COAL SHOT AFTER
DRIBBLE WILL Count

NEW YORK, Sept. IA commit
tee appointed by the Amateur Athletic
Union to confer with the college ath-
letic authorities regarding basketball,
has announced that for the first time
in the history of that game the anna
teur and collegiate rules this year
will be alike. This result was attain
ed through a number of open meet
ings held during the winter and a
mail vote.
The principal point of disagreement
was the dribble rule. The new uni
form rule now adopted is in sub
stance as follows: Dribbling will be
permitted, and at the end Of the drib-
BILE a player will be allowed TO throw
for a goal. and if he makes the goal
il viii count
Heretofore the amateur rules did
not permit the scoring Of a goal af-
ter q dribhio. but the amateur authori-
ties have conccded this point to the
college mem and in the future anna
tour teams gill permit this style OF
play.

MANY GUNNERS blaze
Today AT The REEDIES

The reed and rail bird season in
Delaware opened today and the local
army Of determination invaded the
marshes and by daylight volley after
volley was fired into the homes OF
the toothsome little game birds.
That there is more interest dis
played this year than in previous
years is evidenced by the great pre-
parations being made tor the season
by the devotees of the popular sport.
Notwithstanding the fact that shells
are selling at double the cost asked
last year owing TO the demand on
the market for munitions. il is stated
on good authority that more shells
have been sold this year than last.
Shells are selling at S25 per thousand
or cents apiece.
Most of the good cunning marshes
are on the New Jersey side. of the
Delaware river. and in the State OF
Delaware, south from Delaware City
to Bowers Beach.
Among the gunners who will go
from this city are Jack McNiff, Jack
McNiff. I'd, Captain Cook and Chris
tian Lloyd.
w. II. Hartlove. who sells ammu-
milton and guns at Third and French
streets, will gun at Silver Run as is
his annual custom.
DR.. d. I. McColley will invade the
precincts of the toothsome dainty.
Jack Kaiser and Charles Allies Of
the Wilmington Leather COMPANY
and Harold Jefferson of the Harlem a
Hollingsworth Office will be among
the local shooters. They viii occupy
the Kaiser bungalow on Guthriea
Lane and from the roof expect to
tran birds before daylight by lure
consisting of a $50 candlcpOwer Ian
tern of gasoline power. They will not
take advantage OF the bewildered
birds by putting salt upon their
tails.

this cventuality he has added Larry
Cheney aud Riihe Marquard to his hurl-

Roger Brcsnahan needed a good infelder.
The Brooklyn club paid $1,000 and turn

Chency's release. Larry, though he has
not shown anything like his true form

major league clubs, including Brooklyn,
had waived on him. II was because the
Ruhr consented TO reduction IN the
salary he was getting from the Giants
that Robinson added him to the Su-
perba's roster. Nilhert Robinson has
heen given credit for the development
of Rube Marquard, and if the rotund
pilot of the superbas still possesses the
old influence over the giraffe southpaw
he should take on a new lease of life.
