Is All Business

Detroit, Sept. 25.-Could Bill Terry

Tigers and Mickey Cochrane with the
New York Giants?
The answer to this question will
give you an insight into the 1894 flag
chases and why these clubs copied

Terry took a sixth place club in 1882
and walked away with the world

Of the American League.
Now then, did all these Giants and
Tigers come overnight on their own?
Are they clubs Of nine collectively,
rather than individual stars spotted
together. and all clicking at once?
Or are Terry and Cochrane the in
tangible ingredients that the French
chef mixes in the Brussels sprouts to
make you smack your lips?
But for Cochrane, Schoolboy Rowe
