FAN OUTGAMES THE COPS
By SANDY McNIDMCK
THE game of soccer is coming nleng
bv leaps and bounds In the cltv of
Philadelphia. Ne pun is Intended
though the boys de leap with enthusiasm
and bound with abandon out there en
the field of action
Teams arc cropping out all around us,
wherever there's a vacant let. A British
amc, there was a time when soccer
used te be played hereabouts in the
manufacturing centers where British
labor prevailed. Partly through
fchoels taking it up and partly through
Interest in the game after watching It,
soccer is new taking a mere general
held until it premises te become the
national outdoor winter sport.
You'd think se. at least. If you'd
eat In en the ruckus Saturday out at
Pahill field. The Philadelphia Held
Club battled the Tedd's Drdeck team
of Brooklyn te n 1 te I draw. Lets of
people never saw a soccer game, but
It couldn't be proved by the throng that
1 nheved through the turnstiles out there
it Twenty-ninth nnd Cambria streets.
They charged admission and the
four-hit pasiirerd didn't bother
' anybody. These that had fiftu
i rritM planked it down. These that
didn't, well they just "cased" in.
Modern Heudinl
One bird pawed his way up a ten ten
feet muddy bank, scnled (lie twelve-feet
fence and. frnrn the tlcklNh stance en
the top of it, flung himself at the girders
of the stand inside. He get a toehold
fnmchew and shoved his way panting
out from under the feet of tiic cash cus
tomers te a seat. A cop came along.
"Say," muttered "Heudinl" as he
slid out the same way he came "don't
tliey never give n guy credit for en
durance? That's the sixth time I get
in, and here I go out ngaln."
Later he was seen mingling with the
two thousand or mere fans inside. Evi
dently his scirntli effort was crowned
with success. Yet some people lock their
front doers nt night.
Once inside, there was only one thing,
find that was the soccer game. Ne base
ball crowd Is mere rabid than one of
these soccer attendances. Ne grand
opera tnr is ever murdered mere freely
than a soccer referee that is, by word
of mouth. A soccer referee, one would
gather, cannot afford te 'be sensitive.
The same gees for the players.
But mistakes get the round hoot in
ererv sport, nnd muffsethe rollicking
raspberry. It doesn't mean nnythlng.
On the whole, however, your soccer
fan seems te be n little fairer, if any-
ining, uinn eiuer kiiicin. ne is quicK wmi.

I "D ADICAL chnnges in the method of
cenducting1 big tennis tourneys
J have been indorsed by the Executive
Committee of the United' States Lawn
Tennis Association 'and new only the
O. K. of the national body is needed te
hnvc them embodied in the laws of the
j gnnip. This will be dene nt the nnnunl
I meeting in New Yerk some time in
February.
' Most important of the suggestion
handed in by the sub-committees nnd
passed by the executive body wns the
abolition of the blind draw nnd (he
menns of installing the seeding process.
Anether recommendation wns that
tournament plnycrs be prohibited from
writing signed reports of the matches
in the dally newspapers.
Seeding Flan
The plan suggested for the seeding of
the draw provided that where there
were sixty-four entries, eight pln.ers
should be ranked in order by the com
mittee in chnrge, the rnnking te be
bnsed en the showing of the plnycrs in
the current year. The players thus
ranked shall be nlletcd its follews:
Numbers one and two te be placed In
opposite halves, players three and four
nllotted bv elrnw te lower nortiens of
(-both halves, plnycrs from four te eight
allotted by draw te plnccs in nrieus
quarters nnd eighths of the drnw.
In the case of prominent foreign play
ers, Ne. 1 shall be placed in opposite
half from the Ne. 1 American player,
the plan te continue te lnclude all for
eign ranking entries. Where mere than
sixty-four entries arc received, the seed
ing shall be continued, ene plajcr for
every eight entries.
Will Be Adopted
The plan thus outlined appears te
be n very simple nnd thorough one, It
probably will be adopted by u Inrge ma
jority when the vote is called nt the na
tional bessien.
The committee nlse made recommen
dations te the U. S. Association for the
