Staff Cofrespondent. | PARIS, Ever play “doughboy”? Probably not—for the game was only invented recently in’ France. It’s a medley of football, basket- ball and indoor baseball. It’s an American-made game, devised by Brig.Gen. A. W. Bjornstad, U. S. A. The new game has been played by soldiers at every camp Uncle Sam has in France and the occupied sec- tion of Germany. It's popular, too. The unique thing is that teams-num- bering anywhere from 21 to 200 can play “doughboy.’ The game, carried j back to the United States by. the re- turning A. E. F., probably will spread. It ought to be popular as a~part of | school and college athletics. Here’s the way the game is played end the sort of field its played on: Sides are divided into two or more squads, numbered serially, Squads contain not less than 6 nor more than 15 men, including a squad leader. Each. squad is divided into offense and de- he, former, called’ the ang leader, and the lat- ne guard, has a. captain. The smallest tield possible for play is made like this: ‘Trace two. parallel lines _ ot._ whitewash 50 yards apart, each line 56 yatds long. At each end of each line place a, target—a padded pole 7 1:2 feét high. Place similar tar: gets along each line. at eight-yard in; tervals, making eight on either side. Around this rectangle trace a white- { wash line, making an outer rectangle, leaving an open strip 20 yards wide on every side. i SIMILAR TO BASKETBALL GOAL. ‘At the’ topof! eden tatget place: a hoard, 12 inches square and below it, like a basket ball goal, a houp 24 in- ches in diameter: Hanging from the hoop should beja net closed at the bottom s0 as to-retain a” ball faving into it. a The targets are. numbered setially, ehch' bearing the same number om the upper’square board as the target op- posite, The ball should be a: canvass or leather covered football eight fiches in diameter, Each squad side—call it the Elacks—has balls painted black with a white number. The opposing team—say the Whites—has white balls: With biack numbers. its own ball, each numbered accord- ing to the squad number, Thus on the 56-yard field each opposing team would have eight squads; if six to a squad, 48 men in all. If there are only twelve men to a team and thus only two squads, then only two tar- gets are used. The game is divided into nine in- nings of three minutes each,.with one minute interval between innings. The object of the game is for the attacking gang of each squad of the Black team to try to get its own ball into the White target net bearing the same number as its own ball. Vice versa for the White team. Meanwhile the defensive guard of each squad en- deavors to prevent the opposing. at- tacking gang’ from getting its similar- ly numbered ball “into the similarly numbered target being defended. When a gang passes, throws or kicks its own ball into the target of the same number—say Black’s No. 1 ball into No. 1 target that the White team is defenditig—a “butt’ is scored. “Bulls” count as: runs do in baseball. ber of “bulls”—including squads—wins the game. But when a ball goes into the tar- all its the end of the intfng. The ball is also out of play for the rest of the inning if the ball, say Black’s No. 1 ball, by. accident or. design. strikes any . part of the target Black’s No. 1. squad is defending. z ball goes into any of White team’s tar- gets other than No. 1 target the um- Dire throws it into the center of the out of bounds, outside the outer. rec- tangular line of the playfg field m| LOSERS LEAVE FIELD FOR INNING, target the defense—“guard’ of the op- posing squad—has° lost and the de- fenders leave the field for the balance driven the ball back by accident or dt sign it strikes the opposing squad’s own target—Black’s No ing the target Black’s defending—then — the “gang” of Black No. 1 squail—hés lost. and the attacking. gang leavés the Mfield for that inning. - But when a squad gang has shot 1 squad is Hits proper target the gang leader or Heuard leader can’ direct” what” other’ zang-or guard of his squad his men f reinforce. “ The various squad { ers and the: team captain can” all times play eithér the bals of 't: i sat di oF of ~ WHITE FLAGMAN TARGETS: o ° o ° TARGETS sérs—— .

FLAGMAN' “DOUGHBOY” From twelve to 200 players can par- ticipate in a game of “Doughboy.’ It was invented in France by Brig. Gen. A. W. Bjornstad of the A. E. F. It has become very popular among the Americans “over there.” .. It’s a combination of football, bas- ketball and indoor baseball. If would be a great sport to pro- mote and athletic directors could start the game in colleges or on municipal fields. You might as well get ac- quainted with it so you can talk about it with the boys coming back. They'll be raving over it like the old fans do over baseball. squad target, the squad leader saving placed his ball anywhere on the field) within two yards of the target. One of the attacking gang kicks off at the whistle. : 2 A player may play his own squad’s; ball by’ kicking, butting, striking or throwing; he may catch the ball, but! he.must, instantly throw it, pass it,, kick it or drop it: in no case may he Tun with it or hold it longer than ne- cessary to throw, pass or kick. Any player may: play the opposing squad's ball by kicking, butting or striking. but he is not allowed to caten. it,! throw it or hold it in his: hands. . No| | player may pick a ball off the! ground | with his hands. The referee is the big boss. signs umpires. There is for each ball in’ play. Foul holdifig.a player, tripping h | ing him while ranning.or striking -him (except in knocking the ball out of+ hig hands), are punished by ruling the offending player out for an_in- ning or the whole game. If a sang or guard fails to leave the field when; it has Jost“an inning it can be ruled | out for the rest of the game. If this’! happens in the last inning the offend-; ing side'is penalized by 9 “hull” bet ing awarded the opposing team. { i CHANGE: SIDES | EACH INNING Sides are changed after each inning. Two flagmen, h-with a tall pole bearing a-blaek and white flag, stand in the middle of the: open.:strips, be- hind. each line of targets, exchanging places after each’ inning." At the end of each inning: the scorer runs down the line of targets, count the balls in the target nets of each side, making’ sure the right bal is in the right tar-| et, and records the score. j, “Your own job your own ball.” ays General Fjornstad, inventor of “doughboy.’ “If you forget you de stroy teamwork. Keep your eye on the ball—the gangmen on th ball and the guardsmen on the enemy ball.” Naturally the variously numbered balls of the various squads are likely to get mixed up—and the players too —ag the game of many squads goes" on. That's part of the game—to keen one’s own ball in a restricted area of the field, in.the vicinity of the proper objective, the target bearing the same number as the ball. There is no such thing as “offside.” Tribune Want Ads Bring Results.
