WOULD REVISE RULES
OF FOOTBALL GAME
COACH STAGG ADVISES HIGH
SCHOOL CHANGE RULES
Would Shorten Halves to 20 Minutes
and Prevent Games Between
Teams UneVenIy
Matched

CHICAGO, Feb. 8.-High school FOOT
ball will undergo a thorough revision,
if the ideas of Coach Stagg Of the
University of Chicago prevail at the
next meeting of the national rules
body on March 25. Stagg arrived from
New York yesterday and told what he
will attempt as a member of the spe-
cial subcommittee appointed to draw
up suggestions for the prep school,
game.
At present Stagg has three definite
notions about evils of the game as
played in high schools, and his solu-
tions are these:
Require a medical examination of all
athletes who participate in a high
school or club game before they are
permitted to play.
Shorten the halves to twenty minutes,
or make four quarters of ten minutes
each, with five minutes intermission.
Prevent games between palpably un-
evenly matched high schools, and
abolish games between high schools
and universities.

questing the Amateur Athletic union
to censure the Missouri Athletic club
of st. Louis for rough tactics in water
polo was adopted last night at a
meeting of the athletic board of the

ers, they were subjected to unfair
treatment. A resolution will be drawn
up today to be presented to President

EXORBITANT BOND
IMPOSED ON COOK

GUADALAJARA, Mex, Feb. S.-The
prosecuting attorney in the third crimi-
nal court tonight fixed the bond Of
James A. Cook, an American conduc-
tor, at $4,000.
The amount of the bond is consid-
cred by Cook and his friends to be un-
reasonably high, in view of what they
claim to be the light nature of the
charge against him. officers of the
Guadalajara division of the Order of
Railway Conductors are unable to
say whether the bond can be obtained.
A review of the case will be opened
in the third criminal court soon, rea-
sons for the indictment against Cook
advanced evidence for the defense ad-
mitted, and arguments heard by the
court. The judge, after hearing the
oral examination, and arguments of the
attorney for Cook, as we'll as the prose-
cutting attorney, may reduce the term
of sentence asked for, or even acquit
the prisoner.
If sentenced, Cook will be entitled to
appeal to a higher court.
That he will take such action If
sentence is pronounced is certain.

EASY MONEY DISCOVERED
BY GOLF PROFESSIONALS

NEW YORK, Feb. S.-There are six
professional golfers in this country
whose combined savings exceed $1,000
900. Alex Findlay, the well known
golfer, is authority for this statemens.
He does not name the fortunate sex
tet. He says:
"The professionals are a canny lot
and most of them have sense enough
to put by a large share of their money.
And some of them gather in a large
sum each season. For example, there
is professional at Pinehurst who gets
so an hour for teaching and has three
or four men helping him. He sells
5000 clubs a year, and his repair bill
is large. Then, I know several men
who have taught big financiers and
have benefited by stock market sug-
gestions which they have received.
You can see for yourself that golf
is by no means an underpaid busi-
ness"

STILL AFTER JOHNSON

NEW YORK, Feb. 8.-The fear that
criminal court proceedings may inter-

the prize ring July was intensified
today, when Justice Goff granted the
district attorneys motion to strike the
charge of assault against Johnson
from the present calendar Johnson's
lawyer protested, saying his client de-
sired an immediate trial, but the dis
trict attorney said he had not had time
to prepare the case, and it went over
to the next calendar. The prosecution
declares it has a strong case and will
not accept a compromise.
