Slapnicka the latest Indians deal spark for musing
In his Mitch's Musings column, the writer jokes about Cleveland Indians business manager Cyril Slapnicka and a complex trade rumor involving Joe Vosmik, Bill Knickerbocker, Oral Hildebrand, Julius Solters, Lynn Lary, and Ivy Paul Andrews. The piece playfully riffs on Roosevelt’s neighborliness appeal, Dealing with Hornsby and Harum, with quips about gate receipts and use of a bicycle tire as barter. It also reports Jimmy Powers’ Havana visit praising Adolfo Luque’s plantation life, cattle, cocks, and a lavish finca powered by its own electricity, as Luque plans a fiesta for Bill Terry and Freddy Fitzsimmons.
