 Following Charles Comiskey's death in 1931, the team continued to be operated by his family – first by his son Lou, then by Louis' widow Grace, and finally by their daughter Dorothy Rigney.Not until did the team pass out of the family (thanks in part to a feud between Dorothy and her brother Chuck) to a new ownership group, led by Bill Veeck, who had run the Cleveland Indians and the St. Louis Browns.During the 1950s, the team had begun to restore its respectability with manager Paul Richards utilizing an offensive philosophy emphasizing speed and a spectacular style of defense.
