ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION.
Amateur sportsmen may Organize

Amateur sportsmen in town are con-
templating organizing an amateur ath-
letic association which shall act as a CEN
trail body and pass on all disputes and
matters relating to sports. No other
sporting faction is presided over by an
association with the exception OF the
yachting and boating men, both of whom
have organized an association which con-
trolls Aquatic events.
The main object of the body will be to
insure the amateur standing Of its MEM
bers and to follow the lead set by the
American Amateur Athletic Union of de-
claring any person who has forfeited his
amateur status in any one branch OF
athletics, n professional in all other
branches OF sport.

FULL BACK PLAY.
Expert on This Feature of Assecia-
ton Football.

Although any one of ordinary capabil-
ity may, without previous knowledge of
the game, acquire in a few practice
matches a fair mastery of forward or
half-back play, the production of reli-
able full-back demands long and careful
practice. Old Rugby or intercollegiate
players soon show good form in this po-
sition of the field, but the accurate kick
ing necessary in back cannot be easily
acquired by one entirely new to football.
The work of full-back is almost purely
defensive. The golden rule for him to OBJ
serve is to kick the ball as soon as he
reaches it and to check all temptation to
dribble. Many a goal is thrown away,
and a game lost, by an otherwise good
back indulging in dribbling at a critical
moment. The back must never hesitate
to kick the ball forcibly at the very first
chance which offers. A player who does
this Immediately relieves the pressure of
attack and gets the ball among his own
forwards.
| Great pains should be bestowed upon
acquiring such precision that the ball
may be kicked with either foot and in any
position. Time and steady practice alone
will enable one to take the ball at full
pitch accurately and neatly, but when the
art Is dcQulTSU player Vdlue 10 his SlQt

l. The back should also be carefulsto know
the play of the halves in front of him. a
very general rule to follow when pressed
is for the half to take the man" Will,
the back takes the ball" When his goa
/ is in jeopardy back should rather kicl
the ball to his wing forward than in tn,
middle of play.
! GOAL KEEPING.
This department of the game is too FIRE
quently neglected. The goal-keeper oftel
disdains the somewhat irksome practic
necessary for perfection and hence tn
miserable displays so often witnessed.
Goal keeping is quite one of the mos
important positions in the field as tn
smallest mistake on his part spells dis
aster. A half may fail but can again re
turn to the attack. The back may b
passed but has the knowledge that ther
is still one more defender of the citade
The goal-keeper is beaten and all the e1
fcrts of his side have availed nothing.
The great rule for goal-keeper to RI

possible. He can then take a punt kic
