Browns or Indians?

RUT Tony couldn't sign then be-
cause he still was property Of the
New York Yankees, with whom he
played for IL years. When word went
out from New York that Tony had
been given his unconditional release
by the Yanks, he was westward bound
on another train.
Friends of Lazzeri said their guess
was that he would go to work for
either the ST. Louis Browns or the
Cleveland Indians. They based their
guess on the facts that the Browns
we're in the market for new head
man and that Cleveland's Steve O'Neil
has not been asked to renew his con-
tract.
Anyway, Tony's going to take
another train next week. After that
the lid will be off.
