BILL COLLINS MAY SIGN
WITH CHANGES YANKEES

Bill Collins, the ex-Tiger outfielder,
who drew his unconditional release
yesterday, will confer with Frank
Chance, manager of the New YORK
Americans, today. Collins believes
that he will be in condition to play
within a week, and he is eager TO
hook on with the Peerless Leader.
Bill has always been q great admirer
and booster for Chance, whom he
claims is the best manager In the
game Collins also declared that he
had two Federal League offers.
Jack Dunn wired to Newark yes
terday to ask for Bill Collinss hest
terms. but subsequently he decided
he could get along more cneaply by
using a pitcher in the outfield.
Now that Jack Dunn has begun to
Sell out his players, he has decided
to do the job clean. The latest re-
ports from Baltimore indicate that
Dunn will dispose of Gliechmann,
Shore. Ruth and Daniels TO big
league clubs and he is looking for
market for Danforth. Cottrell and
Ball Dunn intends to get rid of all
of his stars whether the league likes
it or not He is sore because the
other magnates refused to let him
transfer the franchise to Richmond
and the chances are that the Inter
national League will have to put A
team in Baltimore before long If
Dunn keeps UP his present stride.
Dunn says he has paid the other
clubs 5000 guarantees for two trips
and he wants the others to pay him
that amount on the Birds coming
Journey. Then he'll be even.

nifty catch in centre.
