ENGINES BARELY MOVING

Grand Junction, March i7-Those
in touch with the shop situation along
the line of the Denver 4 Rio Grande
Western believe il significant that
material reductions in the force of
strike breakers employed in the local
shops should be made when the en-
gines now in service out of this city
are in dilapidated and dangerous
condition and able to continue on the
road only through the seeming failure
of the inspectors to find the defects
which in normal times would consign
them to the shops until repairs had
been made. Within the past few days
twenty-siN strike breakers employed
/ here have been discharged from the
service of the company. The force
was cut in spite of the fact that not
an engine running out of this terminal,
according to the men who handle them,
is in first class condition, and in spite
of the further fact that there is not
an engine held in reserve (whitc
ieaded) in the local yards at this time
when under normal conditions FULLY
one half of the motive power assigned
to this division would be in that con-
dition.
The discharge of this large number
of workmen has aroused considerable
debate as to whether it signifies q
willingness on the part of the COM
pany to restore their former employees
to service, or whether it is a comics.
sion on the part of the officials OF
the motive department of the ineffi.

The men now discharged were EN-
ployed in the various capacities a,

ers. They are at loss to account
for their dismissal, and believe it bu

porting to sell U. S. Army last shoes.
These advertisements were sent broad

know, simply threw them into the

il needless to say the liberal discount

add additional teeth to the rule gov
erning this offense by making the
penalty imposed count from either the
spot of the foul or the place where
the ball was put in plaX, which ever
shall punish the offending side the
more severely. The fact that the rule
relating to fair catches and two men
signaling was clarified. will have
little effect on play itself
Probably the most radical change
after the elimination of the on-side
kick was making it possible to de-
cline the penalty on illegal forward
passes. This is an excellent move be-
cause often a side that has inter-
cepted an illegal forward pass has
been deprived of a really good run
resulting from such interception.
In connection with forward passes,
the word hand" was submitted for

the handling of the ball to man
ahead is a forward pass as much as
though the ball had been tossed, and
must he made according to the rule

points which is was provided shall

BIG lob SEEN FOR F|RPO
IN FIGHT WITH BRENNAN

NEW YORK, March 12.-Luis Angel
Firpo. South American heavyweight,
tonight will attempt to brush aside
the first obstacle in the path of a
championship bout with Jack Demp-
sey, when he meets the willy veteran
Bill Brennan, in a fifteen-round match
in Madison Square Garden.
Boxing followers think the hurley
South American has taken on a real
job in meeting Brennan. Any agree
able boost toward a championship
match calls for a decisive victory. If
not a knockout it is argued, where
upon the experts recall that the no
longer youthful Brennan has been put
to sleep on canvas but twice. and on
both occasions by Dempsey. Brennan
is the best man Firpo has yet been
called upon to meet.
They will weigh in at o'clock this
afternoon.
