FOOTBALL TOO ROUGH
Pugi|ists Dodge GridIron Game
Because Too Strenuous.
Average Fighter Would Sooner Face
Pack Of Fallen Angels Than Take
Any Part in the Popular COL
leqe Pastime.

IF you want to get fighters goat
Just ask him to help out some team in
a football game" said Bug Slattery to
a party of friends the other day,
writes Walter G. Kelly in the Cleve.
land Leader.
Flows that, Bug; don't the mitt
artists like the gentle gridiron pas
time?" asked Harry L. Davis, who is
an enthusiast on all branches of clean
sport.
''The average pugilist would sooner
face pack of fallen angels than take
part in a football contest" answered
Slattery. "The professional fighter
has horror of the strenuous college
sport. He does not like the roughing,
and the terrific bumps that the gladi-
ators Of the gridiron are so accus.
toned to. A fighter likes to have a
single opponent, and he wants him in
such a position that he can keep his
eyes upon him all the time. He dis
likes to have a king upset him from
behind, and then have dozen or more
other chaps stamp all over him and
wipe up the mud with his physiog-
nomy.
"They brought big fighter to Buf.
falo few years ago to play against
the Oakdales. The manager of the Wis
iting team thought his fighter could
take care of anything they would
place opposite him in the game, and
he went in there with the express de-
termination to knock out his man. But
he counted without his host. The game
had not gone the first half before the
pugilist was being carried off to the
side lines by his friends. He was a
sorry looking specimen, and so sore
about the body that he did not leave
his room for few days. That guy
never tried the college sport again.
Il remember some years ago when
the Detroit A. G. brought team here
to play against the G. A. Co.. they
brought fighter named MCGEE with
them. 1t was to be his job to put
Sport Donnelly, the C. A. C. captain,
out of commission. Donnelly, who was
a great football genius, and a fighter
as we'll, was put wise to Mr. McGee's
Intentions, and he watched the D. A.
G. slugger closely. Along about the lat
ter part Of the first period there was
scrimmage near the grand stand,
and when the smoke cleared away
MCGEE remained PROSTATE on the sod
while Sport was in his position inno-
Gently chewing his finger nails.
II guess the fighters were never
known to make a success at football"
said Doctor XIV. They do not under
stand the game in the first place, new
er having been trained to that sort of
thing. Football is college game, and
it requires a different sort of tutoring
altogether to develop players than
what is given the pugilistic gentry.
Then, too, it requires different sort

ments. Football is much more strenu-
Gus, and far more dangerous than
fighting in the ring. The gricfiron hero
Is more daring and reckless than his
pugilist brother, and the football man
is obliged to train much harder, and
TO suffer more hardships. He needs,
more moral courage than the fighter"

CONGRESS ADJOURNED
Sixty-secOnd Session Brought to Close
on MOnday-HaTmOny Restored
But State Claims Omitted.

Washington, d. C.-Sobered by
the embarrassments of Saturdays
all-night session of filibusters and
disagreements, congress adjusted its
differences Monday, invited Presi-
dent Taft to the capitol once more
and at 4:30 wrote "Finis'' after the
proceedings of the second session of
the siXty-second congress.
The end was marked with return
of harmony. Senator La Toilette,
demanding a roll call on the Penrose
campaign fund resolution, found all
opposition smoothed away and the
resolution was adopted almost with
out discussion.
Senators Chamberlain, MARITIME,
Swanson and Culberson, after fight
ing bitterly for the state claims" in
the general deficiency bill, permitted
the senate to yield to the house de-
mands and struck out those claims.
For this concession, however, they
received promises of support next
winter from other senators, when the
claims again will be pressed.
With these old claims, amounting
to 100000, went the extra month S
pay for congressional employees,
which the senate demanded and the
house refused to give. In the last
half hour of the session, while Presi-
dent Taft waited in his special room
to sign the measures of the dying
congress, an attempt was made to
rush through a special resolution
giving the employees the extra
month";" but the house again blocked
it.
The president signed the general
deficiency bill at 4:10, making GER
tain the payment of $1,S00,000 de-
ficiency in army pay, $15U,000 for
the Gettysburg memorial celebration
next year, $360,000 for extension of
customs work, and scores of other
important payments hinging on pas
sage of the bill.
The session Just fiZzlZed out" in
the senate, to use the words of one
observer. A comparative handful of
members occupied their seats and a
call for a quorum in either the house
or senate would have forced a return
of the embarrassing situation of last
week.
A wild outburst of applause greet
ed Speaker Clark's announcement of
adjournment as his gavel fell in the
house. The floor Immediately be-
came an animated scene, members
bidding each other goodbye. Old
time political foes buried their diff
ferences and all feuds apparently
were forgotten in the general leave
taking. Further animation and color
were lent to the scene when the
women flocked down from the gal
leries to join husbands and fathers
on the floor. Tired but happy men,
bers and their families and friends
crowded the corridors, and Speaker
Clark's room was thronged with
| friends and admirers.
