Will Davis, formerly the possessor of the regular left tackle position, was secretly switched to running guard Wednesday in the eventuality that Houston could not play.

Stretch mazzone alternated with Fred Harvey at right end and will probably be sound enough to face the Indians...
Charley Roche, Jim Noonan, Carl Bottenfield, John White, Bill Healey, Stretch Mazzone, Howie Houston, Will Davis, Sam Butler, Art Connelly, Phil Isenberg, Bob DiBlaslo, and Don Kaplan were all injured in yesterday's game.
