Detroit, Boston Deal Made

DETROIT, MI. December 28, 1912 - Detroit and Boston have agreed in principle to a swap that will send 24-year-old shortstop Jim Smith and 16-year-old catcher Keith Callihan to the Americans with 31-year-old shortstop Joe Soles joining the Wolverines. Detroit's general manager would not confirm the trade, but a team representative close to the negotiations said the deal is official and is now only awaiting approval from the league.
