THE ATLANTA GEORGIAN, THURSDAY OCTOBER, 11, 1906. LOCAL MAN WINS FIGHT Weather Colder Than Ever For Third Game of Series SPORT NEWS EDITED BY PERCY H. WHITING NEWS OF FOOTBALL SQUADS Odds Now Favor Nationals and Betting Lively—Brown and Altrock May Work Again. Is Chicago, Oct 11.—The White Sox and Cubs were ready today to fight desperately for the third game in thf series for the championship of the world. It is a most important battle— almost ns 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 games won are concern ed. The betting odds have returned tu the former mark, the Cubs “being favor ites again. The odds on Chance and his men are now one to two. They hit the ball so hard yesterday while the Sox were utterly helpless be fore Reulbach. that the friends of tho Cubs believe that they risk little when they put up 2 to 1 on their pets. The adherents of the Sox don't fal ter. They meet the Cub rooters half way, with plenty of money. The theory of Jonea that he had nothing to fear from a slugging team because of his own good defense was badly shattered. The Cubs' defense was superior to that of the Box and their hits were so numerous and clean that the Sox had no chance what- ere r. The weather today Is colder than ever, but the sun Is shining and 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. Tho pitchers today is another prob< lem. The chances are that Altrock wilt again try his hand ac the Cubs, and It would not be surprising Brown was sent In again by Manager Chance. Lundgren \yanted to show' what he could do and Southpaw* pfister was eager to go in. If Chance decides not to put Brown In, it Is likely that Pfis ter will bo given a chance, because the S<»x have npver been able to do much against a left hander. The line-up today: NATIONALS— Hoffman, c. f. Slier hard, 1. f. Schulte, r. f. Chance, lb. Steinfeldt, 3b. Tinker, a. a. Evers, 2b. Kllng, c. Brown, Pflater or Lundgren. p. AMERICANS— Hahn, r. f.

Nationals Take Second Game Played in Frigid Weather KFIIY JABBED Cuba* (Nationals) 7. White Sox (Americans) 1. Chicago, Oct. 11.—Unless tl\e weath- •r moderates euddenly and unexpected ly the world's championship series of •baseball tames will be decided more by luck than skill, (or In the first two games It has been far too chilly (or baseball. The game yesterday' afternoon, which was played at tho 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 o( either team. It was bitterly cold and neither side had much luck In handling the ball. The chilly weather seemed to have the most effect on the Americans and they made man} bobbles, most of which were costly The pitchers found It Impossible to got their arms sufficiently warm so thol they could cut loose with their old- time speed, and White was so badly handicapped by the weather that hs waa forced to drop out of the game after the third Inning and give place 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 wero numerous and so were mlsplays. The result was not In doubt after the second Inning, when three runs were tallied by Charley Murphy's Spuds. They piled up another betort White waa relieved and 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- por-rlvlted fans and the attendancr was under 10,000. Tho fans found It entirely impossible to keep warm and the attempts to keep the blood circulating divided In terest with the actual playing of the game.

JOE ROWE, THE ANNISTON FIGHTER, KNOCKED OUT BY FOY, OF ATLANTA Special to The Georgian. Rome, Ga., Oct. 11.—Jack Foy, of Atlanta, defeated Joe Rowe, of An niston, In the second round of a achduled twenty-round boxing contest at Mobley Park last night. Foy had, youth and speed and forced Rowe nil through the first period. In the first round Rowe knocked Foy against the ropes by a right- hand swing on the Jaw. This only spirited Foy, who came at Rowe with a rush. After boxing two minutes of the second round, Rowe was plain ly "all ln,(" and dropped to his kntes 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 os time-keeper. Sewanee Fills Open Date With Game Against S. W.P.U. New York, Oct. 11.—One of the rawest deals ever handed to a boxer was given lost night to "Emergency’* Kelly, of Dos* ton, In his bout with Frank Paul. Tho fight was held in the 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 the sun ny aide of Italy, paid $2.50 each to wit ness the mill, but did not get a run for their money. At the bell, Paul rushed at Kelly nnd landed what looked ilka a very low punch to tho body. Paul continued to send In low punches, and the spectators howled to him to quit bis foul tactics, hut he persisted, and nfter one minute nnd forty-two seconds of fight ing, landed a punch on Kelly's groin which was plainly foul, and Kelly dropped to tho floor. The referee counted Kelly out while on the floor, nnd it looked for a time aa though a riot would result. Kelly was examined by n doctor, nfter the bout, who stated ho had met with n serious Injury. JOCKEY HURT IN BAD FALL The opening day of racing at' Plod- mnnt park proved entertaining and a large crowd was out In the afternoon to see the ponies run. The rneee were all well contested, the track was In good condition and everything wdnt off smoothly, with the exception of a bad fall In the first race. Louie C„ one of the starters, fell nnd threw hla Jock ey, Walnrlght. Wnlnrlght waa rolled on and badly Injured. As usual, there waa n goodly amount of hand hooking and the layers of doda were busy enough to Justify the belief that a now sucker Is born every minute and sometimes as ninny aa two to the minute. i Results: FIRST RACE—Five furlongs: Tlnio. thy Wen, 94 (Stcelo), first; Ann Hill, 101 (Otis), second; Vic Ziegler, 112 (C.

