BOXING RULERS CURB
.HOT.AIR CHALLENGES

NEW YORK, October s.-An effort
is to be made by the State Athletic
Commission to put an end to the
practice Of boxers' managers issuing
meaningless challenges for advertis-
ing purposes. Chairman George f.
Brewer announced after a meeting Of
the commission. The first step to-
ward improving conditions will be to
obtain from each manager under the
commissions jurisdiction list Of
boxers whom his fighters are to op-
pose.
This arrangement fs expected to
afford the commission a chance to
check on a boxer whenever he pub
licly issues a challenge. and to call
him to task II the object of his chal-
lenge Is not on the list published by
his manager. The new plan, it is
hoped, also will make easier the task
OF the club matchmakers and promo
ters who have complained recently Of
appealed to them.
Chairman Brewer announced at the
close OF the meeting that Mike Nc
Tigue. hght-heavyweight champion
OF the world. will have to defend his
title against Gene Tunney, American
champion, before he will be permit
ted to box Paul Berlenbach at Madi-
son Square Garden November Z. as
planned by Promoter Tex Richard.
Leo p. Flynn, manager of Jack Re-
nault, Canadian heavyweight, and
Dave Shade. California challenger for
the welterweight title, appeared be-
fore the commission and accepted the
return of $4,000 bond he posted
several weeks ago to bind match
between Shade and the winner Of the
Mickey Walker-Benny Leonard well
terweight championship bout which
was abandoned when Leonard con-
tended his hand had been injured.
Chairman Brewer said that Walker
will not be permitted to box in this
State until he consents to defend his
title against Shade.

Last year players fitted from one
team to the other with the prospect
of earning more coin. There was
no strict eligibility code and the
team that could afford 1t got the best
talent. Before the annual clash be-
tween Mercury and the Mohawks an
agreement was reached whereby
players were eligible who performed
in only one or two games.
In one instance last season an un-
limited contender played some COM
paratively unknown lightweight team
and thereby called all of its players
eligible for the more important
matches.

The large score rolled up against
Amherst was significant, not because
of it's size, but the workmanlike man
ner in which it was attained. There
was a sequen ntiaI rushing attack, very
we'll conceived, which went off tackle
as a rule, powerful center thrust
and a varied forward passing game Of
high merit. Not since 1896 have the
Tigers been blessed with SO many
elusive, hard-running. fighting backs.
The line needs attention, but the ma
terial is there and the interference
was extremely good for this season
of the year. Princeton will bear
watching.
The Tigers used no quarterback for
signals; they employed the hpddle
system which has been seen at Chi
cago and Yale. Having got the play,
the men move swiftly to their places.
massing the preponderance OF the
line TO right or left of center as the
case may be. Th~ ball is passed at
once and the play is away. The backs
arc aligned in square formation, with
the ball coming direct from center.
When this scheme is further perfect
ed and the linemen snap into their
charge with greater vigor. this
method Of launching play should
be very puZzling to any defense.
The tackling will stand improve
ment. But all in all, Nassau put up
an exhibition characterized by su-
prising strength and facility.

with Washington and Lee last week.
George Washington is in rather an
unfortunate position in having to
hold practice on the Monument
grounds. 1t might as we'll send all
ITS plays and everything it has in the
way of offensive equipment to it's op-
ponents, because there is nothing to
hinder them having men to watch

Georgetown is getting ready for its
game with King College here Satur-
day, and while many reports are coming
from the Hilltop about the coaches
be!ng GlSSatlSned with the outlook,
in all proba bility the Blue and Gray
will place on the field about as strong
a combination as il has had in years.
And. something else. despite the great
reputation which has preceded the
King College eleven. Georgetown
probably will win without much diff
ffculty. At least. that is the opinion
expressed by a former foot ball play
er who has watched the Tennessee
team in action this fall. This player
says. King College has a good team
for its class, but as for being able 10
beat Georgetown, there's nothing to
1T GEORGETOWN will win by a good
score"
Maryland and George Washington,
on the other hand, are certain to get
plenty of opposition Saturday. The
Old Liners, who will entertain tho
University of Richmond at College
Park. will be meeting one of the best
elevens the old Dominion school ever
has turned out. And the sensational
Maryland team of last year only beat
Richmond, % to 0, and none of the
members of the regular backfeld
that scored these points will be in
Saturdays combat. The Hatchetites
are to take on Western Maryland
here and will have to be much better
than they have shown SO far to be in
the running.

Ho1c much aulae do you attach to
the 1rork Of scouts ~ Preparation for
coming games?
Answered by
ANDY SMITH .r,
Coach of foot ball. University Of Cali
fornia. his teams indicated during
four years past; former AIl-American
fuIlback.
To me the value of scouting an
opponent thoroughly is Of vast i'm
portance in order to prepare MY
team intelligently for a contest. In
TACT, / consider good scouting of
opponents during the season about
40 per cent of the success of any
foot ball team. For instance, every
of offense and this should be con-
veyed to your own team by dia-
grams on the blackboard in lining
up the scrub team or the freshman
team with the respective opponents
offensive formations. In this way
you can familiarize your own team
with the formations of your oppo-
nentss and you can prepare your
team to meet their strong plays to
not be surprised by their trick plays
and to be able to block their favor
ite forward passes.
The foot bali team should have a
thorough knowledge of the style OF
defense used by their opponents.
Some teams may use a six-line de-
fense and other teams a seven-line
defense. One team may have a high
line and the other a low-charging
row. One team may have ends that
come into smash interference while
another my have ends who stand
on the line of scrimmage and wait.
A perfect knowledge of what the
secondary defense will do under GER
tain conditions is Of value. to your
quarterback in running his team.
