Kaiser's beavy at- tack forced Moore to clinch re- peatedly, What Evans thinks The Forward Pass and the Football Fans | ROM the view- point of the spec tator, the forward pass is unque# tionably the most interesting play in football. For years foot ball gained But little headway | with the general public. The) crowds that went to the games as a rule were made up largely of the undergraduates and the alumni The failure of football to become popular outside the colleges was due to the great difficulty in following the play. In the days of five yards in three downs, mass play was feat- ured. It was next to impossible to determine who waa carrying the ball, Occasionally an end run would be tried and the spectators would enthuse. That proved open play was liked, Then came the forward pass and the dawn of a new era in football. The forward pass with its many vari-|the opponent's 20-yard line, ations, the possibility of running and kicking from the same formations, wave the game a new angle. It ye BY SEABURN BROWN ‘OTHER battle of the century! whose trusty cue has planted him at the head of the three- has challenged Willie Hoppe to a tilt at the three aygle game. Hoppe, king of the 18.2 balk line gare since Gunboat Smith first became a contender | for pugilistic honors, has not chirped a reply as yet. posal, which includes a side bet of 1,000 jumping beans | ($1,000), there will be more j class.crammed into the melee | than any billiard table ever jhas held at one time. Of course, Hoppe, who was | beaten in the final game of the regular schedule of the} balkline play at Chicago last night by Young Jake Schae-) fer, won't be bothering much }about three-cushion billiards with the Schaefer menace} on the horizon. Schaefer! walloped the heretofore Peer- | jless Willie 400 to 26 in six jinnings and they’re tied for the title with five wins and} a loss each.

But, nevertheless, if Hoppe wins, j the proposed threecushion match | with Kieckhefer will still hold a | world of interest. | Kieckhefer specifies a 150-point | mateh, to be played in three blocks of 50 points cach.
