the Notre Dame game is that the
backs hope for the shift instead of
the line. Most of the Western elevens
teach a line shift. which In ninety
nine instances out OF one hundred il
likely to be a wing shift.
Day after day Rockne works with
his players to get them to that stage
of perfection where they slip over to-
Gether and without overriding the
thing so that they are likely to be
penalized for being in motion when
the ball is put in play; 1t is as near
the perfection of rhythm as exists in
football.
In the game at West Point the dash
of the Notre Dame team always has
been admired by the spectators. even
though the latter were not aware OF
the fact that a patient drill master had
spent hour after hour in giving the
signal to his players and calling them
back repeatedly until they had mast

St. Louis Cards
Make Sensational
Rush in National

st. Louis Cardinals are making
a sensational rush for first place
in the closing weeks of the Ma
tional League schedule. BY win
ming two more games from the
Cubs yesterday the Cards rounded
out a record of twenty victories
out of their last twenty-five games,
and are now within hailing dis
tance of the clubs ahead of them,
Pittsburgh and New York.
AS they stand today. the Pirates
top the Cards by seven and half
games, while the Giants are only
five games ahead of the fast-mov-
ing Missourians. 1t is still pos
sible for St. Louis to win out. but
to do so they must continue their
wonderful work and the Pirates
and Giants slump off in their
work. !

to o, retiring thirteen on strikes, and
he beat Clover A. c.. to o, In six
frames. allowing two hits and tanning
fourteen.
A Remarkable Average.
Thus, only six hits in twenty six
innings were given by McIntire, an
average OF little-iess than one to an
inning, and he averaged about two
strike outs to a frame.
The mound work of McIntire, who
is a lanky youngster Of sixteen years,
has been one Of the biggest factors
in the distinct success Of the AZtecs
this season, they having been beaten
In few games. BY their brilliant per-
formances and sportsmanlike conduct,
the Aztecs have come to be one of the
most popular young teams In the city.
Another young pitching star in the
series is Louis Hollis. of the Lin
worths, who is fifteen years old.
Louis has pitched twelve games this
season, winning ten. Many times he
has entered a game with men on base
and none out and famed the opposing
side. Hollis struck out twenty-five
men in two games he pitched in the
series winning both. In the contest

Where Corbett Was Taught.
The average boxing fan Of this
generation probably has a vague idea
of John l.. just as he was described
in the statement to which Rourke
takes exception. They think CT
James J. Corbett as the DADDY or
the scientific school.
OF Corbett, Tom says:
He was taught boxing by Walter
Watson, the instructor of the Olym-
pic Club. of San Francisco. Watson
fought Mike Donovan twice
"Corbett was first brought TO no
tice by Billy Delaney, when he boxed
Peter jackson a no decision contest

1T was Delaney who hired Jim
Jeffries to work with Corbett in
training when jeff was merely big.

Delaney and Corbett that Jeffries
was first heard of. and through De-
laneys persistence that jeff was

laney was always the man behind

that distinction.
Foley Fought Fitzimmons.

Tom, was developed and taught

Foley was a master. developer OF

produced Young Griffo, Jim Han,
Dan Creedon, and many Of the best

time and gives his answer to Tad q"

There win never be another
Dixon"
Is Dempsey Clever!
Jack Dempsey, the present heavy
weight champion. will probably SO
down in pugilistic history snore as a
great hitter than as a clever boxer.
He is essentially a knocker-out.
Where long fights by other cham
pions failed to arouse comment,
Dempsey is severely criticised when
his bouts go over a few rounds.
1t is his penalty for having es-
tablisbed a reputation as quick
finisher He is not given the priv
ilege Of feeling out an opponent fer
more than a round or two, which
argues that in the opinion of the
fistic public the class of his oppo.
nents Is very poor. indeed.
Some have even criticised him for
not stopping Carpenter In a round.