Just Some Football Dope Mostly About New Rules The big football tennis of the Enat seem ed to have a hard time scoring umler the new rules at first, but time* have changed. Look at Wednesday's scores. When the players get the new rules into their hends, nnd get ao they enn handle forward passes nnd get down under the high kicks, It ought not to tie such a hard matter to run up scores. An ex-Yale captain aaya that the new football rules are "murderous." Well, they may be that, but, anyway, they make the game better worth watching. And the "homicidal" feature* have not cropped out In the South, aa yet. Football playera 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. Penniylvanla's football squad ,was crip pled recently by the necessity of allow ing Takakt, the ouly Japanese player In America, to drop off the team. The stolid little Jap woo suffering with heart trou ble. The knockers are having a lovely time with the 1906 football rule*. The believ er* In the old time knock-nhoiit *lap-ntlck same can't *ee anything Iu a contest which does not border continually on a knock down nnd drag-out ” ““ C resent article la pri ut retired pugilists i The fact that the new rule* declare that a man Is down when (1) he ealta "down;" (2) when he touches the ground with any part of his body except his hand* or feet; 43) when he goes out of bounds, and (4) when he I* held so that his progress is stopped, tins prevented much of the sense less "piling up" n’bleh has been the dis grace of So many games In years past. It used to lie that when a raun wan tackled three or four of his opponents would grab him. Two of them would get ou hla back nnd stick their knees In. «flu*n an other player would get h g4iod ran, dive f4>rw*rd nnd hit the umn with the ball In the side of hi* neck. Then the other side would rush eight or ten men forward and they would pllo on top of the mass of players. If any men on either team were not in tho mess by then, they would and Jump, feet foremost. Into the squirm* Ing mass of players. When the pllo un curled, which took a minute or two, a man or two would usually be laid out and time would be taken out while everybody took a little rest. It was "fine" for the spectators, nfid even "bettor” for the play ers—especially those at tho bottom of the pile. Under the new rules, when a mau Is stopped the ball la down, and there la no need for piling up. And there Is also a rule which forbids "piling." It aaya: “There shall be no piling up on the play er after the referee baa declared the ball dead." The.penalty M the loss of 15 yards, and there is a strong hope that referees, umpires and linesmen will see that this role la observed or the penalty Inflicted. One of the most senseless and unpleasant features of the- old football was the un necessary roughness lujected Into this "pil ing up" baslnoss. Here is what George Sands, The Boston American's ’football expert, says about the new game: 'It Is now safe to say that the new foot ball roles are a success. They have made the game 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 n good den! of the ball. Ten thousand attended the game at Harvard on 8nturday, and all came sway with the Idea that they bad witnessed the most brilliant football con test on record. If such a pleasing gome can lie played ao early In the season by a big team, think of the podxlblllties of the new rules when the conches have discov ered oil they can do under them." Here Is wffnt Julian Hawthorne, the fa mous author, writes about football practice at Yale umler the new rules:. •The average of the men on the teams, however, seemed to me comparatively light. There were n few heavyweights—massive monster*, built on the old lines, but not many. Good legs, good wind, quickness, were more In evidence than heretofore.
