FITzSIMMONS NOT
BOTHERED BY AGE

Although Bob Fitzsimmons did not
win his championship belt till he was
S5 years old, Jeffries, at the same age
was unable to come back"
Boxing experts have many adages
about youth being served and about
men having done their best work in
the first half of their thirties. In fact
there are no definite rules that apply
to all boxers.
Fitz held the championship undis-
puted for two years and he was 80
when Jeff was "a years old when he
beat Fftzsimmons at Coney island. He
was IS years, months and 10 days old
when Johnson whipped him in the
battle of the century," July 4. At So
he is an old man. At this same age
Fftz was in the zenith Of his great
power
After the two knockouts which JEFF
fries imposed on him, the Cornishman
went out and beat all candidates ex-
cept Philadelphia Jack O'Brien, with
whom he drew, until the total per-
iod of his existence Iotaled forty three
years. What other fighter in the his
tory of pugilism can claim such a rec
ord? None.
Fitzsimmons is to be considered all
the more extraordinary because of the
weight handicap which he suffered
after he defeated all the middle
weights. Never scaling more than ITO
pounds, he had all the punching force
Of men of fifty pounds more heft.

FOOTBALL TEAMS
TO WORK in SECRET

There will be a lot of secret prac-
tice in football this fall. 1t was SO
the last time the rules were revised,
and there is every indication that this
time will prove no exception. The
early institution of secret practice is
often unimportant. When new rules
go into effect many coaches start
secret practice at once, so as to con-
ceal their own ignorance and lack
of initiative and invention until such
time as they can get a line on what
other coaches are doing with the
game. Desperate fuses that for the
most part are never used are worked
out in secret practice and now and
then, but in general less time is put
In on tricks than the general public
would suppose. The principal value
of work behind closed gates in recent
pears has been the chance it afforder
pears has been the chance 1t afforded
day of the big game-a surprise to
this extent to ones opponent. Yet
there has been hardly a single in
stance in recent years in which the
news of the proposed change has
not leaked"
1t often happens that an especially
good play is tried out In the open
by the second team, or even by the
team Of some prep school feeder"
and in this way escaped notice. Some
years ago Yale defeated Princeton,
with play that had been worked out
unobtrusively by the freshman team.

FORUM RECORD

The record run from Fargo to Min
neapolis, starting from The Forum
building Thursday, Aug. is, by a party
Of Fargo men in an EMF car, prov
ed a decided success, the trip being
made in fifteen hours. Comprising
the party were Samuel Henry Roberts,
a Chicago attorney and owner of the
car, Fl. L. Hill and L. G. Farmer.
From Minneapolis the party went
to Mason City, Ia, making the entire
trip without an incident or an &C. tent
worth recording. At Mason City the
speedometer registered $50 miles from
Fargo, which distance was made ex-
actly within twenty -four. hours after
the departure from this city.
At that point Mr.. Hill and Mr.

so. They went on to Chicago and then
proceeded to Detroit, Toledo, Cleve-

While the time made between here
and Minneapolis did not eclipse pre-
vious records made between the two
cities, it proved all that had been ex-
pected by the members of the party.
A communication to The Forum from
Mr.. Hill, now at Lake Mills, Ia, states
that a most pleasant trip was enjoyed
and all parted company with deep re-
greet,
Members of The Forum staff ac-
companied the party to the city limits

CORNELL SQUAD
WITHOUT STARS

Ithaca, N. Y, Sept. S.-Ths Cor
nell football squad will get together
about the middle Of September. The
plans provide for partial practice at
least at Alumni field. The coaches
hope to hold regular practice for the
first four days of the week at the
practice field or Fairgrounds, while
on Friday the squad will move down
to Percy field. The games of course,
will be played there.
Head Coach Reed probably will
come to Ithaca within a few days to
look over the situation and arrange
for the preliminary details of the
work. The names of the other
coaches who will assist him in the
training of the leven have not vet
been announced, though it is said that
H. A. Duvall and A. H. Hutchinson
will be among the number.
1t is also expected that about a
score of the most prominent football
alumni will be back from time to
time.
Wants Heavy Ends.
On the line the Ithacans will be
without the service of Crosby, Hurl-
burt and Seelye at the end, though
Macarthur, Teagle Sutton and a num-
Der of others who tried out last year
will be eligible again. Coach Reed
favors heavy men for ends, and If
possible they will be developed.
Tackles Weeks and Lunk will be
eligible again and Stude and Loven-
try, both substitutes last year. will
also be out. OF the guards, Donovan
Will again be a candidate. O'Connor,
the other guard, will not be eligible
as he quit in midwinter. Seagraves, at
center, will again be a candidate and
Pfleffer, the substitute will be out
again. Delano, South and a few sub
stitutes will be eligible
owen, one of the varsity quarter
backs, graduated this June, but Burr
Woods may play. Butler, the fresh
man quarterback, is regarded as the
most promising man for the place,
though Baker, who started out we'll
last year, will be given a chance.
For halfbacks Cornell will have
Robb who toward the end of the sea-
son showed up as a first class man.
Krutsch, Hall and one or two others
from last years squad, with Bates
and O'Connell from the freshman
team. Captain Simpson will PLAY full
back again, with Gass playing either
as his substitute or else at one of
the halfbacks. Watson and Eyrich
and the line men from last years
freshman team also will be a good ma
terial.
