Captain MeGraw of Pennsylvania pulls the Speaker stuff. He plays close up to his line so as to be ina position to help the defense. When a punt is the play, he goes back a much shorter distance than most quarters, banking on his speed and unerring accur in handling the ball. Incidentally he prefers to catch punts over his shoulders, which enables him to describe a wide are and keep going at full speed ra- ther than starting from a dead stop.

Observers in advanced posi- tions release the birds, carrying messages telling where the shells are falling, and they are trained to {fly back to the lines. This method jwould be used when other channels |of communication, such as radio or telAfhones, were not available. The ire utilized pigeons to direct fire on the eastern front yg the World War, There are now 1500 pigeons at jvarious posts, in the keeping of the Signal Corps, which has a breeding jcenter for them at Camp Vail, N. J. The birds are retained at the various army corps area headquarters, in the insular possessions, and in Panama. It-takes from ten days to two weeks, officers say, to train a pigean to return to its loft and get its bear- lings, Pigeons do not fly well at {night and as a rule are not out- {standing in intelligence. Difficulty ihas been experienced with pigeon ‘fanciers in the army, who wish to make pigeons a major @nethod of communication, Only one bird in ten is considered capable of flying 500 miles in one day. In the Canal Zone, hawks constant- ly menace pigeons while in flight. To overcome this, a whistle is fast- ened to the tail of the bird, and as it flies, the rush of air causes the whistle to sound and frightens away birds of prey. BERLINERS FLOCK TO SEE LOCAL FIGHTERS PUNCH BAG Berlin, Dec. 18.—Prize fighters in Germany are, for the moment, roll- ing in clover. Instead of existing on beer and sausage and black bread, as was the case with many of them a year ago, the pugilists are again in their prime, living on milk,and hon- ey and splendid steaks, Paper mark days for the fighters were lean, and a good many of them had to go to work, But with the stabilization of the mark the fight fans have de- veloped in astonishing numbers, and crowd the sport halls. The fans just can’t get enough of the fight game, it seems, Samson Koerner, the champion heavyweight, as been appearing in vaudeville with Artie Kauffman, of Harlem, N sparring partner. In_addi- tion Koerner appears every day at noon at Berlin’s largest sport pal- ace, and fans jam the place to see the 37-year-old fighter punch the bag and go through other training and exercising movements. Hans Brietenstraeter, the former German heavyweight champion, who ined his first victory in San Fran- co some years ago, also gives daily exhibitions of his training, as does George Cook, the heavyweight champion of Australia, who has been fighting in Europe for several years.
