T'm not saying that we haven't, t Detroit draws so many morz than we do.

Both teams are good fighters. Detr is a scrappy organization and there is nothing in the world that fans would like. to see more than Detroit lost game and there is nothing other teams would sooner do than beat Detroit. “McGraw has a scrappy team in the National league. Everybody in that or- ganization wants to beat the Giants, just like everybody in our '~~~ue would like to lick the Tigers. And although the Giants haven’t won a pennant for vears and vears, they continue to draw vast crowds simply because they have a grand fighting organization. “And Detroit also has a certain out- fielder who is quite an attraction.” HOW ARMSTRONG FELL, e o Sudden Defeat of the Big Black Told by Stuart Douglas. “If there was ever & promiisini who fell with a sudden flop,” says Stuart F. Douglas, now an alderman of New Hochelle, but once promoter of a hundred battles, “it was Bob Arm- strong, the gigantic negro whom Par- son Davies brought out some few years ago and who looked, for a little time, as if he could clean up everything in the heavyweight divis#m. The old record books tell how the towering Armsirong was toppled in a round by a smaller, lder negro—Frank Childs —and the old-time fight fans used to wonder how on earth that battle ever happened—how Parien Davies even permitted his champion to take a | chance when he was so. near the top of the ladder, and how Childs stung the mammoth with such great alacrity. It is a curious story and is now toid by Douglas in an interview with, W. A. Phelon. “One Saturday ni&ht, years back, Fred Stone, then matchmaker of the Chicazo . Athletic association, had booked Frank Childs for his wind-up, larzely to oblige some good fellows to whom the negro owed considerable money, and who saw in this fight their oply hope of getting back their coin. Some other fighter, of so little fame giant | lightly of the sketch, and on Friday afternoon he broke his arm while training. ‘“Stone 'phoned me, asking me whom 1 could dig up to meet Childs, and I decided o see Harry Glickauf, Parson Davies' Chicago representative, in hopes that he mignt have some minor boxer at hand and ready for a fray. I went over to the old Tremont ho to see Gilckauf, and as I entefed the hotel who should siride in but the gigantic Armstrong, whom the Parson had been -carefully coaxing along and who looked for all the world like the star of the heavyweight division. “Davies had been looking out for Big Pob for over a year, paying all his expenses, and matching him only to the best advantage, while Bob had been more than making good. The Parson, it seems, had beer called out of town, and had left the gimmt in Glickauf’'s hands, with positive orders not to let him box anyone, not even to g0 on inan exhibition, till he should return. When I saw the big fellow, I at once atiacked Glickauf with per- suasive arguments and flashes of the ready coin. = He wouldn't hear of it, but when I talked of the ease with which the aged and decrepit Childs could be trimmed, and also of the ample remuneration, Armstrong him- sclf grew vrestive. Ha treatened to kick over the traces if he didn’t get the fight, and, at last, Glickauf, see- ing only a cinch ahead, consented. “The next night, Armstrong, tower- ing over Childs, stalked info the ring. When the gong rang, he drove Childs around the square, picking at him with his long left and taiking patronizingly to him. ‘Come, lil' nig- gah, said the giant, ‘don’t yo-all be *fraid, Ah wor't huht yo'. Tay down ! when it comes too hot, 1il' man—dar’s nc need fo’ yo' to get injuhed. “Childs backed timidly round the padding, Armstrong stalking after. And sudderly, like a flash from a clear sky, Childs whirled and flung an | overhand right’ at the outsretched jaw of the glant negro. Armstrong—fell like a steer beneath the axe. He ambled up, mechanically, Gazed and stupefied. Then he walked over to the ropes, walked straight into them, and dove headlong out of the ring, landing sound asleep among the $5 chairs, Tt was the funniest thing that ever happened in 2 ring, and the glory of Bob Armstrong went into total eclipse forevery ‘The Parson and I had been pals for years, but he never spoke to me for two vears after this event, and there wae always a pained look ‘upon his countenance, even after he made Connie Mack has of figuring it.

Naturally, it was expected that we Tre annual conference of the foot- ball rules committee was held in New York last week. ;. Few changes in rules ‘were made, and those were slight. Some of the explanations were as follows: A for- rd pass which goes over the goal line or strikes the goal posts is a touchback. A bail it not dead when it strikes an official, and play must be continued as if the incident had not occurred. A forward pass illegally touched or recovered shall go to the opponents on the spot of the precedir down, instead of where ‘the foul oc curred. If a player loses the ball as he is making a forward pass the offi- cial must decide whether or not the ball in leaving his hand goes back ward or forward. If forward it con- stitutes an incompleted forward pass, if backward a fumble. If a foul is de- clared, for which the penalty would carry the ball over snall be placed on the one yard lin The attention of the officials was called to the rule relating to the pro- tection of the man carrying the ball. It was the censensus of opinion that last year this both by players and officials. Walter Camp interprted the rule, savin: “The man carrying the bill cannot be helpcd by zny other player, and any man who, whether accidentally or not, places a hand on the plaver to as- sist him, should be imposed with the penalty in cvery case..This rule should small- games, or eclse rouzhness crop out in the game. It is up to the coaches, captains and officials to in- sist upon strict interpretation of rules at all times.” On conditions_covering the after scoring, the first paragraph rule 1 is changed to read: “The teams shall not change goais after a try at goal following a touchdown, and after a goal from the field, but the side just scored upon shall have the option of kicking off or having their opponents kick off.” The rule originally included the words “a safety,” following the word after. On page 196 of the guide the last two lines, Section 2, reading, “If neitlfer is in possession of the bali, same as free ball” are expurgated. Rules govern- ing penalties have been changed. Sec- tion 5, paragraph A, now reads: ‘Play- line-up ball may use their hands and arms in ling the player who is carrying the . or in a bona fide attempt to get at the player with the ball.” Paragraph B of the same rule now reads: “Players of the side which did not put the ball in play ‘and are mot in possession of the hall shall tackle nor in any way hold opponents except in an actual attempt to tackle the player who is carrying the ball’ S’CHOLASTIC FOOTBALL.
