LATE RULES PUZZLE

Soccer officials are somewhat puzzled
over the recent alteration Of the free
kick rule. Hitherto the only possible in
depreciation of the laws dealing with
goal kicks. corner kicks and free kicks
was that thes playere OF the opposite
side TO that taking the goals should
not be allowed within six yards of the
hall until IL Is kicked off An extract
Of Of law 10. however now reads: when
a free kick has been awarded the kick
er's opponents Bhall not approach within
ten yards OF the ball until the kick is
taken, unless they are standing on their
own goal line"
II is especially stated In law that
'In case OF either gonl kick or corner
kick an opponent shall not be allowed

clear. but on returning to law 10 II

Both Comparatively Young.

Brought About Peculiarly.

A humorous angle to the approa ching
match is the way IL was brought about.
Nelson set aside Labor day as the date
OF his perpetual retirement and laid
down his gloves for ever and aye. amidst
impressive ceremonies. What followed
recalled the story Of two Irishmen hurt
in a train wreck On learning they both
were mortally injured, a mutual friend
persuaded them 10 grip hands across the
hospital stretchers and forget a hateful
feud that had endured almost life
time.

the retirement did not go.
Unless Nelson and Wolgast have
reached the age OF philosophy and have
made up their minds that there Is moth
ing much TO boxing apart from the Jingle
OF the coin. the scrap at Milwaukee Is
likely to be stubborn one. Nelson never
forgave Wolgast for relegatiDg him to
the background and Wolgast bas not for

about him IN the months after the title
changed hands.

II the old rivalry Is aroused the minds
OF both men Will hark back TO that
other fight on Richmond field on Feb

Nelson showed flash OF his old form
