Plain Dealer Says Veeck Deal May Be Near
The Cleveland Plain Dealer reports there is more truth than fiction to a possible return of Bill Veeck to baseball as owner of the St. Louis Browns. Developments at winter meetings in St. Petersburg, Florida, support the claim, though Veeck and Browns president Bill DeWitt deny a deal is under way. The paper cites a possible franchise purchase of $2,000,000 or more to be completed in weeks, with no players sold or traded until negotiations finish.
