REAL FOOTBALL ON TOMORROW
Iowa to Play Minnesota; Wisconsin
VS.. Northwestern.

New York, Oct. 27:-The mid
season football games are now at
hand. Practically all OF the lead
ing teams have finished their So
called practice contests and will have
harder propositions to encounter
with each game to come. Tomorrow
promises much of interest," not only
in the East but in the West and
South as we'll.
Yale is the only big team that will
have a comparatively easy time,
meeting Colgate at New Haven.
Harvard will have formidable OPP
ponent in Brown and Princeton will
have to play some against Holy
Cross. Pennsylvania will meet Penn
State and Cornell will have the I'm
iversity of Pittsburgh for an oppon-
*ent.
Some pretty evenly balanced teams
will line up tomorrow in the middle
West. Missouri will journey to
Lincoln for game with the strong
Nebraska team and Minnesota and
Iowa will play their annual game at
Minneapolis. Wisconsin will have
Northwestern for an opponent and
Indiana will take on Washington
University. An intersectional con-
L, test will be furnished by the Michi-
gan-Vanderbilt game at Ann ArbOr
Among the Southern colleges some
interesting contests are in prospect
One of the most promising is that Of
George Tech and Alabama at Atlanta
The University of Georgia is to play
Mercer at Athens and the Univers-
ity of Tennessee is slated to meet the
North Carolina A. and M. at Raleigh.
The big game in Texas will be that
of the University Of Texas and the
University of Arkansas at Austin.

FORWARD PASS STAYS
This Play Expected to Be Of
Great Importance.
FOR Those Teams Which Have no
Fold Goal Men the Tossing Be-
comes More and More Essen
tial-Rule Changes.

Forward passing is likely to be even
more important in football games this
year than ever before. according to
many critics, and will be the mainstay
OF q great many teams. Those squads
which have field goal kickers OF moro
than usual ability will be able to hus-
band their forward pass plays against
weaker opponents, relying upon the
ability of their kckers to give them
victories. For those which have no
field goal men, however, the tossing
becomes more and more important,
and the coaches who have these teams
will have their work cut out for them
In constantly developing plays with
which to mystify their opponents.
Only one important rule has been
made since last season. and this was
male with view of rendering the
forward pass more practicable play.
Under last years rules, the forward
pass had to be made from a point at
least five yards back of the line Of
'scrimmage and if uncompleted was
brought back to the point from which
the pass was made, the uncompleted
pass counting a down
Under the revised rule instead of
taking the ball back to the place from
which the pass was made the oval is
brought back to the place of the previ-
Gus down. AS the rule specifically re-
quires at least five yards back Of the
line scrimmage and as the point from
which the pass was made last year
averaged at least ten yards back Of
the line, it will be seen that In franz
ing the new rule the trainers of the
code removed a great ground loss pen
atty.
1t was expected last season that the
restrictions on the length of the for
ward pass would result in making the
play short lob instead of long over
head throw. but this was proved to be
wrong for the one variety of pass was
used with as much execution as the
other.
considered dead when it passes line
20 yards in advance Of the line of
scrimmage, but as the pass is usu-
ally made from a point at least eight
yards back of the line of scrimmage
the total forward progress of the ball
is from % to 30 yards, and even with
a more generous rule it is doubtful If
losses of more than this distance
would be attempted.
In the great majority of cases long
passes are shot out toward the ends
rather than directly over the line, and
1T is seldom pass is caught more
than ten yards beyond the line.
Both the long and short pass have
their good features to recommend them
to coaches, and it Is difficult to de-
eide which is the preferable. Neither
would be of any use were they not run
in deceptive manner, depending for
their effectiveness upon their unex-
pectedness. It is poor team that
could not stop a forward pass when
one is expected, for where there are
six men of the offensive team eligible
to receive the pass there are II on the
defense. In addition to this, the Of

OBJECTION.
GRANT

J. H. Grant, editor of the "Gray-
matter" the Socialist publication
which was discontinued about six
weeks ago, takes objection to the ar
ticle published in last evenings Pho
neer, which inferred that the "Gray-
matter" had discontinued it's pub1ica-
ton, and that the new paper
"Thought" will take it's place.
He wishes it understood that the
new publication is the effort of indi-
viduals and not an enterprise con-
nected with the Socialist local of Be-
midi, and that it is being published
to fill in vacancy temporarily caus-
ed by the non-appearance of the

Editor Of Graymatter Says

''In order to affect a more con-
certed organization of our Socialist
publication, that will give us such a
better and concrete foundation, it
has been necessary for me to throw
so much of my efforts in other direc-
tons that it necessitated the discon-
tinuing of the publication of Gray
matter for few weeks.
"The possibilities of organizing a
strong local publication is much
better than it was year ago, and |
trust that the fact that Graymatter
has not appeared for few weeks
will not cause it's sympathizers any
great annoyance regarding it's well
fare, for we assure you that we are
all active and at all times LOOKING
for better and ,firmer oceans of pro-

EVIDENTLY SHE WAS ANNOYED
Good Wife's Punishment, Intended for
Husband, Poor Compensation
TO RevivaIist.

A popular r~evivalist had been hold
Ing services at a town in Mississippi
when a heavy rain came on, and he
accepted an invitation to pass the
night at the house Of one Of the
townsmen. Observing the preachers
drenched clothing, the host brought
out a suit Of his own and sent his
guest upstairs to don 1t.
The good man had made the change
and was on his way back to the sit
ting room, when the woman Of the
house came out of another room, hold
ing in her hands the big family Bible,
out OF which the minister was to be
invited to hear a chapter before the
family went to bed.
She was not, however, in a very
amiable frame Of mind, for careful
housewives are likely to be put out
Of sorts by the advent Of unexpected
company. Seeing the r~evivalist in his
borrowed garments, she mistook him
for her husband, and as he passed in
front of her she lifted the book and
brought it down sharply on his head
"There!" she exclaimed. Take
that for asking him to stay all night
