Nelson “Kids” Victor. By Ed W. Smith. * C A 1I Farland, world’s greatest hox- y er, lost his head hut won a fight Inst night. Opposed to .lark Brit- ton, of Chicago, the idol of the stock - yards displayed so much fooling of a disagreeable nature that he couldn’t box a lick, and when it came to fTghtlng Britton, he lost much of the I sterling sparkling qualities that brings him that title of “world’s | greatest boxer.’’ The battle went the full ten rounds, and at the finish the general verdict, was that McFarland had had a good shade the better of It. in addition to being pitted against one of the best fighters in the busi ness in the legitimate 135-pound class, Packey was badgered and heckled by one Battling Nelson, once world's champion of the division and avowedly Packey's lifelong bitter enemy. Nelson sat near McFarland's comer, and sent messages over to Britton's comer, even attempting openly to have Referee Stout act as a messenger boy for him. Stout wouldn't, bul the incident obviously annoyed Packev, who leaned out of* the roy©6''between the fifth and sixth rounds and yelled at Nelson: “It’s a good thing for you I haven’t got you in hero to-night. I’d knock your head off.’’ Nelson, knowing he had the Mc Farland goat meandering, merely grinned and tossed some notes across the ring The papers were promptly kicked out, but Packey was as wild as a loon after that, and didn’t re cover Ids bearings for a full round. The contest was a keen disappoint ment. especially to Packer’s friends, because he didn’t do the impossible knock Britton out. He failed in this just as every other good fighter has, not so much because he lost his head in anger, but because he can not beat Britton any more decisively than he did Iasi night—at least in ten rounds. Packey has flashed his speed be fore Chicago crowds against m lot of mediocre opponents lie beat them without trouble. Assembled in the ring last night with one of the bes* men in the business, the erowd of Packer's friends though he should treat Britton In much the same man ner. When he didn’t do It, there was hissing and booing, and the crowd veiled in disapproval. It was hardly just, because McFarland did his ab solute best. The first three rounds were In Britton's favor, the next two were fairly even, but from the sixth round on It w as McFarland's "bat tie In a big walk. In the ninth and tenth rounds Brittons gloves were heavy as lead, and lie couldn’t hold them higher than his waist with any success. Packey. too. was dug tired, but he carried all the battling to the North Shier, and was entitled to the shade. 3 0ST G-tv'S A vjvfPfc.

And there are many others who view the situation at Cincinnati in the same light Bv Coach Heisman. 1 T TIIENEVER present-day foot- YY ball players stop for a mo ment to contemplate the fact that some years ago the. offen sive team had only five yards to gain to make first down, they invariably fall to wondering how the defensive I team ever held their opponents for downsall. Admitting, as they do. that the defense of to-day could not stop a team for that required gain. I the inquiry is pertinent as to wheth- | er modern defense has not deterior- I a ted. Well, that depends. First of all. It depends upon what you are con sidering. If by stopping a team you merely mean stopping its running or rushing attack, of course there can be little doubt that the defense r.f to-day is not near as sturdy aa it used io be in the days when whole afternoons were put In by the coaches teaching the players how to get un der the line and stop the dreaded “guards back" or the famous “tackle ovcr“ ramming, smashing, grinding plays of that period. But, then, it must be borne in mind that no forward passes were played in that day, and, as a result, r|i*> secondary defense found It not only safe, but eminently proper, to come right up behind the line and play on the very haunches of the tackles. If our secondary defense of to-day were permitted to do this, no doubt they could also do better n the matter of stopping a rushing attack Still, it must be admitted that sec ondary defensive players of to-day are not in a class with those of a dec ade ago, when It comes to getting into the mix-up and doing their full share toward stopping a strong buck through the line: and that no matter where they might be permitted to station themselves. Nowadays they are mostly coached how to stop for ward passes, not bucks; and what tackling they do Is mainly on the opposing end runners. Hence they have not had the coaching on stop ping the stuff through the line that used to be expended on these sec ondary men. , On the other hand, it can he point ed out with equal truth that the sec ondary defensive players of that day would have made an even greater mess of the Job of trying to stop for ward passes had they been called upon to do It without several yeara of wo!Idas *p to it. in short, t.ha defense of ten years ago w r as strong er for stopping the offense of that pe’iod than would be the defense ■•? ! to-day, while the converse is true re- |Raiding defense under present rules when contrasted with what the de fensive players of bygone days could do with the game of to-day. • • * VU HAT 1s going to be the limit to the throngs that will patronise the football of the future? That would be difficult to say. Had you noticed that th# attendance grows greater every year? The Tale-Harvard game drew 42.