New York, Dec. 2S.-While in the
east to attend the meeting Of the foot
ball rules committee, Athletic Director
Stage Of the University of Chicago, is
believed In Chicago to have paved the
way for an invasion of the east next
fall by the Chicago team.
Pennsylvania and Annapolis both
have invited Chicago to become foot
ball opponent next season, and if the
faculty is willing the maroons are as
sured of at least one contest with a
team of rank. It is whispered that
Stage is after a bigger game and
would be better satisfied with try at
Yale. Both stand for the more open
game, and it is said that both Yale
and Chicago have played the new game
to its best advantage, more so than
by their rivals in either section.
Stages phenomenal offense last fall
has made an impression in the east,
and there is said to be a strong in
clination to see what the maroons have
to offer.
More than mere majority of the
eastern collegians and critics hold the
west cheaply now as result Of the
comparative showing, by the Carlisle
Minnesota and Fennsylvania- Michigan
games, and apparently are more willing
to meet western teams than heretofore.
This probably has been responsible for
the, Willingness of Pennsylvania and
Annapolis to meet Chicago. 7@ .

BABBITT PRAISES
THE NEW GAME

Spring feld,, Mass, Dec. 2S.--Physical
education, particularly in relation to
our public schools, was considered yes

which opened it's session here Wednes-
day night, and will continue thru Sat

the principal topic Of discussion at"yes-
terday mornings session.
The feature Of the afternoon session
was an address by DR.. James A. Bah
the intercollegiate football rules COM
mittee on. "The New Game Of Ameri-
can Football.'
He said that football was essentially
a game for gentlemen, and it was sure
to prove failure in the hands Of pro-
fessionals.
"Physieal educators all over the
country, he continued, Hhave been in
open conflict with professional trainers
gree football shared this opprobrium.
The new system of football, however,
affords SO much opportunity for ra-
tional outdoor exercise and free field
movement, that it must be admitted
that a phase has been placed upon this
department of physical training. 49,
Gin one years time we have jumped
from scathing criticism to at least a
quiescent position. Public interest has

come open and free without Destroy
ing it's points of interest. These con-
ditions are significant, and to those who
have detected a waning interest in base
ball, there comes suggestions that foot
ball is perhaps enveloping too much Of
national interest.
eff this be so, it is regretable, but

The majority of Australian sporting
men who have passed thru here within

right to aspire to a meeting with JEFF

oonsideration,of the Beveridge meat in

modified by the committee tentatively
in number of respects. One of these
is to restrict It's operation to "conti-
mental United States" AS originally
drawn the amendment was applicable
to all OF the possessions Of the United
States. The restriction, according to
the committee, Is calculated to avoid
unnecessary expense and administra-
tive re6-tape in complying with the re-
quirements for an inspection In the

consent to the divorce and his set
tlement upon his wife of an independ-
ent fortune. The attorneys declined
to discuss this phase of the matter.
Mrs Corey is attended while in
Reno by the mother and sister of the
defendant She declines TO see news
