Stecial TO The Telegraph

Philadelphia, Oct. 27. If present
plans do not miscarry, the Phillies
will do their Spring training in Flor
ida next year, arrangements having
been almost perfected to take the
squad to st. Petersburg. In all prob
ability the Philadelphia management
will secure the grounds for term
of years, either three or five.
This will be the farthest South the
PhillieS have ever gone to get into
condition, but the success attending
other teams that went to Florida in
duced President Baker to favor the
location. although he had contem-
plated sending the players to Califor
MIA. The st. Louis Browns did their
training last Spring at st. Petersburg
and wanted to go again, but a hitch
in the arrangements allowed the Phil
lies to slip in and they have secured
an option on the grounds, and 1t is ex-
Ipected that the details will be settled
in few days.
st. Petersburg, on the west coast of
Florida, is generally considered an
ideal place for a ball team to train,
not alone because of the climate, but
because 1t is one of the few Southern
camps with up-to date equipment. In
addition to putting the men into shape
for the championship season, the fact
that q number of the big league clubs
will be in Florida at the same time
will enable Manager Moran to get
some valuable practice in the way of
exhibition games.
The Athletics will again go to Jack
sonvilIe, and it will be possible for a
series between them and the Phillies,
alternating at the two cities. On the
way north the Phillies will be able to
arrange fine exhibition schedule that
should bring the team back to the city
on edge for the championship season.

COLLINS MAY co To
n. Y. AMERICANS
Athletic Star May Manage Yankees
if Trade Can Be Effected;
Mack Denies Deal
Special to The Telegraph

New York, Oct 27.-Though he will
not admit that he has been angling
for the Athletic star, Frank Farrell
does not deny that he has hopes of
separating Eddie Collins from the
Philadelphia club before next Spring.
Whether Collins would be made
manager of the Yankees If obtained by
the local American Leaguers isn't alto
gether certain, but the probabilities
are all that way.
Whether Collins can be brought to
New York depends largely upon the
showing Lutte Boone makes as mem
Der of the All-American team Connie
Mack is campaigning through the
West If Boone can impress Mack as
a young man with a big future, 1T is
almost an even money bet that he,
among others, will be traded off to the
Athletics in exchange for Collins.
While the Federal Leaguers were
in town last week Mr.. Farrell said: Il
hope Boone can play a lot of good
baseball for Mack. If he does, the
Philadelphia club may be willing to
part with Collins.
Further than that the Yankee pres
ident would say nothing, but many a
Yankee manager has been hired on
less provocation since Frank Chance
went away from here. The acquisition
of Collins would probably cost the New
York club quite considerable in play
ers and in cash, and Boone would GER
tainly be involved in the deal.
