Of course this has been done before, but Fred expects to put the ‘Giant Fred Fulton, Who Is After Jess Willard, Will Be Given Good Tryout In New York crusher over in the first or second round. Experts who have seen Ful- ton work here are of the opinion that he is a pocket edition of Bob Fitzsim- mons and pi es a knockout wallop in either mit. In addition he is a fairly good boxer and ring general. Next to Willard he is the tallest man that has ever appeared in the ring. | Trainer Tex O'Rourke had the tape over Fulton the other day and Fred | was astonished when he found that he was two inches taller than his old measurements indicated. Fulton in | his fighting shoes is 6 feet 6 1-4 inches. | O'Rourke allowed a half inch for the | thickness of his shoe ‘heel, Ehil makes his actual height 6 feet inches.

FINAL ORDERS ARE ISSUED TO UMPS peed and Order to Be Insisted on By Dan O’Neil's Arbiters— Raules Are Defined. Springfield, Mass., April 28—Speed and order are to the two out- standing features the Iastern league games this year if the arbiters act as Vice President Dan O’Neil in- structed them to do, at a meeting in Cooley’s hotel yesterday afternoon. TLeague Manager O'Neil told the umps that it would be necessary to live up all the rules laid down by the league, but in seeing that the rules are enforced the umps must also keep the game moving so that fans will be interested. A report will be re- quired each day. Vice President O'Neil assigned Stafford to this city, Doherty to Hartford, Bannon to New Haven. Waters to New London and Ennis to Bridgeport. These assign- ments will change after Saturday ac- cording to the schedule for the fi games which League Manager O'Neil has drawn up. O'Neil intends to have every umpire work in each city an equal number of times. In talking over the work for the m with his staff of umpires Mr. O’'Neil emphasized the necessity for speed and discipline. He said that it would be all right to let the coachers do plenty of talking when on the line, as long as the remarks were not pointed. Vice President O’Neil told his staff that talking livened up the game and fans went to a ball game to see life. He said that the league would use the old ruling in regard to touching base runners, and that the infield fly ruling would be strictly adhered to. The ruling which states that the dropping of a os while winding up constitutes a ballk would also be enforced. Vice President O'Neil said that whenever possible the umps should insist on games going the full nine innings. In double-headers TLeague Manager O’Neil sald he belleved that the fans should be given at least 18 innings of ball. This would be made ible he said if the umps Would keep things going all the time. Vice President O'Neilhas a good squad of umpires on hand and if they live up to his rulings, the fans should see some snappy and well-disciplined games. Besides the regular umps on his staff he has Dan Kelly of Hol- yoke, of Springfield college, McCarthy of Hartford and Conway of Lewiston, Me.
