NEW YORK WANTS
JIMMY COLLINS

BOSTON. October 10.-A New York dis
patch says the Americans would like to
have Jimmy Collins. the suspended man
ager of the Boston Americans. Owner
Frank Farrell of the Yanks made an Of
fer of three of his players, one of whom is
Laporte. for Collins when Jimmy first alb
sented himself from the team. 1t was re-
newed when the New York team was in
Boston last week.
1t is very probable that the deal would
have gone through but for the refusal
of Collins to submit to a trade unless GER
tain conditions complied with
Collins will be willing to enter into ne
gotations to play with some other club than
the Boston Americans next season. pro-
vided that the pay taken out of his salary
amounting to some $1,000. is restored to
him and he can adjust the salary matter
satisfactorily with the club that desires
his services.
Mr.. Farrell feels very confident that he
can arrange the salary matter to Collins
satisfaction and is satisfied that Collins will
be able to report in the spring in first-class
condition for playing.
Farrell thinks that with Collins on third
he will have a team that will have little
difficulty in landing the championship of
the American League.

Many old-time college athletes were on

for Yale and before that for Northwestern,
