Frazee denies Barrow as Red Sox manager
Frazee declares reports from Chicago about Ed Barrow taking over the Red Sox are false. He says Barrow is a friend and valuable to the business side, but never a managerial candidate and will not join the club as manager. He expects to return to Boston within a week. Chester Thomas, former Red Sox, now in movies, writes from Los Angeles praising the weather and recounts a large fish catch.
