that men were to use their muscle, to use
Ii strongly, but within the rules. The d1f-
ference between foot ball and riot, sald
the president, was that foot ball was ex-
erc1se of the muscle under d1Sclpl1ne
within well-formulated rules, and In or
der to play well there must be self-reH-
ance on the part of every man. The game
tends to develop self-control and self-re-
lance, and is, therefore, educatfye.
Mr.. Rorke. the coach, was then intro
duced by the president and gave heart
to-heart talk dwelling upon the necessity
of having and regarding discipline and
the need of good men-men who have
strength.
Professor Earnest of the department of
law then reused the enthusiasm of the
student players to a still higher pitch and
evoked much applause, as he pledged the
faculty to provide for them in their
studies by devoting to them time out of
class hours sufficient to keep them up
with their work.
Mr.. Garrison, president of the Athletic
Association, followed in an appeal to the
student body for hearty and enthusiastic

to be ranked among the leading foot ball
teams of the country, by reason of the
many scalps" taken from the crack college
teams In Pennsylvania and other states
during the past five years.
Will this innovation on the part of the In
dian foot ball team of Carlisle accrue to it's
advantage at the close of the season?
Herein lies the deep interest at present
being manifested all over the world by foot
ball enthusiasts, and the outcome will be
eagerly awaited by the ardent followers of
the pigskin.
VIII the Indian coach Rogers and his
two Indian assistants prove equal in brains
and skill to the many famous foot ball
strategists of leading universities in the
Cnited States? The pale face coaches who
previously instructed the Indian team did
their work well results have proven
having brought the team up to the excel
lent standard of being considered a danger
Gus foe by all the leading college teams of
the country.
The Indian team itself is sanguine of
maintaining not only its past high standard
of excellence, but of surprising this very
creditable record, the result of being
coached by previous active members of
their own team, who are loyal to the red
skin players and school of which they are
students. These able and enthusiastic foot
ball coaches have full authority to plan
their own campaigns against the products
of the white mems universities.
Former Coaches
Never before have the Indians been trust
ed to do the work incident to the planning
for a foot ball season, and in the past their
victories have undoubtedly been due to the
careful coaching of such men as Glenn S.
Warner, Cornell. and Bull, Hickock and
Mccormick of Yale.
When Warner left for Cornell last sum-
mer 1t was decided by the Carlisle School
offlclalS that 1t was time for the Indians
to be put on their mettle. and after careful
consideration Edward Rogers, a former
Carlisle pupil, who had just been grad
uated from the University of Minnesotas
Law School. and had been picked from over
team of the middle west. was engaged to
take charge of this years coaching.
This new element in foot ball is purely an
experiment and will be closely watched all
the world
The Indian Carlisle team is a big factor
in the makeup of the foot ball league of
the season, inasmuch as it has proved it's
excellence by defeating the teams of such
colleges as Cornell, Columbia, Bucknell
three different times it carried off the hon
ors in contests with the team of The Uni
ersity of Pennsylvania.
The team was then coached by white men.
What will il do this season in its contests
with the big college teams being coached
by full-booded Indians? The end of the
season will tell.
No other foot ball games of the season,
outside of those played by the Big -Four"
attract greater attention and interest than
those played by the Indian teams of Car
