BY Associated Press.
CHICAGO, March 10.-Western col
leges are to have football this year,
although the style of the game will
be modified to such an extent that
brutality and unnecessary danger will
be eliminated. This was the decision
reached here last night by the faculty
representatives of the big Nine" col

The professional coach is to remain
only as long as existing contracts are

in the organization this year which
will have the services of the profession

BIG COLLEGlANS IN RIOT
Harvard and Columbia Basketball
Teams Participate in Rough
House Tactics !,

by Associated I'reSS.
NEW YORK, March 10.-A small riot
marked the Columbia and Harvard
basketball game last night in the uni
versity gymnasium, precipitated by
Quigley, one of the Harvard forwards.
Toward the end of the second half of
the game, after being several times
warned for rough play, Quigley, it is
charged, landed left hook on the jaw
of Cuthell of Columbia and stretched
the Blue and White player on the
floor.
In an instant several Columbia men
were pummeling the offending player
and only by the prompt interference
of Manager Fisher and Captain Har-
ley and the Joint efforts of the Col
umbia and Harvard players was he
saved from rougher handling. The
Columbia students and other spectators
were indignant but the influence of
some cool heads among them prevent
ed their taking a hand in the melee
The incident marked a well played and
interesting though rough game.
The match decided the second rank
in the intercollegiate basketball cham
pionship. Victory insured to Columbia
her second position behind Pennsyl-
vania, and she won by score of %
to II.

PEBBLES" THE NEW SWEETS
Imitation That One Would Never
Think of Eating Unless Asked

or Told of Them
Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, March 10.-Pebbles are
the newest form of candy served with
dessert by the smart set, and are
greater favorites in small dishes than
candied violets, rose leaves and other
bonbons.
They are affected by Mrs. Stuyvesant
Fish. who was the first woman In the
"40O' to introduce them. She iikes
them on her table for small as Well as
large parties, but for afternoon teas, re-
ceptions and in her boudolr. These
candy pebbles created quite sensa-
ton among her guests when they were
first served, for they are such good
limitations that no one would suspect
thew were not real unless asked to have
some. Mrs. Fish had them in small
cut glass and gold lined dishes in the
center of the table and to make the IL
fusion more emphatic. she had some IN
beautiful sea shells clustered near the
center of the large table, making new
kind of ornamentation.
These pebbles are so delicate both in
form and taste that they will probably
always be used as bonbons. They are
made in all the colors in which pebbles
found along the seashore are seen.
Some or them are pure SlSlSHluS WHlle
and others a dull cream. There are
grays, browns and all shades of red
from maroon to light pink. Others are
of that peculiar sage green that is so
commonly found in stones on the sea-
shore. There are black ones filled with
chocolate and gray-green ones that
contain cocoa beans.
All of them are smooth, apparently
made that way by the action of the
water. The remarkable part of these
candies and what makes them so inter-
esting is the clever way in which they
are shaded and fashioned, as if the
water had taken off corner or eaten g.
