Tact that when they bartered Jog Vosmik to Boston for Buck Newsom Red Kress and Buster Mills they got back two play ers they previously had sold without giving up any of the cash they had received for them And in' the case of Newsom they had collected 540 000 when he went to Washington in 1935 Obviously that's quite a feat but just one of many pulled off by the unknown trader since he disposed of Kress back in 1932 At that time the Browns started a series of deals with four players They added five others none especially costly and have built their ball clubs: for five years laraciv around the
