STAGG FIGHTS TO KEEP PRESENT GRIDIRON CODE Maroon Coach Thinks Rules Should Be Given Trial Another Year. Retention of the 1911 style of open game will be demanded by Coach A. A Stagg of the University of Chicago at the coming meeting of the national football rules, committee In New York. i ne Mideway aireotor will make a stand against Important changes in the statutes at the preliminary gathering to be held December 2? in the East amd will stick t'o his forward pass regime when the rules solonjr come together In January, he declares yesterday. While no actual changes in the rules will be made this month, a number of the regular rule makers will hold a sesion after the National Intercollegiate Association meeting, when sugestions for changes will be discussed. Coach Stagg announced that he had received a number of proposals for new rules, rnst of which favor distinct modifications, but that he believed, the 1911 game had proved its value and would not be materially doctored. The abolition of the forward pass, and increasing of the number of downs In ten' yards ,and the decrease in ths distance to be gained, on three downs are the most important suggestions Stagg has received. He decided that the forward pass would not be dropped and said he would have several minor changes regarding this feature to introduce. He thinks the pass has earne a right to another year of service at least and that the next season will bring the- Eastern coaches to the same opinion.

New York, Dec. 11. At the crack of a six-shooter in the hands of ex-Sheriff Tom Foley at one minute after midnight last night fifteen hardly athletes pedaled away from the starting point on tfceir long six-day bicycle Journey for the championship of the world. Madison Square Garden, soon to be demolished, was once more the attraction for thousands who gave the contestants a rousing send-off. How many of the fifteen teams, or thiry individuals', .the pick of the riders of the universe, will endure the ceaseless grind depends in a large measure on the pace set during the first fev days. ' Vv The race gives every promise of being the best ever contested. In the first place Frank L. Kramer, the national champion for the past decade, will start and great Interest Is manifested In this star's work. Kramer is about the fleetest, rider in the contest, while his partner, Jimmy Moran, has the reputation of being one of the greatest pluggefs of all time. i The elimination of the Rutt-Stol'com-binatlon 'is to be regretted, but the management refused to harbor any rider who quit in two races in succes-

The new combine is that of Lorenz and Saldow, who won one six-day race In Berlin. Lorenz is short distance champion of Burope. This year the rider's will share In a percentage of the gate receipts instead of riding solely for a purse of a fixed amount.
