All back stepping. covering up and
purely defensive work are discour-
aged and each contestant 10 made sub

latter recommendation Is a direct de-
parture from the accepted standard of
ring strategy which puts q premium
on purely defensive tactics.
According to the new army rules,
a total of six blows constitutes the
ground plan of. the boxing program.
The maintenance of such a series Of

Downs are limited to the standard OF
ten seconds. To gain fast action the
time limit per round has been made
two minutes instead Of three minutes
for novice bouts. Four rounds will be
boxed except in the case Of divisional
cha pionship contests, which may
run six rounds.

WAR PENNANT
BEATS CIRRUS
Jockey Takes Advantage of Open
ing and Wins by Close
Margin.

New York, Oct. % War Pcnnant
beat Cirrus short head in the Ardslcy
Handicap at the Empire City track
yesterday and no race this year, not
even the Futurity, was more spectacular
or reused the crowd to such a show OF
SPONTANEOUS enthusiasm. Words can do
scant Justice to the struggle
Ii SCI ms unfair to rob War Pennant OF
one ounce of the credit which victory
brought, and yet big majority OF those
who looked ON were one ~ the opinion
that Cirrus was the better horse at the
weights. However War Pcnnant took up
the staggering impost of 13O pounds,
stood his share of the pacenaking and
fought out the finish in the gamest fash
ion.
Four horses went to the post, and all
four raced up the back stretch iull
half mile absolutely head and head. 1t
was so unusual that 1t set the crowds
cheering long before the usual time to
give voice,
War Pcnnant was on the rail with
Young Adam, Cirrus and OphclIa next
in order This is important, rs the posi-
tion at the post had practically every
thing 10 do with the winning OF the race.
rs they rounded the far turn after racing
like four-horSc team from the start, hit
tie Erickson. on Dung Adam, carried Cir
rus and Ophelia slightly wide, and john
nv Lotus, quick to see his advantage,
cut the corner and stole away good
length. The race was won then and there.
Cirrus finally drew clear from the other
two and went on after the flying leader
and to such good purpose that he crcpt
up foot by foot, but Johnny Lotus sat
down for one of those finishes for which
he is Justly famous and got War Pen

HEAvyWE|GHTS TO
BOX FOR CHARITY
Jack Dempsey and Jess Willard in
Show for War Work
Campaign.

If Philadelphia boxing fans don't sec a
bout between Jess Willard, the heavy
weight champion, and Jack Dempsey, the
aspirant for the title, it will not be the
fault of the latter. as he is willing to meet
the champion in bout in Philadelphia for
any number of rounds, and if the affair Is
for the benefit of the soldiers or for the war
fund campaign, the Red Cross or for any
charitable fund connected with the war,
then Dempsey will box for nothing and
donate whatever might be coming to him
to the charity that will conduct the con-
test. Such was the substance of the state
ment made last night by Jack kenrns,
Dernpscy's manager, shortly after he
arrived in Philadelphia from a trip to
Milwaukee.

gcsting Philadelphia as the place for Viii
