BILL CARR|GAN MAY
 MANAGE YANKEES
Former Pilot of Red Sox and
 Eddie Collins Are Mentioned

New York; Oct. l0.--Miller Huggins is apparently done as manager of the New York Yankees. Eddie Collins, the veteran second sacker Of the Chi- cago White Sox and William carri- gan, who piloted the Boston Red SoX to the highest honors In baseball are most frequently mentioned as success sor to little Miller.
 Huggins, with a really great pitch ing staff and team which played alright baseball the season through, saw his favorites go down to defeat in the world series without winning a game, record which is only equalled twice in the history of base ball, when the bustling Braves busted the Athletics in 1914 and in 1907 when the Cubs beat the Tigers. It was the second consecutive world series defeat for the Yankees and coming the second time from the Giants considerably lowers the pres tige of the American league in New York
 Huggins may be able to hang on to his job as manager. It was reported last year. immediately after the end of the big series, that the Co.'s. Rup- pert and Huston were going to decor ate their field leader with the Order of the Can, but this report was de- nied. It was said that Miller would be given another chance.
 Handled Team Poorly.
 u. !, a carefully purchased flock of base balers, who apparently govern their own system of ball playing, the Yan- kees were just able to nose out the St Louis Browns in the American league race by single game margin. But it was not until the Tanks got into the battle with the McGraw out fit that the handling of the club from the bench became conspicuous and the Tanks gained more fame for do- ing what they should not have done than for doing the right thing at the right time.
 Whether or not the Tanks can se- cure either Collins or Carrigan to handle their 1923 club is uncertain and the results these two veterans might get is mere conjecture But certain it is that either would get more baseball out of the Yankees than Huggins has developed.
 It is said that the Colonels who own the Tanks, would rather have Bill Carrigan handle the team than Collins for the very important reason that their most temperamental star and fence buster, Bambino Babe Ruth, got his major league schooling under the former Holy Cross catcher and aus wholesome respect for hls for- ner boss. Carrigan convinced Ruth. while the pair was with the Boston Red Sox. that he was the big boss md Babe will never forget that fact.
 Ability Well Known.
 In addition to his handling Qf Ruth, baseball men admit there is not nore clever manager in baseball to- lay than Carrgan. They say that Bill $ a strict disciplinarian, insists on lis players being in perfect condition md that he has forgotten more ln- ;ide baseball than some managers ,now. That's saying a mouth1ut, put sometimes baseball men are trihe ,areless.
 Carrigan might go to New York al hough he has often refused to take ID the reins over the Red Sox. He vas interested in banking and the heatrical business in Lewiston, Me, md doing well, it was reported nut ecently he disposed of his holdings O some extent. New York is able o pay Bill the money, provided that g what he wants, but it is under tood that Maine's homely home life meals more to Carrigan than money.
 Collins, smart ball player, might nake a great manager. Whether or rot he could handle club remains Q be proven but Columbia Eddie ,nows the game from A to z, is noted or his never -say-die attitude on the leld and is highly respected by other players. If he joined the Tanks he would be a playing manager.
