ANSONIA ACORNS VS BLUEJACKETS
 THIS EVENING
C0nquerors of AlI.Water. bury Face New Haven Club in Night Game at Savin Rock @

New Haven. Oct L-The All- Waterburys. m aggregation of for mcr high school and semi-pro stnrs, prepared for two weeks to enter the running for the state championship. Last Sunday they opened their campaign meeting the Ansonia Acorns and when the closing whistle blew the amazed Brass City eleven found itself on the short end of GO score.
 Tonight at Donovan field the Acorne. who years ago were king pins of the Valley in football and who seem 10 havo come back strong. will oppose tho Elm City BlueJackcts in the second game of the season for the New Haveners. They will bring here lineup that includes Ernie Strnng, smashing fullback of the old school--one of the Red Quinn type. At right tackle the Ansonians will have Eddie Dempsey, 200-pound tackle. one of the fastest and hardest big lincmen in state ranks. And they expect to ndd the Jackets to the list of eliminated teams.
 Despite the fact that Buddy Howard will shortly report to the New York Giants' pro football team, Manager Jimmy Gleason expects him to be in the Blue jacket lineup tonight to do the kicking, fl feature in which he has excelled for several years. Charley Jones of Branford will be n new conner in the JncketE lineup at quarterback and he is expected to provide an offensive punch. lack ing in the first game. Two good relief men have been added by Gleason. They are "Ncph" Lynch, Fair Haven boy, and Billy Monde, former Collegiate Prep star.
 Inasmuch as fans arc not con- tent with merely defensive foot ball. no more than they like de- fensivc fighting. the Jackets will concentrate every effort against the Acorns on offensive play. Held 0-0 in the opener with All-Tor. rington. tonight they will be bent on scoring points to give them q siznble ncoripg total.
 Also, from tho fans standpoint. the announcement that prices have been reduced materially over those prevailing for the opening game, is of interest.

Boxing Perks Up
 a Bit in Hartford

Hartford. October [ --.- Ralph Lenny. the classy. olive skinned kid from Union City. N. J.. and Eddie Kid Mays of Chicago will meet in the eight round Eemi-finnl to the Louis Kid Khplan- Eddie Holmes bout nt Foot Guard Hall. October IS. This show will be tho first under the auspices of the new ly formed Capital A. C. and will officially open the Indoor season here.
 Mays has beaten Eddie Kid Wolfe. Buster Brown and -- in his two eastern starts -- has whipped Wild Man Firpo Of Providence and Bristol Brown of Fall River.
 The usually peaceful Louis Kid Kaplan has kicked up something of q fuss that may take little ironing out but which is not ex. pected to hold up the show. Rap Ian strenuousiy objects to boxiug three days after the staging of d wrestling show at Foot Guard. The wrestling men tentatively have planned to put on q show featur. ing Ed "Strangler" Lewis on Mon- day, October 10. Kaplan does not feel that Hartford will patronizc both shows and that one of them must suffer.
 Eddie Holmes is tho man who recently pounded out n decision over Bat Battaiino. He also has beaten Billy Lynch, Harry Devine and fly Diamond. Holmes dropped n close decision to Sammy Fuller of Boston.
 Meanwhile Bat Battalino is pre-. pairing for his bout at Chicago with Barney Ross, the Windy City's lightweight sensation. The bout will probably be held october f2.

Tn view of this. Colonel John s. Hammond, president of the New York Rangers. settled back in his office chair at Madison Square Garden last night and skimmed over the hockey outlook which he termed Unusually bright.
 Looks Good
 "Therell be no depression in hockey this season." said the Col onei. Not that there ever has been. But. I believe new attend ancc records may be set by several clubs in tho National lcague--and I'll tell you why"
 of Ottawa's club to the league this of eight clubs would increase in- tcrcst in the play. This gives tho Canadian division five clubs; the New York Americans, Toronto, Montrcars Maroons, MontreaPs Canadlicns and Ottawa, while the American division retains its usual four: the New York Rangers, De- troit, Boston and Chicago.
 But the most important stimulus to the game, Colonel Hammond emphasized, will be the injection of new blood into the circuits lineups as fl result of the so-called "out- law" leagucs' recent submission to National league supervision. Many valuable players have been drawn from the minors to bolster hitherto weak National clubs. This will make the teams better balanced and insure stiff competition on all sides. For example. Detroit will start off with m aggregation of brilliant minor stars. and several other outfits will profit similarly.
 "The big problem this year." Hammond said. Twill bc to cut down to the player limit of IT men and goalies. because of the wealth of players"
 Each club will play 24 homo games, beginning November 15 to 17 and continuing until March 13. Training for most clubs will start about October 20. Tho Rangers and their Springfield farm club will start training nt Lake Placid, Octo- Der 21. having shifted their train ing camp from Toronto this year.
 No Increase
 Hockey will be operating under q 10 per cent government tax this season, but Colonel Hammond be- licved the clubs will absorb the tax without increasing admission prices. In fact, he said. prices on certain classes of seats may Do reduced.

Whistle Sounds, Calling Ball TOter Back After
 Knee Hit Ground
(Tlis K the Hfti, article of n series discussing the changes In the 1882 football ruIcs.)
By CHESER l.. SMITH NEA Service Special Writer

Your faVorite halfback hnsh lhe ball! The game is tied, and only il minute remains to play. He fakes fl sweep ht the end. cuts back through tackle, falls t0 one knee but Is up again in an instant and, by cleveriy lodging. races down the held for~~nothing nt all!
 It would be no touchdown under the new rule governing n dead ball. At the point where the half. backs thec touched the ground the play would end. for ns written by the rules committee lant winter the bal lis dead when "nny portion of the player having the ball. cx. cept his hands or feet. touches tho ground"
 In fact. the player runs the risk of incurring ii penalty if he trie, 10 advance after being down. His team may be punished for "crawl. ing"
 This is the most drastic of ni the new rules and has caused more discussion than any other change Some say it will prevent many in. juries caused by thcklcr diving into Il player who is off balance and unable to protect himself. Il is argued that the man carrying the ball has. nt the most. only on. hand 10 ward off tncklcrs and when he K partly down md trying tO re- gain his feet he Az m open target for m opponent trying to stop hi progress.
 Against the rule. it is argued thai shifty back will be pennlizcd un duly. in that this typo of carrier is often off his feet but is able t' regain his equilibrium and con, tnue the run it is claimed furthei that the slashing. strnight-ahcaf type of runner is given m undue edge over his more agile rival.
 There have been many conjcc, turcs what will happen on n wet slippery field.
