Syracuse, who held the middle-weight
title after Bob Fitzsimmons relln-
uuished it. Ryan is close student
Of fstiana and is able to give an in
telligent argument in its favor. The
other day he was quoted in this man
ner:
THE question has often been put to
me, What is prize fight II it isn't
brutal Other persons want to know
why the boxers pull and haul, hit in
the clInches. and so forth, or why
man will strike his opponent when
the latter apparently is only half or
the floor. Still others want to know
why the boxers shake hands at the
start and at the end Of a bout and
what is the sensation when man is
fioored or knocked out.
First of all, would say that there
is no such thing as a prize fight.
That word is Inisnomer. Thirty or
forty years ago it was different, for IN
those days men fought with the bare
knuckles, and the sport was brutal,
but the name prize fight has STUCK
to the present day, and what some
people persist in calling prize fight
is nothing more or less than a scien
tific exhibition Of the art OF attack
and self-defense, and Of the same ma
ture as any other exhibition of sport
which Is won by endurance and skill
The exhibitions are not brutal.
Boxers pull. haul and hit in
clinches because some Of them have
become accustomed to what is known
as infightlng' and they are a great
deal better when boxing close to their
opponents than in sparring at long
range. They try to tire out their OPP
ponents by the pulling and hauling
which is quite scientific in its way and
by no means as rough as it appears
It is often the style of some boxers
to win this way. Sometimes acct
dents will happen in infighting, as
they will in any sport.

LIST OF INJURED DECREASED
Nine Dead and III Players Hurt 10
the Toll football Has Collected
During the 1911 Season.

Nine dead and III injured players
is the toll football has collected from
the gridirons of the country during
the 1911 season.
The disciples Of reform in the game
consider the comparatively few deaths
and the large decrease in injuries
from 1910 a yindication Of Americas
most strenuous sport.
With but one exception, 1901, when
seven players were killed, have there
been a fewer number of fatalities in
eleven years. This seasons sacrifice
of life stands out in hopeful contrast
to that of 1910, when twenty-five IA
talities were recorded and the list of
Injured contained 499 names.
The small number Of fatalities this
season may be considered by some
yet disputed by others, as partial
tribute to the wisdom Of the rulema-
l,ers who in 1909 revised the gridiron
code in hopes of eliminating the
chances for serious injury. so numer-
