BRIDGEPORT BOYS
 WIN WITH EASE

In the five mile relay race last ev- enine at the Park City rink Harry Burke and his partner. Bert McMa- hon. made a good fight and it was only won after a hard struggle from the Waterbury team. H. H. Chatfield and Walter Hayes. the latter of this city. fought every inch of the distance and were only beaten by one lap and a few feet The time was very fast. which was Is minutes and & seconds. In the preliminary race Dick Barrett de- feated Sammy Cohen by a short dis tance. making the mile in 3 minutes and 12 seconds. which is very good. Both these boys put up a very excit- ing race. with Cohen in the lead. Near the finish Barrett passed him and with a little sprint won out cas- fly.
 In the five mile relay race there was some fast work. although the Wa terbury team tried thek best to win out. In the 11th lap Sf the fourth mile Chatfield fell. bruising his knee. causing Burke to pass him and mas- ing a fifteen foot lead on the Water bury boys. Chatield picked himself up and tore after his opponent like q lion with fire in his eyes. but could no: seem to gain an inch. In the fifth lap of the fifth mile the Bridgeport team were in the lead naking their lap and they finished very strong.

 It was Captain Nesbitt. of West Point. who crystalize6 the opposition to the present style of football. Since the death Of Cadet Byrne the authori- ties at West Point have given a great deal of attention to the elimination of fatal plays from the modern game of football and suggestions made by the West Pointers embody the ire forms" that will probably be adopted
 A canvass of the sentiment through out the country, shows that 57 institu- tions were in favor of a reformed" game; 26 favored the abolition of ehe game altogether; while only five were in favor of retaining the present game unchanged In view of this over wheiming sentiment 1t is believed the rules committee will make radical charges that vii insure an open game with mass plays absolutely barred and with the dangerous clements of the forward pass so modified that the danger from injury from that play will be eliminated
 It had been expected that the asso- citation would favor a changing of the rules regarding goals but no such ac- ton was taken.

The fact that Fred Daly. the Yale football captain-elect, lives in Cam bridge and ate his Christmas dinner hard by Memorial Hall. has caused many people to wonder why he did not go to Harvard instead of Yale. The facts are interesting. and reflect nei- ther on Harvard nor on Daly.
 As a working boy. with little more than a grammar school education. em- ployed at the Riverside Press. Daly nursed the idea of a college education as a dream that probably could never come true in his case, although he would not give up his dream.

Pittsburg, Dec. 29.-Pressed into the ring at the last moment last night to take the place of Charley Goldman. who had not appeared, Patsy Branni- gan, of Pittsburg, had Q shade the best of Phil McGovern in sfN-round bout. It was one of the SpeedieSt tCuts seen here in some time. Gold man, who had been barred by the police because he had not arrived twenty-four hours before the fight, reached the ringside as McGovern and Brannigan entered and he almost wept when refused permit to go on.
 The crowd, however, was better pleased with BranniSan. than they could possibly have been with Gold man. for in the fifth round McGoveIn was in distress and in the sixth he was knocked down clean It is pos sibIe that McGovern held the local fighter too -cheaply- In the first four rounds matters were even-

Changes that are probable in the reformed" game of football in 1910 will be:
 One-PIayers will be prohibited from dragging, pulling or pushing the players carrying the ball. They will be positively prohibited from p&ng upon q fallen player and the man carrying the ball will be pro- hibited from making an effort to advance the ball after he is down or the ball is legally "downed."
 Two-When a player is in a pos ition to make fair catch. no op- posing player shall approach near CT than three yards of the catcher until the latter has been touched by or has missed the ball.
 Three-Requiring on the offense five men toebe on the Scrimmage line while in plays across the line of scrimmage not more than three men shall be allowed to cross to- gether.
 Four-The present forward pass will probably be eliminated and a forward pass substituted that will be entirely unrestricted. to be com pleted behind the line of scriIn- mage without penalty for failure
