FOOTBALL NOT A DANGEROUS GAME.

FOOTBALL NOT A DANGEROUS GAME.
WHAT AN INVESTIGATION AMONG THE COLLEGE
PLAYERS BY wEII~KNOwN MEN HAS SHOWN.
There will be published time in the course
of the coming summer, volume which will be
one Of the most important additions made TO
athletic literature Its purpose will be TO show the
effects of the game of football the physical and
mental condition of all the who have played
in the colleges since the game introduced in
America.
The undertaking first started by Robert
Bacon, Of the Harvard Board Of Overseers, last
fall. at the request of Mr. Crocker. a prominent
Harvard graduate. who moved by spirit of
animosity to football. bat by precisely the opposite
feeling Both Nj. Bacon ana Mr. Crocker were
well-known players. who the crimson in the
late seventies and early eighties Mr.. Bacon saw
as chairman. 4 committee was then formed OF
men OF reputation and influence. who prepared a
set OF questions to the effect Of football These
questions were sent not only TO old players Of the
three leading observation-disclosures. Yale ana Prince
tOn-bu also TO the players on the teams last season
at all the American colleges and active ayers
in the leading preparatory schools.
The result OF the investigation has not yet been
made public. but IL is authoritatvely declared
ball as a game. and that they show that a
matter Of fact. the sport Is not dangerous one
The committee has learned that nearly all the in
juries were mere bruises sprains. and that 70
cent OF these were due to the nature OF the
field instead of 10 collisions occurring In the game.

THE SPECIAL LIBRARY MEETING.
PORTS PRESENTED.-THEA AC- TON TAKEN.

The special meeting of the library association on Monday night, postponed one week ago, was without donbt the most largely attended meeting the asso- citation has held in it's history. The meet ing was called at o'clock, and before that hour every seat was taken and many stood. President Charles $. Platt pre- sided and the warning was read by the secretary, Miss Emma Terrill. Two re- ports were presented, a majority report signed by Allison P. Smith and Frank Wright and minority report by Rev o. o. Wright. Both reports are given in full. It was first voted that the minor ity report be indefinitely postponed. It was voted to adopt the majority report, with the exception of Recommendation No. 4, which was stricken out. The ma jOrity report was then adopted in full. Later in the evening, on motion ot Principal Cliff of the Academy, it was voted to strike out Recommendation No. 3. There seemed to be but one mind on the part of the members of the associa- tion present and that was against any change of location of the Newtown li- brary. The majority report was pre- sented by the chairman of the committee, Allison P. Smith, and the minority re- port by Rev O. O. Wright. Both reports were presented in writing and were at tentively listened to. In regard to Rec ommendation No. of the majority re- port, it was voted that the appointing oi the canvassers by districts be left with the trustees. AS to Recommendation No. ? of this same report, Allison P. Smith, Frank Wright and P. E. Cliff were appointed a committee to carry out it's provisions. A vote of thanks were given the gentlemen who drew up the majority and minority reports for theiI good work. Rev MT Wright, who pre- sented the minority report, did not fee, surprised at the result, but expressed his regret that the members of the associa tion. did not take broader and more un. selfish view of the situation. Among those who participated in the discussion during the meeting were Charles H Northrop, Rev MT Linsley, M. c. Flaw ley, J. J. Northrop, A. P. Smith, Frank Wright, Rev o. o. Wright and Mrs c. s Platt. President Platt expressed the hope that the attendance at the annua meetings might be equally large and en thusiastic. The thought was also giver expression by several ladies that if the association should attempt any enter tainments there would be no lack of help CTS. The two reports follow, and vii repay careful reading, They are a! follows:
