That's the spirit which won the

see against the Giants.
We are not under estimating the
Giants. We haven't forgotten the
play Johnny Rawlings pulled against
us last year and Johnny was a
bench warmer. Such things hap
pen in baseball. A player sitting on
the bench when the game starts may
become the big hero.
We're going 10 bear down. play
our hardest and show them some
real pitching. With Joe Bush, Bob
Shawkey Waite Hoyt. Sam Jones
and Carl Mays. a manager has about
all that could be desired for four
games. wouldn't trade Wally

Changes on Delaware

HARRY JACKSON '

Special to Ths Evening Journal.
NEWARK, Dot A--oosoh NO
Avoy has made two important
changes in the lineup OF the var
sity eleven in an effort 90 strengthen
tho combination. The changes were
made in tho daily practice yesterday
afternoon and are the result OF a
careful study OF the work OF the
team against St. Joseph's College in
tho opening sams of the season, last
Saturday. -e~

II Is thought that this ohsngs wis

what they can do against Mullen

him. so it IS up 10 ''Buz" 20 hustle
for the job.
AS TO Lowell. his weakness in
handling ,punts in the St. Joseph's
game was probably more than any
thing else the cause or the change.
Coach McAvoy looks on<he handling
OF punts and running them back as
a very important part OF the game

manager OF the American League
champions came out fiatfooted and
announced that Joe Bush his bullet

this year. would do the Ringing for
the Yankees. John McGraw smiling
under tho glory OF HIS eighth Ma :
tional League championship said Il
was not his habit 90 show his hand
in advance and he refused 20 name
his pitcher. The dQpesters figured
that either Arthur Nehf, his south

ed early last summer by the. Cin-
cinnau Reds. would get the call TO
do tho mound work for the Giants
