In Touch With Leaders.

AS soon as he was appointed, DR.
Sisson began an extensive correspon-
derce with educational leaders
throughout the whole country; by this
and other means a large number OF
available names have been collected.
At the last meeting of the board, on
October IL and IS, the whole matter
was discussed thoroughly and the COM
missioner was instructed to meet per-
sonally some of the most promising
men. He is now on a trip for this
purpose and for other business con-
nected with the work of the board.

cording. For this Part of the work,

pointed auditor; he is an experienced
accountant, and has special knowledge
of educational finance, having been for
some years secretary and purchasing

Look Over Institutions.

|
Immediately upon organization the
board began their work by acquainting
themselves with the institutions under
their charge They visited the univer-
sity, the two normal schools, the state
industrial training school, the academy
of Idaho, and the school for the deaf
and blind. At each of these institu-
| lions they based their actions upon
the plans already laid by the outgoing
| trustees, and at the same time began a
careful study of the whole educational
machinery of the state, to the end of
increasing harmony and efficiency
throughout the whole system.
One of the first tasks of the board
under the law was the selection of a
state commissioner of education, to act
as their professional adviser and chief
executive. They sought the counsel of
educators and other leaders
throughout the country, and can
vassed carefully the qualifications of a
great number of persons. Their final
choice was Dr. Edward o. Sisson, at
the time professor of education in |
Reed College, Portland, previously for !
some years director of the department |
of education at the University of
and at one time director
Of Bradley Polytechnic Institute at
Peoria, Illinois. DR.. Sisson was elect
ed on July 16, and began active serv-
ce on September LIST.
). Sisson Made Inspection.
The commissioner has already Wis
ted all the state educational institu-
ions, although these visits were ne
essarily short At each place con- :
erences were held with the head OF ,
he school, and recommendations r
rere made to the board, based on these .
differences. He has also attended the 7
esions of a number of the larger 8
)int institutes, addressing the teach
rs and also the general public al q
Disc, Twin Falls Occur d'Alene, Ida h
D Falls and Pocatello. BY means OF
lese institutes he has met the teach q
IS of 81 counties.
The most important Immediate task :
the board is the selection of a presi-

d energy, but in justice to the ex> J ne
edingly important work Of his own =

d for the sake of the institution as is
whole, the board earnestly desires ra
fill the vacant place. On the other V;
nd, they realize the immense i'm

iversity and to the state, and do not te
end to risk an error by making a IL;

CRIDIRON RULES
fine FOR Y0ST
Changes This Year Suit Condi-
tions at Michigan University

Coach Fielding Ii. Yost, of the VOL
VERNE football squad, is probably
having a quiet little laugh all to him
self as he maps new gridiron plays on
his checkedboard during the long trip
home from Europe.
They have changed the rules of the
This year the ball can be kicked from
any point back of the line of scrim-
mage, instead of five yards back as
formerly. To Yost this will be a reg
Ular find because this year he isn't
any more likely to have a combination
kicker and passer than he had in
Bottles Thompson during the 1912
season
Torbet is slated to do the heaving
for Michigan as his perfect throws in
the Cornell game makes it hard to
conceive the job being taken from
him. The chances are that there won't
be a puntcr on the squad that can
pass with his ability Had the rules
stayed the same the play SO far as
Nost's tricks were concerned, would
have again been handicapped.
In the Cornell game, Yost didn't pun
anything fancy because he had laid
out several of his trick plays with the
idea that the pass and punt should be
by the same man and from the same
formation. When Thompson failed To
show as passer, they were all off.
The coach had to let them go by.
But with the new rule there is
nothing to prevent a kick from the
same formation as pass even though
each must be done by a different man.
Such play was possible Of course
last year. but when the kick had to
make five yards back of the line and
the kicker couldn't pass, u forward
shot from that place usually went
wrong Now it will he possible to
play the punter UP a bit nearer the
line and the passcr back or just ths
opposite As long rs the kicker cau
get the boots away on short notice, h,
can he showed close to the line and
there is likely to bc n lot Of bootina

This feature of the game Is TN
thing Yost will go after. 1t has neNei
been his custom to put on great
