SOME FOOTBALL sTARs.
EclxersaH of the Chicago University Is
the Hero of the Year.

sail, the great quarterback of the Chi
cago university eleven. is the football
nero of the year. Eckersall dlstln-
guished himself in Saturdays game
with Illinois by kicking five goals from
the field, an unprecedented perform
ance in the history of the Rugby game.
The Chicago quarterback punting
compares favOrably with the kicking
of Dewitt of Princeton and Hirsch-
berger of Chicago two of the greatest
punters in the history of football
EcxersalIs kicking has been the
feature Of ChicagO's play this season
The quarterback won the game for his
team against Wisconsin by dropping d
goal from the field in the last few min
utes of play, when it looked as though
the game was going to end in draw
EckerSau was prepared for Chicago
in the Hyde Park High school. This is
his third year with Stages Maroons
His kicking will probably figure extern
sively in ChicagO's game with Michi-
gan for the western championship on
Thanksgiving day.
Shuster of Lafayette is about the
only player on any of the big teams
this year who compares with Ecker
sail in the punting end of the game.
Shuster kicked three goals from the
field for his team in a recent game.
Newberry of Lafayette is another
great kicker. He dropped two goals
from the field in the same game that
Shuster kicked three.
Melzner of Wisconsin is another IA
nous kicker. He won the Minnesota
game for Wisconsin by dropping a
sensational goal from the field.
TOoker of Princeton is another
crack Dunter. He saved Princeton
from being whitewashed by Yale with
a spectacular field goal Saturday.
Lehman of Washington is the
crack punter of the local football
teams. He kicked beautiful goal
from the field for Washington in the
Missouri game Saturday
Captain Vincent Campbell of Smith
is the champion punter Of the Inter
scholastic league He kicked a goal
from the field for Smith in her recent
game with the Western Military acad-

Chicago. Nov. 21-So great is the in

Of Chicago teams for the intercollegiate

the last ticket had been disposed of there
were still thousands of persons clamor-

to whether he can make 1873 at any

Meanwhile, it will be just as we'll
to remember that a settlement is to
be reached with Mr.. Michael Sullivan
of Boston.
The Worlds Championship.
I can hardly understand why there
should be any difference of opinion as
to who was the first man to earn the
right to be known as champion of the
world, or as some may call it. heavy
weight champion of the world under
Queensberry rules.
A few years ago I wrote a book
entitled Kings of the Queensberry
n =
with the heavyweight championships
fought under the new rules. The af-
fair between Sullivan and COrbett
came first and here is the way I intro
duced the subject:
THE meeting between COrbett and
Sullivan at New Orleans on that Sep
TENDER night ten years ago signaled
the dawn of a new era so far as the
settlement of worlds championship
among heavyweights is concerned.
hapr1 0nnnT contests
for championship of various sections
before and also Queensberry contests
which determined worlds champion
ship in classes lower than heavy
weight This assuredly was the first
time in which two men had boxed un-
der Queensberry conditions for the
distinction of being voted the peer OF
all pugilists the earth around"
It appears to me that my reasons
for regarding the Sullivan-Corbett
fight as the first championship affair
under Queensberry rules are obvious
Sullivan not so long before that fought
Kilrain for the championship under
London prize ring rules and Won
After an interval Sullivan issued a
challenge in which he used the words:
'I hereby challenge any and all of the
buffers who have been trying to make
capital at my expense to fight me
either the last week in August or the
first week in September this year
1S92) at the Olympic club in the city
of New Orleans. for a purse of S25.-
600 and al outside bet Of 10000 The
winner Of the fight to take the entire
purse"
Sullivan gave the preference first to
Frank P Slavin. Of Australia: second
to Charles Mitchell. Of ENGLAND and
third to James J. Corbett- Of America
COrbett accepted the challenge and
the first clause of the article Of agree
ment signed by Sullivan and Corbeti
read; THE match is to decide the
heavyweight championship of the
world. a stake of $4,000 and a purse
Of S25, 1000" The men met on Soften
Der Z 1892. and Corbett Won in the
twenty-frst round.

TO Use HOLLOW OARS.
College Water Men Accept Rowing In
novatiOn for Service.

Philadelphia. Nov. 21.-Several of
the larger colleges are going in for
hollow oars for their water men, an
innovation that comes rather late in
the day, considering that other anna
tours have been equipped with the adj
vantageous sweep for several years.
A Harlem river oarmaker has re-
ceived orders from three universities
to make them hollow sweeps for use
next season. He viii not say for
which universities he viii build the
oars but it is known that one set Is
going to Poughkeepsie.
The reduction in weight over the
solid type of oar is sure to result in a
cutting down in time in next years
chief races. A crew supplied with
hollow oars is able to go much faster
without fatigue than a crew handi-
capped by the old fashioned sweeps.
1t is better late than never that the
rowing authorities of the big colleges
woke up to that fact.

while nothing has been learned Off
cially in regard to the permit for De-

assurance that they will receive the
necessary sanction. It is being told
around, in fact, that ten of the super

testing their willingness to vote for a
Conroth permit when the matter
comes up in council, and that it is on
the strength of this guarantee that the
Yosemite club managers are going
ahead with their arrangements. The

being that E1tzsimmons and O'Brien
