Most unfortunately the Association Of West
ern Colleges, Of which A. A. Stage. formerly OF
Yale is a leading spirit met and made radical
change in the scoring rules, which change
seemed unwise to the Eastern college men, and
so they were unwilling to adopt 1t here The
Western colleges will now count goal nclud-
ing touchdown as only five instead of six. goal
from a drop kick in the field only four instead Of
five. and goal from a place kick only three In
stead OF five. 1t is most unfortunate that this
change should have been made in the West
without some effort 10 consult with the Eastern
football men, for Il puts the game on a FAR dlr-
ferent basis West Of the Alleghenies from that
East. and makes any basis or comparison OF tne
teams at the end of the season extremely dill
cult II 1t could be made simply question OF
comparing the numoer OF touchdowns mace or
of goals kicked, the comparison would not be
difficult; but any such radical change as
Mr.. Stagg and his friends have made causes a
readjustment Of methods Of playing to large
extent Teams will no longer. for instance, try
to make a place-kick goal '""onse OF the small
score II counts whereas formerly this was
legitimate and admirable play, counting score
Of ive. It is greatly to be hoped that another
year the Eastern football men and the Western
football men will try to get together and devise
uniform set Of rules. If they do not do so the
game in the two regions Will grow more widely
and widely apart
Until all the college teams are back on their
native heaths and hard at work. 1t is hardly
advisable to attempt to discuss the chances Of
