tentions regarding Sisler. The college

can land another outfielder and q

FOOTBALL SEASON NOW HERE
Appearance Of Annual Guide Sounds
Doom Of summer-Roueh Play 10
Eliminated From Game.

Summers doom is sounded, as Il al.
ways has been for more years than
Walter Camp cares to remember. by
the appearance OF the annual football
guide from the pen of Yale's Justly
famous football alumnus. The book
is full Of new Information. not the
least OF which Is the codifcation Of
the rules for 1915 and the schedules
OF practically every school and college
eleven in the country.
AS has been the case since 1905.
when the first great reform wave
struck football, the essence OF most Of
the changes in the rules this season
has to do with the elimination Of
rough play. Furthermore, the com.
mittee has taken a half step In the
direction OF numbering all players on
the field by recommending that mum.
bers be worn. Tho success which
numbering players in college basket.
ball games and in the few games in
which numbers were used by football
teams last fall has achieved. brought
the rules committee around to the new
way Of thinking.
The presence Of field Judge ON
the gridiron has been made obliga.
tory. This means that henceforth
there will be three officials on the
field OF play and the head linesman on
the sidelines. II is from the linesman
that most OF the duties of the field
Judge have been taken. the object
being to leave the former free to oh.
serve the particular province of the
game which he is detailed to watch,
particularly offside play.
Already some OF the college squads
have begun work, and more than one
small boy has ushered in the season
on the vacant lots with bangs and
bruises.

Success Of New York Giants New
Hurler Due TO Discovery Of Sane
and Sensible style Of Foot.
Gear While WORKING

There was some question as to the
status Of RUDE Benton, former Gin.
cinnau pitcher, until It was finally
decided that he was entitled to wear
the uniform Of New York Giant.
The pitching Of Mr.. Benton contin.
ues to be wonderful beyond all belief,
gorgeous without chance Of rivalry.
Game after game. without enough hits
OF him to shake an ounce Of dust out
Of a carpet! According to one Of
Mr.. Benton's friend D, the pitchers
success is due to his discovering a
sane and sensible style of foot.gear.
Down in Moth Calling they say that
Rube has prehensile feet. and when he
was the terror Of that region he
worked in soft moccasins, enabling
him to grip the slab with his hoofs,
and thus get extra leverage on every
ball.
Ordinary shoes hampered him. he
slid of the hill whenever he tried to
shut his toes. and so he wasn't show.
ing his real versatility. This year.
Mr.. Benton's shoes are only leather
on top-below, they are excavated, so
that his little tootsies can peek out.
