The present football season offers
a remarkable example of the all4round
Improvement made by the average col

gridiron strategy. A decade ago ut was
an extraordinary event when the minor
varsity team scored upon its bag uni
versity rival. Today the eleven which
can show a clean slate at the seasons
halfway mark is rarity. The radical
changes made in the rules during the
past few years is responsible to some
extent for this increase in scoring
power, but the fact remains that the
smaller college combination IS no long

institutions less than a dozen have

ballplayer would rather be considered

than to have his name emblazoned in

answer from a man Of their own trade.
For that reason the following all
