history was made after Georgie
what he ate for supper and then'
tore the place up in general. Here's
how it happened.
Georgie was as usual up to his
sly tricks, the dirty stuff, and be-"
hind Referee Walt Achiu's back.
He had gotten by with a little of
everything to punch out the first
fall win over Jack Pin-up Boy"
Kiser. Popular Jack came back
and used some of Georgie's pet
rough stuff to slam out the second
fall in the thrilling scuffle. Then
in the third Wagner j persisted in
trying to wrap the j ring . ropes
with Kiser Achiu tried and tried
to break It up, but no go. Finally
he had enough and pounced on
. Wagner like a cat on a. naughty
mouse, ' digging deep with those
murderous pinchers " of his : on
Georgie's neck.' What's more he
.held on light and by cutting off
the blood , to Georgie's swimming
' head put him "out" flat It took
two cops and pal Billy McEuin
' to pack Georgie downstairs while
Achiij was awarding the win to
Kisen ..- -
It took the combined efforts of
two rasslers, a referee and about
a ' dozen lucky clients to bring
Wagner around after some 10 min
utes, and was he sick! . Thei he
went to work on things in gen
eral like a mad bulL Again the
rasslers and onlookers had to put
halter on him lest the ancient
armory suddenly crumble to dust
He was that hot A half-hour later

to be there will attest v Those

Changes Eyed
Would OK Coaching
From Sideline Area
PHILADELPHIA, April 18-ff)
The National Football league's
rule committee .recommended to
day two major changes in the pro
grid code and several minor alt
erations, after sifting through a
list of 43 suggestions made by
the coaches and club owners who
Will open their annual meeting
here tomorrow. V .
The two big changes, which still
must be adopted by the league by
a four-fifths vote, - will permit
coaching from the bench and vir
tually eliminate out-of-bounds
kickoffs. i
As an experimental measure, for
the 1944 season, the committee
proposed to permit ' coaches to
communicate with players on the
field by any means, provided that
they remain within a zone meas
uring ten yards in each direction
from the middle of the bench and
do not encroach upon the field.
To : prevent Intentional out-of-
bounds kickoffs, the committee
suggested a five yard penalty on
each kickoff until the ball is le
gally ; handled by v the receiving
side. 1
Less important changes from
the spectator standpoint are the
renewal for ; one year of the free
substitution rule, with the pro vis.
ion that players no longer need fo
report on entering the game; a
chance in timing of time-outs so
that in most cases the ball actu
ally will 'be put into play - after
two minutes; and alterations in
the rules concerning the shift of
players between the line and
backfield and in -the penalty for
interference by the offensive team
on forward passes.
