Y00 DOMT SAY! - ' - BOXING FOR BAYONET FIGHTING MUST SHOW NO BACK OR SIDESTEPS 7 Billy Rocap First Referee to Use' New Idea of War Department . in Penalizing Boxers Who Lay Back and Counter Rather Than Take Aggressiveness in the Ring. .-'V. ' """ NEW YORK, July 4. The war department commission on training camp activities has made public a new set of rules to govern boxing taught to the American soldiers. The plan is to train them particularly for hand-to-hand fighting and bayonet work. The new system lays particular emphasis on the aggres siveness of the boxer, as this is the particular quality which makes a good bayonet man. , . . f All side stepping, covering up, sparring for vantage position, are discouraged. In some cases there are penalties to be imposed on this work. The purely defensive tactics will no longer be tancrht th fifrhtinp- men wun . -. - - ri r- TTntUr the army rules me DOUIS Vwllt be limited to four rounds, with the exception of special bouU and divisional championship matches. f which will be permitted to go six rounds. Downs are limited to the ! standard of 10 seconds, while In the "novice bouts the ruls provide that . the rounds shall not be more than two minutes In length. Value of Alertness The real value of boxing to the ' soldier, it is explained by the au thorities, depends largely upon the development of aggression and alert- pess. In close quarters fighting the 4 art of self defense is not so essen tial, it Is argued, when the men are armed with bayonets or hand gre-' nades. as are the purely fighting qualities of-the man. Dr. Roycrof t of the war depart ment, in his explanation of the new rules, says: i Means S Per Cent Fight "A fierce attacking forward ac tion bayonet charge 'means a 98 per cent quota of fighting men returned to safety. This Is one of the 1m ' , po riant reasons why -he new boxing rules set a high premium on offen- sle rather than defensive fight ing." William H. Rocao. the noted au thority on boxing and sports editor of the Philadelphia Public Ledger, explained why he awarded the dect - slon to Benny Leonard on June 25. when Leonard boxed Jack Brltton In . the Quaker City. Mr. Rocap says In arriving at the decision, he kept 1 continually in mind the new code of boxing rules , Issued last weefc by Dr. Roycroft. head of the athletics divi sion of the war department's com- ' mission on training camp activities. " Here's Why He Did It ' In explaining In his paper why he awarded the decision to Benny Leonard, Mr. Rocap says : . "Referees' and judges of boxing are asked by the war department's commission of training camp activi ties to lend their aid In encouraging aggressive boxing. The writer Is With the United States government lit his Judgment of boxers and box ing contests. In, arriving at the de cision In the Benny Leonard-Jack Brltton bout he kept the government code continually In mind. Leonard did the greater part of the leading, landed the greater number of clean blows on leads, blocked when block- - Ing counted, and was entlUed to the decision. Brltton fought a defen ' slve battle, being the aggressor only . in streaks. -He frequently played, evasively and used the ring to keep ; himself out of harm's way. Those taction were all right before the war. ; . ' But not now. America la develop ' ing an army of fighters. Each man must learn to tear In and give his . opponent no quarter. "All backstepplng, coverlng-up and purely defensive work are discour aged under the army boxing rules, ' and each contestant Is made subject to a penalty for such work. An effl , , elent fighting soldier must not only ,; be trained Jn the .technique of of fense and defense, but must be .r charged with the proper fighting ; i nplrlt." OWEN BUSH SPRIGHTLY AS OF YORE AWEN BUSH Is no chicken. He will be 30 years old next October, and he is now in his tenth year as a major league ballplayer. But Bush doesn't seem to lose his PORTLAND HOCKEY STAR TO FLY baseball ability with age. He just goes on from year to year, like Hans Wagner did, and apparently is made of the kind of stuff that wears like iron, for he hasn't slowed up noticeably and he still ranks as one of the best lead-off men In either major league. Star for Nine Tears Bush has been one of Detroit's stars for the past nine years. As shortstop for the Tigers he has always ranked high in his league as a fielder, and there are few men who can cover a bag any betterthan "Ownte." Averages 90 Ran Yearly Look back over Bush's record Xhd you'll find that the little Indlanapolitan has a consistent habit of scoring 90 or more runs every season for the Tigers. He Is the lead-off man of the Jennings outfit, and at working the pitchers he Is there like a duck. The craftiest hurlers In Ban John son's league have a tough time keep ing Bush off the bags when he steps to the plate. He is Bhort ' of sfature, and therefore hard to pitch to., But he Is also a good waiter ; he makes 'em all pitch to him, and he can sting the ball If they put It where he likes to swing, -i Is Heady Basernnner Once on the bases Bush Is a worry to any pitcher who happens to be work ing. He is a heady baserunner and he doesn't take i undue chances, for he has always had an array of sluggers behind him. jast season ttusn scored 112 runs and he has scored more than 100 runs three times before.

Within the last three years Tiger-town has been practically atrlpped of Its great ath letes, and it was only by the most successful work on the part of Coaches Keene and Fttzpatrlck that they were able to make the showing they did for the Orange and Black at iFranklin field in the Intercol legiate meet this year. Loses Last Stars With the graduation of Captain J. H. Barrett and R. C. Erdman. the university has lost the last two of its great athletes. Both of these men will Join the fighting forces of their country this summer, according to the latest word received here. t R. V. Cleveland, son of former President Grover Cleveland, and O. A. Trowbridge, who have recently been making a showing on the Tiger team, propose to see actual service, Cleveland having already enlisted. Six Otaers Totnateer With these two gone, Princeton will not have a single man left who was a point winner In any of the meets In which the team participated this year. Six other members of the varsity team have already volun teered.

The captain of the Port land Rosebud quintet left Wednesday night for Vancouver, B. C, to enlist In the Canadian overseas aviation service. He will take his training for flight com mission in eastern Canada. Oatman has been at the Foundation yards building ships for the French gov ernment, but quit the other day to Join the. colors. He Is a Canadian by birth and his brother Ross Is In the 228th bat talion of railway englneefs, which is In France. Eddie joined the battalion himself, but received his discharge at St Johns, N. B., as the unit was about to embark. Art Duncan, another well known Pa cific coast hockey player, is in the avia tion service of Canada and probably is fighting Huns in the air by this time. Oatman is 27 years old, has had wide experience In athletics and Is In good physical condition, so. that he believes he will make It as art , aviator. Oatman played hockey three or four years with the Rosebuds, before that being with ; Westminster. He came to the coast from the Quebec club and was accounted the best -forward in hockey. He was a brainy player, a fast skater. tireless In competition and an excellent leader. . Haaie was probably as popular a hockey player as ever put on the skates on the Pacific coast, and his many friends will watch his career as an avl-. ator with interest. Multnomah Members !