- 000 this \ear The Army-Navy game drew 47.000, None of the big game* in the West drew less than 25,000. In the Southern cities the attend ance has been distinctly larger than in any previous seasons. Thirty years ago the college that built a stadium seating 30,000, .•« does Penn’s in Philadelphia, would have been considered non compos mentis. But that 30,000 capacity is no longer sufficient for the Army- Navv game, so they took their game to tiie field with the largest stands In the country, and then it wasn't nearly large enough. Harvard's sta dium was built to hold 40.000, and still it didn't hold more than half of those w ho clamored for admission. Now comes Yale with her 60,000 ca pacity stadium well under way. And will it be filled with spectators when completed'.' At the big games it cer tainly will, and running over. And isn't that remarkable when you stop to think that New Haven is far from being a large city? In other words, they will not depend very much on the resident population to fill up the big saucer. The people will pour in from hundreds of mlVs in every direction. Th** ancient Coliseum at Rome he'd but 70.000 spectators, and while it was comfortably filled at all bargain matinees, it must be remembered that the attractions were even more numerous than in the football coli seum of to-day. and that the stage settings wore particularly and oe- Millar!.' ro il stic rather more so than in our day. In another ten years the qnerv M each college will be where will they find a plot of land large enough on which to build the football coliseum that will be required in that day. • * I TAD you noticed how the use of 1 * shift formations is spreading like wild fire over the cow try? The quick Jump-shift very similar to the Min nesota shift that was Introduced ;*t New Haven by Shevlin in 1910, just prior to the Yale-Princeton game — was first shown in the South by Tech, alsr. in 1910? But Tech never learned it from Yale, or from Minnesota either. They took it up weeks before Yale ever heard of it. right after the, Alabama game in October. and worked not only the hacks Into the Jump, but the line as well And that very year yet they used It to get a high-grade punt formation a pur pose for which it was not employed by any team that year, nor the next either What surprised me this year was nqt to see a good many college teams playing a Jump-shift, but a goodly number of prep teams as well. The Jump-shifts of Tech High, of Bovs’ High, of Riverside and of O. M. C. were all different from each other, and all had points of merit. Other prep teams doubtless used such as well, but these happened to he all the prep teams I saw frem this State this fall. T did see a game between two Tennessee prep teams, however, .nit neither of these used jump-shifts. I was particularly Impressed with the excellence of the work done by the Tech High team in this depart ment of play. Their shifting was particularly fast, clean^and uniform. It did not violate tho rules in any way, and It was done quite as well as the best college teams could do U. This means that in a year or so the prep players who come to college will already have been thoroughly Initiated into the mysteries of quick shifts, which will make the worl of the col lege coaches easier On the other hand, this matter of Jump-shifting is leading to so many freak formations in the backfleld ind so many maneuvers calculated to take advantage of the wording of the rules in new and unexpected ways that It would not surprls me if the rules committee did no. take a hand In the r.ime and do some legislating regard ing th«se quick shifts In a year or two. They make things too hard Tor the officials, for they can’t waten everything In a game as the game-a are now played.

Farnsworth, Sporting Editor The Atlanta Georgian: Friend Bill—Your letter received a few days ago, and was glad to hear that the hoys in dear old Atlanta are feeling fine. Have been taking pret ty good care of myself, and expect to report In great shape in the spring and help the Craqkers cop another pennant. I went to my home in Bladon Springs for a ten-day visit after the close of the ball season, and from there came here to accept a position in the commissary of the Cochran Lumber Company. The mill, how ever, burned down on the night of October 17. throwing; tfie greater part of the employees out of work. I had a great time while at work, dealing with the people of the town. They all wanted to know about the Crack ers’ grandstand finish, and kept me busy reviewing the dope. I am now' spending much time fish ing and hunting. I landed a six- pound black bass the other day. be sides others of smaller size. Gee. but It’s dandy sport, especially If you happen to be lucky. Near here there is a river swamp abounding in game of all descrip tions, w’here many ducks, both Mal lards and Teal, as w r ell as numbers of squirrels, have fallen victims of my dogs and gun. I was a member of a camp hunt held In this swamp Thanksgiving week, and killed eleven ducks and 53 squirrels. Well, Bill, have nothing else to write about, so will close with re gards to all my friends in Atlanta. Your friend, TOMMY LONG AT JUAREZ.
