WANTS MINNESOTA in
WESTERN ROWING CLUB

Madison, Wis, Jan. 26.-Hope for the ulti-
mate formation of Western Intercollegiate
Rowing association is revived at the University
of Wisconsin by the report from the University
of Chicago that a plan Is being furthered to
make waterway Of the midway plaisance such
an association has been earnestly advocated here
for many years, but the lack of aquatic facili-
ties at the other universities has always made
consummation impossible. 1t Is hoped that Chi
cago may secure the proposed waterway, for the
belief prevails here that an intercollegiate row.
ing league can be started between Wisconsin and
the maroon institution that will eventually take
In Minnesota and possibly Michigan.
Rowing is looked unon here as one OF the
best athletic sports that can be maintained by
students. For more than decade racing crews
have been developed at Madison, and, altho the
department has annually resulted in a net loss
of as high las $1,000 the students, faculty,
alumni and citizens generally have gone down
into their pockets and voluntarily contributed
as much money as was needed.
The receipts from the football games will
doubtless henceforth be cut down by reason of
the attentions the game received at the recent
faculty conference in Chicago so that to main
tain and send crews east will require larger
sum than can be raised by subscription, and the
formation of western rowing league becomes
all the more desirable. sar 7.rr

there Is chance of It's being strongly pressed
at the next meeting of the rules committee.
This rule is In the nature Of a compromise. 1t
keeps the three downs, but makes it SO that
the side does not lose possession Of the ball
after three futile tries but it then gives them
the chance toS kick it out of danger. 1t Is
understood that there is no chance to advance
the ball on the fourth down, but that it must
be kicked . ....... -
Brutality Censured.
Rough play and brutality in the game came
in for their share of censure, and it prac-
tically decided that all practices bordering on
either must be done away WITH matter~hOw
drastic the rule must be made to accomplish
the object. The idea which met with the most
favor was that of expelling man from the
game for the offense and if he repeated he was
to be expelled from the team.
Not satisfied with this, the body went ahead
and recommended that he also be barred from
further competition in intercollegiate football.
This last provision will prevent man, barred
from one college, jumping to another. Once
barred from team, he would be put on a
blacklist and there would be no more chance
of his playing on any team representing a
college. ~. s....~ ..-..- s....
Professor Lees of Nebraska the only repre-
sentative from nonconference college. said that
reform greatly favored in nearly all the
colleges west of the Mississippi.
All Demand Changes. ~.
AFTER was made a member of the rules
committee he said, 81 wrote letters to fifty
different colleges in the region bounded by the
Mississippi and the Pacific coast. Nearly every
college in that region including Stanford and
California, was in favor Of radical changes, and
the great number thought that in the ten-yard
rule lay the cure of many of the evils of the
game. ~..,. : ~ : , an..s- .-.
II must also say that one of the creates
evils in the present system of intercollegiate
football is in the PROSECUTING of high-school
athletes. Last season Lincoln high school had
remarkably strong football team, and of that
team all but one man graduated in June. OF
the eleven men graduating eight have signifed
their intentions of entering conference colleges,
and two only are going to Nebraska I know
positively that these men have been offered in
ducements to go to these colleges. .-.,-
II am also positive that some of the induce
ments are rather large and include more thar
mere board and tuition while at college, Sucf
| things as this doing a great deal to hell
hurt the game, and complete reform canno
be made until such practices are eliminated AL
the evils of the game do not lie in the playing
rules alone" .A.F- $50.
