Spring Foot Ball
Finds High Favor
IN Iowa Colleges
Prospective Candidates Are Eager to
Try Out Proposed Changes in
the Rules.

IOWA CITY. Ia, April 2-(Special)--
Spring foot ball promises to find high favor
among the colleges In Iowa this year be-
cause of the opportunity to learn the
changes in the rules before the fall prac-
tlce season opens ip September.
Already Drake university at Des Moines
under the tutelage of Captain Elect Jim"
Wilson Is experimenting with the sug-
gestons which will probably be passed on
April %. Coach John @. Griffith OF the
University OF Iowa has already consulted
with Captain Hyland relative to stiff
series of tri-weekly practices on the rules
as modified the last of this month. Coach
Clyde Williams at Ames and the coaches
of the smaller institutions in the state
are keeping close watch of the situation
with a view OF obtaining head start by
the spring practice.
At the present time coaches and play
ers are anxiously watching the reports
OF the changes and the usual discussion
containing adverse views and favorable
opinions has arisen. II is too early to tell
how the sentiment Of the state is on the
new game as outlined by the six changes
advocated by the rules committee in New
York
However, as soon as the rules are passed
and closely defined the coaches and play
ers expect to try them out thoroughly.
The month Of May and part OF June will be
given the squads for the experiments. The
usual handlcaps will be present in the
shape OF interest in the track and base
ball, but 1t is expected locally that the
changes in the rules will cause unusual at
tention to the gridiron game next month.

WallOp the ROurke Family in an Ex-
hibition Game at Vinton Park.
ALMOST A sLUaGNG MATCH
Ten Errors by Omaha Lose n Game
which started Out Like
victory for the
Foxea.

Don Despair, owner Of the Antelopes,
came up from Lincoln yesterday and hung
one over on Pa Rourks on his own lot
when he walloped his Colts in the first
conflict between these two teams this
year There were not enough Of the old
hickory TO prevent the slight slaughter
that the Antelopes slipped over.
The score was 19 to and in the estima-
tion OF one who stood on the outside Of
the fence It would look like a fine cleanup
had been pulled Off within the inclosure.
But Il Is not true. II was not n slaughter.
II was merely a game OF base ball in which
one team had lot Of veterans who we're
skilled in the game against bunch Of re-
cruits who we're a little frightened under
a heavy fire
And at that the recruits behaved pretty
we'll There were periods when Omaha dis
played quite a bit Of intelligence and got
away with lot OF plays that made them
good nthe eyes OF the little bunch of
fans which went out to the south side
park to look over the seasons first offer
ings.
Omaha used mostly recruits especially in
the box. Sindear, the big boned
pitcher who has been showing up SO good
In practice, opened the contest and for
three innings did well, not allowing a
safe hit. He permitted only two hits in
four innings, passed one and hit one. He
was relieved by Bovee, who gave one base
on balls and hit one by a pitched ball.
He did not strike out anyone. Ferry, an
other recruit, went in after Bovee finished
an dstruck out one man. He did not give
base on balls and had fair control.
Agnew the aspirant for a job as catcher
played third base and demonstrated that
he was there with the goods. He started
something in the first inning by knocking
a home run. He also flelded his position
well and demonstrated to the fans that he
is some player and is deserving Of more
than a brief mention.
St. Louis Jack Thomas was also there
with heavy stick for the Anteopes and
peeled of IA homer in the ninth.
King who arrived yesterday morning
from his home at Cowden, H., was in fair
shape. He demonstrated that he still had
his slugging eye and raped off a couple
OF two-baggers. He had seven chances in
the field and got away with six of them

Athletic Reforms
Popular in Iowa
Students Like Interdepartment, Inter
class and Interfraternity
Games.

IOWA CITY. Ia, April 2.-Cspecial)-
Colleges In the state Of Iowa are rapidly
swinging the reform axe in the develop
ment OF the interior athletic systems Of
their respective institutions, and, as re-
suit. the inter-class. inter-sOciety, inter-
fraternity, and inter-department base ball
leagues and track meets have received
tremendous boost this spring according 10
the home schedules OF the leading uniyersi-
ties and colleges.
Al Iowa college at Grinnell class games
have come into prominence more than ever
this year and almost the entire male popu-
latiou OF the student body will indulge In
base ball contests at some time or another
this spring. In this school the inter-class
phase Is most emphasized.
In the University Of Iowa base ball has
increased IN popularity, and under the in
centive created by the stirring attack on
intercollegiate athletics by Hon. James II.
terwln inter-department and inter-fra-
tcrnlty leagues have been launched with
much enthusiasm. Schedules have been
made out and so great has the demand
been for accommodations that the board
IN control OF athletics, has arranged for
the building OF a new base ball diamond
on Iowa field and il Is probable the sec
oud diamond used BY the fraternities on
the parade ground last year will again be
utilized by the numerous ball tossers who
are not skillful enough 10 make try for
the varsity. The criticism of the head OF
the board of education was that the pres
ent form OF athletics did not furnish hene-
m 20 the rank and file of the student body

STAGE ON THE new RULES
Chicago Athletic Director Maintains
Changes Are Good,
SAYS THEY LESSEN DANGER
Famous Player and Coach Asserts He
would Minimize Injuries and
still Keep Interest at
High Pitch.
AVS THEY LESSEN DANGER

