NEW TORK. Aug. 2I.-In all the dis
cussions of -big baa ball salaries very
lull attention Is, paid to the ahort life
of the star player and the wanderings
which he must endure once he haa passed
from the big league. Conditions are
somewhat more iultable now alnc the
practical abolition by court decision of
the ten-day clause, which enabled a man
ager to cast a man adrift at any time
. Tet not infrequently the atar of today
ia the bush leaguer of tomorrow. Per
hapa the moat famoua Instance of t It la
enrt waa the caae of Itohe, a utility
player with the Chicago White Sox. By
accident It waa necessary to draft him
fur the world'e aerlea agalnat the Cuba,
and it w.a hla terrific hitting .which
brought the championship to Chicago.
After, the end -of the aerlea the papers
announced that Comlakry had declared
Boh would alwaya have a home with
th Whit Sox in consideration of hla
great work In th aerlea. Possibly thla
waa mere newspaper talk, but, at any
rat,' the next year Rohe waa aent to a
club In ths Southern league, and not even

waa ah'pped far out to some remote epot

and th last word comes from th Venlo

extremely auccessful pitcher In the Na

RITCHIE MAKING AN OLD CRY
RaUei Time-Honored Question of
Fighting Versui Boxing.
ORDER CHANGED WITH BOUTS
New Iteglm of th ninar Started
When Limited Battlra Are Hched-
led anil llenen Were
Given oa Polata.
NEW YORK, Aug. 23. While Ritchie's
repeated assertions that he wn de
prived of th lightweight champion
ship by a poor decision has given
fresh impetus to a question that Is aa
old aa glove fighting. The question is
whether fighting should be given the
preference over boxjng In deciding chnm
plnnshlp bouts.
Ritchie admits that Welsh landed more
often and had the better defense, but
maintains that hla harmless tups should
not have counted. Ritchie aaya that as
he, himself, did all the real fighting he
should have been allowed to share the
honors of a draw at least. This on the
ground that although he failed to ac
complish much, Welsh for hla part did
not even try to do anything worth wh:le.
Thoae who uphold Ritchie's Ideas in
judging an Important battle assert that
In the beginning all pugilistic encounter
went to a flnlah, the only logical method
of determining the winner; that shorten
ing the bouta waa made necessary merely
to llmlnat th brutality of long-drawn-out
affair and that It then devolved
upon th referee to award the decision
to the man who In hla opinion would
have won had th bout gone on to Its
logical conclusion. Under this system all
point are by nq means equal in a1ue.
For Instance, a staggering right hook to
in jaw is worth numerous light taps
having ao serious effect
port Haa rhnniicil,
Those who favor the opposite extreme
say that th nature of tho sport changed
when limited bouts were introduced; that
all fair hits have the aamo value, no
matter what their effect upon tho re
clplent. They aay that the condition of
tha men at th finish and their apparent
chances of ultimate victory by a knock
out should not b taken Into considera
tion. .
Thla makea It possible for a contestant
to win, even though he has been rendered
unconscious nine seconds before th final
bell. In fact, nuch decisions have been
rendered and have met with the approval
of th best boxing authorities. Yet these
same critics favor th man who has done
th most effectlv work whenever the
outcome Is at all close. They are num
bered among thoae who are loudest in
their protests that bo champion should
los hla title merely because he has been
outmaneuvered, but unhurt by a more
sKtiiful roe.
The trouble Is that no hard and fast
rule haa been laid down, and without
such it Is impossible to be consistent.
Th referse who hav been most sue
cesaful try to take a common sense point
of view, giving a certain amount of credit
ror righting ability as well as boxing
skill. But each person haa hi own prl
ate opinion as to the relative value of
certain points and each can give good
reaaona for the same. Therefore, until
mor definite rulea are made referees'
decisions will always be unsatisfactory.

NEW YORK. Aug. 22. Kid McCoy, th
'x of the ring, is going to fight again,
The discoverer of the corkscrew punch
now in Han Francisco, wher he has
signed to tackle Charley Miller in a four-
round bout on August 2S.
from time to time McCoy, w
ho la no
trate hla oft-repeated assertion that th
men or louay ao not compare wuti me
stars of his time. And so far McCoy haa
been able to get away with It without
suffering a defeat. Two years ago Mc
Coy took on John Willie and Jim Savage
at Brown's gymnasium. Both men wero
forced to bow to th veteran. -Having
thua pointed hla argument. McCoy
wisely retired from the field without go
ing any farther. A few months ago Mc
Coy obtained a match with George Car-
pentier In Paris,
under th Impression
that the Frenchman was an nvtrrtt1
boxer. However, he oon discovered that '
Carpentler really could fight, so McCoy
very shrewdly culled off tha match.
' McCoy ia strong for physical culture
and has kept himself In good condition.
In hia bout with Savage he demonstrated
that for a round or two he was at ill dan
gerous, although he tired rapidly. In
fact It took hla last remaining ounce of
strength to land tha coma clout. If th
blow had failed McCoy would not hav
been able to last ancthcr round himself.
KWdently McCoy believes that he can
go four rounds without any great trouble,
especially with such an uncouth work
man as the Frisco luotorman. Unlena
th veteran auciumb from exhaustion.
Miller la not likely to land a blow. If
McCoy still retain anything of hla old
wallop ha may even win with a quick
knockout

