teams are using this play with con-
siderable regularity.
The open game speeds the game
and it has robbed football OF much of
its former danger to combatants. The
old style game consisted in the main
of line plunging-of drives at center
against the tackles and against the
guards All these were mass plays,
and no matter how weak the offensive
line or how powerful the opposition
backfield very few teams were able
to average better than three yards
on a drive at the line.
Under the new system, with the for.
ward pass and the double and triple
passes permissible, gains of anywhere
from ten to forty Yards are possible
in one play. Yale. by the use of the
double and triple pass and by the
occasional use of forward pass often
made gains of 20 and 25 wards against
Notre Dame. It was the use Of the
plays that won for Yale in that game
and it was because Washington and
Jefferson was more expert in those
new plays than Yale that gave the
Washington and Jefferson team its vic
tory over Yale.

THREE in LIMBO;
BURGLARY CHARGE

When the proprietor of the Public
Drug store quietly called IN Police
Officer T. A. Bird and told him his
store had Deen robbed he laid the
foundation for as smooth a piece Of
detective work as has Leen pulled off
III many months Drugs, pipes, drug
sundries, ETC., were missing and no
clue to the thief or thieves. Officer
Bird noticed a puhfec' gent of color at
the depot smoking a new meerschaum
pipe worth more than the colored gen
tleman's fashionable habiliments.
Where did he get it? He also noticed
an unusual display of sundry articles
among the denizens of South Town. ="
Where did they get them? There was
also an unusual display Of cigarette
and cigar holders along the great
white way" Where did they come
from?
Officer Bird by close questioning Of
different parties possessing these arti-
cles learned that the person from
whom the various articles were pur-
chased, had a still further supply. His
Investigations led directly to Sylves-
ter Jacobs, a former employe of the
drug store.
Jacobs was placed under arrest on
the charge of burglary. Then the chain
broke and Harvey Smith and Dan Kel-
ley were arrested and locked up. Smith
and Kelley confessed to their part IN
the crime and pleaded guilty at their
preliminary trial. Jacobs comes up
for trial on the charge of burglary the
latter part of this week and will be
confronted with the confessions of the
other two boys Officer Bird has Sc

Football has been lifted from a
game that lacked the spectacular to
a game that is filled with the spec
tacular by the almost universal adop-
tion this year of the open style game.
In other years, when line-smashing
ruled, the game had few real thrills
for the spectators. They would see
the teams line up and then they would
see % men pile one on top of the
other. The same thing would be re-
peated time and again, with a varia-
ton now and then with an end run.
But there was no open playing. All
Of the playing was done by q massed
crowd Of players Very often the
players were grouped together so
closely that the spectators could not
see the ball passed.
But this year, with lateral passes.
double passes, triple passes, forward
passes and other trick plays predomi-
mating, the game has been lifted to a
point where the spectators can see
nearly everything that is going on.
There is not prettier play, from the
spectators viewpoint, than a triple
pass, and most Of the big college
