(Ry II. NJ. Walker,l

Los Angeles, Jan. 27.-"Tell the
boys and fans at home that | will be

Such was the emphatic statement
made to the writer by Frank Chance,
Dion Cubs, today. In view of the fact
that negotiations between Chance and
President Murphy, presumably over
money matters, had been hanging fire
for weeks, incidentally that 1t had
been reported many times that Chance
would not don Cub uniform again,
the news Is particularly gladsome to
the fans, who had begun to despair.
Chance had just closed negotiations

he wrote his check for SAG, 500 in the

true that we have been at outs for

a difference of money and one which
not only affected myself, but the en-
tire team. Through an intermediary

Questioned as TO when he expected
to return to Chicago, Chance said;
"At the present moment cannot state
definitely when / will leave. Prob
ably not till the very last minute. You
