Former
Head of Boston Red Sox,
Is Plunge Victim.

NEW YORK, May 15.-Joseph
Lannin, former owner of the Bos-
ton Red Sox and wealthy hotel man,
was killed today by a fall of seven
floors in the Granada apartment
hotel, Brooklyn, which he purchased
recently for a sum reputed to be
100000.
Lannin owned the Garden City
Hotel at Garden City, Long Island,
and was interested in Long Island
real estate operations. He also owned
Roosevelt Field, starting point of
several transatlantic flights, in
GLIDING Lindberghs.
Lannin fell from a ninth story
window to the roof of two-story
extension. Thomas Donahue, man
sger of the hotel, said Lannin told
him he was going to room No. 915,
from which he fell, to inspect some
new plastering work there.
Donahue said Lannin had been
suffering from heart disease and
probably became dizzy and fell
while looking out of the window.
James J. Dooling, attorney for
Lannin, said the death was entirely
accidental.
HE had no reason for taking his
life" Dooling said. There were no
financial troubles, for he was worth
between 100000 and $8,000,000."