A. A. Stage. athletic director at the
University of Chicago, and member OF
the intercollegiate foot ball rules COM
mittee, when interviewed in Omaha as to
his position in regard to the changes
In the foot ball rules for 1910 expressed
his satisfaction with the changes that
have been made.
Il believe that the changes made in the
foot ball rules for 1910 will benefit the
game" said Mr.. Stagg "Of course, the
future of the game will depend great
deal upon the results that obtain from
the changes. | voted for all the changes
that were suggested.
The idea in making the changes is to
lessen the danger Of the game and still
retain those spectacular features which
make foot ball fascinating. II is true that
the injuries to participants must be fewer
or there will be a widespread movement
for the abolishment OF the game"
"Is it not true that Chicago university
especially may benefit by the rule that
the quarterback will not have to run five
yards TO either side before he advances
the ball inasmuch as it has always been
your policy TO develop a fast quarterback
that could advance the ball when called
upon in a pinch?" Mr.. Stagg was asked.
well, Chicago may benefit by such a
rule, but so can other colleges, The idea
is to make a more open game which will
not lose any Of the interesting features
that make foot ball the greatest of col
lege games" was the reply,

Did Not OrIgiate Rule.

"And. by the way, do not quote me as
saying | am in favor Of the rule because
it may help my team The rule was not
suggested by me, but I gave it my hear
test approval.
But II such a rule were in force when
you had Eckersall and Steffen, would not
the University Of Chicago have had two
OF the best ground gamers in the coun-
try?" he was asked.
We'll, with such men as Eckersal and
Steffen as quarteroacks and a rule that
would allow them a wider range OF pos
slbilties for advancing the ball, It would
he almest impossible TO conceive OF a
situation more ideal for ground gaining
But please do not give the impression that
/ was the only one that was In favor OF
the rule All the members OF the com
mittee heartily endorsed such a rule In
the belief that II would give a quarter
back more opportunity and make the
game more interesting without increasing
the element Of danger.
The prohibition OF the flying tackle
viii also lessen the danger and Is a rule
OF which ] am IN favor. We want TO
keep the interest in college foot ball at
the high pitch which Il has attained IN
the last fifteen years and can only do so
By eliminating the danger as much as
possible.
Also a rule that a man is down when
any part OF his body other than his hands
and feet touches the ground Is something
that would lessen the danger and improve
the game. II would prevent the pilng on
OF players after man was down and
would do away with many OF the injuries
that result from that practice OF defensive
ball
THE intercollegiate foot ball rules COM
mittee Ii deslrous OF bringing about con
dltions that viii improve the game and
eliminate danger, and helieve has been
earnest in Its endeavor 90 DO so."

not have mercy, but II is true that

MEET IN CONGRESS AT ROME
international Gathering Of Foes Of Tu-
berculosls to Be Held Late In
September.

Official announcement OF the Seventh
International Congress on Tuberculo-
sis. which will include representatives
from every civilized country in the
world, has been made by the National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of tuberculosis. The congress
VIII be held In Rome from September
"a to 80, 1911, and will be similar In
many respects to that held in Wash
ington in the fall of 1908. The con-
gress. which meets every three years.
VIII be under the direct patronage Of
the king and queen of Italy.
An American committee of 100 will
be appointed as the official represen-
tatives of the United States. Mean
while the National Association for the
study and Prevention Of tuberculosis
is acting In that capacity and its Office
In New York will be the headquarters
for the United States delegation. The
secretary general of the congress Is
Prof. Vittorio Ascoli of Rome.
AS direct result OF the stimulus of
.he last international congress held I'm
this country, the American committee
will be able to report that the number
OF tuberculosis agencies In this coun-
try have been tripled in the three
years. More than twice as much
money is being spent In the fight
against tuberculosis by private socie-
ties and institutions, and the approprf-
atoms of federal, state. municipal and
county have increased nearly four
fold. 1t IL estimated that nearly $751;
100000 will be spent In antltuberculo-
sis work in 1910.

give one an ample choice-malines,
especially those that are waterproofed,
are very useful and the fashion OF
drawing maline over the feather trim
ming to keep it from blowing about
Is sensible and pretty as we'll as thor
oughly appreciated.
In fashioning the trimming for such
hat, folds and plaitings or other com
pact arrangements of the fabric used,
are altogether desirable for they are
not easily disarranged. The hats OF
silk braid and silk hats with velvet
facings are often simply trimmed with
big bows made of taffeta or corded
silk A single strip of silk is split
along the center, lengthwise hemmed
at the edges and stiffened by thrust
ing fine wire in the hens. A single
large NOW and collar made of two
yards OF silk, which makes a strip
four yards long, is all the trimming
required. It's great advantage lies IN
the fact that it may be taken off,
freshened. pressed and replaced ON
the hat.
There are any number of pretty and
inexpensive fancy feathers to choose
from and they are all made from the
plumage of domestic fowls or birds
That we may use with a clear con-
science. Wings always make a smart
trimming and the big ornaments.
many OF them in Persian colorings
and designs, are destined to be a great
help to the amateur milliner in turn
ing out creditable and useful hat.
