Chance Paramount.

1.-The American colIegian. whether
player or spectator, does not care for
a game in which the element OF chance
IS paramount. He likes to see men play
a game where hard work counts and
g. game where definite planning secures
a weH-appreciated result For this rea-
son he does not care for the unlimited
forward pass, which can now be tried
without severe penalty on first and sec
ond downs.
Throwing the 'bau around indiscrim-
inately may be the last resort of a
weak or inferior team, and as such IS
unsatisfactory. In other respects, like
the separation Of the line Of scrimmago
and the Improvement In the general
conduct and spirit Of the play. the
play. the rules have fully justified them
selves and have rendered the game
more popular than ever.

the racing here this season so far has
developed nothing very sensational IL

tendance on the whole ha= been salts
factory.
New Orleans usually Is regarded as a
developing ground for Jockeys. as most
Of the little riders who nave become
famous on the American turf IN recent
years have served their apprenticeship
at the Crescent City tracks. This year
there has not been the usual number Of
youngsters showing sufficient evidence
or superiority to warrant the hope Of
their working up TO the front rank
and to the Independent fortune which
is at the command Of a high-cIass
jockey.
However, the season IS Young. and il
is not too late for some OF the bows 20
get into the iimeLght. 1t is noted that
the stewards are much more strict with
the jockeys this season than they have
been in some previous seasons. Two OF
the leading jockeys, Mcdaniel and Not
ter, recently were suspended for rough
riding, and there has been an improve
ment ir this respect, which Is gratifying
