GRIDIRON EXPERTS FEW. Average Football Crowd Quite a Con- trast to Baseball Followers. How many persons know anything about football? That is a question one is tempted to ask himself after reading some of the fiction “football” stories which bloom at this time of year and more especiaily after listening to some of the comments made by rooters during important games. The conclusion ar- rived at is that the person who has even a fair working knowledge of the gridiron sport is indeed a rara_avis, There are scores and hundreds of rooters” who have watched football games for several years who do not know even the rudimentary working principles of the game, to say noth- ing of the finer points which lie hid- den to the eyes of all except the most expert coaches, says L. G. Sullivan. The average football crowd is quite a contrast to the average baseball crowd. ~ Your baseball crowd knows or at least he knows enough to appreciate it ‘and not make breaks by condemning the of- for perfectly proper decision He may not be thoroughly familiar with the infieid fly rule or the balk rule; he may be constrained to differ th the official scorer in the question of allotment of hits and errors, but on the whole he has a pretty good workinz knowledge not only of the rules, but of the strategy of the same. The baseball fan like one overheard by the writer, who asserted that a pitcher in a world series passed the | first man up in every inning to make the second hit into a double play, still | lives, but his name is not Lesion. One of the most remarkable ms zine football stories of the present season, printed in one of the leading magazines of the country concerned | itself with the activities of a_player who, with a broken arm, carried the ball on twenty-two consecutive plays, cach for a gain of two yards, thereby winning the same. Granting that a superman of this type might exist, there are several other amazing parts of the story. In one place ‘he writer declar “this game was before the day of forward ; cheerfully tells of the vided into quarters. To make the tory still more complicated, he in- troduces the coaches of the contend- ing teams as going out on the field and coaching their men between the st and second and third and fourth quarters. He nezlects to state what the officials were doing all this time. Another story of this ycar told of a football plaver who scored two points and a victory on a play which could not under the rules he decidad as any- touchback. These are amples of fiction football list could be strung out terminably. There are only two writ- crs of football fiction whose works are accurate according to the rules, the first—now, don’t laugh—Burt Stand- ish, who used te write, and may still write, the Frank Merriwzll stories, and Ralph Heénry Barbour, who has contributed_an_interesting series of yards to the Daily News sporting Dage. Few of the rooters know the rules accurately. Every time one goes to a game one hears rooters exclaiming that this team has been penalized five yards for holding, that that team has been penalized fifteen yards for off- side or that the other team has been penalized twenty yards for delaying the game. These are of so frequent occurrence that one ceases to pay at- tention to them. The never ending source of wonder, however, s that so few persons understand the rudiments of the forward pass; that the ball is dead the minute it strikes the ground unless temporarily held and fumbled by some player. Bvery time the ball hits the ground on one of these plays score with 273. The score: Team No. 7. D. Young ........ 76 102 82— 260 Sullivan . .. 88 87 98— 273 D. McCormick ... 86 63 80— 234 J.

Football Results. National league takes up the Giants' to absolve his men of the charge of State Collere, Pa., Nov. 17.—Penn- memorable_game at Ebbets Field in which the New York team was charged with_indifference the chief _witness will be Manager John J. McGraw. The leader of the Giants has deferred his vacation trip in order to appear at the inquiry which will be conducted in New York on Dec. 11. McGraw is prepared to give excellent reasons why he left the bench on Oct. 3, de- clairing that some of the Giants had disobeyed his orders. He will makKe it clear that, in his opinion, his players were not actuated by dishonest mo- tives, but simply refused to play the game up to the required standard. Mc- Graw, according to his closest friends, will offer in evidence a bundle of let- ters and telegrams received by him for a week or 10 days before the final series with the Brooklyns, in which it was pointed out that unless the Glants. won_four -straight games the honesty of the sport would be placed in jeo- pardy. MoGraw will testify that before the game of Oct. 3 he addressed the Giants in the club room at Ebbets field and urged them to play their best. He of- fered to give each member of the team a suit of clothes and an overcoat, to- gether with a cash bonus, if the Giants finished in third position. Tt is said that McGraw will show that 35 900 or more would have been distrib- uted- among his men if they had beat- en out the Boston Braves. In other words, McGraw is ready to convince the directors that he had did his best to make the Giants play winning ball against the Brooklyns. Before he left the Giants’ bench McGraw, it will be shown, first asked the consent of President H. N. Hemp- stead, which was readily securéd. The Giants® T probably will teil the directors some interesting details of the game, which convinced him that his players were indifferent to his wishes. Furthermore, he is expected to show that it was his idca to clear the owners of the New York club of possible charses of complicity, also to prove that he, personally, did not coun- tenance the rasged of his Tt ia MdoGraw’s intention to dis- criminal negligence. his original statement that the team didn’t follow his instructions and that he did not care to be a party to what He will stand on occurred.

In view of the defeat of the Yale eleven by Brown last Saturday, Har- vard now thinks itself reasonably sure of another victory over the blue. How- ever, it should reflect on what might have happened if Brown and not Princeton had faced the crimson Nov. 11. The impression exists in well in- formed football circles that Brown would have whipped Harvard. The game was just such a test in_which a fine runner like Pollard or Legore would have enjoyed a carpival. On the eve of its two big tests Yale certainly is in a bad fix. It expected a lot of trouble from Brown, which many leading scouts rate the best team in the east. However, the Yale board of strategy looked for a.hard earned victory for the blue. Evidently it reckoned without Pollard, who is second only to Billy MODN among speedsters of the gridiron. Evidently the impression of the Yale team gained by Larry Bank- hart, the Col coach, over a week ago ' was founded. He_declared After holding the Brunonians at bay for a half Yale relaxed its vigilance and Pollard did the rest. Some folks who have been watching the Elis closely declare the trouble with Yale is too much beef along the line. They said that the predilection of pound- age has been favored to the detriment of speed. If such be the case there had better be a quick change for the Harvard game. It is said that Coach Jones will make some changes for the Princeton game. Hutchinson, who played center against Harvard last Saturday, will be shifted. second 0, sylvania State college 40, Lafayette 0. Cambridge, Mass., Nov. 17.—Harvard Brown second 0. Although Coach Haughton of Har- vard has been freely cfiticised for his announcement of using substitutes against Brown Saturday, he will go through with the program, Haughton' main idea is to beat Yale. Heé ad- mits Brown may beat his second ' string men but says it is better to | take the chance than to have the best men hurt on the eve of the Yale game. ' DUING- 1.GUESS » WELL M FROM, MISSOURL
