CHICAGO, IL. February 2, 1917 - Apparently the O'Connor family is scared off by the uncertainty of the upcoming season. When the Orphans won the series in 1917, many believed Mr. O'Connor would officially hand the team over to his son.
However, it has been reported that the family has sold the team to the owner of Whittington Popping Corn, Mr. Pinch Whittington. The 52-year-old is known to be a rather eccentric fellow, and may be just what the league needs during these tough times.
Chicago fans need not worry, however, as Whittington is from Ridgway, IL and is a big fan of the Orphans. There is virtually no chance that he will move the team away from Chicago.
