in sll-around effectiveness, serving
steadily, returning service well, and
reaching everything at the net.
The winners started with a rush
characteristic Of each in singles, and
evidently TO be a feature of their new
doubles combination, judging from
their matches in the Rockaway tour
nament Pell and Mahan were over
whelmed in the first set, the bullet de-
livery of the national clay court cham
pion. Davis, and the bounding
nents guessing. In the second frame
the Tenahy Terror and the California
Bullet went astray on many of their
shots. and this factor. coupled with
a general improvement by Mahan un-
til he was up TO the level set by PelL
resulted in a turning Of the tables.
The third and fourth sets were sore
ly fought. with Pell and Mahan more
aggressive than in the first set. Led
by Captain Pell, Lieutenant Mahan
cbeyed orders in a rush for the net at

This proves only the more clearly that
wnat man does in a regular season,
shows very little Of what he will do In
a short series against a certain set OF
pitchers. His confidence against the
Philly pitchers would naturally be on
set by their closer study of his hitting.
Moran is a marvel at studying batters
and at coaching his pitchers. He made
some plumbers last fall chiefly because
Of bad Information given him by his
friends In Boston. There were two. at
least. instances. where his orders to
pitchers would have been thought cra1y
by American League managers who see
the players all year. But Pat has his

that Alexander could pitch four games,

Alex. Is more effective and smarter

him a ruined marvel when he went on
that wild barnstorm tour last fall. but.
instead Of running him as was reported,
II taught him a lot about pitching base
