IN THE NEWS:
John McGraw, Charles A. Stoneham, and Tammany politician
Judge Francis X. McQuade buy controlling interest
in the Giants from the John Brush estate. Having drawn
just 265,000 fans in 1918, the club is sold at a bargain
price. The 3 will spend many days in courtrooms fighting
among themselves, and fending off government charges
about Stoneham's business practices.
