S|DEL|NES RULE
ONLY CHANGE
BY DAVIS J. WALSH

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 13.-Foot-
ball will be conducted this year
with all plays starting at least
10 yards in from the sidellneS'
thus eliminating the waste OF a
down on the innocuous looking,
down-wasting out of bounds play
otherwise, it will be essentially
the same pastime with which the
1882 season was finished, clearly
indicating that the football rules
committee has finally mastered
more self-control than the man
who cuts his own hair.
The man who cuts his own hair
usually winds up with all cut ana
no hair. The rules committee IN
recent years has shown every
tendency toward winding up with
all rules and no game, but it fin
ished it's annual period of prayer
and meditation here yesterday
with a commendable degree OF
restraint. In the main, all it did
to and, this time, for the game
was to broaden offensive posi-
bilities with it's 10-yard zones
along either side line.
Move Ball Ten Yards
These were established so that,
when the play is stopped within
the prescribed area, the ball can
be moved 10 yards out from the
side of the field without the loss
of a down. In the event that the
play goes out of bounds altogether
the ball again is moved 10 yards
out, instead of IS, as heretofore
In this way, it is hoped tnaC
every rush will become potentially
a touchdown-play and I should
say that the potentiality is a
great deal more actual than theo-
retical. Under the old system,
any rush that was started within
three yards of the side lines had so
little chance that they preferred
to forfeit a down in going outside
in order that they might have a
chance on the next play.
The committee, after spending
hours in admiration Of its previ-
GUS findings, then broadened the
Interpretation of the rule against
clipping or the cutting down of a
defensive player from behind. The
old-timers used to call this ham
stringing" but modern hams do
not seem to be so well cured.
Anyhow, the committee ruled
yesterday that running into the
back of an opponent not carrying
the ball now constitutes clipping.
Cut Down Penalty
It also proceeded to get little
ingenious on the penalty for this
violation. On the theory that en-
forcement becomes stronger as the
punishment becomes weak, it de-
creased the penalty from Is to
Is yards.
And before drop the subject
finally and forever, I'd like to call
attention to the extraordinary be-
havior of interference, which now
will run around in front of a man
before hitting him violently in the
bosom. That is, if the man will
let them. If he doesn't desire to
be taken out of play, all he need
do, according to the rules, is to
cut his opponents socially by turn.

PAIR To GET
QUARTERS
IN SHAPE
BY GARRETT WATERS

Another one of those tinid
breaths of spring blows itself into
the local baseball horizon this
week with the scheduled depar-
ture for Biloxi Of two Of the old
est institutions of the Washing
ton Baseball Club.
Yep, none other than Trainer
Mike Martin and Frankie Baxter
leave for training headquarters
and their departure opens the an
nual spring baseball season To-
cally, as shortly after their arri-
val at Biloxi, the remainder of
the Griffmen check in at dates
so ordered by President Clark
Griffith and Manager Joe Cronin.
Leave Saturday
Mike and frankie are due to
push their trunks and suitcaseS
on the train Saturday, arriving
sometime Sunday night. The good
old game of pinochle no doubt
will take up their time during the
trip, both principals being expert
players.
The duties of the pair at Biloxi
every year are always important.
1t is their work to get the two
clubhouSeS at the spacious Biloxi
park in readiness for the players.
They also must see that the dia-
mond itself is in fair enough
order for the batting and pepper
drills, while a very special duty
IS the putting up of the volley
pail net for those torrid volley
ball games during the first two
weeks of practice.
Mike and frankie truly like
the work they must do every
season as the baseball campaign
to them is the greatest event in
their lives. And they're a pretty
capable team. having been to-
gether many years now. Yes,
girls frankie is the youngest of
the pair and quite a good looking
fellah.
Like Chances.
Both men are enthusiastic over
the chances of the Griffmen this
year. Mike thinks the team will
be the most aggressive since the
pennant winning season of 1924.
frankie can't see anything else
but championship. They've been
around a long time and their
opinions are worth plenty.
Rubbing arms, shoulders, legs
and thighs. will be the particular
job of Mike and frankie, once the
training season has had a chance
to get several days under way.
The pair have been quite fortu-
nate in the past two or three sea-
sons in that few have turned up
with injuries, sore arms and the
like. But most anything can
happen and Mike and frankie
will be prepared. they say, pre-
pared to make and keep Prexy
Griff's employees in tip top trim
for the important season which
will follow training activities.

