Harry Johnson

Harry Johnson, (Jr.?)



Born:



Died:




Career
1942-43 Andrew Jackson HS - Queens, NY (High School)
St. John's Prep - Long Island, NY (High School)
(College)
1947-48 Chattanooga Majors (PBLA)
1947-48 Fitchburg PAMCO's (NEBL)

Released by Fitchburg on December 14, 1947. There was another Johnson on that team, Howard "Mutt" johnson, so be careful researching.

6'3. Supposedly went to St John's Prep with Chattanooga teammate Red Dehnert. Found a Harry Johnson who played at Jackson HS in Queens who was a high scorer and stood 6'2, so that might be the guy. Way too many Harry Johnson's in NYC at that time to narrow down.
