COLLAPSE or y SYSTEM.

Or. Frank Hugh Foster. in his Gen
tiic History of New England Theology
claims that that school of religious
thought has now become practically
extinct According To quotations given
in tho Literary Digest, the author con-
siders the collapse of that system as
the most remarkable circumstance in
It's history. In 1850, he says. III was
In control Of all the theological scmu-
aries OF The Congregational dcnomina-
ton. with possibly a single exception
aud of some Of The Presbyterian. At
Andover the chair of theology was oc-
cupiod by Park, at Yale by Harris. at
Oberlin by Falrchld, at Chicago by
Boardman. Fifteen years later these
teachers had all been replaced, and IN
no case by Il man who could be cousid-
cred as belonging TO the New England
school, II had endured more than one
hundred and fifty years; II had be-
come dominant in Il great ecolosIastlc-
al denomination, It had founded every
Congregational seminary; and as 1t
were In a night, it persisted from OF
the face OF the earth.
Or, Foster holds that this collapse f.
due 20 the Calvinlsm OF the system.
He argues
'CalNinism eNalts the sole causality
OF God; ana New England theology
found scheme OF detormlnism essen

The total attendance at foot ball games in
1905 was over 1000, 600 greater than il was

largest in the history of the sport up 10

season were those which saw the game be-

Yale and Princeton. From n purely AGA

The western foot bah elevens seemed n
little more backward about adapting them
selves to the new rules than those of the
east. There seemed "a be some HESITATION

There Were good coaches for some az tile
southern clevens. and in addition To that
the new rules appeared to be what the
southern players needed to perfect their
skill. Foot bali in the south IN its coolest
months finds the temperature higher than
in the north, and the players Of the south
undoubtedly can do better at a running
and open game than in one where there is
nothing but pull and heave.
Prof. Dennis of Cornell the chairman of
the rules committee. said when the season
was concluded that it was the experience ~
Cornell that foot han had been more salts

ever had been before, and he also said

eliminated by the new code. and he was
quite unprepared to go ahead and organize
new system for Michigan.
When the Wolverines came east to play
Pennsylvania the first comment which was
made was that the players were woefully
deficient in variety and execution. They
had nothing new, and the little which they
possessed was easy TO solve. 1t is true
that the eleven was far from being at its
best, but there is not the slightest doubt
that eastern foot ball admirers were bit
terly disappointed in what Michigan did,
From the records which had been made
by the organization in the past 1t was an

Foot bali coaches say that in the future
fast men weighing between 40 and i:U
pounds will be great factors in the sport.
Rockwell Foster. last years Yale coach,
says that the scoring possibilities of the
new game have not been touched upon.
In spite of the ten yards gain, which is
necessary. he believes that the time will
come when some university VIII be able
to put a foot ball eleven on the field which
by sheer stiffness and craft VIII be able
to run up a score that will be astonishing.
Throughout all last season there We're
some who continually harped on the ten
yards gain disadvantage to a team.
because it prevented showing the ball down
the field by mass play 1t possibly had not
occurred to them that the ten yards gain
was inserted in the rules for Just THAI
reason. If there was one thing more thaa
another to which the smaller colleges mad
objected it was that they could not interest
their students in the game because it had
resolved itself into simple trail of brute
strength and not test of ones phys!t al
possibilities in all directions
Foot ball was not entered into so gencr-
ally in 1906 as it will be this year 1t has
been discovered by those who are fond
of outdoor pastime that the new game can
be played without mourning the danger OF
conclusion of the brain or injury to the
spina! cord. Wherein existed the real dan
ger of mass play. and there was the trouble

training that they did IN the universities

There were many conservative coaches

penns wanna. who were doubtful of the
efficacy Of the changes which had been
made in the rules Indirectly they fought
hard to- have some of the principles of the
game retained that would make mass
plays possible and not open the contest
