Smarest Baseball Man Jones Quits Manager Role
The resignation of Fielder Alanson Jones as manager of the St. Louis Browns ends a storied career in baseball. Jones, famed for guiding the Chicago White Sox to the 1906 World Series title and the Sox from the bottom to pennant glory, leaves to focus on lumber interests in Portland Oregon. He had previously managed the Browns since 1916 and faced a noted slander case amid 1917 controversy.
