D0B|E SAYS RULES
ARE PERFECT NOW
Former Aggie Coach Doesn't
: Believe in Making
Changes

University Of Washington. Seattle.
Dec. 9.-That football has nov reach
ed perfection and that there will be
no more radical change in rules. is
the opinion of Coach Gilmore Dobie.
tutor Of the indicated University of
Washington football squad and gra-
duate Of the Minnesota school of law.
He says:
American football as a game has
reached the point where any great
change in the rules would do inesti-
college sports. 1t is nov a sport that
develops the body and the brain to
the highest degree and provides that
element Of vigorous competition
which a young man meets when he
leaves college and gets out into life.
Time was when the backwoods
clod with lots of beef and bone could
leave the pillow and get on the varsity
football squad with little effort. II
fellows heavier than himself and will
ing to form the foundation for a
pyramid of waving arms. legs and
football paraphernalia, then all was
we'll. But there were too many &C
cidents and some deaths so reform
was started and football was reduce
ed finally to its present state.
Wnen peel was the whole thing.
fans could size up contestants and
Judge fairly accurately by compare
tive scores what the outcome Of q
game would be. The new game
makes an accurate estimation on this
basis impossible. It provides that
element of chance to football that IL
in baseball and the openness of play
makes the outcome extremely uncer-
tain.
IT do not believe that football will
ever become a national sport in the
fullest of the word. The sug-
gestlon hat the different conferences
might arrange a series Of national
contests to decide the football cham.
pionship Of the United States appeals
to me as a little absurd.
Football primarily rs a college
sport. designed to provide amusement
and to develop the men. It is not
played for money and I do not think
it will eyer be successful on that
basis. Long trips by the winning
conference university or the Pacific
coast to a big city in the east would
greatly interfere with the scholastic
work of the players and the expenses
would be great. The object Of foot
ball is not to win championships, any
way"

TOOK
-.... A RAP AT CAMP

Madison. Wis.,. Dec. Coach Rich
ards took a rap at Walter Camps Sc
lection of an ''all-American" team
when he stated that a western team
undoubtedly could be selected which
would be just as strong as that picked
by the casterner, who failed to place
a western man on his first team.
MANY Of the men who have picked
all-American elevens have not seen q
western team play this season, and as
a result are not competent to judge"
he said.
I'VE cannot expect football to be
developed In any part Of the country
SO long as the teams are required to
learn a new game every year." said
the coach in discussing the PROPOSE
ton made by several eastern coaches
to further change the rules. II am
opposed to my changes. I would like
to see the rules remain as they are
for several successive seasons. in or
der to give students Of the game an
opportunity to profit by experience.
If the rules committee breaks up the
present game to any large degree It
Is going to give college football a
handicap from which 1t will take sev-
cral seasons to recover"

MURPHY NOT o

Philadelphia Evening Times: 1t is
to be earnestly hoped that at the
meeting of the National league this
month in New York President Thom-
as J. Lynch will be reelected for his
third. term. There seems to abe a dis
position on the part of Horace Fogel
to side with those who would ac-
complish Lynch's downfall. Hor-
aces antagonism comes from the
mistaken idea that Lynch has been
opposed to the Phillies, and that he
has aimed to harm them whenever
the chance has offered itself. This
has not been s. In addition. Lynch
has stood for a clean game. one free
from all rowdy tactics. He has pro-
tected his umpires. perhaps a trile
too automatically. but this has been
more from a desire to help than to
assert his authority. Lynch should
he reelected for three years. and
thus take away from the position Of
president all that uneasiness that an
annual fight is bound to bring.

Ship Booze $4,000 Miles.

New York, Oct. 1.-Two hundred
barrels of the whiskey that made
Peoria famous is now on its way to
San francisco by way OF New York,
Rio Janeiro, Beunos 4yres, Cape
Horn, Valparaiso and up the Pacific
coast to the California metropolis.
The booze" will travel / ,00C miles
in all, but at a considerable snving
in freight over the rail rate from
Peoria to San Francisco, less than
2,00C miles.
The firm consiening the whiskey
TO its San Francisco branch has
made several such shipments. While
the plan would not work for rush
orders or perishablc goods, the whis
key improves with the passage Of
the time required FOR its $4,000 mile
journey, which is only little short
of the distance around the world
With the completion OF the Panama
canal distillery agents say practically
all the whiskey shipped from the cen
tral west TO the Pacific coast will go
over the water route.
