BOXING IMPROVES
FOOT BALL PLAYERS

NEW HAVEN. Conn. December %
According to a statement made by
Nose King. Yale boxing instructor in
in the playing of Hobbs. the big Yale
tackle on the foot ball team this season.
was due principally to the amount Of
time he put In in boxing. In previous
years Hobbs was regarded as a sort of
mark by the men who played opposite to
him in the important games.
Hobbs came to the boxing room early
in the season." said King, and he
weighed 223 pounds stripped He looked
big and clumsy, but / never saw a man
work as faithfully or as hard as he old.
He boxed every day and did a lot of other
work down to 1856 pounds. Boxing work
ed wonders for Hobbs. and IL will do "a
much for any one.
Coy put out his hands III scrimmage on
the field? He put them out just like
trained boxer, and he has boxed since he
was little chap. He did not box here
with me, but lie boxed when he was at
the Hotchkiss School at Lakeville and
old Yale boxing teacher used to make
the rounds of certain prep schools and
give lessons, and when he struck Hotch-
Kiss he always put the gloves on with
Teddy Coy. The latter on the foot ball
field has all the movements Of a boxer.
Another boxer on tho team is Ham
Andrus, the big guard. Coy. Hobbs, An
drus and Fitzpatrick, all boxers, appear
IN waiter Camps roll OF honor. Wrest-
ling Is another great help to the foot
ball men. as witness Dutch Goebel of
our team and Paul Wilmington OF Har-
ward Goebel is the heavyweight cham
pion here and Wilmington is the champion
at Cambridge

COMING TRACK STAR.
Will Dick Making Good With
Michigan Athletic Squad.

1t seems as If Michigan is getting it's
share of the high school athletes of this
city. 1t also seems If an athlete en-
teriug the northern college usually makes
good in college athletics.
Many are acquainted, with the perform
ances of MaGoffin and Linthicum ath-
letes at Michigan. but few are aware
that VIII Dick, captain of the Central
track team in 1908. and one of the best
half-milers ever turned out of Central. is
displaying excellent form as runner
at this college. His performances have
been SO we'll thought of that he recently
received honorable mention in Detroit
paper as one of the best men enrolled
in the squad. This is Dicks second year
at Michigan. and with few seasons
training under Coach Keen Fitzpatrick
he is bound to develop into one of the
foremost track stars in the intercollegi-
ate world.
Dick started his track work in 1903 I'M
der the direction of Coach Foley, who
has had the Central squad in hand for
several years, and by faithful training
learned the rudimentS of the run
ming game. He paid strict attention to
Mr.. Foley's mode of coaching, and soon
sprang into the limelight as a point win
ner for the Centralites when the spring
meet was closely competed and each
point was counted a whole lot. He also
won several points for the o street school

Cyclone Johnny Thompson's recent vic
tory over Fighting Dick Hyland at Kan
sas City did not come as a great sur
prise to the average New York fight fan.
They expected 1t. Hyland's showing
around this city was but fair. while the
Old Sycamore beat Mickey Cannon. who
at the time was considered absolutely the
best lightweight in Philadelphia, II not in
the east An hour after he had lain low
tho ruggedsGannon at the National Ath-
letic Club, he could have commanded am
pie backing to meet the elusive Mr.. Nc
Farland or the equally boring Mr.. Mel
son in long bout. And it was real
money. In six. eight or ten rounds,
most Of those who saw Packy make his
fashy showings in New York naturally
figured Mcfarland could outpoint Thomp-
son. but in twenty-five 1t might prove a
different matter. At the latter distance
either Nelson or Mcfarland would likely
have their troubles, providing there
weren't weight stipulations that would
cripple Thompson's chances at the start.
The last time Thompson and mis- manager.
Larney Licthtenstein. were in New York
sure Johnny can beat-Packy Mcfarland.
Perhaps not In ten rounds. but at twenty
five we are willing to wager our money.
At a short distance McFarland's speed
and science may carry him through to a
shade decision, but over the Derby route
it's a pipe. He can't hurt Johnny with a
stick He might lab him a few times,
but he would grow tired after certain
number of rounds, and then the Cyclone
would wade in and knock him out. You
can go bet on It.

dangerous play in the foot ball repertoire
1t was adopted by the foot ball rules
committee because it had been insistently
urged by three or four colleges whose
foot ball coaches had been careful
observers of basket ball and were of
opinion that passing the ball forward
could be Incorporated into American foot
ball with good effect
1t remained for Yale first to show what
the forward pass could do in the first
year in which it was legal. and after
Yale had demonstrated how it could be
used every college and university in the
United States set about finding a plan for
defense against 1t.

in this year at the Jacob Tome and
Episcopal High School meets. He con-
tnued his-good work throughout the next
few years. Dick was kept back one year
and was elected captain of the Blue and
White squad in 1905. Under his leader
ship the school received several banners
and cups, as that year the squad was
very successful and won several Of the
track competitions in and around town.
When Dick left Central he was the last
of that class of athletes which had made
Central famous in track circles for a
number of years. Mr.. Keen Fitzpatrick,
who has the Michigan track team in
hand this season. is giving Dick personal
attention in his track work. and, as the
former Central athlete is an apt pupil.
he is bound to be at his best at the end
of this season or next year.
As has been stated Dick was very sue
cessful a leader while attending Cen
SSal, and if he continues at his present
rate AT Michigan it would not be at all
surprising to see him land the captaincy
Of the track team at the northern COL
Iege before he terminates his course in
1912. If he is SO fortunate. II certainly
will please the many friends he has made
at Central and his college chums at
Michigan.
