CAN NARDONS STOP LLIN Outcome of Game Will Be Interesting to Gridiron Fans By LAWRENCE PERRY. Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune. NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—Can Chica- + go stop Illinois? This is the ques- tion being asked throughout the con: ference, Of colirse some such rival as Towa or Ohio State may turn the trick, but at the moment Chicago is to be in the limelight as the chief opponent of Tilini. It now seems clear that the ma- roons are coming up to their im: ? nf eleven. That meang team. The center problem has been center and 4 Lampe’s lose at counted by the game Barte and Lo! aré playing. In the backfield, John Thomas, Zorn and Piott are greatly missed, but Harry Thomas has hev- er been playing @ better game in the back tield.

If he does, he won't eurprise Mickey, who is taking euch @ pl into account. Jock is a middieweight and it has not been understood that he would try to reduce down. Afid in fact, nothing has come from his camp shat he will. It is more speculation than anything else, He is working out at the Chicago Athletic club and rumors about his welterweight intentions have been caused by the vigor of his exercises. Of course, if he should appear at the welter limit, he might be pretty well’ weakened and thi: would not be a good thing, considering the man whom he ts going to tackle. And, again since decisions are not permitted in Jersey where the battle Is to take place—he would have to knock Walker out to win the tit'e. Even newspaper decisions would not gain him the crown. . ‘Walker has already lost a decision to thé Minnesotan—it was before Mickey was champion — and he knows Jock’s style, which is a tying up method of boxing, pretty well. He figures that his improved wallop will deal effectively with these tactics it Malone seeks to repeat them. A knockout, of course, is what Mickey is after, since seeing that Leonard 1s not going té fight him, he wants to meet Harry Greb for the middle- weight crown. Greb is willing to tackle almost anyone, but to date has not given three cheers about meeting the slug- ging Jorseyman, SOME IDE@ WHAT guy FoR MYSELE “ PAGE SEVEN, Firstin News Of All Events way, !

If you have some question to ask about football— If you want a rule interpreted— If you want to know anything about a play— ‘ Write to Lawrence Perry, for fitteen years an authority on the game as writer and official. If you want @ personal reply en- close a stamped, self-address envelope. Otherwise your ques- ton will be swered in this QUESTION—Team A_ punts to Team B who fumbles, The ball rolls Team a a juarterback but is tackled and downed back of both his goal line and end tine. The referee ruled a touchback but J thought the ball should be placed on B's end line and that if Team B did on the next ball past’ Sie” goa! line on nex: qi credited with « safety. Answer—This matter was a quos- tion of personal judgment on the part of the refe: If he decided that in the case he fumbled punt the original impetus of the ball and not the fumble then he would—or should—have called it asafety. The fact that the quarterback was down- @d back of the end line is immate- rial. The whole question as be- tween a safety and a touchback re lates to the source of the impetus. QUESTION—Team B attempts to forward pass but the ball is knocked from the passer’s hand. Should an incompleted forward pass be decid- ed, or is Team A free to recover the ball? ANSWER—Until », ball is actual- ly thrown {t is not a forward pass. A ball knocked from a prospective forward passer's hand obviously haw not been thrown and consequently it is a loose ball.

TIGERS TO PLAY ROCKNE’S TEAM G Battle Looms ureat at Princeton in ' Perea oat By WALTER CAMP (Copyright, 1924, Casper Tribune) NEW YORK, Oct. 24.—Two of the vital games on Saturday's pro: gram are the Washington and Jefterson-Lafayette game at New York, which ended last year in a 66 tle, and Princeton-Notre Dame clash at Princeton, which Rookne eleven won last year, 26. Next behind these will come the Harvard-Dartmouth game at. Har- vard (won last. year by Dartmouth 16-0); the Yale-Brown game at New Haven. (won last year 21-0); Ponn State-Byracuse at State College (0- 10) and Michigan-Wisconsin at Ann Arbor (6-8). Of all these; probably the Prince- ton-Notre Dame contest will take Precedence in the mind of the gen- earl public, although there are still many who remember the wonder- tul W & J-Lafayette of a few years ago when W & J came back in the econd half, after Lafayet WOULD Ge ASHAMED SULVES Y THEY GON 1%-point lead, and won by @ score of 14-13, The Princeton-Notre Dame game will certainly be a terrific struggle, for Princeton is out for venge for the terrible beating the South Benders gave her last year. But unless Princeton has a better defense against Rockne’s plays than she has given anyone reason to sup- pose, the game shtuld go once moré to Notre Dame. The Penn StateByracuse game will attract much attention and will mean much to the standings: of the two teams. There is some doubt whether Bezdek, lacking Wilson, can gét revenge for last year's de- feat, but the writer is inclined to think Penn State will play a better game against Syracuse than last year. The California-Washington State game at Berkeley is a very vital one to coast football. Everyone knows that Andy Smith's team has been depleted somewhat in the last two years and all his rivals are out to beat him. a sens SPORT BRIEFS PHILADELPHIA = Renato Gar- dint, Italian wrestler, defeated Ivan Brasoff, Ri n, in the internation.
