WOOD MAY PITCH
IN OPENING GAME

Philadelphia. Pa, Oct TN the first
game Joe Wood. speed king and pitcher
extraordinary. will oppose Pat Moran's
best bet. There will be a battle
worth while. IL dope holds true. Wood
has been pitching wonderful ball this
year He has not pitched often. but
when he has marched to the rubber
to start a game this season the game
was almost as good as won.
Everybody expects both Alexander
and Wopd to pitch wonderful ball
against each other. However, 1t is
the unexpected that usually happens.
and for this reason the prophecy is made
that II Joe Wood meets Alexander. the
game will prove anything but tight

STATEMENTS OF PILOTS
BY BILL CARRIGAN,

Manager OF the Boston hed So1.
No one has ever beaten a Bos-
ton club in a world series battle,
and I am hopeful that my boys
won't permit a smashing Of ira
dition. In battling against the
Phillies / realize that We are
facing a fighting ball club. But
we won't go into the battle feel
Ing any fear, not even over
Grover Cleveland.
He's a wonder, but we've beat

tions my whole team is in good

My boys are ready, and they
are In shape to put up the great
est battle of their careers. They
are confident and they are eager.
They are full of fight, and a team
filled with such a spirit is a hard
proposition to beat. am not
predicting that the Phillies will
win. Predicting is not in my
line, but I will say that II the
boys are beaten in this series it
will be only because they have
battled against the greatest ball

MAN WITH "PUNCH'
ExCITES ADMIRATION
OF MODERN WORLD
Rev. w. O. StOvall Cites Ex-
ample of Great Ty Cobb
and Issues Call to Rich
mOnd Citizens.

The world admires the man with
punch" who does things in straight
forward manly way said the Rev. w.
O. Stovall at the First Baptist church
yesterday. Rev. Mr.. Stovall said in
part:
l do not think that the expression
has yet been accepted as correct Eng
lish, but there is no more concise and
clear description of man Of virile, ro-
bust and direct effectiveness than to
hear men say he has punch" They
mean by that that there is something
about his personality and way of do
ing things that defeats opposition and
gets results. He is not thinking of
the grandstand or the picture ma
chine. but Of striking the decisive
blow.
See a man like Ty Cobb play base
ball. 1t is not merely ball game. 1t
is the energy. the skill, the alertness,
the mental power of one who is fit. 1t
is every faculty of a thoroughbred
ready for quick response to every de-
mand of the game.
