that ne is in the race for the republi-
can gubernatorial nomination. Mr..
Herriott lives at Stuart, Guthrie coun-
ty, in the ninth congressional district
He is standpatter and an old soldier.
His entry into the contest will transfer
considerable political activity to the
ninth district, as two other represen.
tatives in that district are also candi-
dates for positions on the republican
state ticket
Former Speaker Byers has announc.
ed his candidacy for attorney general
and DR.. Porterfield, also of that dis,
'trict, is in the race for railroad com.
missioner While Mr.. Herriott is a
standpatter web" Byers is a promi
nent member of the progressive wing
but 1t has got into the air in some way
that he is the one who is to be the
beneficiary Of the proposed "compro
mise" on a portion of the ticket.
1t is possible that the candidacy Of
Herriott for governor may upset this
compromise and make free fight fol
the control Of the district.

FOOTBALL is DEAD AT HARVARD
! UNIVERSITY
IT MUST BE REFORMED
The Game AS II Is Played at Present
Is Declared to Be Thoroughly Bad
by Committee Appointed to Report
to the Management OF Big School,

Boston, Mass, Jan. 16.-Harvard I'm.
iversity definitely has abolished the
game of football because, as played, 1t
is a menace to the morals as we'll as
the bodies of the players
Not until the game has been re-
formed in way acceptable to the
board of trustees will its re-establish-
ment be considered by the university
authorities.
The discontinuance of the game is
a result of vote taken last week at
a secret meeting of the board of over.
seers, when it was decided that inter,
collegiate football at Harvard would
not be permitted until the rules and
regulations had been so changed and
amended as to remove what the over.
seegs regard as the evils of the pres.
emf game. The news has just leaked
on, among the students. The over
seets accepted unanimously the opin
ions of a special committee that the
game as at present played is essen
TALLY bad in every respect, and that
the method of formation encouraged
trickery and foul play.
Present Game Thoroughly Bad.
The committee declared that II
changes were to be made no man now
a member of the so-called intercolle
giate rules committee should have a
hand in it, the committee believing
that these persons are so far commit
ted to the present system that they
could not agree to such changes as
are absolutely necessary to produce a
decent, clean, pleasurable contest, "in
stead Of the present apology for a
rough and tumble fight"
Football is a fine game when prop
erly played the committee says, 'but
the present method is thoroughly bad
and ought to be stopped absolutely
and finally. Any university taking
this action will later be considered as
aNbenefactor by many players and by
Z all lovers of healthful, clean sport and
fair play"
Under the ruling of the overseers
football is now in allegiance at the
university until the committee on the
regulation of athletic sports has made
Its report to the board and until the
board has accepted the new rules ant
regulations in every particular
Whether the reformed rules can be
arranged and accepted in time for the
resumption OF football next season Ii
problematical.
Student Body is Amazed.
Some determined action by the
board of oyerseers had been antici
pated in Harvard athletic circles. but
the radical attitude of abolishing the
game altogether caused great sur
prise amoHg students and graduates.
