Harry made no secret of his visit into the camp of the enemy. He is @ per- sonal friend of nearly all of MoGraw's players and called upon them before leav- ing. Davis thinka thin will be by far the most interesting of all the champion- ship fights, because the teams have met twice before and know each other pretty well. The Giants won in 1905 and the Athletics got even in 1911, when the bat of Home Run Baker became a historic piece ef wood. FEW CHANGES IN THE ATHLETIC! There is really little for McGraw to do in the way of investigation. The team that his club faces thie time wilt be almost identically the same as was faced in 1911. Btuffy McInnes will play frst dase inatead of Harry Davis and there will be a new face in the outfeld, but the pitchera will undoubtedly be the same—Bender and Plank, It ia up to those old vete to save the dey for Mack.

McGraw, on the other hand, has two new pitchers to show the Athletics, as well as a new left fielder and a new third baseman. Our new otartera are Damaree, Tearcau, Shafer and Burna, While tt is a dead heat between Shafer and Herzog at third, there le no doubt but that the others are added strength. Burns is stronger than Devore, and Tesreau and Demaree would be a power on any pitching staff, This will be the first time, by the way, that MoGraw has THE EVENING WORLD, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1918.
