from poor business the past season,
the Ohio team will go along with
out an official coach next year, it
was announced today by Owner
Sidney We'll and Ownie Bush, new
Redleg pilot. One of the older

the depression lifts, a regular coach
will be employed again.
EHE Cincinnati Enquirer gave
Il Bush a fine Send-of in it's
columns today following official an
