The Popularity
OF PuShbaII.
Il Is Coming In Vogue as a Substitute at
Some Colleges For the Cane Rush.
Excitement of the Contest.

TOOTBALL is not the only diver
sion of students that the col
leges are trying to reform. An
other recreation or sport or
custom, or whatever it may be termed
is the cane rush or spree, which has
been handed down from one genera
tion of students to another as tradi-
tion to be upheld at all costs, DEGREES
of faculties or other powers to the
contrary Notwithstanding The cane
rush is not usually as bad as 1t is
painted. The degree of roughness
which it assumes depends a good deal
on the institution where it Is In vogue
and the number of students participat-
ing, the rules observed or not observed,
etc. Usually 1t is the custom of the
upper class men to dwell on the dan
gerous character Of the encounter in
order to inspire the freshmen with
more or less terror and give them a
chance to show of what kind of stuff
they are made. Many mammals boy
has lost his timidity and maidenliness
by participating in scrimmage of this
kind and in jumping into the thick Of
the fray and getting taste of what 1t
feels like to be in a real battle.
Nevertheless the old fashioned cane
rush is open to criticism In some par
ticulars as a college custom. There Is
now a movement to substitute for 1t
what is called pushball. This is sport
which can be regulated better than a
cane rush. 1t affords an interesting
spectacle and gives the contending
classes the chance to exhibit their met
tie. 1t is exciting without being espe-
clally dangerous. 1t seems to be find
ing favor this year at n number of the
colleges and universities of the land.
Recently about 400 students of the
sophomore and freshman classes of the
University Of Pennsylvania engaged in
pushball contest on the athletic
grounds known as Franklin field. The
participants wore appropriate cos
tunes, and some were stripped to the

waist. The classes fought to make
goal with monster globe seven feet In
diameter. There was a resounding
thud when, after the president of the
senior class had given the signal, the
freshman and sophomores rushed at
each other from opposite sides of the
field and met in the center, where the
leather sphere became the object Of at
tack from both classes, balanced Oh
scores of hands raised high above
heads. For a moment it stood as If
alive and determined not to honor
either contestants. Then with rush
it foated along, impelled by eager
sophomore hands, just like big soap
bubble. In less than five minutes the
sophomores made the goal. The fresh
men were unable to score, so the rec
ord was 10 at the end of q twenty
minute contest. The battle was q Cruel
ing one and was halted several times
by the referee to give Fallen combat
ants opportunity to rise. The marshals
on the outskirts of the fray kept a
lookout to render aid to the injured,
and the sportN0h the whole was we'll

crowd, which evinced its interest in the
success of the respective classes by
cheers and college cries
There is more fairness in a contest

with referees to enforce the regula-

lengths in having their fun or carrying

and little rough sport now and then
do him no harm, but In the past the
customs prevailing have sometimes
given the fun loving spirits rather too
much chance, and the results have
often been harmful to them and their
fellow students.

Chair Hitchino,

"The chair hitcher," says business
man, "is the greatest nuisance that an
office man is compelled to endure.
"The hitcher is always deeply inter-
eSted In the matter he has come to
talk over, and the more he talks the
closer he draws his chair, and with
every additional point he makes he
gives his chair another hunch in your
direction, and by the time he has fair
ly entered on his subject he has his
feet on the rounds Of your chair, his
elbow on your desk and is dropping
the ashes from his cigar on your coat
sleeve. 1t would be just as easy for
him to make his speech or preach his
sermon three or four feet away, but
he never learns that fact and damages
his own cause by dragging his chair
over your carpet and putting his breath
In your face.
II know one office man in town who
got 80 tired Of having cigar ashes on
his clothes and smoke poured into his
face that he called a carpenter, took
the rollers off one chair, placed It in
convenient position at the end Of his
desk, then had the man nail 1t to the
floor. But 1t didn't do a particle of
good. The first hitcher that came in
was a big, strong 200 FOUNDER, who
began his talk and, growing earnest,
just pulled the chair up by the roots,
dragged 1t toward the desk and never
noticed that anything was wrong."-
