FOOTBALL AS PLAYED
IN YE OLDEN TIME

AS far back as 1888 the question Of
brutality was under discussion. The
following is an extract from Ana
tonne of Abuses" by Philip Stubbs
printed in London in 1888:
For as concerning football play, 1
protest unto you it may rather be call
ed FRIENDLY kinde of fight than a play
or recreation; a bloody and murther-
ing practice than a felowly sporte or
pastime For dooth not every one lye
in Waight for his adversarie, seeking
TO overthrow him and to pickle him on
his nose, though il be upon hard
stones? IN ditch or dale, IN valley or
hill. or what place soever II be, he
careth not. SO he have him down. And
he that can serve the most in this fash
ion. he is counted the only fellow. and
who but he? So by this means some
time their legs. sometime their armes.
sometime one part thrust out Of joint.
sometime an other sometime the noses
gush out with blood. sometime their
eyes start out. and sometime hurt In
one place, sometime in another.

MANY UPSETS
ARE EXPECTED
New Football Rules Give Small
er Colleges Chance to Win

For many years 1t has been contend
ed that small college had no chance
against a large university on the foot
ball field so long as the game was
played under the old rules. The num-
Der OF men that reported for one or
the larger teams In good many cases
were even more than the entire stu
dent body at small school. Then
there was the high grade coaching sys-
tenn as well as a method of play pecul-
lar to each of the larger institutions
that meant humiliation of the smaller
teams.
1t had often been said that the larger
colleges refused TO change the playing
code because they saw their prestige
would be affected under other rules.
In other games. such as basketball.
hockey, lacrosse and even baseball, the
championship each year does not al

and II was argued that under the rules
that would give the little fellows fair
chance with the big boys and there
would be many upsets on the gridirOn

University Of Pennsylvania In a hard
fought game. 1t was the new rules
that did the trick. and 1t Is the new
rules that are going 10 work havoc
among the larger colleges this year.
In the days Of mass plays and heavy
interference IL was impossible for

Of more than one season and all with

sons Of hard work either on the var
sity or the scrubs, were more than
enough 10 defeat light lot of half
trained players from smaller col
lege.
Things, however. are different this
year. What can and what cannot be
done under the new rules is still a
mystery. and the larger colleges are as
greatly handicapped as their smaller
brothers. In fact, there is a growing
impression that the larger colleges are
working under a bigger disadvantage
than are the minor institutions. Their
players have first to forget what they
knew about the old game before they
can learn the new sport.
The Washington herald., 1910-10-23

provided the teams when they show up
do not put UP a style of play entirely
different from that expected That is a
part Of the strategy Of the game. The
styles of play of the various coaches Of
the leading teams get to be known;
hence it is not difficult 10 organize a
defense against any particular coach.
Coaches expect this and endeavor TO de-
Yelop new tricks In order to strike the
opposing team in an unexpected quar-
ter where he has prepared no defense.
From this the reasons for secret prac-
tice may be readily seen. To let every
one into the grounds while new plays
were being practiced would be to in

NEW ENGLAND SENTIMENT.

There is a widespread feeling, in
which thousands of republicans share,
that the democratic victories of last
month are an excellent thing for the
country. The striking victory of Mr.
Foss, as democratic candidate for
governor of Massachusetts, was not
a merely personal affair. Governor
Draper had made an excellent execu-
tive, and the voters ere not ex-
pressing disapproval of him. New
England desires tariff reciprocity with
Canada and policies more progressive
than those th2t the Republican party
at Washington has made its OWL in
recent years. The earlier democratic
victory in Maine was merely a fore
%shadowing of what Massachusetts did
last month. Republican success in
New Hampshire, where Mr.. Bass was
elected governor by a good majority,
a be attributed to the fact that this
progressive young republican was
nominated as the result Of a prelim-
mary party housekeeping. Although
Rhode Island was carried by the re-
p%ublicans, it should not be overlook
ed that the moral victory was with
the democrats. This is readily seen
when one remembers that last year
Governor Pothier carried the state by
a majority Of about 10000, while this
year his majority is less than 1000.
When n further keeps in mind the
total population of the state, it will
be seen that the s%hrinkage of the
republican vote in Rhode Island is in
c~omparably greater than that in New
York. Thus the people who have been
81 eager TO say that Roosevelt was
rebuked by the Democratic victory in
New York should be candid enough
to admit that Senator Hale was far
more decisively rebuked by the demo-
cratic victory in Maine, that Senator
Aldrich was likewise rebuked by the
falling off in Rhode Islands plurality,
that Senator Lodge, by inference, vas
repudiated in Massachusetts,, and that
Senator Bukleley vas un%sparingly
condemned in Connecticut. Owing to
the peculiar system of representation
in New England, the republicans of
the Massachusetts legislature will be
in sufficient majority to give Senator
Lodge another term. But a number
Of them are opposed to Mr.. Lodge,
and II they should combine with the
democrats 1t is possible. though IN
likely, that Mr.. Lodge may lose his
seat.-From "The Progress Of the
World" In the American Review Of
Reviews for November.
