 What our reporter doesn't know about football game would fill a bare loft. He doesn't know a fullback from humpback; a quarter from a quarter horse. or a right guard from the Seventh Cavalry. but he Is handy at toting stretchers around a football game. At two o'clock, dull. the clans had gath cred at the old ball ground All the boys were there encased in feather beds and other defences. There were two doctors an ambulance. q stretcher.. a gallon of arnica. all kinds of bandages. and a Red Cross wagon, and they need ed them all.
 Summed up in a nutshell, football Is about like this: The first thing Is a kick or. which doesn't amount to much. Then after that fellow holds the ball between his legs with q row of shaggy old boys behind him. who stand with glittering eyes and fangs protruding, while somebody blows whistle and somebody else counts. any old way. till he comes to certain number, when the ball is fired backward, some one catches 1t. runs about six feet, when just twenty-one men pile on him. jam him in his slats. twist him like a pretzel. and flatten him out till he isn't thicker than tortilla; then they all fall off and holler: Water, water. water; bring the doctorp And they rub his leg and chunk him in the neck and bring him to. and lift him tenderly on a stretcher. and as they bear him away. he lifts his only whole hand and waves it to his comrades and yeils for Tombstone or the varsity. as the case may be.
 And now we are all on the ground and the boys are jockeying, and the automobiles are resting. and old No. is panting as she pumps air, and on one side of me is one Of Tombstones in. comparable specimens of angelic pleak, antness in the guise of a school "uarin and on the other an old daine whs l looked as if she had been carved out. o jerky, and the small boy with a tir horn and rubber snout on the end O | it was there, making the ambient al | hideous with ineessant discord, and wooly fider who imaEines he Is Coun | Caseini riding down the enemies of th 1 fatherland, is plungins about on horse back, among the women and children | till the officers yanked him eathward 1 and the big signal goes up and thu battle begins.
