Total. ..137

All the college and high school
games were played under the new
rules adopted at the closing of 1905
season to satisfy the demand for less
dangerous football.
In that year and preceding ones the
casualties fell heaviest on high school
players, who played the game exactly
as it was played by the college men.
In college teams the chief requisite
was weight, strength and ability to
stand the terrific punishment in line.
smashing and mass plays.
In modified form the same condi-
lions ruled in school football, but
here, while the possibility of punish
ment was as great, the strength to
resist was less, and the weaker mem
bers of the team seldom came
through game unscathed.
The heavy death rate among "out-
siders' or independent players this
year confirms the view of coaches
generally that the new rules, if fol-
lowed, will eliminate much of the
danger of the gridiron. The outsiders
have been slow to modify their play,
and have suffered in consequence.
Analysis of the nature of the more
serious injuries sustained this year
compared with the record last season,
shows the good effect of the modified
rules on the gridiron. With one ex-
ceptfon there is reduction all along
the line.
The following figures reveal the
vast improvement made in this direc-
ton.

Fancy Blouse Waist.

The waist that gives the long, OF
somewhat dropping shoulder effect,
is one of the latest favorites of fash
ion, and is to be noted in variety OF
forms. Here is one that is arranged
to form a V at back and front, which
is very generally becoming, and that
can be utilized for almost every sea-
sonable material. In the illustration
crepe de chine is trimmed with heavy
lace, but not alone are the silk and
wool materials appropriate, linens
also are made after such fashion for
the late summer, and the design is
one that can be relied upon to be
used throughout the coming as we'll
as the present season. The waist is
closed invisibly at the left of the
front, which in itself commends it to
many women and 1t is altogether at
tractive and graceful
