CHAMPAGNE WON FOR YALE.
Coach Rutterworth Fed His Men on
tho Fat of the Land.

Boston. Mass, Nov. 29.-The startling
announcement is made here that Yale S
football success was due to the cham
payne training. There was something un-
usual III the way that Yale's football pia y
ers We're trained this fall. A great inno-
walton WAS made by Head Coach Butter
worth that, had it failed of success, would
have been laid up by many as grave er-
ror. 1t Won, however, and hereafter Yale
will follow Il new method OF training and
diet.
The rnost radical departure that Mr. But
terworth made was in regard to the diet
of the players. II He believes in the English
idea of an athlete'straining.
In former years the diet OF the football
players has been the most rigorous of all
the athletic teams. 1t was always be-
lieved that football player needed rare
beef and stale bread and oatmeal. Sweets
were considered dangerous, as We're also
all sorts of alcoholic drinks.
ButterwortL this fall, much against the
wishes of many of the coaches, adopted q
most liberal form of diet He allowed the
players to eat anything they cared Tor
that was within the bounds of reason. he
watched every man carefully and pre-
scribed for him according to his peculiar
temperament, and the way he did his work
But most radical Of all innovations by
Butterworth was liberal supply OF cham
payne with every dinner. The dinner.
which came at $50 O'Clock in the evening,
was liberal in every course, and was what
is termed good, heavy dinner-soup, fish,
meat and sweets. Added to this was cham
pagne, forming as liberal meal as a club
man would have.
The players enjoyed this change from oat-
meal and beefsteak, and their physical con
dition improved under it. As soon as any
player showed signs OF his hard work tell
ing upon him his supply of champagne was
increased, and he rapidly got back into
condition.
