SOE S, TRYING OTHER FELLOW'S GAME Bla MISTAKE OF ATHLETES Wackenschmidt Once Thought H plonship Title—Gotoh, Too, Fighter, and Even Jiu Jitsu Wasn't in His Line—Cleverness in One Line Useless in Other Pursuits. $e e Could Beat Jeffries for Cham- Believed He Could Succeed as a Expert Found Football Tackling Com right. 1016, by The Prom Publishing C The New York fre World), EORGE HACKENSCHMIDT was the greatest wreatler in the world and one of the strongest men from the ring several years Ridarons COLUMN in the world when Jeffries retired ago because there wes no one to fight him. Hackenechmidt, in England, and without any one to wrestle, heard about Jeff's predicament and became Milled with ambition. “Hack” wrote me several letters at that time, tell- ing me bis plans and inviting sug: gestions, I ve him just one, “Hack,” I wrote, “stick to your own game, Jeffries would kill you.” Hackensohinidt didn't exactly Mike that. He came back with a letter full of arguments. “LT admire Jeffries greatly,” he wrote, “but I am quicker than be, stronger, more experienced In phy al contests In wrestling I have never found a man who could give me @ny trouble. If 1 study boxing I shall be a good boxer. Also for the man who gives Jeffries the knockout there will be a great deal of money. I @hal! try it. Wait. You shall see.” Then Hack wrote me that he had fired Gunner Moir, champion of Eng- Jand, to coach and train him, He was fall of enthusiasm. Ho was loarning Bow to box. He worked hard every day. Already he felt that he could Knock out the Gunner at any tithe He had never realized how easy it Was to box. To-day he had hit Moir terrible blows! 11 wus not at all dif- I didn't get any more letters about Doxing from Hack THE THING THAT IMPRESSED HACKENSCHMIDT. I didn’t hear any more about box- {ng from bim until he came to New York and we met. “When are you going to fight Jof- fries?” I asked, half jokingly. A faraway look came into Hacken- echmidt's eye. “Ah, I bave no time to think of box- tng now—not just now,” he said, “I fm too busy wrestling. Hut 1 should Uke to back Gunner Moir against Jof- fries. 1 would put up @ $10,000 side, stake. Do you not think Moir would surely beat him?" “I do not,” I replied promptly. Hack looked astonished. “Ah, but you do not know Moir, He fs a wonderful boxer, I have boxed With him and he has hit me on the fose! Ah, Lam certain that if he hit Mr. Jeffries on the nose with such a bard blow bo would knock Jeffries out. There is no doubt about it.” So now I know why Hack gave up the idea of whipping Jeffries. Moir ‘Was merely @ second rater compared with American heavyweights, but he knew @ little avout hitting—quite enough to make # great impression on any wrestler, As @ rule wrestlers fail miserably | when they try to box. Wrestling gives | them huge, chunky muscles, heir work ts ali pulling and hauling, They drag things toward them, A fighter knock things away from him, A fighter doesn't need heavy muscles, He needs speed, snap and precision— Qualities that have nothing to do with Wrestling. Frank Gotch, heavyweight wrestling champion, wanted to become a fighter, Like Hackenschmidt, he looked with @nvious eyes upon the huge purses offered Jeffries for championship fights, and felt that he was as strong Qnd as intelligent as Jeffri and ite as able to fight. Goteh tried it n old timer, long retired from the | was selected as first victlin, The old timer reached over and deftly @ropped his padded knuckles on Gotch's jaw. When they brought Frank back to earth, an hour or so later, he thought he had been through an earthquake, complicated with a dynamite explosion and a delayed fragment of the Civil War. He didn’t try fighting again. He was satisfied to be known as “Doctor” Rol muscled wrest! come a Jeffries. another . thought Roller lumpy- | he'd be fixed up a fight with a little known but able-|tions, T bodied Scotchman up in the North- ‘west. e Scotchman missed Roller half a dozen times—then hit him once, Roller turned two somersaults and landed on his right ear.

By William Abbott, HE 1916 gridiron slaved with in- dividual brilltancy and unusu- ally fierce competition between the big and little teams, New foot- ball, with ite spectacular open-play features, was more popular than ever. Crowds during the year broke all records, The great stadiums al- most burst their sides trying to hold the thousands who watched the champlonship struggles, and the so- called title games were extended to Colgate, Brown and Tufts, elevens that were considered only good prac- tice for the big fellows a few years ago. The old-time “Big Four" has been enlarged to provide for the “minors” who during the season won the right to be regarded as cham- plonship factors, It was the high- class playing of these smaller colleges that made 1916 so memorable on the Sridiron, Excluding Pittsburgh becauge of its location, no team can justly claim the Eastern title, Brown, with deci ive vittori ver Yale and Harvard, had a grapple hold on the mythical honor, but Colgate, in the final game, spoiled Its claim. Colgate, one of the finest coached teams In the country, would have walked off with the plum but for a setback by Yale. ‘The Army went through the season without a defeat, Capt, Charlie Daly, the West Point coach, publicly an- nounced his team could lick any in the land, and undoubtedly many agree with him, especially the thousands who watched the goldiers sink the Navy In their annual battle, This championship argument, though, has many angles and it all depends wheth- er you look at it from a West Point, Colgate, Brown or Yale viewpoint. PICKING “THE BEST” ELEVEN CAN'T BE DONE THESE DAYS, And to select eleven young men to have excelle: 3 during he seagon makes the job of picking the championship team look ridicu- lously easy. ale, Harvard and Princeton no longer have a monopoly on the best prep school players. They are branching out to colleges that for football reasons were ignored not #o long ago, Now it je the regular thing to see star players bop up at Colgate, Brown, Tufts and Virginia, men like Anderson, Pollard and West, ‘This new condition makes it prac- tically impossible to go over a list of five or six hundred players and select eleven who could have been the best in thelr positions during seven or eight games. [t cannot be done. On the Eastern gridiron just about evenly matched that it is manifestly unfair to reach out and pick one young man and say he was the leader of hii position, something that ts frequently done becwuse the youth ta question may have made some spec- tacular stunt in one particular ame, The big majority of boys on ths gridiron play first to win for their college and then to achieve some | dividual supremacy.
