Number of Changes in

Boston, Mass. Oct. ct is under

Red Sox contemplates several changes
for next season. During the recent

in a claim for Jack Bentley. first
baseman Of the Baltimore club. who
batted $40 in the international
league this year.
Bentley is a left handed batsman
and thrower. he once pitched for the

that Of former campaigns. it is said
that Bentley may succeed him in

Bentley was the only player drafted
by Frazee, but the latter paid a
