New System to Be Tried Out by

tho New York Americans the coming

Vaughn, Fisher, Caldwell and Warhop--
arc relied on to carry the team through
the summer, and they are TO be work
cd in turn with clock-like regularity
Manager Chase believes that Ford's
success last year was wholly due TO
the fact that lie did not pitch out OF
his regular turn lie positively refused
TO SO into the box unless he was alb
solutely ut and ready, With the re-
suit that he Was always at his best.
Under this method of procedure Ford
knew exactly when he was expected
10 pitch. and consequently nerved him
self for the task, Chase maintains
that if the other pitchers are worked
in similar manner. they will prove
vastly more effective and in this be-
lief he is supported by many close
students .of. the game. 1t is argued
that q pitcher cannot be expected to
tlo himself justice if he is suddenly
called upon to enter the box at time
when he is hardly ready for a gruclling
test.
