VA. SQUAD GOING STRONG

Charlottesville, Va, Oct. 4-Vir-
ginia's football squads have been
making good use of the bright after
moons this week in their preparations
for the Saturday game against
Princeton. Yesterday there was q
stiff scrimmage against the acrubs
and another will probably be held
this afternoon. Head Coach Camp

Tiger to as small a score as possible
Monday afternoon the varsity took
the lower Lefevre Field for signal
and dummy scrimmage practice while
Coaches Hawkins and Rinehart

field for the first scrimmage of the
season. With over 90 first year men
to be put into play i was hard ia

of any one of them but the coaches
spotted a good many youngsters who
showed promise of real ability. 1t is

Not only are the coaches and their

season? All of us will admit that the
next best club in the American lea
que was the st. oLuis Browns. We
beat them II out of % games. Ac-
cording to the standing Of the clubs
the Boston Red SoX was the weakest
in our organization. What happened?
We lost 13 out of % to the Red Sox.
I have a better ball club than
year ago, much better. | have pitch
ers' with more nerve. / have Babe
Ruth in condition. We lost three
straight games in 1921 when Ruth
collapsed and was forced to retire.
The boys felt that Babe was their
team. 1t is entirely different this sea-
son. Ruth remains the greatest MT
ter the game has produced but he won
many games when Ruth didn't get a
ball out of the infield. Babe, too, IS
showing different stuff. l never saw
such wonderful change in fellow.
He plays for the success of the team
and not for any Individual glory.
| have two pitchers on the club who
have asked me to pitch them in the
entire series. Last October two pitch
ers came to me on the morning, OF
the sixth game and told me they had
sore arms. Imagine pitcher with
sore arm, at least complaining of one,
during a worlds series. If there are
any around today they are not ap-
parent.
That's the spirit which won the
American league pennant for the
Yankees and that's the spirit you Will
see against the Giants.
We are not Understanding the
Giants. We haven't forgotten the
play Johnny Rawlings pulled against
US last year and Johnny was a bench
warmer. Such things happen in base
ball, A player sitting on the bench
when the game starts may become
the big hero.
We're going to bear down, play our
hardest and show them some real
pitching. With Joe Bush, Bob Shaw

Frank Baker, Mike McNally and sew

PENNANT RACES

New York, Oct. 1.-Two of the
greatest pennant races of years de
vcloped in 1922 in the National and
the American leagues.
Both New York teams were almost
a unanimous choice of the critics last
spring to repeat their feats of win
ming the pennants.
Both st. Louis clubs were also pick
ed as the logical contenders Tor en-
trance into the worlds series.
With five of the best pitchers In
the league and with heavy hitting
attack led by Babe Ruth and Bob
Meuscl, the Yanks were looked upon
last winter as a cinch for the pennant.
Crippled by the suspension OF
Babe Ruth and Meusel and hurt still
more by the collapse OF Sam Jones ana
Carl MAYS, the Yanks had to fight all
the way to keep in the race instead
of having an easy march to the flag,
No one figured the White SoX anG
the Detroit Tigers would make such
a good showing in the race and they
were the biggest surprises OF the
year.
With fine attack headed by
George SiSler and Kenneth Williams
and with some good young pitchers,
the Browns were considered grea:
contender and they lived up to
promise. The Foil team, under
capable leadership, played steady bali
all season and was always in the race.
When John McGraw secured Hernie
Groh from the Reds and Ralph Shin
ners. an expensive young outtleIder
from the Indianapolis American asso-
citation club, it was thought that the
Giants would have an easy time WIN
ming another pennant.
Some doubt was expressed about TT ;
ability of a veteran pitching staff 10
weather a hard race, but Douglas,
Barnes and Nehf looked like as good
a combination as McGraw could hope
to secure. -,
When Douglas went wrong, The
team was badly wounded and when
Barnes and Nehf failed to conc
through in the degree expected, only
the McGraw spirit was able TO pull
the team through the race.
The St. Louis Cards, figured the
strongest rival. collapsed late in the
season and the Pittsburgh Pirates,
which has been overlooked by nearly
all the poyesters, eventually proved 10
he the most dangerous opposition.
Change in the management of the
Pittsburgh team apparently solved the
problem. ,
Cincinnati and Chicago furnished
the surprises by the good showing they
made with young ball clubs.

MANY CHANGES IN
FOOTBALL RULES
(Rr Henry /. EnrrelO

New York. Oct. 4.-Contrary to
general opinion, there are more than
forty changes in the new football
code, according to Ernest c. Qulgley'
well known National League umpire
and prominent football referee.
Quigley in collaboration with CnaS'
b. Moran, fellow National League UNI
pire and coach of the famous Centre
College eleven, have written series
of articles on football that IS one OF
the best ever done.
One feature Of the series is an
explanation of the changes IN the
rules that is so well done it was used
at the recent meeting of football
coaches and referees held IN New
York to interpret the new changes.
One of the most important changes,
OF course, is the new method of scor-
ing a point after a touchdown.
The option of trying a kick, run
or a forward pass from formation
will result in the expenditure Of more
work for one point than has ever been
done before.
1t also will bring about the pos
sibility of losing a very valuable
player by injury for one measly lit
tie point.
Some of the eastern officials con-
Gdered that the changes made in the
rules for shift would make 1t I'M
possible for Princeton to use the
noted system of end play which Coach
Roper made such a success OF. Qulg-
lev, however, maintains that instead
of hampering that system Of end
play that the new rule opens more
and larger fields for its use.
Quigley is well known around the
baseball loop but it is not generally
known that he is law graduate and
that for fourteen years he was the
instructor in English, Latin and his
tory at st. Mary's College in Kansas.
He also is one of the foremost au-
thorities in the country on rules as IN
addition to umpiring in professional
baseball and officiating in football, he
is one of the officials annually at the
A. A. U. national basketball cham
pionShips.
Spike Webb, the boxing instructor
ut the L. S. Naval Academy, claims
10 have invented new punch which
he has styled the "navy double punch"
1t is a quick delivery of a right to
the Jaw and left to the body. ITO
work the combination it is necessary
to draw the opponent in by a series
of feinfs and when this happens, the
body is well shifted around to the
! left side in order to deliver a short
snappy backhand punch with the right
hand. This causes the opponent to
| raise his guard leaving the body open
for a left hook" Spike says.
1t is not patented. Anyone wanting
to practice on Jack Dempsey is wei
! come.
George Sisler is generally regarded
as the most likely candidate to ster
into the shoes of Ty Cob. The "Siz-
zler" has already started stealing
Cobb's records. Recently when he hit
record away from Tyrus that he hac
