Only One Coach on the Sidelines

"HE football rules for the season OF

to the field itself, Is extremely radical

PRODUCTION of the game into this coun-
try there is an alteration in the dimen-
sions of the playing surface, or gridiron
as 1t has been called
Since the introduction in 1876 the
field has been $50 feet in length, 100
feet in width, but for the season of
1872 the entire field is to be $50 feet
IN length, but the playing surface. that

the field Of play. will be only 800 feet
N length At each end is a 30-foot
zone behind the goal posts and behind
the goal line where the forward pass
is legal
The other most important change is
allowing four downs in which to gain
the necessary 10 yards instead of
three as formerly. The rest of the
alterations are Of less Importance The
number Of privileged coaches who may
walk up and down the side lines, re-

A MOTHER nasty mess was pulled
"a across at Albuquerque Monday
L - night when Kid Mitchell. who
claims Ell Paso as his home, and Jack
Carson, of Colorado, fought a five
round farce before the New Mexico
gone a long mileage had it not been
called in the fifth, when referee Rollo
gave Carson the decision over Mitchell
for what the Albuquerque papers claim
was rank fouling on the local products
part. But the decision did not end the
fight by a pair of punches.
When the Colorado kids glove was
raised by the referee in token of vic
tory, Mitchell is said to have made a
wild dash at the referee and swung
couple of vicious clouts in his imme-
date vicinity. ROllo was a fighter be-
fore he became a judge advocate of
fight matters and he squared away for
a self defence scene in one act The
crowd rushed in and separated Mitchell
from the jumps. of the fight game and
pushed him to the dressing room He
was Kissed and hooted by the crowd
and was the recipient of a demOnstra-
ton which is not usually accorded to
top notch fighters Carson, just to
show that he was good for some more
of the same, came back and punched
the Athletic club piano for a copule
or three rounds to the delight of the
crowd Mitchell did not appear again
that evening.

- EORGES CARPENTER, the SEN
sationaI French fighter, has de-
cided to quit the middleweight
ranks and become a light heavyweight
This announcement comes from Car
pentier himself. In a letter. the clever
French boy. who is just 19 years Of
age. states that he has now passed out
OF the 15S pound class, weighing at
present about IT'S pounds. OF course.
he could train down to about 162
pounds, If necessary. but he prefers
to retain his strength and become a
real heavyweight and perhaps a real
white hope. Carpenter stands feet
I inch and is still growing, so there is
reason to hope that he will develop
into a crack heavyweight in the
course of a year or two. Frank Klaus
had been matched for return engage
ment with Carpenter, but when the
latter found that he. could no longer
make the weight he called it off. Hugh
Mcintosh has been after the French
boy to make a trip to Australia, but ne
has so many matches in sight in France
will probably defer his trip to the
antipodes for some time

Johnny Greedy. the Pittsburg. feath-
erWeight, is going after Johnny Kill
bane for a title match. His manager,
has offered to give the Cleveland cham
piOn a side bet of $1,000 real money
for 20 round battle. Greedy was
bantamweight last year, having met
all the best boys in the east, including
Patsy Brannigan, Tommy Dixon,
George KirkwOOd, Monte Attell and
others Greedy is now negotiating
matches with Jimmy Walsh, of Boston,
and Johnny Dundee, of New York, and
if he can make a showing with those
boys he has right to get after Kill
bane. for both Dundee and Walsh are
tough picking for even the champion.
Jack Britton's knockout of Eddie
Murphy, Of Boston. the other night
came as a surprise to the many friends
of the eastern fighter. Britton has
been credited with much cleVerness,
but little hitting ability, and his knock
out of Murphy will probably change the
opinion of some of the critics. Murphy
was being boosted as the boy to beat
Packey Mcfarland. but this reverse
will upset all the plans of his man
ager. It will be a big boost for Brit
