done was at Haberkorn's where three

Iowa City, Sept 17.--With the open
ing of all of the major colleges in Iowa
this Geek, the foot ball season for 1906
will be formally launched and the race
for the Iowa championship begun.
With the shifting about of two of the
coaches, the elimination of the game
in three of the colleges, the disappear
been the idols of Iowa sports for two
years past, and the changes in the
playing rules, the history of the pres
ent year, is bound to be notable one
in the annals of amateur sport. The
first game to be played will be be-
tween the Sheldon high school and the
Morningside college, at Sioux City, on
September 90.
In three Iowa colleges. foot ball, as
an intercollegiate sport, has been for
mally abolished. The state normal
school at Cedar Falls, Penn college at
Oskaloosa and Simpson college at In
dianola have declared against the game
tho it is possible that class teams wiz
be organized in the three institutions
and interclass games permitted. Penn
college made a remarkable record last
season for minor college and high
hopes We're entertained by it's support
ers that this year the Quaker school
would break into the f1rst ranks. A.
times both Simpson and State Normal
have developed strong teams, the latter
especially under the coaching of Doc"
Pell.
The announcement Of the schedules
by the various authorities during the
past ten days has created an interest
ing topic of discussion. This is, just
how much or how little the arrange
ment of games will help or hinder the
chances of the different Iowa college
teams. Ames has disregarded the rec
concentrations of the western confer
ence and has arranged the heaviest
schedule in the state consisting of ten
games, the three major contests being
with the universities Of Iowa, Nebras-
ka and Minnesota The Ames schedule
is we'll arranged with reference to the
Iowa games, the cornhuskers having
an open date after their contests with
Nebraska and Minnesota and then
house warming contest with Grinnell
which will put them in fine condition
to meet the Hawkeyes.
Iowa's schedule of five games is well
balanced and evenly distributed. The
team should be in the best of condi-
ton when it meets Ames unless Doc
Pell develops unexpected strength with
the Drake squad, the Drake game pre-
ceding the Ames contest. Drake has
a hard schedule of seven games, Grim
nell and Coe College have confined
themselves to five games each, Des'
Moines College has six and Morning
