Through As a PLAYER.

New York, Dec. 20--If Frank Chance
is engaged as manager of the New
York Americans he will manage the
club from The bench. Chance himself
is quoted as saying so by a friend in
this city who received letter from
the former Chicago manager. Chance
said in effect that he was through as
a first baseman and did not want to
play any more, but would manage from
the bench as he did at Chicago last
season, and part of the season before.
This report is a disappointment to
New York fans, who had already been
making lineup with Chance at first

that Chance and President Farrell OF
the New York Americans will meet
