letics The current academic year is witness
ing thorough change in this respect for all

letics. The current academic year is witness
ing thorough change in this respect for all
sports.
1.-THE evils of the intercollegiate sports con-
tinue without real diminution In particular,
the game Of football grows worse as regards
foul and violent play, and the number and
gravity of the injuries which the players suffer
1t has become perfectly clear that the game as
now played has become unfit for college use
The rules are such as to cause inevitably
large number of broken bones, sprains and
wrenches, even during legitimately played
practice games. What is called the develop
ment OF the game has steadily increased its
risks until they have become unjustiiable. 1t
should be understood, however, that the
players are not entirely responsible tor these
evils. They are swayed by tyrannieal public
opln1on-partly ignorant and partly barbarous
Ito the formation OF which graduates and
undergraduates, fathers, mothers and sisters,
leaders OF society and the various gamblers
and rowdies all contribute. A game which
needs an increasing number of men to watch
the players and to punish attractions of the
rules is not fit for genuine sportsmen. Extrava-
CANT expenditures for the teams throughout
the season, and by spectators at the principal
games, continue to disgust the advocates OF
simple and manly sports"
In reference to the proposed change in the
date of the great annual intercollegiate foot
ball match between Stanford and Berkeley, the
Daily Palo Alto has the following to say: "The
action of the Stanford representatives in favor
ing change of date for the great U. C.-Stanford
football battle is, to the casual observer totally
without reason. The scheme proposed is to
have the game played on the Saturday before
or after Thanksgiving. Surely neither of these
financially as national holiday. Be-
cause Harvard and Yale play on the satur-
day following Thanksgiving is no reason
that it is more successful date. That time is
secured simply because Thanksgiving day
comes but once, and there are two equally i'm
portant games to be played. Ii Berkeley and
ent arrangement ior midterm examinations at
both universities will be interfered with; if on
on the Saturday following, the vacation will be
so interrupted that many students would be
deprived of short visit home If the STAN
ford representatives acquiesced to this without
mature deliberation they might be reminded
slowly in the presence of acknowledgement OPP

than last Sunday Ia condition devoutly to
be prayed for), and as Byrne will also have had
the advantage of another weeks training, he
can be depended upon to render good account
of himself.
The men who have received time limits are
not to be overlooked, either. Goddard and
Swain are entered with a handicap OF a minute
and half, and some enthusiastic Bay Citys
pick the former, their clubmate, as q sure win
ner of first place. Others look to Pickard, who
has three-quarterS OF q minute, to take care of
the place prize quite handily; he has always
been noted as great road rider, but long dis
tances are more to his liking and he may not
show up well in this fve-mile race.
The Acme Club men are very enthusiastic
over this race. They claim to have at differ
ent times, held every road record of import
ance in the State, from one to hundred miles,
except the fve-mile record, and in explanation
of this exception they say the club has never
held a ive-mile race before. This seeming
egotism is quite pardonable, especially If their
intentions to-day do not go amiss and they
seizure this coveted record Under any cir
cumstances the race viii be very exciting and
well worth witnessing.
The Central Park track presents an interest
ing spectacle now in the afternoon and early
evening, when score and more of riders are
industriously training for the races to be held
at the Pavilion this month, and also for the
25-Tnile road race TO be run on Wash
ington's birthday. All the best class A and
class men are getting into condition for these
events, besides a number of novice men who
will prove uncertain quantities until their
speed is tested in an actual race, for many men

have it on the authority of member of the
prize committee that all the prizes for the
pavilion tournament to be held from the 18th
TO the 22d inst. have been bought and paid
for, so that the riders need not concern them
selves on that score. 1t looks now as though
the tournament and cycle show will be grand
success, and both racers and dealers, who have
heretofore been rather lukewarm about the
matter, now show an inclination to lend q
hand. The different local clubs have encour-
aged the affair from the start, which has had
much to do with its success thus far