SHUTE STAGES
HEROIC FINISH

TAMPA, Fla, Feb. 13.-A Gar
rison finish in the last round to-
day had netted Denny Shute,
Cleveland star, a purse of $500
and the annual Gasparilla open
golf championship.
Apparently out of the running
at the three quarter mark, Shute
reeled off a dazzling 33 and an
almost unbelievable 30 for a 63
on the last 18 holes to tie Willie
MacFarlane of Tuckahoe, N. Y,
at 272 for the 72-hole grind. In
the one-hole play-off shute won
with a regulation par against
Willie's S.
Shute's So shattered par by
seven strokes and set a new
course record. Denny and Mac
Farlane were eight under par
for the 72 holes.
Johnny Revolta Of Menomi-
nee, Mich, third with 276, and
Horton Smith of Chicago, fourth
with 279, also bettered the regu-
lation figures. Craig Wood Of
Deal, N. j., sensation Of the West
Coast tournaments, equaled par
with 280 and finished fifth.
Paul Runyan of White Plains,
N. Y. defending champion, was

long left from Jeff, bumped
into the ropes by mistake and
bounced right back again into
the path of Jeff's fist.
He was knocked sitter than
a board.
That was May II, 1900. Now we
come to San Francisco two years
later. Jeff at this time was % and
right in his prime. Corbett at
81 was to try once again to win
back his old title.
Jim Coffroth matched the pair
to fight 20 rounds at Mechanics
Pavilion.
Jeff 1O-tO-4 FavOrite
Jeff went to Harbin Springs
to get in shape, and Corbett
repaired to Crol's Gardens in
Alameda, across the bay from
Frisco.
The fight attracted a great
deal of interest. 1t was, in
fact, the biggest gate that was
ever handled in California.
Jeffries was a 10-to-4 favorite
in the betting. He was cocksure
of winning, but just the same bet
$4,000 on Corbett to save himself
in case he was outpointed. He
couldn't forget their last meeting.
Bob FitZSimmons and Billy De
laney trained and handled Jeff.
Tommy Ryan trained and second
ed Corbett. AS the men faced
each other that night they made
a great picture. Corbett, tall and
thin with the face of professor;
Jeffries, big and wide with bulg-
ing muscles and bubbliny youth.
Hardest Punch of All
Corbett got by the first round
nicely. He was boxing superbly
and worried the swarthy giant,
who was the title holder. In the
second round, however, Jeff
ripped a left to Corbett's midriff
and almost tore the ex-champion
apart. 1t was Sickening thud
that seemed to squash Corbett's
insides. The latter fell on JEFF
fries shoulder and held. He
didn't fall, but he was hurt badly.
He told this writer after that it
was the hardest punch he ever
got in his career. It killed what
ever chance he had. He was
never the same Corbett after that.
He was slowed down and when
another, almost a duplicate of
that punch, got him in the
fourth, he fell to the floor. He
got up at nine and the bell
saved him. In the fifth Jeff
hooked him above the ear with
that same left with such force
that the glove burst and Corbett
fell to the ropes as Referee Gra-
ney stopped the fight in order to
get jeff a new mitt.
No Mercy For COrbett
That rest saved Corbett again.
When they got going again Jeff
forcer Corbett around the ring,
swinging vigorously. He took no
chances with his boxing skill, but
tore in, taking what the weak
ened Corbett had in order to rip
his own left to the body. He
had no pity for his former teach
er. Corbett danced and jabbed,
ducked and sidestepped, but the
punch in the body in the second
round had sapped his strength
so that he was a mere shadow
Of the Corbett of other days.
In the tenth, Jeff ripped an
other left to the pit of the stom-
ach. Corbett'S mouth formed a
perfect 90" as he slipped to the
floor on his hands and knees. It
was a cruel belt.
Carried From Ring
There was no count. Tommy
Ryan, seeing his man drop,
threw the towel into the ring.
Corbett was paralyzed and had
to be carried to his corner.
The pupil had mastered the
teacher again.
