| when the Maroons beat Northwestern
"a to although there were some who
did not think the score would be so
large in favor of Chicago.
An incident happened in the strug-
gle which probably is unparalleled in
western football and goes to show
the true craftsmanship, Of A. "A.
Stage In the first half, after the
teams had struggled valiantly for Is
minutes. Northwestern finally OBJ
tanned possession of the ball on its
16-yard line. The Purple could not
gain, and Schultz. the North siders'
quarterback, dropped back for a punt.
He got the attempt away clean and
It landed safely in the arms of Page,
the Maroon quarter.
The captain had no sooner caught
the ball than he took a running kick
at the oval and sent it far and high
over the heads Of the Purple backs.
The Maroon nnemen, according to q
signal, were down under the kick, and

" touched by a Northwestern player
In the meantime the Northwestern
rooters were shouting to have Stage
put off the field. Little did they know
that the Maroon coach was doing a
good turn for them and perhaps they
do not realize 1t at this time.
With the growth of the modern
school of football there have been
many changes as to the relative i'm.
portance Of the several positions.
Under the new system of football the
end rush is the most important man
! on the team. The only possible ex-
ception is the position Of quarter
back. The latter must evolve the
play that is to come, and It is up to
the end rush to put 1t into execution.
Formerly most Of these duties fell
upon the half backs, and the back
Held was considered the most import
ant department. If the players were
still permitted to formulate mass
plays the back field would still be the
more important, but the end rush is
the man on whom all teams must de-
pend for success under the present
system.
AS a matter of fact, there is no
longer such q thing as a right half
back OF. q left half back They are
merely members Of the back field.
II the old days the backs stood In q
line parallel to the linesmen.. The
fun back was In the center and the
half backs were on each side of him.
That is where they got their names
of right and left half backs. As the
teams line up to-day the backs stand
In q row. which is at right angie to
the regular line, and consequently,
there is no right and left. In the
signals they are known as Back /
and Back 2. r. ri ~ ~
There are many reasons why the
end should have superseded the half
back as position OF importance. In
the old days Of mass plays the ends
rarely ever got chance 10 get in the
play before the runner was tearing
into the line that II, when they were

FOOTBALL SEASON
COMES TO CLOSE
YEAR OF SURPRISES ON THE
GRiDIRON ENDS IN EAST
AND WEST.
Wolverines ARE HUMBLED
Defeat Of Michigan by Notre Dame
One Of the Unexpected Results
staos Displays True sportsmanship
importance of the Ends.

The football season has closed and
until spring when baseball games be-
gin indoor sports will have full sway.
There are a few golf enthusiasts
who will stick to the links until snow
covers the greens, but the champions
will not be seen on the course again
until the birds begin to come north.
The surprises that have marked
football in 1909 were increased when
Michigan was humbled by Notre Dame
with a IL to 3 score. Although it
was evident that Yost didn't have as
strong team as has represented Ann
Arbor in former years and it was
known that Frank Longman's Notre
Dame eleven was the best that col
lege has had in years the score was
unexpected.
Blame for the defeat of the Wolver-
ines at first was placed on Wasmund,
but Capt. Allerdice quickly came to
the front and exonerated the quarter
back.
Whatever error of judgment was
committed" said the leader of the
Wolverines, was my error and not
Wasmunds. The defeat hurt, of
course, and probably feel more bad
ly about it than any one else. I
thought the place kick was the proper
play and tried it. 1t failed and we
lost. Wasmund was in no way to
blame"
The quarterback wanted to send
Magidsohn through Casey, but Capt.
Allerdice and Benbrook protested and
Washmund unwillingly changed the
sign.
Had Wasmund's plan been carried
out, it is figured that the score would
have been to in Michigan's favor.
1t is not improbable that the injury to
Borleske had much to do with the
result. His collar bone was broken
and he was forced to retire from the
game. Borleske had shown himself
the best end Yost has developed since
the days of Redden and the team was
weakened with him out of the game.

THE TEACHERS MEET.

Pursuant to the call of the su-
perintendent, nearly all of the pa
risb corps Of teachers met at the
st. Martinville High School on Sa-
turday last. Tho purpose of the
meeting was to discuss the now
textbooks, the new Course of Stu
dy, and the new school records.
The superintendent took occasion
to give instructions regarding the
enforcement of school laws with
which to teacher is directly con-
cerned.
Miss Fullerton, the new super
visor of Singing and Drawing, gave
outlines for the work in singing,
drawing, and constructive work,
and particularly gave instructions
for doing this work on a small
scale in the rural schools. This
constructive work will be under

course in Sowing is strongly urg-

grade, and an outline Was given
for this work.
The teachers were then told IF
the enthusiasm aroused in the pa
rish by the work Of the members
of the Corn Club. The
interest in this work has far
exceeded expectations, and results
have been really surprising. All
teachers were urged to foster and
maintain this interest. and to give
the boys instructions on corn judy
ing,-in fact to go over with them
and explain the bulletin on Corn
issued by the State Experimental
station in order that the members
might know how to select their
corn for exhibit at the Breaux
Bridge Fair. 1t is generally con-
ceeded that no finer corn has been
raised in the parish than that
which the Boys Corn Club has
produced.

Rice a Paying Crop.

The rice crop just harvested by
the Conrads on the Rousseau plan
tation shows what money there is
in a rice crop. This plantation
WAS taken in bad shape last winter
and made ready for rice crop
which was planted this Spring,
some three hundred acres. and the
result of this crop was entirely sa-
tisfactory, clearing more than ten
thousand dollars.
We have here in st. Martin pa
IRISH tho best rice lands to be found
anywhere. they are now easily
drained, by now canals, easily irri-
gated aud retain the water we'll.
Thess lands will always produce
the first year from fifteen to eigh-
teen barrele; the second and third
years produce less, but the second
year can be planted in corn, make
a good crop aud the third year is
again ready to produce another
crop of rice of fifteen to eighteen
barrels and SO on. Any planter,
in our rice sections who will Guilt
vate half his lands in rice and the
other in corn, can always make a
success of his crops, and we be-
lieve obtain better result from
these crops than from any other
crops.
There are near St. MartinvilIe
several thousands acres of land
that are well suited for the cult
walton Of rice. The whole of il
could lie cultivated in rice this
coming season.
