Victor Over Pueblo Jim Flynn
in New York.

New York, Dec, Jack Dillon of

Flynn in every one of the 10 rounds Of
the wlndup at the Broadway Sporting
club last night Flynn was outpointed
and outfought but never outgamed,
and sent every one home satisfied
that he had had his moneys worth.
The ancient fireman of Pueblo may
be perhaps but a shell of his former
self but he is still able to take just
about twice as much punishment as
any other three white heavyweights
extant.
The story of any one found would
describe the fight, although Flynn
seemed to improve by comparison
Dillon tired some. but Jim never. Flynn
was shaken hard by Dillon's we'll

He WINGED at times before billions ter

Outboxed throughout, Flynn never
faltered, but kept carrying the fight tc
the Indianapolis light heavyweight
even when he was groggy on his I'M
derpinning. Flynn was faulty on dis.
tance and slow in his delivery. Dillon
had no difficulty either in finding the
mark at long range or blocking Flynn's
leads. But half the time the men

PLAYERS AGREE TO
SPEED UP BASEBALL

Plans are already being formulated
by the officers of the Baseball Play
ers' fraternity 10 make the big league
games faster next season.
President FuItz Of the fraternity is
sued a very sensible appeal to the
members along that line in the middle
of the present campaign. He pointed
out that baseball was experiencing a
lean year. and would probably have
another in 1916, because Of the Euro
pean war and unsettled business con
diti0ns.
He urged that the players move to
and from their positions between in
nings on the run. cause no needless
delays in batting, and otherwise pep
perize the pastime, so to speak, in or
der 10 make it as attractive and,
therefore. as profitable, as possible
For a while Fultz's words bore fruit
but recently games Of few runs have
been extending from two hours TO two
hours and half. because Of the dils-
tory and lackadaisical tactics Of the
performers.
The fraternity has taken up the sub
iect again, and may recommend dras-
tic legislation by the powers Of base
ball in order to spur the lazy athletes
to a more seemly activity.

Critics in the west, in picking the

little on the personnel of the line, but
in the backield there is a greater var

Chicago and Buck of Wisconsin for
tackles There is no difference as to
Dunnigan being placed on the first
team for one guard, but the other
guard position is not unanimously
settled. Fitzgerald OF Notre Dame is
placed by some, but others of the ex-
perts award the position to Blocker OF
Purdue All agree that Watson of Il
inois should be given the center posi-
ton and Russell Of Chicago is unan-
imous choice for quarterback.
Bierman is given a position in the
back field, but the critics disagree as
TO where he should be placed, some
putting him at a half and others at

SAYS FOOTBALL rs
GROWING UNCERTAIN

81. Paul, MINI. Dec THAT Field
ing Il. Yost is right in his contention
that the smaller colleges will soon be
on an equal footing with the larger
ones in football is the opinion OF DR.
~. l.. Williams of the University of
Minnesota. The leader Of the Gophefs
frankly expressed his ideas along this
line.
Football is more uncertain than
ever said Dr.. Williams. ANY one
talking about odds on one team or an
other before a game is foolish. II is
no longer question of size. II is np
to IL men on the field. and a small col
lege is just as likely to put strong
team in the field as bigger one.
The forward passing has been
largely responsible for the uncertain
ty. A pass IS made and by skill. de-
sign or luck. a touchdown is in siphf
Sometimes the strongest team in the
country is helpless before a well oiled
attack of that kind Then lucky kick
or disastrous tumble and the chances
are evened up"
me question of kick after a
touchdown was brought up. DR.. VII
hams had previously express himself
IN favor Of the kick. 1t was suggested
that kick from scrimmage would be
more equitable. The coach said that
II was mighty good suggestion.
