Princeton Favor- y Change In the Football
Rules

PRINCETON. Jan. 13.-A meeting Of the Grad
uate Advisory and Athletic Executive COM
mittees OF the college was held tonight. The
football men strongly favor q reconstruction
OF the football rules. and fear that unless
some step Is taken to eliminate the more OBJ
jectionable features OF the game the faculty
will take hand in the business.
It is pretty we'll understood that In the meet
Ing tonight the mootad question was brought
UP. and that, at suggestion OF Princeton. the
University, Athletic Club, will Issue a
if IN " oonysntiS%. Il Is believed h hsfe
that Yale Is in entire sympathy with the pian
OF a convention held under the auspices OF the
University Athletic Club. Harvard is an IN
known quantity but PrincetOnians believe
that the Cambridge men will readily agree to
take part.
The opposition OF the University OF Penn
sylyania to the management OF the affair ny
the University Club does not seem reasonable
to the authorities here. Princeton is not In a
position to dictate. and would hesitate TO call
a convention on her own authority.
At the meeting tonight PIofs- Woodrow
Wilson and William III. hloene, G. C. Cuyler

Max Farrand o2. were present, in addition to
seven representatives OF athletic interests
from the Undergraduates Max Farrand ten
