Report on Waterways.

eminent has no right or interest in
navigable waters which would auth
orize a collection of tolls. The COM

the object of a railroad in reduced

# Defense Of Football

Football EleOen

AouaooeopS OF think the football rules should receive a thorough revt.
Q z sion? Well, G. Each year will bring in Its train some grad.
g W 8 ual change which will assist materially in making the game
ID z faster and cleaner. TIE new rules which were enforced for
3 the first time in 1906 have caused a greater revolution in
9.n.nnnnnS football than is generally realized.
SS' One not well versed in the tactics Of football can sec
$AnnnnAna$ but little difference. but to the trained eye the game has
undergone q absolute change for the better. In Its infancy
football held out but few restrictions. The players did a1noSt as they pleased,
and the result was the game made for Itself many enemies.
The players went through the contests in those days with locked arms
and elbows and the iayodte plays were massed against an objective centre.
The one point In view being wearing down the opposing Enemen. The OPP
posing lines now have a neutral zone of a foot between them, thus allowing
the officials to see any infringement Of the rules The Use of locked arms and
hands is absolutely forbidden. t4s4
Skill Is taking the place Of brute force. Football today Is as a game OF
human checkers. here each play is planned and every mistake costly. Each
year the rules committee will tag o changes which benefit the game and
the players will gradually become more proficient at the new style OF play.
Football Is sn In Its infancy, however. and can weather whatever changes