SOME NINES HAYE NEW STUFF
Major League Team Are Showing
Some Original Base Ball.
PLAYS WELL THOUGHT OUT
Men Are Islng Their Head LlUe
Flnaaclers and Making; the
Most of Every Orennlon
that Arises.
NEW YORK. Aug. 22.-There are
teams In the major leagues that are
pulling new muff, new plays, unexpected
plae, and getting away with them. In
fact, there is more real base ball general
ship and bruin work being shown thla
season than lor a long tune.
One of tho prettiest plays evolved- bv
tho Athletics this year is the squeeze,
with runners on. second and third, with
both runners attempting to score. In
one game at Chicago both tallied. The
play is a variation of Mike Kclley'a fa
moua play of olden times, when he used
to score, from second behind the man who
was thrown out ut the plate.
The Athletics have worked this plav
quit often." With runners on second, and
unm, tne batter pushea a bunt down the
line,. If possible, with both runners ml.
vancing at top speed when the ball ia
in iieu. j.ne runner rrom second nat-
urally has a great lead, and turns third.
gaining on the man ahead. IX the ball la
neiuea to the plate, there ia a chanca
to catch the first runner, but while the
catcher ia tagging him the one behind
slldoa aafe on the other side of the plate.
If the opposing lnflelders are caught
asleep or hesitate aa to which shall field
the ball, Tjoth runners will score, as they
did In Chicago.
'Preventing- Mlxapa.
Hertog, with tha Reds, la preventing
mlxup on balls thrown toward the plat
when a runner Is trying to score. Herxog
Knows that not one pitcher in ten knows
whether to let the ball go on to the plate
or try to catch the runner or catch the
ball and shoot back to second to catch
th batter, who will attempt to take an
extra base on tha throw home. There
fore, he makes all hla pitchers go back of
the catcher when a hit is made.
. Maranville and Evers are playing a
new lot of stuff around second. . Tho
chief Improvement Is In Maranville'
change of style of passing balls In
forceouts and in starting double plays.
He used to snap the ball at the second
baseman, which Is risky when the baae
man Is running at top speed toward him.
Now he scoops it. getting a fraetlon of a
second more speed and taking Infinitely
less risk of causing a muff.

ROME, Aug. 23. Dr. Marchiafava, on

, Eleven Lineup.

LINCOLN, Aug. 22. (SpecIal,)-Although
football practice is still four weeks off.
Coach Stiehm haa already started prep
aratlons foe capturing his fourth straight
Missouri valley championship and a hope
ful of producing another all-victorioua
team. It would seem with the material
at hand th .lengthy mentor's hopes ara
not without foundation for Stiehm 1
practically sure of six of last year' vet
erans -a a nucelus for his 1914 gridiron
machine. ,
Tho Us Job which faces Coach Stiehm
la tho development of two dependbla
ends. Stiehm loses both of last year's
wing men Beck by graduation and Mas
tin having made up his mind not to re
turn to school this falL
Another unexpected blow .cam this
week from Oshkosh, Wis., when Btlehm
received a letter from Raamussen. a star
last season on the freshman eleven. In
forming him that Rasmussen would not
retuin to school. With Chamberlain and
Corey. Raamussen composed a trio of tha
most likely looking youngsters over de
veloped In one year at Nebraska.
Gellwlck About Da.
Oellwick. who has played on th varsity
in minor game for two years, Is about
due to how real varsity form. He Is an
end and may be able to fill on of tha
vacancies. Ed Huegg, an ex-Llncoln High
school player, who subbed two years, la
another promising end. - Phil Sheldon, a
former IJnooln High school player; J. L.
Caley, a Sterling, Neb., product and Mane
of Norfolk; are other men who will be
given a chance at the end positions. War
ren Howard, the Omaha High schoo' star.
piayea ena ror on season on the varsity,
nd co,u!d tep into the breach easily, bul
Stiehm is desirous of saving him for the
back field.
Rt of Line la Stronar.
The remainder of the line promises toba
even stronger than last. year. - Captain
riaillgan wfll be seen in his old position
at tackle. Hal Corey, the big freshman
star, will likely be the other tackle.
Thompson, the Omaha High school boy,
will not be back at center but Cameron,
a tafkte last season, is naturally a center
and can be easily shifted. Cameron
Played center four years In the high
school. ,
Abbott, who made a remarkable record
in playing, guard his first year, laar -
0!son, will be back again. Pat Norrls, a
-rin r-jau star, Halberslaben of Un-
coln, R. Q. Lyman of South Omaha. O.
W. Gilligan and W. T. Roberts are all
available for. the other guard position and
with Hulligan, Carey, Cameron and Ab
bott, Stiehm believes he will have tho
best line the Cornhuskera ever boasted of.
Qssrlrrbark Fixed. '.H.
With Warren Howard at quarterback,
Steim has no worries about this position.
Howard played quarter at different times
for the varsity and Is thoroughly depend
able. Stiehm has other quarterback ma
terial, however, in Karl Hawkins and Uiclc
W estover.
Rutherford and Chamberlain ar slated
for the halfback positions and a wonder
ful pair .they will make. Rutherford
proved his ability last season, whll
Chamberlain is looked upon as the best
freshman player Nebraska ever had.
Chamberlain could be shifted at fullback
and Con Wilson, another Lincoln .High
school player, will probably be given a
workout at half. Stiehm would have little
occasion to call in another for the third
Place in the backfield . Poylo and Balls
are two other backfield men available for

SIXTY-ONE THOUSAND IN
GERMAN UNIVERSITIES
BERLIN, Aug. 15.-Almost 81,000 stu
dents were enrolled at Germany' twenty
one universities in the last semester, and
4,0u0 more attended certain lectures with.
out being regularly inscribed. The small
est university, that of Rostock, has a
trifle more than a thousand students,
and the University of Berlin leada with 8,
53S. Only 6.010 of the 61,000 were women. Re
calling the outcry pf the last year or two
against foreign students, on Is surprised
to find that there were only-6,000 foreign
ers enrolled. Medicine attracts the great
est number of students, but philosophy,
philology and -history ar not far behind.
Most of the universities are crowded.
