Presentations were the order of the
day. Brother Elks, of Elizabeth, N. j.,
per Judge A. J. David, presented a gold
watch to Frank Bruggy, and about
5000 fans presented rain checks to the
gatekeepers.
Not long ago the five regular Yankee
pitchers went along in a succession of
victories without one being taken out.
Yesterday that successful succession
was completed again. Shawkey, Mays,
Jones, Bush and Hoyt in that order
each won his game without mishap.
"My arm was ailing a while back"
said Joe Bush yesterday. "That was
just after our second Western trip. /
worked good deal on that trip, in the
bullpen or in the box. The wing has
come back strong, though, and feels as
if it would go through strong to the
finish"
