Cnpt. Andy Cilll of Indiana Is prob ably the best In the west, bis work not only bring of tho long distance varie ty, but extremely accurate. Minnesota has a man of great ability In Capron, who Is said to be better than Johnny McGovcrn In the drop kicking line and far bis superior In punta. Illinois bns Seller, who won three games from his team mates last yeur merely through his ability to kick goals and who was hailed as one of the stars of the west on this nccount. although his work In other depart ments of the game was no better than ordinary. Chicago bns not a man of ability and Coach Stagg has been working night and day trying to find a player who will be able to cope with the stars of his three great western adversaries. With the uncertainties of ground gaining In the open game, punting has Increased tremenduously In Import ince. Forwnrd passes are at best un reliable ground gainers, while It Is GIRL RIVAL OF MATHEWSON ! Young New Jersey Woman Allows Op ponents but Three Hits, Making Three Doctors Amputate Air, Though neither n Matty nor a Mar qunrd, Carrie Kllbourne, a schoolgirl of New Itrunswlrk, N. .1., put 'em over the plate In such skillful fashion that the most exacting fans were satisfied. The young woman was pitching for the team of the Herman hospital of Itrook lyn against the team Trom Williams burg hospital. If she had hnd better support herslde might have won. The score was R to 7 against her team. The game took place at Saratoga field. Miss Kllbourne was wild at first and passed several men ; hut she soon steadied. The Williamsburg doctors, Internes and ambulance men suffered from annnmla of the batting average. They showed they could handle a bandage or an Instrument with more effect than they did a baseball bat. Miss Kllbourne made five doctors am putate the air In the innings sho pitched and allowed only three hits. Her nerve was shown best In the sev enth Inning. She pasred two men and then a hit filled ti e bases. Hut she struck out the next man and the fol lowing two were ensy. At bat she was a good waiter and twice got to first on four wide ones. The tall end of the Reason was more of a Joke this year than usual. flat Nelson wants one more chance They always want "one more " Now Governor Dlx Is shouting for the repeal of the new boxing law. It Is now tho season for a resump tion of the winter baseball yarns. Kicking probably will be more ef fective In football than In baseball. Reports from Michigan Indicate that tbe team will be better than ever this year. Italy ought to hire Gotch to threat en tbe terrible ones with the toe bold. Apparently Yale Is not going to rely upon one game for a reputation this season. Yale probably will remember how much her gorging last year amounted to, however. 13111 Bass of Richmond, Va., and nat urally one of tbe old families, bns be come a "hope." In baseball as well as In everything else everything depends upon whose ox Is being gored. According to reports, Northwestern lacks ginger In Its football, while the Maroons have a Paine. Evidently Hughey Jennings Is tired of managing a team composed princi pally of Individual stars. After a prize fighter has gone by the thing to do is to learn how to lose gracefully and naturally.

In Venezuela our national sport has taken flm root and the natives art playlug It almost as well as we are.

The days when fa heavy or strong team could sweep Irresistibly down the Bold toward an opponent's goal have passed, for even the weakest eleven Is able to check a heavier team if Its defense Is work ed out properly. With the uncertain ties of ground gaining under the new rules It has become almost habitual for a team to kick on its third down In case It has more than a yard or two to gain. There Is nothing more discouraging than for a team to lose the gain of ten minutes of fierce play simply through the ability of a player of the opposition to send the oval twisting and hurting high In the air back to the place from which the march be gnn. A fair team mny make such a march twice, a good one twice, but It takes the exceptionally well coached and strong hearted eleven to try time after time, realizing that the slightest slip on the part of their offense leaves an op-nlng lor the opposing team to put tne ball back to the starting line. YALE'S WEAKNESS ON PASSES Coaches Think Eleven Needs More Drilling on That Play Open Style to Get Trial. The work of the Yule football squad thus far has convinced the coachers that the team's weak point this year Is likely to lie In a failure to make the most of the open style of play. The team has failed lamentably in oft-repeated attempts to gain ground by the use of (he forward pass. In the Wesleyan game, the visitors had no trouble each time In Intercept ing the attempted pass and breaking Coach Jack Field. up the play In that game Yale also tried to use the on-slde kick without success. While tho natural thing for Yalo to do might be to abandon the attempt at an open game, which never has proved of great value hero, the coaches instead have determined to go ahead and try to develop the now football to the fullest extent. ' UMPIRES TAKE OUT POLICIES Venezuelan Arbiters Guard Against AH Accidents, Says Armando Mar sans, Cincinnati Outfielder. in Venezuela, according to Armando Mnrsniis. tho Cincinnati outfielder. who has relatives there, the people are Just as wild over basenall as In Amer ica or Cuba. The umpires down there, says Armando, are crafty. Petore ev ery game they take out accident in surance policies. The most violent rooters in Venezuela are the president and treasurer of tho local Insurance companies and they take no chances. They guard and protect the umpires, defending them against the crowds and, at the same time, preventing any sudjlcn demand upon their own swas urtcs.

