FOR AND AGAINST FOOTBALL.
Harvard Banishes, While Hnle De-
tends the Gam me.


Close on the heels Of Harvard's decis-
ion TO Danish football as played at pres
emit. her traditional athletic rival, Aale'
has come out in defense of the game.
President Hadley, at the recent dinhe:
of the New York alumni, said that 1907
hall was bound to be played, If properly
modified. and that, among all major
sports it has for the student the douDie
advantage of being the most Democracy
and the least dangerous. Played by rlch
and moor alike, it claims fewer VICTIMS
than the sports whose successful pursuit
is confined to the rich alone lie re1er,
rod TO FREQUENT deaths from hunting ana
AZ fling. but said that during the thirty
Years that Yale had played !tuspy loot-
hall no death or permanent injury had re-
suited to a Yale a .
President Faunce says that the faculty
at Brown is wrestling with the suoJect'
hut that he fears that the pubic mas
become hysterical over it, and that the
Sins of ali sport will be loaded on to 1901
hall. After all, he thinks the physical
danger is of far less Importance than the
social and ethical side of the game.
Ar Chicago the representatives OF the
..bip nine'' western colleges have decided
mon many radical changes for football
and other college athletics, with the pur'
pose of curbing professionalism. 1t was
agreed that, unless football were modiheo
SO as to prevent brutality by the rules
committee, the. big nine' would discon'
tinue the game for two years. 1t wa de
cided that in future the college faculties
should lave charge of the gate receipts
One rule proposed would bar all graduate
students from the matches. A player
must have as many recitations during thu
football season as at any other time o.
the year. The students shall have moth
ing to do with the securing of coaches
and the coach must be a membe OF th'
faculty. The committee would limit tht
number Of intercollegiate games in ;
season to FIVE and limit the admission
fnos To n cents.
