NEW FOOT BALL RULES
CAUSE COMPLAINT
No One Understands Code
Well, Therefore Violations
Are Numerous.

1t does not seem strange to those who
have followed this seasons foot ball
games that the foot ball official have
not noticed all the violations of the new
rules. The rules as new to the Off
Gals as they are to the players and the
coaches Complaint has been heard from
of this years elevens have not laid much
stress on the new rules and have instilled
the old system of foot ball into the play
ers before attempting to work out the
possibilities of the new play. In the last
games OF the season, when the officials
are more familiar with the rules. it is
likely that some of the teams will suffer
severely if they continue old gridiron
tactics.
The coaches are the foxiest members
of the foot ball family. and none of them
has given up all his time teaching new
foot ball at the expense of the old grid
iron principles. Capt. Palmer Il. Pierce,
l.. s. A., president of the intercollegiate
Athletic Association, stated recently that
at several of the colleges it appeared that
the coaches have not been giving the new
rules as fair a trial as they deserve.
While many of the battles thus far have
been more open than before, it does not
seem to the men who framed the new
code that the coaches are making the
most of the opportunities for a diversi-
fed system of play that the new rules
offer.
Several of the big elevens have stuck
pretty close. as close as they possibly
can. to old foot ball. They have been
backward about taking long chance
| with some OF the new plays. The forward
pass and the onside kick have not yet
been developed into as popular or skill
full means of advancing the ball as the
foot ball Doctors planned to have it.
Much blame for violation of the new
rules has been placed on the officials. but
from many quarters is heard complain,
about the old habit of pulling. pushing
and dragging of players being tolerated
| by officials. The duties of the officials

While the Cleveland club may be I'm
able to secure Harry Davis to manage the

ious to secure some one to take Jim Nc
Cures place. Mcclure has a two-year
contract but the Cleveland owners are
willing to pay him for the term of the ell

ii has confidence to manage the Maps.
Davis would make an ideal leader for
the Cleveland team. and as he has given

leader will not hesitate to give Davis

thereby. for in Hauser Mack has d grand

There was an effort made a year or SO

said at that time that he would not stand
in the way of Davis getting managerial
berth. and there is no reason for believing
that he has changed his opinion in the
matter meantime.

BY j. ED GRILLO.

Just now much stronger Jim McAieer
pitching staff will be next season, com
pared with what it was during the past
campaign. depends very largely on the
kind of ball long Tom Hughes is going to
pitch for the Nationals.
McAleer has pinned his faith in Hughes,
who he believes will prove a competent
running mate for Walter Johnson: AL
ways having had a warm spot for Hughes,
McAleer is particularly impressed with
Hughes performance last season at Min
neapolis and feels confident that he Will
be winner
1t must be realized that there will have
TO be Improvement shown i'll the Ma
tionals' pitching if the team expects TO
crawl ND in the race. Walter Johnson
was the only consistent performer. Refs
ling pitched good ball whenever he was
ca He'd upon. and Gray showed fash or
two. while Groom did his best work away
from home.
Dixie Walker did not come up to eXpec-
tations Because of his brilliant work in
the fall of 1919 il was figured that he
would give Johnson a close race for the
team pitching honors. But Walker did
not take his work seriously enough, and
unless this young man gets over the idea
that base. ball is conducted for the sole
purpose of giving him a summer vacation
he will not remain III the major leagues
very long.
McAleer will of course have a lot of
material to choose his staff from in the
spring. and it is to be hoped that he will
be fortunate enough TO pick up young
ster or two who can deliver some goods.
Promoter D. A Fletcher is either play
ing big bluff or he is going to cause a
lot of trouble in base ball. In view OF his
statement that he has ninety-two major
league players signed for his proposed
third league it seems strange that all
players who have been asked regarding
their connection with the movement make
fiat denials of having signed any con-
tracts.
He must be a wizard indeed II he thinks
that he can establish new circuit by
next spring. There are lot of ball parks
to be built and money to be spent before
the season can be opened, but Fletcher
seems to consider these but minor details

but for the purpose of making the clubs

back. AT an informal conference of a
number of club owners during the world S
series Ii was agreed that If an effort was
made to work such a scheme that no club
would give up single cent to Fletcher
to have him turn over contracts with their
ball players 1t would be dangerous to
establish such a precedent. for the game
could be worked every year.

