MANAGER‘S TASK.
Managing a bull club largely rc-
volves around the proper handling of
the material at hand.
Last season the (Tfhhmgo White Sex
,‘flnished in 111111 place. It was the first
time in tho history of the A111erican
League that such :1 thing had hap-
pcncd.
Three, times prior to 11124 the club
had dropped to seventh place but
somehow it always managed 111
avoid the cellar.

heavyweight boxer. was successfully
operated upon at. St. Viuut 111's hoa-
11ilul yesterday to relieve the septic
prison preseme caused by numer‘
tus abscesses about his throat. De-

Cancels Title Bout.
Delaney is afflicted with the same
malady which caused the death of
Calvin Coolidge Jr. and Pancho
Villa the world's l‘lpwelght cham-
pion boxer. According to his physi-
cians. the boxer’s illness came as a
result of a severe attack of tonsil-
itis of which he was not entirely
cured when he left Detroit last
week.
Delaney has been forced to can-
cel his world’s championship bout
with Paul Berlenbach which was to
have been staged at the Yankee
Stadium September 11. Mike Mc-
Tlguc. former world's light heavy-
weight champion. was signed yes-
terday by Tex Rickard to replace
Delaney. it is probable that Delaney
will not be given a chance at the,
title until next summer. The bout is
eonslderrd too great; for an indoor
show and Delaney will have to run
through a series of preliminary eon-
test's before he will be able to reach
the form that has him the hardest
hitting man of his division.
