TIIE ATLANTA GEORGIAN, THURSDAY OCTOBER, 11, 1906. j PffiWSOFFOOTRALL SQUaBs Weather Colder Than Ever For Third Game of Series Odds Now Favor Nationals and Betting Lively—Brown and Altrock May Work Again. Is Chicago, Oct. 11—The White So* and Cuba were ready today to fight deaperately for the third game In the aeries for the championship of the world. It Is a most Important battle— almost as Important as was the first. The teams are glowering at each other on even terms once more, the Cubs having won the second game by a top-heavy score. That placed them on an equal foot ing. as far as gamea won are concern ed. The betting odds have returned to the former mark, the Cubs being favor ites again. The odds on Chance and Ills men are now one to two. fore Reulbach, that the Men Cubs believe that they risk little when they put up 3 to 1 on their pets. The adherents of the 8ox don't fal ter. They meet the Cub rooters half way, with plenty of money. The theory of Jones that he had nothing to fear from a slugging team because of his own good defense wav .badly shattered. The Cubs’ defense S is superior to that of the Box and elr hits were so numerous and clean that the Sox had no chance what ever. The weather today Is colder than ever, but the sun Is shining nnd It is hoped that It will warm up by the time the game starts. There was a heavy frost last night and a quarter of an inch of Ice formed In standing water. The pitchers today Is another prob lem. The chances are that Altrock will again try his hand at the Cubs, and It would not be surprising It Brown was sent In again by Manager Chance. I.undgren wanted to show what he could do and Bouthpaw raster was eager to go in. If Chance decides not to put Brown In, It Is likely that ras ter will be given a chance, because the Box have never been able to do much against a left hander.

Nationals Take Second Game Played in Frigid Weather KELLY JABBED Cubs (Nationals) 7, White 8ox (Amtricans) .. ... ..1. Chicago, Oct. 11.—Unless the weath- er moderates suddenly and unexpected ly the world's championship series of baseball games will be decided more by luck than skill, for in the first two games It has been far too chilly for baseball. The game yesterday afternoon, which was played at the American League park, was won by the National League team by a score of 7 to 1. Tho weath er played more of a part, however, than the skill of either team. It wua bitterly cold and neither side hod much luck In handling the ball. The chillv weather seemed to have the most effect on the Americans and they made many bobbles, most of which were costly. The pitchers found It Impossible to get their arms sufficiently warm so that they could cut looso with their old- time speed, and White was so badly handicapped by the weather that he was forced to drop out of the game after the third Inning and give pipes to Owen, who did little better. Passed balls were not among the bad features of the game, as they were In the opener, but bases on balls were numerous and so were mlsplays. The result waa not In doubt after the second Inning, when three runs were tallied by Charley Murphy’s Spuds. They piled up another before White waa relieved nnd then let down for a couple of Innings. In the sixth they located Owen for one run and In the eighth they made two more. The Americans tallied their only run In the fifth. Owing to the wretched weather the crowd was made up of only the cop- per-rlvlted fans and the attendance waB under 10,000. The funs found It entirely Impossible lo keep warm and fhe attempts to keep the blood circulating divided In terest with the actual playing of the game. The score follows: AH. R. H. PO. A.

JOE ROWE, THE ANNISTON FIGHTER, KNOCKED OUT BY FOY, OF ATLANTA Spdclal to The Georgian. Roma, Oa, Oct. 11.—Jack Foy, of Atlanta, defeated Jot Rowe, of An niston, In tha second round of a echduled twenty-round boxing contest at Mobley Park last night. Foy had. youth and speed and forced Rowe all through the first period. In the first round Rowe knocked Foy against the ropes by a right- hand awing on the Jaw. Thin only spirited Foy, who came at Roive with a rush. After boxing two minutes of the second round, Rowe won plain ly “all ln.<" and dropped to his knees In his own corner. Referee Peter Maher Immediately stopped the bout and gave the de cision to Foy. Neither contestant received a damaging blow. Lieutenant Coots act ed as time-keeper. Sewanee Fills Open Date With Game Against S. W.P.U. New York, Ort. 11.—One of the rawest deals ever handed to u boxer was given Inst night to "Emergency” Kelly, of Boa- ton, In his bout with Frank J'atil. The fight was held lb tho heart of the Tender loin, and was to go twenty rounds at catch-weights. About 'two hundred and fifty dyed-ln-the wool "sports," most of them from tho sun ny side of Italy* paid 12.50 onch to wit ness the mill, but did not get n run for their money. At the bell, Paul rushed at Kelly nnd landed what looked like a very'low punch to*the body. Paul continued to send In low punches, and tho spectators howled to him to quit hts foul tactics, but ho persisted, and nftor one minute nnd forty-two seconds of fight* tug, landed a punch on Kelly’s groin which was plainly foul, and Kelly dropped to the floor. The referee counted Kelly out while on the floor, nnd It looked for n time ns though n riot would result. Kelly wns examined by a doctor after the bout, who stated he had met with n scrims Injury. JOCKEY HURT IN BAD FALL mont park proved entertaining nnd a large crowd wan out In the afternoon to nee the ponies run.

