Favorable Comment.

The action of the faculty has been ia
yorabIy commented on by large num-
Der of the students, who. though they
oppose the abolition OF the old game. yet
feel that the development Of a soccer
team will greatly compensate for the loss
of Rugby. Their opinion is greatly
strengthened by the fact that legislation
in a number Of states may yet compel
other schools to follow in the wake Of
GEORGETOWN. and hence a worthy soccer
schedule may be arranged for another
season. $50.
Soccer has met with great success in
California and the other coast states.
where it has been played for three years.
Already the students of the Pacific coast
educational institutions have developed
into proficient players and the rivalry be-
tween various institutions has reached
fully as high a pitch as it was when the
Rugby game was the major branch of
sport. The game has, long been looked
upon In England as an ideal one and
many contests have been witnessed by
even larger crowds than what will watch
the Yale-Harvard battle next Saturday.
A phase of the game which Is worthy
of much notice is that 1t Is possible for
q small school to get out as capable

for institutions OF the size Of Georgetown
and Virginia, since no longer will il be
possible for the larger institutions of the
east to force their dictates ON their SMALL
er contemporaries.
As soon as plans at Georgetown have
been completed for holding the class
games, announcement of the dates will be
made i'm order that local followers Of the
school may have a chance to see the new
game played this fall.

Ii is now mooted question whether
or not Henry Smith. the negro who turn
ed states evidence against Calvin john
son, Richard Pines and Eugene Dorsey,
negroes convicted of the murder OF wal
ter r. Schultz. and respited until jan
uary IA next sor execution, Will be tried
at the December term of the corporation
court as planned. A we'll known attor-
ney this morning intimated that Smith
attorney, who will probably be assigned
to defend Smith, will probably ask the
court for an extension of time to pre-
pare his case and il is also pointed out
thar MANY witnesses in the case have for
some time past been out of the city.
These facts will in themselves, il is stat
ed, be suficient TO warrant the court
in granting a postponement of Smiths
case.
In view of the fact that one of the
principal pleas put before Gov. swanson
for an extension Of time for the con-
demned men was that Smith would be
tried at the December term or the cor
poration court, and II would be well TO
wait until after his trial to see what
would be the outcome, or IL any new evil
dence would develop. it is now a question
what action the governor would take. II
any, should Smith not be tried by Janu-
airy IA, the time to which the men are res
pited.
Another question that arises Is, would
the governor grant the men another res
pite?' These and many more questions
are being freely asked by the authorities
who worked on the case.

executive clemency will be extended the
