Hard to Detect
Pushing an opponent is a misleading
sort of term. for some players push
very hard with elbows and knees much
to the discomfort of the unfortunate who
received the elbow or the knee. but
suppose push is the proper word, al.
though / have distinct recollection of
feeling more than once that my ribs had
been hit with a hammer when an op-
ponent got his elbow in on them. Tn
fortunately, it il little thing which
is hard to detect when done as some
players do it and nobody knows any.
thing about 1t except the fellow with
the pushed ribs.
The referee on top Of the game who
has been through the mill as II player
| knows the signs and does not hesitate to
penalize when it Is done. The rule for
the beginning is to keep his hands down
and elbows in so that they will come
clear Of an opponents body. Def
nitely, pushing means that under no cir
cumStanccs whatever must you push an
opponent with your hands or arms or
use the elbow or knee against him.
Charging an opponent violently or
dangerously IL using undue force in that
direction, particularly by taking both
feet off the ground In the effort. or
course, the opponent who has his wits
about him and is in the proximity Of a

change his position sufficiently to let the
charger take the air. 1t has slightly
deterrent effect on the charger If he has
sense.
Charging from behind il when Il
player charges an opponent in front of
him who is not Intentionally obstruct-
ing him. The safe rule is, when an Op-
ponent is not on or near the ball don t
charge him from behind, and If he Is
obstructing you it is unnecessary to
do 1t with force or it will become vio
lent or dangerous. Nudge him off if
he is bothering you. but don't use your
hands or arms. Also it does not make
any difference whether he Is facing
his own goal or not, as that has no
bearing on the charge from behind.
No Parlor Game
1t is not the intention of the penalty
kick law to make parlor game out of
soccer. but it is the intention to have
it clcanly and fairly played by every
player and dirty tricky play completely
eliminated Good honest charging never
did anybody any harm and vigorous play
makes life worth while, but deliberate
intent to injure should not be permitted
for moment. Accidents will happen,
the utmost care cannot completely fore
stall them, but it is not part Of the
game to bring them about.

playing end Of the penalty kick, and the

BOB MARTIN TRAINING FOR
BOUT WITH BILL BRENNAN

Sparrng " h Sam McIey Veteran Boxer
by LOUIS II. JAFFE

CEVERAL events have happened in
~ the young twenty three year -old life
Of Bob Martin, heavyweight, in the
last three or four weeks and big one
Is to occur some time next month.
In the first place, Jimmy Bronson,
Martins manager, brought Scotty
Monteith into relationship with Bob's
career by arranging to have the New
Yorker help him bring the 'big boxer
into line for crack at Jack Dempsey.
Also. Sam McVey, the veteran negro
heavyweight, has been signed TO train
Martin. McVey's contract as sparring
period at $1,000 n month. That's lot
of money for trainer but both Bron-
son and Monteith believe the Negro $
experience in teaching Martin will
count lot in developing the eN sol
dier.
Martin, who has been in New York
for about a month, will take his first
step toward a battle with the champion
the second or third week in February.
Bob is tentatively matched with Bill
Brennan, and the knockout person
from Chicago Is no easy picking.
This bout will be the turning point
Brennan he will prove himself one of
the best heavyweights in the world
IL he loses, we'll Martin will have to
keep on trying.
There are numerous American r.. +.
champions in the various divisions,
IL all of the overseas 'tltlehOderS
can be believed. But Bob Martin alone
stands out as the heavyweight king OF
Uncle Sans cxprditionary forces This
has been decided unanimously by re-
cent announcement from the War De
partment.
Bronson and Montrith have formed a
boxing bureau, and they are r"pr"s"nt-
ing a stable of more thun a dozen glove
men, including boxers Of all tn" differ

GERMANTOWN WIN
Manager Of Local Cage Team
Says First Place Is for
Suburbanites

There will be new leaders in the
Eastern League Basketball race this
evening, according to Dave Bcunis,
manager of the Germantown team,
which last night won its second homo
game of the final series at Auditorium
Hall at the expense of Philadelphia BY
the score of 81 to "a.
Bcnnis said this morning he had re-
ceivcd a wire from Elmer Ripley that
he had left Scranton on his way her"
and added, II will have another sur
prise tonight" Dave certainly was
optimistic in his predictions and If con-
fidence counts for anything he Is batting
at 1000 average.
The champions have started the Sec
ond half in n winning mood and cap
turcd their two games last week, but
the SkeeterS have not exhibited the
same wonderful team work as last year
when they were the terror Of oil the
other clubs. The Camden Germantown
contests always jam the armory and

tion of previous affairs, for the locals

and this occurs in nearly every Ger

The opposition is out to cover two

advantage of jumping Meehan. Babe

The field goal shooting was seven to
six in favor of the home contingent.
Billy Miller came through with half
of those made by the Phils. Cross made
two and Passon one. The shot of the
latter was the best of the night. Every
Germantown player Gagged one goal,
with the exception of Glasgow, who
came through with three. The kid had
touch luck, as no less than three rolled
in and then out.
Some Foul Tossing
At the getaway, the players on both
sides were in form from the foul line
and there was not miss in the first
