cording too Manager Rowland's present
plans, Benz has been pitching splendid

Bresslcr's work has been n decided dis

players are convinced that the big south

Confidence was Bresalers greatest asset
in 1919. while this season lack of con-
fldence has been apparent In his work
at all times. sheehan is Just the oppo-
site to Bressler This lad does not seem
to have as much as Bressler, but is chuck
full of nerve and confidence.
The work Of the Mackmen back of
Nabors yeFtefday was by no means good
and sthe sox had little trouble winning,
but Nabors poor fielding was largely re-
sponsibIe for demoralizing the rest OF the
team. This lanky\ Georgian was badly
ratified in his first major league start, but
showed enough to warrant another trial
IN the near future,
Manager Mack says that Bankston and
Davies will again be found in the out
