Posted By: <b>DD</b><p>Hi,<br />Can anyone help with the two gents on the right in this photo. On the left is Yankees super scout Paul Krichell, who signed Gehrig and Rizzuto among many others. Thanks<br /><br /><img src=http://www.scauctions.org/w-1.jpg>

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>If I had to just guess I would say the guy with the 'N' on his jacket is the manager of the Newark Bears. I know that Walter Johnson, Tris Speaker and Bob Shawkey were all managers for the Newark team in the 1920's - 1930's. It is not any of those guys. Is it Bill Meyer? Meyer managed the Bears from 1942-45

Posted By: <b>Jodi Birkholm</b><p>The chap on the right is George Weiss, isn't it? I'll see what I can come up with for the other man.<br /><br />For some reason, the name that immediately popped in my head for the "middleman" was Clyde Milan. I can't possibly see him having any connection to the Yankee organization, though, seeing as he coached Washington seemingly forever. Although I haven't checked images, I wouldn't be surprised if Dan's call of Billy Meyer is correct.

Posted By: <b>Tom Hufford</b><p>I could be wrong, but the fellow in the center looks a lot like Johnny Neun to me. He managed Newark 1938-41.

Posted By: <b>Dan Bretta</b><p>I thought about Johnny Neun, but I could not find a photo of him. Neun was born in 1900 and the guy looks older than his 30's to me.
