WILL TAKE COLLEGE
NAN TO WHIP JEFFRIES
Athletes Could More Prohtably
Devote Time to Boxing than
Football.
ST. Louis Republic.

ST. Louis Republic
Although we hear much about the i'm
possibility of finding man to defeat JEFF
fries said Frank Hart, II believe there
is one set of men, among whom we could
find a tough opponent for the champion,
and that is among the college athletes OF
eff college men would give the same at
tention TO fighting tLat they do TO foot
ball they would cause 4 revolution in the
sport. Suppose Hogan, of Yale, or De Witt,
of Princeton, had expended three or four
years learning the fine points of boxing.
Wouldn't he have been likely to apply his
knowledge more scientifically than a big,
clumsy fellow like Jeffries, who has poor
education and learns things only by hav-
ing them punched into him?
Then, how about the revenue Of the
game? If Hogan or Dewitt were as well
known as amateur boxers as they now are
as football players, wouldn't they nave
plenty OF change TO pick up big end of a
SIS eco purse for fight with the cham
pion? Wouldn't the house that would turn
out for such contest be ecord-breaker?
1T is all right to talk about the game
being brutal, and that no gentleman would
go into ii. A few years ago gentleman
would have considered himself degraded
by becoming a football coach. Yet Yost, of
Michigan, man independently fixed in this
worlds goods, keeps teaching the game for
the love of it.
as an occupation a short time since. But
many college men go on the stage nova
days. Professional baseball was a tough
game a decade ago. But we have college
men now on all the teams.
IF they take up these branches of work,
isn't it a silly piece of affectation to keep
out of pugilism; just think of the money
they could make if they had any ability
at ali. An intelligent fellow could walk
all over a lot of these men who now hold
the center of the pugilistic stage. Would
a thick-headed guy like Peter Maher have
much chance against an intelligent young
fellow of natural gameness, with fair box
ing ability?
IF some of those leading football players
would take up pugilism, they would find it
a big source of revenue. They would have
to devote several years to the game, of
cOurse-about the same time they give to
football But if they spent one-half the
time learning boxing that they do on the
gridron and would employ equally compe-
tent teachers l believe that the big Eastern
colleges could produce world-beaters."

do you know" says Tommy" that
crowds nowadays are a cold-blooded lot.
One thing for sure-the modern fan. even
though he may love the game with all his
soul, is much less of sentimentalist than
he used to be. Moreover, he has not long
er the implicit confidence in favorite play
ers that he used to have.
I'm the bygone days, when Arson,
Brouthers. Connor. Tip O'Neil, or Brown
ing came striding to the plate, with the
heavy bat in hand, with three on bases and
two out in the ninth the crowd would give
a joyous shout of welcome and then the
fans would settle back, almost childish in
their complete trust and happiness-abso-
lutely certain that the great batsman
would put the ball far out in the deep
woods, and never dreaming of his failure.
If he hit 1t the stands would go wild If
he didn't there would be feeling of dis
appointment like the swapping of 10000
the next day with confidence fully restored
and the same implicit belief in the men they
loved
How is it nowadays? Why, the stands
are full of colG-blooded, cynical calculators,
who figure out the chances like a pawn
broker counting up interest. Even if Wag-
ner comes up in the crisis the fans will
say: He only has one chance in three of
hitting II safe. and 'Matty' is going to put
on extra steam. Instead of trustfully wait
ing for him to hit it, they fully expect to
see somebody trap the batter's effort and
instead of being heartbroken if he fails
they only remark: Just what was to be
expected and go home to supper.
"Oh, yes-the game is popular. and draws
the crowds-but the crowds have differ
ent hearts, somehow or other from the
people Of the long ago."

FINANCIAL QUESTION
STANDS IN THE WAY

While the chances of Indianapolis hav-
ing an athletic park are not very great, be-
cause of the great expense attached to such
an undertaking, it is to be hoped that the
Y. NJ. c. a. athletic department will realize
it's dream in this matter. Indianapolis
needs such a park for athletic events. If
a suitable location could be secured where
big field day track meets, amateur ball
games and high school and college foot
ball games could be played, II is believed
the revenue would more than pay the cur
rent expenses. and that the park would pay
for itself in a few years. But where is the
$3.50 or so that is needed to carry out the
plan to come from? Those interested in
the scheme would not scorn a proposition
from public-sprited citizens to build the
park or endow 1t. II is the idea to form a
stock company with the Y. NJ c. A. and the
athletic departments of the two high
schools as the principal stockholders. That
IS a good idea, but SIS, 900 is a big bunch of
money. Ground could be purchased and
mortgaged to obtain money to build the
track and stands, but still that is not a
very good plan. 1t seems as if the financial
question is the only one that stands in the
way.
Ii is the intention of the Y. NJ c. A. to
secure control of all amateur athletics so
as to decide the eligibility of all contest
ants and settle all disputes. Y. NJ c. a.
athletes are under the control and juris-
dictiOn Of the A. A. L. But so are athletes
of high schools and colleges who participate
in contests of local, State or national ma
ture. The Y. Nj. c. A. might be able to
control the high school lads, and it would
be a good thing II college athletes could be
under the same control, but il is believed
this would be hard to do in view of the
fact that college men know the rules of the
A. A. u, and they might not take kindly
TO another organization trying 10 control
their athletic affairs.

APOLLO-LIKE FIGHTERS

Jack Sullivan Says Few Ring

physical culture charts other than the
possession of abnormal strength.
''This young man, it is said, is built
more on the long, rangy order, with none
of his muscles developed exceptionally
strongly. Yet, he possesses the physical
strength necessary to let him score more
points in a physical contest than any man
at Harvard, regardless of how little ne
would score according to an anthropome-
trio chart
This fact is being commented on by the
Eastern papers. Yet how many of the best
fighters in the American ring would con-
form to the generally accepted ideas of
physical perfection? How many would
stack up with the Apollo Belvedere or with
the average physical measurement chart?
who would do it.
Take Abe Attell and Syracuse Tommy
Ryan. Both are exceptionally quick on
work in their battles. AS a result both
have abnormally developed and we'll
muscled legs which seem far too heavy
for their bodies. BY contrast, their torSoS
seem puny and small
Now take Young Corbett, James J. Cor
bett and John L. Sullivan. All are or were
wonders Of the ring, yet all had legs too
thin in proportion to their build. Young
Corbett's legs not unduly thin, but his
shoulders are developed so much that his
lower extremities seem all out of proper
ton.
Jim Corbett's legs always were slender
for a man OF his size. So were Sullivans
AS for Bob F1tzsimmons. his build would
lead one to believe that he was weakling
rather than one of the hardest hitters in
the ring. Jeffries can't be used for an ex-

some parts of his frame and unduly light
in others-his legs, for instance.
ITO find a perfectly proportioned man in
Eddie HanlOn and frankie Neil come near
er to the generally accepted type of what
constitutes a well-built man than any other
fighters. Joe Walcott is of a nuggety,
lumpy build that gives the impression of
power, but that is not what could be called
build and would, come closer to the stat
ueSque type than most fighters. Little
Johnny Regan is nicely built, but is rath-
er too rangy in appearance. Feltz is beau
tifully proportioned, but is just a trifle too
heavy around chest and shoulders.
Sizing the men of the modern ring I'D
we find that it is hard to pick out one even
approaching perfection in a physical way.
OF course, the fact that they are always

I'VE find many who are perfectly formed

field athletes. But the average fighter has
