FOOTBALL RULES GET

APPROVAL

New York, D&c. 29. College football as it is played at present will

with a few variations, constitute the

diet of next season's gladiators if the National Intercollegiate association has its say in the matter. The sixth annual meeting' of this athletic organization was held at the Hotel Astor today and while no definite action has yet been taken on the football code, the general opinion seems to be that the rules committee should leave good

enough alone.

It was generally conceded that with very few minor changes the rules

code as-observed in 1912 would serve

very well for the immediate future. About the only objectionable feature

to tho existing rules was found in the restrictions of the forward pass. It was thought that if the twenty yards distance clause was stricken from this rule everything would be satisfactory. In short it is planned to modify the forward pass in such a manner as to permit the toss to be made in any direction, for any distance, so long as it is received before it touches the ground and to remove all penalty save the loss of the down. This sentiment was voiced by such eminent authorities as Coach Williams of Minnesota and Coach Warner of Carlisle. The middle west appears solid for the retention of the present rules, -with very few modifications.

COFFROTH AFTER JOHNSON-FLYNN

Kaufman Is Knocked Out In Round Tibe

San Francisco, Cal.. Dec. 29. Jimmy Coffroth today started a campaign which he thinks will land the JohnsonFlynn match. He proposes to stage the

encounter at Reno. The loca promoter considers Klynn a serious contender for the heavyweight championship and is planning to give Johnson his price of

$30,000.

"Flynn Is fighting in remarkable

form," said Coffroth. "His showing against Kaufman entitles him' to a

chance at the championship. If I get

the bout it will be a finish affair and

will be staged at Reno."

New York, Dec. 29. Al Palzer, Tom O'Rourke's entry in the "white hope" race, knocked out Al Kaufman of California in the fifth round of their scheduled ten-round bout at the National Sporting club last night. A right uppercut to the Jaw, started in the region of the knee, was the blow that blasted whatever hope Kaufman ever fostered of the heavyweight championship. Kaufman's departure to the pugilistic graveyard might have been averted had Palzer chosen three seconds later to land the finishing pile driver. The round had but twelve seconds to go

when Palzer delivered the tell-tale wallop. The impact of the blow sent Kaufman hurtling into a neutral corner, and as soon as he went down it. became apparent to all that the giant Californian was entirely obvious of his surroundings. The lower thread of the ropes supported Kaufman's head as he lay helpless. Referee Haley tolled off the fateful ten before Kaufman Could command enough of his waning energy lo attempt to get up. He laboriously got to his knees and was in a kneeling position when the bell rang. But he had been counted out two seconds before

the expiration of the session. To many it seemed as if the bell had

saved Kaufman and it was fully half a

! minute before they were -enlightened. Several men. at the ringside held stop watches, and one of them insisted that the round had but five seconds to go' before Palzer connected. j i Friends' of Palzer are today claiming 1 that he is the logical man to stand against Johnson. They point to the fact that he finished Kaufman in half the time Flynn took, and also say that he has qualified for a championship

light inasmuch as Johnson failed to

bowl Kaufman over in ten rounds. It is possible that the next heavyweight fight here will see Palzer pitted against Carl Morris and Jim Flynn. Should he win from both of these men he would stand out as the real "white hope."

U.S. OLYMPIC

SQUAD FAST

New York, Pec. 29. That this country would have strong representation at the Olympic games In Stockholm in 1912 was today declared by. the officials of the Amateur Athletic Vnion under whoso auspices was held the two national championship meetings which ended in Madison Square Garden last night. "While the two meets here were indoors and the Stockholm events will be decided in the open it is contended nevertheless that the events afforded an excellent opportunity for the American Olympic committee , to get a line on the various competitors. Kramer, Kivat and Myer are considered likely

members of the team.

Fry fish, then potatoes You can ' fry any kind of fish, smoked or fresh, in Crisco, and the Crisco will not absorb the fish flavor or odor. You then can use the same Crisco for frying potatoes or any other food without imparting to it the slightest fish flavor. Try this and see that it is possible.

Heretofore it has always been wasteful to fry fish because it meant the throwing away of so much lard. With Crisco not a drop need be thrown away. 11 can be used and re-used.
