HANDICAP—BIack Gift lead* the pack to the finish in the Phila*
delphia handicap at Havre de Grace.
INDIANS ROUTED b> nuuuSi A
IN FARCICAL SERIES OPENER;
LINEUP REVAMPED FOR TODAY
In a baseball farce yesterday at the
atadlum, the Savannah Indians
dropped a game to the Augusta club
by the score of 9 to 2. Whether it
was the new infield, or whether it
was just a case of the boys having an
off day, the team, accompanied b’/
a smmphony of mingled base hits on
the part ot she north Georgia club,
and sandlot errors on their part,
played one of the sloppiest games
that could be credited to a team.
Even Eddie Moore and Zupanic
seemed to have difficulty in getting
together, and Zupanic, who usually
save* the day when his teammates
throw wild, was decidedly off his
game. Little Eddie Moore, whose
throws are invariably on the target
had trouble keeping them in the
park. All in all, the infield boys
had one of those days that every ath
lete knows and can’t explain, an “off
day."
The Augustans, behind the six-hit
pitching of Evans, played tight ball
and had the tribe always in check.
Getting started in the second inning
when after a perfect barrage cf er
rors on the Indians part, they scored
six runs. Cummings, first man up
popped out. Dietz went to first on
an Infield error, going to second on
a wild throw mUsed by Zupanic.
Adamaski got on base the same way
when Moore took his grounder and
threw wild, both Dietz and Adamski
coming home on the throw. Evans
singled, with Bennett getting on
first by infield error. Johnson then
singled, with Harper duplicating this

I ALEX MORRISON says:
You've heard so much about
swinging from the inside out that
you probably think that every
club should be swung in this way.
Well, clubs such as the mashie
'and niblick should be swung so
that the clubhead cuts across the
line of play from the Outside in.
This doesn’t mean that you
should make one swing for wood
clubs and long irons, and an en*
tirely different one for the lofted
shots. The main difference is in
the arrangement of your feet in
relation to the line of play. Dis
tance shots should find your feet
placed in a square or slightly
open stance.
Lofted shots should find a line
drawn over your toes running at
approximately a 45 degree angle
to the line of play. This angle
is shown in the accompanying il
lustration. Make your regular
swing and change only your
’stance, and you'll get better re-
( suits with the mashie.

feat also and then scoring two men.
Tucker, the new catcher, pegged a
wild one to Eliott and then let in an
other rcnner. This completed the
rout, and with the exception of the
eighth inning when they got two
more runs, the Augustans were con
tent to coast along on the margin
that they had acquired.
Garnering a total of 12 hits off
Lowe, the southpaw hurling ace of
the Indians, the Augustans played
tight baseball behind their star,
Evans and got off to the early lead
and game.
The hitting of McNeil, the left
fielder for the Tribe, was the only
redeeming feature of the local club.
Getting three out ot four, a home
run, three bagger and single, the
elongated garden player appeared to
not be worried one bit by the fielding
miscues of his teammates. Lunak,
who was switched to right field, put
one in. the left field stands for the
only other Indian run. There were
no men on bases at the time of the
two clouts.
Manager Bill Gould stated yester
day that he would revamp the local
line-up today when he shifts Hines to
third in place of Eliott, and takes
Thomas out of Centerfield, putting
Lunak in that particular spot, with
Hargrove in the right field position.
With the game starting at 3:30. the
quiet-spoken manager was assured
that today’s game would not be a
repetition of yesterday’s farce.