THE CRACK
BRITISH GOLFERS
J. 6. Sherlock Beats Best Pro-
fessionaIs in Classic "NeWs
of the World" Tourney.

English critics are acclaiming James
George Sherlock, formerly of oxford
University and now Of Stoke Posis, the
most successful golfer of the present
year in British tournaments. For years
regarded as a player who only closely
approached in ability the professional
experts in the so-called first flight or
select circle, Sherlock has with Il sud-
den bound forged to the front rank and
has practically been inVncible since early
June Beginning with victories in the
OltOn and PortmarnOck tournaments.
Sherlock added another competition to
his credit in the qualifying round at
Stoke POgis. and finally topped all three
performances by emerging victorious a
fortnight ago from the severest test of
professional golf during the year.
1t was this latter competition-the
News of the World tournament at Sun
ningdale, one Of England's annual clas-
sics-that firmly established Sherlock's
claim to superiority. Close followers of
golf activity vii! appreciate the impor-
tance of Sherlock's victory when it is
stated that among the contestants in the
draw were such widely famous perform
ers George Duncan. Tom Ball, Harry
Vardon, j. H. Taylor, Alex Herd and
f.. Foord.
Sherlock was fortunate III landing i'm
the easiest quarter of the draw, but that
fact can hardly detract from his ultimate
success. From start to finish Sherlock
appeared to be playing We'll within him
self and to be quite capable OF a slightly
greater effort had the occasion REQUIRED
il. AS the tournament advanced Sherlock
met stronger opponents, yet he disposed
of them all with Consummatc ease
Surprising as it MAY seem, Sherlock's
easiest win came in the final match of
the competition against George Duncan
of Hanger Hill At no time was he
pressed to keel, the lead, and the con-
to go. Duncan was entirely off form
and showed little of the fine PLAYING
that had thrilled the spectators az tt,e.
previous days.
In reaching the final round Sherlock
defeated f.. Whitcombe of Dorchester s
and u: \. Herd of Huddersfield. > and !:

There We're number of other sur
prses furnished by the tournament. First
was the failure of James Braid, five
play. Another WAS the good showing
made by J. II. Taylor of Mid Surrey.
Despite badly injured wrist Taylor sue
ceeded in eliminating two opponents be-
fore he met Z. Hughes in the third
round.

State Fair at Pueblo

Never has Southern Colorado had an
opportunity to witness an exposition of
such attractions as will be presented at
the Colorado state fair, which opens in
Pueblo on September l9 and continues
one week. The fair promises to be the
largest and most comprehensive ever at
tempted in this section of the country and
undoubtedly will be attended by larger
in this part OF the west.
Besides the high class exhibits in large
numbers, one OF the most attractive and
instructive features will be the aeroplane
flights by Hilliard Beachie, an aviator of
note. Beachie is to fly three days-Tues-
day, Wednesday and Thursday and as
his contract specifies that he must fly in
order to earn his money and not content
himself with skimmine along the ground,
there is no question that the finest aero
plane exhibition ever seen in the Rocky
Mountain region will take place during
the State fair.
The fact that the big Overland park
racing meet ends two days before the
starting of the State fair makes possible
the securing Of some of the best runners
and harness horses in this section for the
fair races. The speed program as ar.
ranged is good one, and the purses are
large enough to attract horsemen with
good strings.
The horse show which is attracting
much attention already, especially of the
breeders and possessers of fine stock, will
be the best ever given at the State fair no
doubt, while the stock as whole, juds-
ine from the numerous entries, will be
more numerous and Of higher class than
in the past. Nebraska and Kansas ex-
hibitors daily are sending in their entries
and some of the best stock in the middle
west will be on show at the exposition.
The usual departments of the fair, such
as horticultural, agricultural, art, domes-
tic science and many others will be in
the hands of competent superintendents
and the exhibits promise to be of high
class. Irrigation is to be an important
feature and the finest displays of Irrigate
products and machinery ever shown any
where will be on exhibition.
