Running Game
Will DeDelop

PROVIDENCE, r. l., Feb. 12.-The
whole football situation In 1912 will
hinge on the development of the for
ward pass, in the belief of Donald
Pryor. the South Orange, N, j., boy.
who is Brown University coach. IIe
says: ut will take several weeks Of
experimentation and study to deter
mine definitely the necessities and
possibilities of the game in its new
clothes. 1t seems at first glance that
the changes should produce what they
were intended to produce-a running
game. 1t is true that the big teams
will be able to beat the small ones by
comfortable margins, but when the
giants clash, unless the forward pass
is well and systematically developed.
the running game will fall and 1912
will And the big teams relying on their
kickers just as they did in 1911"

O'Rourke was not to be daunted by
any such slight matter as nautical in
experience.

corridor. Long since, however, the
excited passengers had been reassur-

The lascar stepped noiselessly out,
shut the door without a sound, and
sped swiftly forward: a long, brown
man with an impressive cast of coun-
tenance in which his eyes shone with
curious light
AS he swung into the space at the
foot of the saloon companionway, he
collided violently with an understood
and excessively red-headed Irishman,
nearly upsetting the latter, to say
nothing of glass of brandy-and-soda
which he was conveying to certain
stateroom.

going?" demanded Danny with some
heat.
The East Indian backed away, bow
ed profoundly, mumbling something in
articulate, and sprang up the steps.
Danny looked after him, for moment
hesitant, then put down the tray and
pursued. He caught the flicker of the
lascar's cummerbund as the latter es-
capped to the deck, and himself arrived
at the forward end of the promenade
just in time to see white shape dis
appear into the steerage companion
way.

must be some serious trouble afoot in

the glimmer of the forecastle lantern
a confused blur of naked, shining,
brown bodies and limbs, apparently
inextricably locked A scream rang
shrill and there followed the sound of
heavy fall.
Overhead, on the bridge, Quick was
roaring himself hoarse, without effect.
The sounds of shutting, of blows,
harsh breathing, stifled cries, contin-
ued. A knot of the contestants swept,
whirling. aft, toward the superstruct-
ure. Something shot singing through
the air; the wind of it famed
O'Rourke's cheek.
With an unconscious. surprised oath,
O'Rourke stepped aside, his hand go

struck stanchion, glanced and fell
Gathering into the scuppers. Revolver
in hand, he went forward to the rail
overlooking the struggling rabble on
the deck below. But they seemed in
tent only on their private differences,
and Quick's roars were bringing them
to their senses. Gradually the tumult
subsidized, the contestants separating
and Sinking forward to their quarters.
1T may have been chance"
O'Rourke conceded bit doubtfully.
He swung about and moved aft slow
ly, examining the deck intently. In a
moment or two he stopped and picked
up a long, thin-bladed knife, double
edged and keen as razor. The point
was broken, having doubtless been
snapped off at the moment of contact
with the deck-house. O'Rourke turned
it over soberly.
Faith, l don't like to think 1t was
intentional-but me head would have
been split had it come two inches to

He returned to the bridge, calling
Quick aside. You're armed?"
Certainly-always armed when I'm
dealing with these devils. Why?"
O'Rourke showed him the knife.

He shook hands, sat down on the edge

who fears he intrudes, and glanced
searchingly at Quick. IF you're go

He accepted his glass with dis
passionate air and drank hastily after
a short nod to the guest, as one who

concluded that the drink had not been
