Whizzers Hunnliug in
His Ear, Richard Wants
To Fight to a Finish

NEW YORK, Nov. 17.-"Fighting
in the dark isn't exactly may game.
I'd rather choose weapons and clear
away the room but you can't do
that in every scrap" declared Tex
Richard today.
The picturesque Richard. with a
story back OF him that reads like
a Rex Beach story, had tougher
fights when he was prospecting in
Alaska or battling COW raiders in
Argentina. but he never had the
whizzers running by his ears from
so many directions as he has right
now in the shadow of Broadway.
Tex had one fight in court
against an alleged business partner
who wants to run him out Of Madi-
son Square Garden.
The wrestling trust tried to get
me the other night but I found out
the way they work and I'll be ready
for them the next time" Richard
said Thursday. Am 1 going to quit
promoting wrestling? Well, I never
quit under fire in my life"

Brainy Coach TO
Make History if
Work Continues
Plays Used by Bulldog in
Critical Moment Show Re-
suit of Good Pilot.
BY BILLY EVANS.

Very often one play is the decid-
ing factor in a football game. In
the Yale-Princeton game there we're
a number Of unusual happenings
which had a bearing on the result.
One play, however, that probably
had been planned in advance bv Tad
Jones, was really the determining
factor OF that play. more later on.
Almost at the opening Of the game
a very bad pass by Center Wittmer
of Princeton, which bounded along
the ground. placed Princeton on the
defensive. A forward pass was the
play, but the pass was so bad, Prince
ton was fortunate TO retain the ball
after a loss of 10 yards That play
made a punt necessary, and put
Yale in a position TO score its first
touchdown.
Three times during the game Gil
roy, who won the Harvard game for
Princeton by a 65-yard run after
/ catching a forward pass, had his
chance to be a hero. on one occa-
sion he dropped a beautiful pass
/ from Snively after getting the ball
squarely in his hands He had a
clear field. Once he intercepted
forward pass, and again had a clear
field, but was unable TO hold the ball
/ The third time he caught a forward
pass that Snively had hurled As
/ yards through the air. With only
/ Sturm between him and the Yale
| goal, he started on his way. Sturm
brought him down with a vicious
/ tackle. 1t caused Gilroy TO tumble
/ the ball and a Yale player recovered
/ it,
The play that really changed the
/ entire complexion of the game came
in the third period. Yale had been
/ held on about the Princeton 45-yard
I line. 1t was the fourth down and a
punt was necessary. The ball was
within about 10 feet of the side
lines. one of the countrys leading
! experts on football was sitting next
20 me in the press box. Several
Princeton men dropped back an
/ ticipating the punt. They were di-
/ rectly behind the line of scrimmage
and about 80 yards in the rear. As
/ the two teams made ready for the
punt, the expert, turning to me, re-
/ marked.
such a play as this came up two
or three times in the Harvard
/ Princeton game. Each time rne
/ punter very obligingly kicked the
/ ball directly at the men who had
dropped back. Tad Jones. the Yale
/ coach. was sitting next 10 me. I sug-
/ gested that it would be a good play
\ 20 kick the ball diagOnally across the
field. so that Il would get the dis
lance and go out of bounds, thereby
/ killing any chance to run the bal.
I back Jones said he had always
liked such a gamble. and that If such
a chance came up in the Princeton
game his kicker would be instructed
20 take advantage of It,"
The conversation was scarcely over

IOlUd Star NOuU Leads
WeSternerS In Scoring

Captain Aubrey Devine of the
University of Iowa is the leading
scorer among the western confer
ence players. Devine had a big day
against Purdue. scoring four touch
downs and kicking as many goals
In four conference games the Iowa
star has made nine touchdowns and
kicked II goals from touchdOwns,
bringing his total points for the con-
ference games to &c. Elliott of
Wisconsin is second with AZ points.
Devine has played a remark a BILE
game for Iowa this year at quarter
and seems to be the general choice
for that position with most OF the
experts who are now figuring on
their an-western team.

BY VINCENT ENGELs.

