Pittsburgh, Oct. 12. The punchless Pirates who wandered from second down to sixth place in the National league this year may be in for an overhauling but their new boss won't admit it. Frankie Frisch, the erstwhile ordham Flash who succeeds Harold "Pie" Traynor in the driver's seat, came to Pittsburgh yesterday for a three-day discussion with President Bill Benswanger.

He was more distressed at the Cubs' loss in the city series after- holding a 3-1 game edge.

On top of that he has indicated the club would finish in the red financially for the first time since the 1935 season. Wrigley merely said he was "undecided" when questioned regarding Haitnett.
