bad way suffering from tonsilitis. In {
few days he is to undergo dangerous
surgical operation OF having his tonsils

While we are referring to the objec'
tions against mass play, it might be sllg.
gcstcd as advisable for the authors OF
these arguments to make a little ana ysis
of football injuries. If they will do this
| will assure them that they will find
more men hurt in open field tackles thar
in close formations through the line
This is only natural, because where two
men come together at top speed, and
with full force, they are more liable tC
be injured than where number OF men
fall together slowly, one supported by
his fellow.
