destroyed his famous machine.
Crawford began his record in
1918 when he played 1853 games
with Detroit. In 1914 lie engaged
in 157 games. in 1915 he played
every game of the 156-game

three games in 1916.
Collins ability to play in this
number of games attests to his
wonderful constitution as well as
to the remarkable care he takes
of his health the year around. He
is never i'll and has not, during the
last few years suffered an acct

a game. This is a tribute to his
great natural ballplaying abilities
rather than that he is extremely
careful on the field. Fact is, Col
