Loss Of Toney and Douglas
Weakens Giants Pitching
Staff Considerably
MUST USE KID B0xMEN

Through the loss Of two of their best
pitchers, Fred Toney and Phil Douglas,
the Giants come to the World Series
with n pitching staff inferior to those
which Manager McGraw has assembled
in the majority of the title clashes in
which he has directed team.
Toney. though nearing the end Of his
usefulness, was rated as the fourth
best pitcher in the National League last
year. His failure to get into condi-
tion on time and keep primcd caused
McGraw to cast him loose without re-
straint. The Douglas incident. which
resulted in the big fellow being ousted
from organized baseball for life. was
a late development Of the season.
Douglas pitched the Giants to two
victories and one defeat against the
Yankees last year, but Toney was less
effective. being knocked out by the
American Leaguers' "Murderers Row
both times he was started. the first
time in the third inning and in the
Unless McGraw introduces some of
his youngsters, which he will be reluct-
ant to do. the burden Of carrying the
Giants through this series will fall upon
the shoulders of Virgil Barnes and
Arthur Nehf. with McQuillan playing
the third fiddle. Nehf lost two Of his
three starts in the last series and Barnes
triumphed in his only two attempts
McQuillan was not with the Giants last
year.
Nehf and Barnes both showed effec-
tiveness in the 1921 series. and in doing
so confirmed what has been generally
the case-that a team which can slug
its way through 154 game champion
ship season is quite docile when 1t faces
u continuity of good slab work.
To illustrate: The Yanks last year
bntted team average of 300 through
out the season. and even then were
fourth in the league rating. which ran
from .316 for Detroit to .274 for Phila-
delpha. In the World Series the
Yankees batted only 207, and in five
of the eight games they were pitted
against Barnes and Nehf, who stood
eighth and nineteenth. respectively. in
the National League pitchers rating.
And on that Yankee team were five
men of the 300 or better batting class
Ruth. .37s; MAYS. .343; Meusel. .31S.
and Ward. .3O6. and Shawkey. 300.
Mays and Shawkey are included be-

LAWN IS PLEASED
WITH ST. JOSEPH'S
Coach Satisfied With Tie Game
Played Against Delaware
Football Team

The st. Joseph's College football
eleven will begin some real hard work
today in preparation for the Penn Mill
tary College game, which will take place
next Saturday at Chester.
Head Coach Johnny LAWN was
pleased with the showing of his men In
the game with Delaware on Saturday,
which resulted In a - deadlock.
When 1t is taken into consideration
that the Stiles streeters got an excep-
tionally late start this season, having
begun practice sessions fully two weeks
after most colleges were hard at work,
LAWN has cause to rejoice.
The way the local collegians fought
when the enemy was in the shadow Of
their goal line, their alertness in taking
advantage Of opportunities and the
plucky way the Stiles strceters out
played Delaware in the second half.
after having been outplayed by Coach
McAvoy's eleven in the first half. augur
well for a successful season for the
LAWN team this year.
Several fnults in the Crimson and
Gray's attack and defense cropped up in
the game Saturday, and LAWNS job
this week will consist in ironing out
these wrinkles.