OF view, had performed best during the rounds
boxed.
According to the way amateur boxing is now
carried on, the slogger with a great capacity
Tor taking punishment has the better chance
OF winning "the handsome prizes" that are
boxing bouts. In fact unless something is
done by the Amateur Athletic Union of Amer
lea to modify the rules relative to knockout
blows there will be little use for boxing in
structors in athletic clubs, as the students will
find that to win matches they must necessarily
go in and slug good and hard
Speaking of knockout blows, this is what
Champion James Corbett now of New York,
said recently to reporter in answer to the
question If fights couldn't be arranged So that
the knockout blow might be dispensed with:
"Yes, think they might. The referee could
be empowered with the authority to decide
fight on its merits before either man is knocked
out. That would be scientific sparring for
points and may in the near future supersede
the hn1sh prizeight, where the loser is knocked
out and unable to fight before the contest is
decided. Then, too, larger gloves might be
used. There is no earthly chance for man to
be injured with the gloves Steve and use in
might stagger q man, but there is no chance to
hurt him-you know what mean-break his
jaw or anything like that. With the large nine
ounce gloves and padded floor and ropes and
referee on points, priZe-fighting may become
popular again. But it wont be prize-fghting:
IL Will be scientific sparrlng. and the faint OF
barbarism, which still permeates man and
which is only stated by the sight of the flow of
blood. will not be satisfied. Am / right?"
Young Critic, the Australian lightweight,
shares with Corbett the feeling that prize-fght-
ing is doomed. In an interview in an Eastern
paper he says:
'First of all, Iwould advise all hands not to
fight for fun or for money. The game is not
what it's cracked up to be. Not by long shot.
OF course no man with any spunk will run
away. don't advise that course, either. So
lar as my fighting goes | am in the business
simply for the money there is in 1t. never
had an actual fight in barroom, and do not
for one moment desire to be classed as rough
and-tumble fighter.
"1ts good thing to know how to defend
yourself without a cannon or cleayer, and
man who knows how to box need never resort
to the gun or the steel blade That's why 1
say boxing is the most useful exercise OF any
on the calendar. If we had more boxing in
structors and more good boxers the officials in
the criminal courts would be on Easy street.
But boxing alone does not make man safe If
he is suddenly attacked. This is very true in
case the boxer is small man and the other
fellow is big man. There are few tricks in
the go-as-you-please game which are awfuily
useful at times. l mean TO say again that am
not advising any man or youth TO light Keep
away from it if possible, but il great, over
grown bully sets upon you, don't pull gun or
a knife"

BOXING.
What Knockout Blow in Strictly Amateur

What Knockout Blow in Strictly Amateur
Contests Means.
~ cannot understand this amateur style OF
boxing and the rules that now govern It," said
gentleman who had witnessed the late box
ing matches held under the auspices OF the
Olympic Club.
what would like to have is some informa-
tlon concerning the knockout blow, which
think is all wrong" continued the speaker,
"that is, so lar as amateur boxing is concerned.
"We will suppose, for instance, that two men
are boxing and that four rounds is the limit
One of the contestants who by way of illustra-
ton will call Jones, is a really clever fellow,
and his opponent, Brown, is wild slogger,
who filings his arms about like windmill in
the hope that luck will favor him at some
stage OF the game in Landing chance

hgnts cautious and avoids handsomely the
wild swinging blows that are aimed at his
nedo. he scores twenty points 10 the latter s
TOUR points in the first round. In the second
he doubles his credits, and in the third, in the
vernacular of the boxer, he fairly smothers his
opponent, who reels in groggy fashion and
almost falls from exhaustion when the gong
sounds the end of the round. In the fourth
ana last round Brown recuperates, so to say,
and In the widest manner he PUSHES at his OPP
head. By the merest fuke he happens to land
DloW on some vulnerable point and the re-
ceiver, Jones, falls to the floor dazed from the
effect, and is counted out before he has recov-
cred consciousness The referee, as is always
the case, will decide the match in favor of
Brown, the slogger, who had scored compare
lively nothing up to the time his chance blow
caught his opponent on the right spot and
thereby ended the mill.
"lf this is what you call amateur boxing, l
cannot understand why it is that professional
boxing clubs are not allowed to exist. To my
way OF thinking, the amateur rules that govern
boxing are in need of healthy revision, as
under the present system the slogger receives
all OF the praise and encouragement that is at
tached to the sport, while the scientific and
clever fellow must suffer from the pangs of de-
feat, and more particularly because he was
whipped by what the fraternity calls duffer."
There can be no such thing as disputing the
fact that the amateur rules which govern box
ing are in need of an overhauling and a change
for the better. This thing of boxing with q
premium attached to knockout blows should
be. stopped, as it savors too much OF profession
alism.
If knockouts must be tolerated there GER
talnly should be stated in the boxing rules
that certain number of points be allowed in
favor OF knockouts, and that the ecipient of a
bow which temporarily paralyzed his think
lng-box should be given sufficient time in
which to recover his equilibrium and continue
the contest until the end OF the fourth round,
when the points scored by both contestants
will be counted and decision rendered in
