TIRRIN’' , the DOPE A Bv VEDDER GARD

A heard here and there is the __ one which says Eddie Collins may not be back with the White Sox next year. Nobody has had nerve enough to predict that Joe McCarthy wouldn't lead the Cubs again. Joe won himself a home for another year at least. The veterans, Ty Cobb and. Tris Speaker, have been “hired and fired" several times already by the fickle fails. At the present time they are still on the job, which is more than can be said of Sisler of the Browns, Fletcher of the Phillies, Fold of the lied Sox and McKechnie of Ihe Pirates. There are hints that all is not well at St. Louis, where Hornsby led his club to a world championship, but it is hardly possible-that there will be a change there. That WOULD be a world record. One other club is on the doubtful list as regards a manager. Wilbert Robinson may not be with the Robins in such capacity next season. Tile mania for knocking off managers extends to the Atneri-. can Association. Spencer Abbott f -Aim’l. be back—that’s sure. Muehlebaeh of Kansas handed out that news last week. The hot stove league is at intense heat these days. Four big league managers already liav*>' been scorched. And the fans, thumbs down, are yelling for more casualties.

A trip is planned to Paris, where Fox is scheduled to scale the Eiffel Tower. * * rrrVNRY GARDEN, director of tlie Chicago Grand Opera I Company, Is back from Paris as blase as ever. She says she would like to marry Gene Tunney—bold words for an old lady. Mary alSo remarks she has anew opera, which will make Salome look like a nursery rhyme.

The moralists will now have their chance to preach sermons on the candle at both ends, IHI so on and so forth. It is true that Harry Greb did everything backward. His real name was Berg. He even turned (hut around and made it Greh. lie trained in the cabarets and his road work was done on the most famous street of them all under the glaring lights of Broadway. He fought Two or three times a week on many barnstorming trips when he was champion. He paid little attention to rules of any kind Hfirry was the incarnation. of speed in the ring and he carried it to outside activities. Speed, speed, speed. It was.Greb's mania and finally his undoing. Death was the only thing that could stop Harry's headlong, dash along life's way. But underneath it all was a lion's heart. One must not he too harsh with this great lighter. Greb defeated Gene Tunney. present world’s heavyweight champion, .lack Dempsey, whom lie outfought in a private match, Tommy Gibbons, Johnny Wilson and a host of other champions. Some 400 fights was Greb’p record In thirteen years of battling. He seldom weighed over 10ft. yet he defeated many of the big men of the ring. A list of his victims fighter. Harry liked to swarm all over the big boys, hitting them from all angles. He has appeared in Indianapolis. Harry was one of those wild, reckless souls. He link paid the full price at the age of 32 for his recklessness. We prefer to remember Greb, the lion-hearted, master boxer; not Greb, the bad boy. \

More than 40,000 football fans were on hand for the opening kick off and thousands more sought admission.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

NEW SAFETY RULE IS DISCUSSED BY EXPERT

By ERNIE SEVERS All-America Full Back, 1925 SHE "take-a chance” style of play is far more interesting in football than "safety-first" methods. That is reason why.l am glad the new rule relative to the forward pass will not. In my opinion, curb that style of play. It would haVe been a mistake. I think, had the worked out some proviision that would have Curtailed the use of football's most thrilling play.

On the other hand, I feel that-the rule which now governs the making of a safety at distinct improvement over the Hid provision. The reason: It will do away with some of the ' safety-first” methods that marred several big games last year. I have in mind the “gift safety,” a play often resorted to last year as a tjme killer and. incidentally, to keep the Opposition from getting the ball, thereby prei venting it from starting an offensive. Jhe intentional pass is one of the most dishked playa in busehall. It is jeered every time it is put on. The gift safety in fqotball has been in as much disfavof as the intentional pass in baseball. However,i feel that the new wording of the rule relative to a safety has removed the value of such a play us a time-killer. Well do i recall a game of last fail between tw s o leading teams in the West. Going into the final quarter one of the teams enjoyed 3 7-0 lea/I. ' The team that was

N EVERS

trailing then started an offensive that carried the bull something like 89 yards, only to lost- it on a fumble eleven out in front, realizing* It was being outplayed and there was a chance the opposition might go over for a touchdown at any time, resorted to the gift safety to offset the team s last ditch stand. Getting possession of the ball the team in the lead made (fare! intentional safeties. Under th 4 iHltes of last year, after the making of a safety, the team so ref lined possession of the ball and put It in play from the 29-yard fine. ‘ • In this manner the team that was ahead retained possession of the bail and used up the few minutes remaining ttVplay. Mince the three safeties meant only six points, the game was 7-6. No doubt there are some who will ca‘l this smart football. Most football fans will, lam sure, take the opposite view It hasn’t a virtue to commend it with the exception of the protection it offers the lead gained by one of the teams. The new rule governing Un- safety has taken all the punch out of the play. U may be called upon once es a safety first method, hut there its value ends, temporarily at least. , Instead of giving the team that makes the safety the right to retain possession of the ball, It calls for the ball to he put In play by a kick from the 20-yard line of the team that has scored. This change I regard as Ijy far the most important one made by the rules committee. It is certain to help the game by retaining this element of uncertainty on which football thrives.

GREB’S DEATH REMOVES COLORFUL RING FIGURE Crafty Harry, Former Cham p in Two Classes, Succumbs to Complications of Accident and Operation.

Hu l nitrd Prrtm ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Oct. 23.
