MORE REVISION NEEDED.
(From the Boston Journal.D

(From the Boston Journal)
We respectfully leave IT, to the foot
ball doctors TO prescribe for the game
In order to restore il TO its pristine glory
as one of the branches of athletic art.
There is no question about the game $
tremendous popularity The mighty
throng that saw Harvard and Yale bat
tie with each other is sufficient evidence
on that score. But neither is there any
doubt that the game can be made more
Interesting as a spectacle and more elias
tic as an art 1t is perfectly fair to say
that the game to-day Is not I test of
either individual or collective skin, nor a
test of training or endurance.
There Is no real team gain in the for
ward pass. The defense only gives the
men n chance to work with each other
The pass and the onslde kick have failed
to produce individual skill, and chopping
the two hours work into four periods
has nearly ended the test Of endurance.
The call for new revision is loud and
clear, and it does not come ny any means
alone from the spectators.

ROOSEVELT PIRLICITY.

Whatever opinion one may hold as
velt's remedies for the trust evil and
however we may regard his announce
ment that he will support no man for
the nomination in 1912. we must per
force recognize anew the fact that lie
is still a postmaster in the art Of pub
licity.
While Mr.. Roosevelt was an occu-
pant of the White House he knew un-
.rringly when to give sensational
announcement to the press to blanket
a statement by Governor Hughes, o.
some other public man.
He knew that the newspapers vera
less likely to have strikingly impor-
tant news on Monday morning than Oh
any other day in the week and the
date of his big news" was fixed ac-
cCrdingly.
To-day he seems to know precisely
when to advertise his newly sugar
coated antitrust pills to have them
swallowed with avidity by both trusts
md trust busters.
In short he has had no equal to our
knowledge in the science and art of
publicity, and to our mind this is
,nly one of his marked elements OF
greatness.
Meanwhile. we are impressed by the
Indications that Mr.. Roosevelt will not
'emove himself too far from the spot
where the presidential lightning Is
likely to strike in 1912
We attach no small importance 70
the fact that in his discussion of tn,
subject of his candidacy with the New
York World, he insisted that the in
terview should be given out in the
third person.
We find meaning in the fact that
while apparently renouncing the
presidency in 1912. he intimated that
he had received assurances of support
from a United States senator, a state
ment that would inevitably increase
discussion of his candidacy.
We see marked Significance that in
discussing present conditions the
Philadelphia North American was
forced to resort to an interview "A
year old.
II is strkingly worthy OF note that
from the time Mr.. Roosevelt told Sen
ator Lodge of Massachusetts, at Bev-
erly that he would evidently have to
take the nomination himself, down t.
the very present, practically every
important move by him and his closes;
friends has been in the direction OF
blocking the denomination of Presi-
dent Taft, who up to this time has
been the most likely republican can
didate.
Recalling the refusal of Mr.. Roose-
Welt to accept the vice presidency
which he later accepted with all Its
great possibilities. we incline on tn,
whole to the belief that he could b,
persuaded to take the nomination il
1912 II he thought the people needeC
