FIGHT PARAGRAPHSFO FOR "PUGS"

San Francisco today. Thomas first bout
will be at Colma on oct. %, with Dick
Fitzpatrick OF Chicago. Thomas and
Foley will return east after Christmas.
Tex Rickard, the Goldheld promoter,
denies the report he would offer another
$4,000 purse for Cans and Nelson. the
battle to take place az the camp. and
that he had made an offer of 900 that
Cans cannot defeat Nelson in 20 rounds:
also that he would match Nelson for S10.-
600 against any white lightweight In the
country.
Richard thinks Nelson the toughest boy
of his weight In the country. and speaks
I'm glowing terms OF his determined and
game fight against Cans. He candidly ac-
knowledges Nelson fought foul. and that
Nelson delivered the foul blow which lost
the fight
lie says Nelson admitted to him on the
train en- route from Goldheld 10 Reno
that he had fouled, but that II was un-
Intentional. and that he. Nelson. did not
believe the foul blow incapacitated Cans.

Another noteworthy feature of satur-
days contests was the almost entire abb
sence of taking-out time. OF delaying the
game for injuries or anything else.
But the spectre confronting every coach
today Is the ten-yard rule. IL Is
still claimed that the big contests, played
as they will be by teams nearly equal IN
strength will contain no scoring outside
OF possible iukes. unless a whole lot OF
strategy is devised 10 take the place OF
straight football
That is the burning question OF the day.

It is now too early. OF course, for the
exhibition OF anything durable in the line
OF strategy. Whatever ideas are already
entertained are being kept up the sleeve
with a view 10 further perfection

has been opened 70 a greater diversity
OF play than is at present generally re-

from the following: The rush line play

is TO prevent an entire change In the type
OF player ordinarily accepted for tackle
and guard? Why cannot these men be OF
the same type as the high back-heavy

be used in the forward pass game? Why
might not the entire line be used In forma-
