JOHNSON
AGAINST FOOTBALL
Claims That English Rugby Is
Far Ahead of the Ameri-
can Game.

CHICAGO, Dec. THE first pro
test against intercollegiate football
from professor Of the University Of
Chicago is made by Prof, Franklin w,
Johnson, dean of the university high
school, in the current School View, is
sued Monday.
In his article Professor Johnson de-
clares that English Rugby, fraught with
less danger, giving more PLAYERS
chance TO participate ani maintaining
cleaner standards of morality, is supc-
rior to the American game.
"Diflicultes arise from the financial
mismanagement of school athletics and
the low standards of craftsmanship pre-.
vailing,' says the article. Gone need
only visit the playing fields OF Rugby
on an afternoon of a half-boliday and
watch the boy athletes, 10 realize the
high standards of honesty ard sports
manship attainable which we hardly yet
dared hope for.

Mike Yokel, wrestling instructor of

wants To wrestle under conditions which

Yokel is TO meet some good outside man
