GET LIQUOR BY TELEPHONlNG FOR PATCHES" OR mNNER
 TUBES" ON BORDER

PLATTSBURG, March 1S.-"Send me down five inner tubes and six boxes of patches.'
 This telephone message may car ry little light to the men and wo- men who are uninitiated i'll the mys- teries of the alcohol trail. To cer- tain rum runners located at Cham plain and Rouse's Point, the source of supply at the border, however the apparently innocent order for supplies to keep the old flivver run ming, means an entirely different thing.
 Patches" in the new venacular of bootlegging as engaged in along the northern part of the State means Canadian ale" while inner tubes" means hard liquor. Ever hear some bird call up Rouse's Point, St. John or Champlain and ask the guy on the other end to bring me down ten boxes of inner tubes?" inquired one veteran today.
 we don't fall for that bunk. If you were in the game you would know inner tubes means whiskey, while patches means ale and beer. Why, just last night I sat in hotel here and heard a bird from Albany calling Bill at Champlain with Fed eral man sitting less than ten feet from him.
 Hello, Bill.' the runner said. Say, can you send me down six in ner tubes right away? I want them for a fellow that's buying a second hand car. Yeah, the same kind we sold Steve. He likes the Red brand best
 "The dry agent must have been asleep, for anyone with bit of sense would know this fellow did not come way up here to buy inner tubes for a second hand car from Champlain. The Red brand? Sure that's Johnny Walker, red label, the high priced stuff you get in Canada Each time a fellow orders an inner tube he means a case, you know the same goes with patches"

LONDON, March 19.-Frank Hod ges announced not long ago that he was going back to the mines.
 The boys are still waiting for him to do it.
 Hodges was civil lord of the ad miralty in the Macdonald govern ment.

 He announced that he would go back to the mines. He said he wanted to return to the place he had started from. Honest toll, he said, was his business. He told inter- viewers that he wanted nothing bet ter than to dig coal eight hours a day and draw paycheck every Sat urday night
 It got a play.
 But at present Hodges is touring the country making speeches in sup port of campaign to increase the miners wages 50 cents per ton.

MID-FIELD KICK
IS BELIEVED TO
SLOW UP GAME
Penalty For Off-Side
Play May Be
Reduced
By HENRY L. FARRELL,
(United Press Staff CorrespondentI

NEW YORK, Mar 13.-Lcading
officials and coaches here today
for the annual meeting of the foot
ball rules committee agreed that
nothing much is wrong with the
game and that the rules 40 not
need extensive revision.
Several minor changes probably
will be made III existing rules. 1t
is certain the kickoff rule will
be changed 50 that the old system
cf using "a tee on the kicker y 40
yard line will be restored.
Last year the ball was kicked
from midfield without tee and
almost invariably it landed behind
the receiver s goal i..ie. The game
was necessarily slowed up by tax
ing the ball out to the 90 yard line
to resume play. =
1t is also possible chang, may
be made i'll the rules altering the
penalty for off side play. The
rules now provide that the team
offended gets five yards and a
first down. Knutc Rocknc, Notrc
Dame coach, has been leading u
fight against the rule on the ground
that II is too heavy "A handicap on
the offending team.
Some changes may be made also
in the regulations regarding equip
ment as a result of a proposal made
by a prominent referee, who of
fieiatcd in one of the biggest games
of the season last year and found
an end with steel brace on his
knee.

Players Deserve Credit

The league this year was conduct
ed on Il purely amateur basis, none
of the players, umpires or officials
receiving any remuneration, and tho
schedule was played out only
through considerable personal sac,
rificc ON the part of all connected
with tho league. The players were
inspired solely by the love of tho
game and the desire to give tho
people of Imperial and FL Centre
good, clean, wholesome Sunday
sport, and III this they succeeded, al
though they did not have the sup
port from the public that they de-
served.
Next year it is hoped TO have an
enclosed park in El Centre, which
will make it possible to charge 4
small admission to the game, suffi!
cicnt at least to pay the cost of
equipment, thereby saving the play,
ers from having to stand all cX.