Marquette is out 10 show the
world that Notre Dame does not pos
sess the greatest forward passing at
tack of the country. The praise
which the entire East has heaped
upon the aerial attack of the Irish
has had little effect upon Marquette.
Yesterday Coach Ryan said: I be-
lieve that the right sort Of defense
Will break up the Notre Dame pass
es. We have shat sort OF defense"
II is worth while noting that Ryan
made no mention of his own forward
passing attack. The fact is that he
has been keeping this mode Of Of
fensive under cover all season in an
attempt TO surprise Notre Dame on
Nov 10
With a pair of speedy ends. and
two accurate paSsers in his back
field, Cronin and Shelley. Ryan has
been working on a number Of wierd
pass formations all season. Not
once has ne opened them up, but
last Saturday he gave the crowd just
a taste Of what he was saving up
for the Rockers, when his team car
ried the ball so yards in four min
utes by means of the forward pass
for touchdown against North Da-
kota. Immediately after scoring
the open work was abandoned, and
the Hilltoppers resorted to straight
football.
Complete Sixteen Passes.
Proof that Marquette actually pos
sesses a great overhead offensive
came yesterday from Milwaukee. for
it was stated that the Hilltoppers
completed 16 successive passes in
five minutes during practice yester-
day. The 16 passes netted an ad-
vance Of $50 yards.
At no time this year have the Irish
been called upon to face a team that
possessed an efficient passing attack.
Iowa attempted the overhead route
only in a half-hearted way, and
neither Nebraska nor the Army had
much faith in their own abilities
with the pass. What Notre Dame
may or may not be able 10 do against
a forward passing attack nearly as
powerful as her own remains 70 be
seen. They have satisfactorily DEM
onstrated their uncanny ability with
the pass; but they have never been
required to face their own medicine
If Marquette has anything good in
the way of an overhead attack, the
HilltOppers may do the unexpected
and turn the tables on Notre Dame
next Saturday.
At present II surely seems that
MarqUette's one chance lies in clever
/ forward passing. The Rockers have
met and turned back the greatest

PerusdL of Records
Shows That Babe Hit
En- Hard at Cleveland

The records show that a team to
win a pennant must be able to de-
feat its strongest contender.
That theory certainly held good
in both major league races last sea-
son. The Yankees won in the Amer
lean league because they consist
emily beat Cleveland. The Giants
won in the national league because
Pittsburg proved easy.
In the victory of the Yankees over
the Indians, no player contributed
more to the success of the New
York club than Ruth. Working
along the lines of the above theory,
Ruth did his very best hitting
against the Cleveland club
A perusal of the records shows
that Ruth hit for an average of .4S3
against Coveleskie, Uhle. Bagby.
Caldwell. Mails, Sothoron. Clarke.
Odelwald and Morton, comprising
the Cleveland staff. Strangely
enough he did his best batting
against the star Of the staff. Stanley
COveleskie. Batting aims {
"Coveys' deceptive spitbaT, Ruth
had an average of .615 in seven
games.
Red" Faber of the Chicago White
Sox was the most effective pitcher
against the Babe. The King OF
Swat batted only 1877 against Faber.
1t is rather hard to find an explana-
ton for the success of Faber and
the failure Of Coveleskie, since both
use the same style of delivery.
OF the southpaws, Billy Bayne OF
st. Louis and Red Oldham OF De-
troit made the most trouble for
Babe. Against these two pitchers
Ruth was able to collect an average
of only .1S2-B. T..

Logical Entrant
For a considerable length OF time
South Bend has been considered as
the logical plum TO greatly bolster
some organized baseball league. Be
cause a baseball team operated here
four years ago failed 70 materiauze
when the youths Of the country had
gone abFOad and every one had his
mind on the great game across the
seas and had little time for amuse-
ments. most sport financiers have
been afraid 10 take a chance OF ex-
hibiting "a certain drawing card and
money producer here.
In 1910 South Bend was repre-
Eented In the central league which
included Fort Wayne, Terre Haute,
Evansville. Grand Rapids Mich.
Dayton, ohio. GAINESVILLE, Ohio, and
Wheeling. W. Va. and captured the
peunantf Hearty support from a
healthy number of fans made the
club a financial success. Crowds Of
5000 at a ball game were not an
unheardi Of figure; then the pOpula-
ton OF this city was little over 5O,-
600.
In 1910, one realized the class Of

then sold 10 the Chicago Cubs and
later was appointed manager of the
Kansas City club in the Association.
Bill Essex, present manager OF the
Vernon club in the Pacific coast
league was a ball player on the

years.

fact that the men who know. in