Just Some Football Dope Mostly About New Rules The big football ten ms of the East seem ed to have a hard time scoring under the new rnlea nt first, hut times have changed. Look at Wednesday’s scores. When the plnyera get the new rules Into their heads, nnd get so they cna handle forward passes nnd get down under the high kicks, It ought not to be such a hard matter to run up scores. , An ex-Yale captain says that the new football rules are "murderous." Well, they mny be that, but, anyway, they make the game better worth watching. And the "homicidal" features havo not cropped out In tho South, as yet. Football players who have studied the new rules have found out one thing—that they learned more about them In ten min utes of play than they did In a month of reading. Pennsylvania’s football squad was crip pled recently by tho necessity of allow ing Tnkskl, the only Japanese player In America, to drop off the team. The atolld little Jap was suffering with heart trou ble. The knockers are having a lovely time with the 1906 football rules. The believ ers In the old time knock-nbont slap-atlck game can't see anything In a coutest which does not s border continually _on a knock ^ut~reUre«r'puKlUsts i The fact that the new rules declare thnt a man la down when (1) he calls "down;" (2) when he touchea the ground with any part of his body except his hands or feet; (3) when he goes ont of bounds, snd (4) when be Is held so that his progrett Is stopped, has prevented much of the sense less "piling up" which has been tho dls* grsco of so many games In years post. It used to be that when s man was tackled i would grab get on bis In. Then an* they would pile on top of the mass of plnyers. If any men on either team were not In the mess by then, they would run nnd Jump, feet foremost, Into the Squirm ing mass of players. When the pile un curled, which took s ruinate or two, a man or two would usnally 1k» laid out and time woqld be taken out while everybody took a lltflo rest. It wns "fine" for the spectators, nnd oven "better", for the play ers—especially those at the bottom of tho pile. Under the new rules, when s men Is stopped the bill Is dowu, and there Is no need for piling np. And there Is also a rule which forbids "piling." It says: "There shall be no piling up on the play er after the referee has declared the ball dead." The penalty Is the loss of 15 yards, and there Is a strong hope that referees, umpires snd linesmen will see that this rule Is observed or the penalty Inflicted. One of the most senseless and unpleasant features of the old football waa the un necessary roughness Injected Into this "pil ing up" buvtness. Here Is what Georgs Rands, The Boston American’s football expert, says about the new game: "It Is now safe to say that the new foht- hall rules are a success. They have made the gamo more open, therefore, more spec tacular. and people who pay $3 and $5 for a ticket to see the great games will have the novel pleasure of actually seeing a good deni of the ball. Ten thousand attended the game at Harvard on Saturday, and all came away with the idea that they had witnessed the most brilliant football con test on record. If such a pleasing gsmo can be played so early In the season by a big team, think of the possibilities of the new rules when the coaches have discov ered all they can do under them." Here is what Julian Hawthorne, the fa mous nuthor, writes about football practice at Yale under the new rules: "The average of the men on the teams, however, seemed to me comparatively light. There were a few heavywelghta-masslve monsters, built on the old lines, but not many. Good legs, good wind, quickness, were more In evidence than heretofore. The men are more often than formerly • spread ln°h7cold wtatherf >ty poor ** me pl *^ TE-•rioniance *t the second world, championship lorlre played in the second city of the Amerl- con continent was only a little In rye r than u Fourth of July attendance at Atlanta! * »•<-• xamfr—only two hits off his delivery.

McCarey believes that a commission of local sports can be gotten together to in- terpret the Marquis of Qneen*berry rules In regard to the clean break question fn * way that will be satisfactory to both Burnt nnd O’Brien. Abe Attell and Harry Baker, who nrt to meet before the ^Pacific Athletic < hi!) October 90, for the featherweight champion- ship of the world, began training yester day. Attell will train at Lucky Baldwin's ranch, at Arcadia, and Baker has arranged to do his work at the East 8!dc Athletic Club’s gymnasium. The Baldwin Racing Association wns for- maily launched at Arcadia today, and, ac cording to plans, there will be nu up-to- date race track at Arcadia within the next ten months. Tho compauy has Incorporated with a capital of $500,000, most of which has been subscribed, and work will begl« at once building a regulation l-mlle track. A steel grnnd-stsnd, tho necessary atuMrt, and s club house will be rushed to cum- pletlou.

SUCCESSFUL SEASON • ENDS FOR TRION TEAM ont over tha Held; one might any that a different spirit la at work. One may hope that the elephant and the rhinoceros will gradually become rare. But. for the arrival of the Ideal, we shall have to exerrlae a little patience. " -He's down! Don't pile on top of him! Let him up!' These extraordinary, and, Indent, hlth erto unprecedented words were uttered on (lie Yale football ground by the captain of the team; and they, perhapa, represent the greatest Innovation In onr Amerienn ver alon ot the famous game that I witnessed during my sojourn In New Haven last week." Special to The Georgian. Sewanee, Tenn., Oct. II.—The varsity at Sewanee Is faat rounding ln:o shape and the last two days have been ones of great satisfaction to Coach Quill, because of the rapid development of the team aa a whole. The men are catching on to the new style and the play* to hard at first to learn are being executed smoothly and without hitches. The team was sorry to nee Eph Kir by Smith, tack!* on Sewanee *08. leave for Mexico. It was reported that he might possibly stay and finish hla col lege course. His family, however. thought it best for him to accept at once tho position offered him. The game with Kentucky State, as predicted, was cancelled. Two gamea in three days was too much for that light team. A game with 8. W. P. U. <Southwest - ern ’ Presbyterian Union) has been scheduled to All the open date Friday, October 12. This will be the only game before the team goes up against Tech, in Atlanta, October 20.
