NORTHWESTERN
COACH SEES 3
TOP MICHIGAN
Mention Grady Believes Wiscon-
sin and Chicago Stronger
Than Wolverines
PURDUE ALSO, III NEW
MATERIAL MAKES GOOD
Advance Dope Indicates That
Michigan Will Be Fourth
In West

The advance dope on the football
teams OF the conference universities
and Michigan indicates that two OF
the former Will be stronger than
Yost's eleven this year, and that an
other is very likely to be. according
~ Dennis Il. Grady, head coach Of
Northwestern university.
From the men who are going back
TO Wisconsin. Chicago and Purdue"
says Grady, and from the new ma
terial that these three universities
are getting for their football teams,
feel sure that Wisconsin and Chicago
will outclass Michigan and wouldn't
be surprised TO see Purdue somewhat
stronger.
Michigan hasn't the material conn
ing back to IL that II used to have
In the days OF Heston. II Jimmy
Craig sticks TO his decision to re-
main away from the team, that will
further weaken II, as Craig was one
OF the best men Yost had last year.
Unless there Is some great material
that hasn't been brought to notice
as yet In the Wolverines squad. !
don't look for them to be the cham
p!ons of the west.
Wisconsin has a wonderful team
OF big, bruising men, who can crush
almost any opposition. Chicago Will
have another 'Eckersalf type Of
team, depending upon cleverness and
speed. Purdue / expect to make q
good showing because OF new material
that hear Is going to go there"
Grady Is at present at the Univet-
sity of Michigan summer school tar
ing a law course. He was at North
western last year. going there from
Alma college. He Is graduate OF
Depauw university Northwestern
has seven of It's eight games with
conference teams so that Grady Is
well qualified to give out predictions
upon the probable strength OF the
western elevens..

WALTER TAYLOR CAN WIN in THE MUD; TAKES THREE
FIRSTS AND SECOND IN FIVE RACES AT WINDSOR

Walter Taylor, apprentice Jockey
and mud go well together. Riding on
the first soggy track Of the week at
Windsor yesterday, Taylor took three
firsts. including the feature of the
day. the Canadian handicap, and a sec
ond out OF five races entered Taylor s
only poor showing was in the fifth
race, in which he rode Holton to fifth
place.
Taylor rode for the T. p Hayes sta
bic in all except the handicap, IN
which his mount was Giddings
horse, Hearts of Oak. The Giddings
entry had things all it's own way, On
dramon, a stable mate of the winner,
taking second place. Hearts of Oak
took the lead from the start and /.
IL easily, despite it's top weight.
The terrific rainstorm that swept
the track shortly before noon threw
off the form followers, who had not
counted on the races being run in the
mud. The rain also cut down the
gfields somewhat, yet the winners
seemed as hard 70 chose as ever.
Only two OF the favorites took first
money.
The rainstorm also caused Walter
O. Farmer to postpone the sale OF
his Edenwold year!ings from yester-
day aftrnoon to this afternoon.

Browns Need Five New
Men to Keep the Yanks
Out of Seventh Posi-
ton, Says H. Nelly
BY HARRY NELLY,
Sporting Editor, ST. Louis Times.

To rise beyond seventh place, the
Browns need one more right-handed
pitcher, shortstop who can hit, a
second baseman who can steady In
the pinches, reasonably hard-hit-
ting catcher and an outfielder who
can pole $50. Pratt would fill the
outfield fine IL the second baseman
were secured.
The Yankees are much stronger
and the Browns scouts must produce
this year or the club will slide back
into eighth place In 1914.

M'lntosh Ad0ises Three Judges
For Ring Battles Rather Than
HaUinq One Man Giye Decision

OF one of the principals. And in that
position he cannot see the blows
landed by the other boxer or their
effect.
II understand that in America the
amateur bouts are decided by judges.
But these judges sit together and OF
course are under an even greater
handicap than referee. for they
have no chance TO move around. Of
ten a man who sits at the ringside
misses fully one-half the blows OF a
fight How can he be expected to
judge intelligently?"
The Mcintosh idea is to have three
judges on different sides of the ring.
The referees duty will end with the
last round. Then fifth man, a
teller In fact, though a Judge In name,
will collect the opinions of the three
judges and the majority vote OF these
three judges will rule.
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1913-08-22

Every once in so often some one
bobs up with the suggestion that
three judges render the verdicts in
boxing, instead of throwing the en-
tire responsibility upon one man, the
poor referee. And bsst as often that
suggestion is laughed down. though
II has much TO be commended. The
latest to make this suggestion is
Hugh Mcintosh. Australian boxing
promoter.
Mcintosh advances manq tangible
reasons for judges instead OF one
referee. He would place the judges
on different sides of the ring, for, as
he says:
"One man cannot see all OF a box
ing bout. no matter how fast, careful
and accurate he is. At some stage
or other he Is bound TO be In a posi-
ton where he is faced by the back