Outfielder Davey Jones and Catcher Charlie Schmidt, veterans of the De troit baseball club, will not be with the Tigers next season, as waivers have been obtained on both, and they will probably be seen In the minor leagues In 1912. Jones and Schmidt Joined the Tigers In 1905, and up to this year both of the men have play ed first-class baseball. This has been a disastrous season for Jones, and Schmidt has been practically useless to the team all season, having only caught four full games. 3 53 MISTAKEN DIAGNOSIS-DOCTORS GUESS WRONG AGAIN.

Preparatory School Men Have Oppor tunity to Show Grit Under Ad verse Circumstances First Year Tells Tale. Early season work In football Is coming to be regarded is more and more Important by middle western football coaches since tbe rule of tbe conference was established prohibit ing mentors from teaching their charges before Sept 20. In tbe years before the stringent regulations of the conference, when It was possible to start training Id tbe middle of tbe summer, it was not until almost October 1 that practice really began, but since the time has been set for September 20 coaches, captains and vetersns have Impressed upon candidates for gridiron honors tbe absolute necessity of appearing on the field the first day and staying there throughout the season If they expert to be picked as "regulars." Only half-hearted efforts were made to coach tbe veterans before October under the old regime, the early work being principally a tryout for Inexpe rienced material Now there Is not time for try-outs and the greater part of the material which reports for prac tice at the big western schools is thor oughly seasoned and those men who lack experience must be content to work on the "scrub" until such time as tbey may show tbey have gained the required knowledge of the game The freshman and scrub teams are the preparatory schools for varsity foot ball education and a man who has not gone through a course of sprouts on one of those two elevens has as little chance of "making" the varsity as has a man getting Into college without a preparatory school training There are some exceptional men who may make good with the school elevens without this preparatory work, but these are tbe exceptions that prove the rule. More than one high school or academy star has gone to college and refrained from playing on the freshman team, thinking tbe grind of dally scrimmages without the incentive of a game not worth the candle These men have relied much upon the reputations they have estab lished as preparatory school player and find, too late, that college foot ball and preparatory school football are as different as professional and amateur baseball. . The system of cochlng Is entirely different and the man who has bad his name shouted by thousands of ad mlrers In Keokuk, Iowa, or Isphemlng, Mich., finds It rather annoying to be booted around and "bawled out" by men whom he regards as having only a tithe of bis own ability. Early season work for the most part Is devoted to learning rudimen tary formations Every school that has had a coach for more than a year or two has some sort of "system" of plays and formations and this ground work Is drilled Into the men In tbe first work. At the end of this time they are expected to have the general plan of the conches well In mind and are considered capable of putting Into execution tbelr slightest command Formerly there was a season of con dltlonlng when the men. returning from their summer vacations, often fat, were trained down to something approaching fit physical condition. Now the man who reports for prac tice In anything but condition has lit tle chance of receiving attention from the tutors. The coaches wisely eclde that a man who does not care enough about the game to fit himself for the early work Is persona non grata on the gridiron and the only way In which he may re-establish him self In their estimation la by work ing alone, getting the fat off and In cidentally keeping pace with his more foreslghted brothers who have not 'his handicap to overcome.
