NEW RULES IN BASKET GAME IA RE ALL o. K.
BY JOE BEAN
Coach Atlanta Athletic Club )

tCoach Atlanta Athletic Clup.) You know, think the rules committee of basketball has been kind to the vel
 erans and made rule that players who
 have been in the game can be taken out and give2 rest and allowed to go back
 in once This was certainly nice of the
 committee and we appreciate it very
 much.
 speaking of new rules, another change
 made is that any ball declared held un-
 der the basket in the six-foot line shall
 be taken out to the 15-foot line from
 which fouls are thrown, and tossed up.
 This can readily be seen as a good rule.
 as heretofore a held ball between tall
 man and a short one was an advantage
 to the taller player.
 The rule also doing away with the end
 zone isi a good one, as it lengthens the floor and stops a lot of held balls that result. The national tournament held here last year at the Auditorium is re- sponsible for these changes, as situations were continually arising that made the end zone and held ball disadvantage to some particular team. In speaking of the national tournament for this season those in Atlanta who wish to see il again will have to journey to Kansas City and be the guests of the Kansas City A. C., which has been awarded the event.
 This is the goal at which the A. A. C. team is shooting. They have been prom ised the trip if they show by their work that they are worthy, and therefore can
 you wonder why our veterans say youth will be served-roughly. From what we saw of the men who represented the

Britton. 10 Risk
 Title In Match
 With Kid Denny
BY WILL HAMILTON

 New Orleans, December 6.--(Special ,- Jack Britton, king of the welters, will defend his worlds championship against Young Denny here December 2 The distance will be 15 rounds and a decision win be rendered by Louisiana referee. The weight will be 147 pounds at o'clock. The championship linnt recognized in New York is 147 at o'clock, practically the same limit that is stipulated for welterweight championship under the new Louisiana law, which is 14S ringside.
 This was the announcement made Sat urday by Domnick Tortorich. match maker of the Louisiana auditorium.
 It will be the first championship nght staged here in several years, and the first fight in the big Carrollton street arena in several months The new Louis- jana boxing commission will then be in operation.
 JACK HERE LAST WEEK This match grew out of Brittons visit here last week when he stopped over on his way from San Antonio to Atlanta. Apparently he had no idea of boxing here soon when he paid a hurry call between trains at The Item office. Why don't you come down here and take on the rejuvenated Denny?" the champion was asked on this visit. lie had not seen any of the matchmakers. Guess he's too heavy, isn't her re piled Jack.
 .Hes got the championship bee And claims he can make 150 with ease" Well, I might take him on at 16o but not in a championship fight You know that's not the welter limit can still do 142 and make 145 like a top" AGREES TO RISK TITLE sHow about him at 14s ringside. the now Louisiana limit, if he can do it?' .Sallright with me. if it's worth while. I'm ready to talk business if the match makers think well of it" Soon after this conversation he talked with Dominick Tortorich and named the terms
 Tortorich wasn't then very hopeful Of getting the match on account of the weights. and he did not think Britton
 would consent to anything but mo- decision bout
 l Britton had to hurry on to Atlanta Tor
 match before Denny and his brAher- manager, Paul LAcro.x. could be con- | suited
 The next day Lacroix was around early and full of pep.
 Box Britton for the title at 14S? Sure
 thing" he said "Or Denny will make II! at o'clock FLet it be- to decision ana | for the championship" | Tortorich hurried into communication | with Britton's manager, Dan Morgan and soon had telegraphic confirmation oi that end of the match.

Southern Prep
 Title May Be Decided Here

Now that both Albertville and Baylor School of Chatta- nooga are anxious and willing to meet each other, Birming. ham seems in line for one of the best post season games staged here since that famous Central High-Fayette County game of 1917.
 It began when Baylor issued a challenge to the AEgies for a post season game to decide the 1920 prep championship of the south. BayIor has licked everything in her section of Dixie. while Albert ville is about the best that Ala bama cnn produce. game be- tween the two eIevens would come as ne1r deciding the title as it is possible for such to he done.
 Several Birmingham sportsmen have gotten in behind the matter and are trying to bring the game to Birmingham. ChattnnoOga is also after the battle nnd. If the Mngic City lands this championship game 1t will, indeed, be n feather in her cup.
 Both schools seem willing to stnge the game and the wny things look now, Birmingham will witt ness n real championship football game this year, probably around the middle of the month.
 Several local parties are working hard for the game. and 1t is be- Heved that the affair, if staged here, would prove n complete suc- cess, regardless of the fact thnt the season has been closed almost two weeks.

 Mr. Whiting complained to Charles J. Kelly, chairman of the board of gov ernors of the Building Trades Elm ployers' Association for arbitration, only to discover that the arbitration board consisted of MT. Kelly and MT. Brindell
 Other witnesses gave similar testi- mony and 1t was brought out that there were about 1,5O0 to 1900 men in the regular union, known as Zaranko's, which meant the collection of from 5000 to $o0,000 from these union men if they wanted to work under Brin- de1Ps rules.
 Charles H.. Wallis, a housewrecker, testified that he did business of $350- GOO to $400,000 a year but as result of being blacklisted by Brindell he was put out of business.

Major William F. Alcorn, Demo- cratic nominee for Congress from the Third district, is candidate who ap- peals strongly to the labor voter He worked his way through college as a carpenter, always on union jobs, and he is the son of union carpenter. His understanding of the workingman's problems and his sympathy for the wage earner makes him. an ideal man to have representing this district Ill Congress.
 Major Alcorn's war record is too well known to require extended com ment. It Is one which endears him to every patriotic citizen. First he re- linquished fine law practice to serve year in Mexico and in the late war he served with distinction for two years in France.
 Since resuming his law practice he has manifested an inclination to assist labor to the fullest possible extent and was indefatigable in his efforts on be- half of the striking meat cutters as their counsel.
 He has devoted a great deal of his time since admission to- the bar on teaching patriotism and loyalty to the government and obedience to the law.
 Tie IS opposed 10 a military 10TH or government and believes that nations can settle differences between them by arbitration without resorting to kill ing for the purpose of settling disputes.
 He IS member of the American Legion and believes that all the military training necessary for citizens of the United States can be obtained by the maintenance of National Guard
 He has always been an advocate of equal suffrage and deplores now the cupidity and hypocrisy of such men as the Governor of this State, Senators Brandegee, Lodge, Johnson, Borah and others who have been and are now op- posed to woman suffrage.
 As law is the foundation of our civil government he believes absolutely in the enforcement of the law on the ground that if law is poor one the quickest way to repeal it is by its en- forcement and not by opposition to It:
 He is firm believer in the policies of the democratic party and strongly favors the United States entering the League of Nations.

 After more than twenty years in pulp lie life, ten of which have been spent in Congress, Colonel Tilson now likes to look back on the days when he came to New Haven to enter Yale a penniless boy and the struggles he had in mak- ing his way through the university. Like so many other men who have at tained prominence, Tilson is a self made man and has known what 1t is to work with his hands in order to obtain a livelihood.
