March 25.This city of 'three-quarters of a million ancient as cities go on the North American continent and appearing older from its old world type of architecture, will dip a couple of hundred years back Into history tomorrow night for another skirmish between the French and the Indians. Doubtless casualties won't be as serious, but there could hardly have been a more determined clash in the days of painted braves than when Les Canadierts and the Chicago Elackhawks skate out on the Foram rink for the second game of their Star-ley cup playoff series. Montreal takes Its hockey Emriously and seats have been sold out since the day after the dates were fixed.

Even with two playoff games last we'ek. Montreal's hockey appetite isn't satisfied. Nor will the Hawks be 'without their share of rooters. for some of the English fans are such rabid partisans of the Maroons, the Flying Frenchmen's city rivals. they'd rather see the Hawks than Les Canadiens win.

tournament. New York. March I that some teams last fall were beating the stop rule on shift plays and others were wearing equipment the same color as the ball to trick opponents, the national football rules committee today announced definite action to curb these practices. These were the most important results of the annual session of rule makers for 1930. Instead of approximately one second," the stop period on shift plays was changed to a period of at least one second." The count roughly measuring this moment of pause was increased from four to six and the referee was empowered to carry a split-second watch to assure himself that the rule is being obeyed.

Four pairs of eyes instead of one Cr two will be on a constant lookout for any and all violations of the rules next year. under a provision giving the referee, umpires field judge. and linesman concurrent jurisdiction over all fouls. Referee Is Final Judge. Under the old code there were certain fouls which the referee was to look out for and others for which one of his fellow officials was solely responsible.

The referee will act as the final judge should any conflict of testimony or opinion arise. Deploring unsportsmanEke tendencies as represented by the use of camouflage in designing uniforms, the committee adopted a resolution which deprecates the use of head protectors, jerseys or attachments which are Co similar in color to the ball that they give the wearers an unfair and unsportsmanlike advantage over their opponents."

PENNSYLVANIA BOXING CAPTAIN SERIOUSLY HURT corporation because dispel the illusion of heroism. Nor can a player carry himself as a 'sporting hero before people who are thus given to understand that he is no hero but only, like themselves. a fellow with a job and a boss to bawl him out. Decomes Just a Workman. As a public figure the athlete is in a position to appeal to the devotion of the patrons, but to succeed in the imposture he must be allowed to color his work with the tints of his personality, all of which, in Shires' case, are red.

Forbidden to express himself and held strictly to the performance of routine duties, without flourishes or byplay, the Great Shires will become merely C. A. Shires: color, white; agel 23, employed in the baseball works of a big firm doing business in Chicago and having no more public position than J. J. Dokes, color, white; age 23; employed in the works of a corporation engaged in the manufacture of motor parts.

Less Candor in Old Days. I realize, of course, that this has always been so in the baseball business, but the magnates were less candid in other days and the customers were permitted to enjoy a very pleas. ant illusion in which the athletes figured as gay and privileged characters. The customers envied their apparent independence and waited at the clubhouse gates when the games were over to watch them enviously as they rwaggered out. The employers, on their part, appreciated the business value of this harmless misapprehension and for a long time did nothing to correct it, believ.

Ing. no doubt, that if they reduced their workmen to the level of work. men in the public fancy, then the public might be no more curious to see them leave the job at night than to see the day shift leaving some plant at the steel mills. Barring his sun tan. his diamond ring, and his neck shave.

A. Stagg, Eckersall's old football coach at the University of Chicago, returned from the football rules meeting in New York yesterday Imorning. He expressed deep regret upon learning of the all-time-American quarter back's death. The Maroon athletic director paid the following tribute to his famous pupil: Eckie's death was a tremendous surprise and shock. I thought be was in the best of health.

In fact. when I saw hint in California last tall he seemed to be in splendid condition. both physically and mentally. He got me a ticket for the game at Pasadena at that time. As I think about him, I feel that as a player his predominate characteristic was modesty.

He was very unselfish and unassuming. I never saw anything but that in him in his four years at the university. He did not care for fulsome praise. Ha never was hurt playing. He was so quick that at the last minute he could throw himself so as to avoid being Injured.

Be was a fine sportsman; very generous in his comments of others. Eckie Never Complained" I never heard him whine or complain. If he got licked he accepted it and gave the other fellow due credit for it- He never once made an alibi. As a player he started with a tremendous physical handicap in poirt of weight.

New York, March 25.ISpecia1J The New York Evening Post, in an editorial, says: Walter Eckersall of the University of Chicago was one of the great football players whose names will stand in the long history of the game. He was not of those who now are rushed to greatness in the sports columns for but a single few-games season. He was supreme as a kicker when the game was one of heavy rushing and the forward pass had never been heard of. For four glorious years he kicked to victory the elevens of Stagg and Chicago. He literally won championship games by dropping field goals when no other scores were made.

Also he was a marvelous runner in a broken neld. But above all this, Eckersall will stand as one of the western pioneers who broke the hitherto inr pregnable rush line of eastern football. He took Chicago's name into the sacred territory of Yale and Harvard and Princeton. lie got an A. the Mississippi valley.
