preaching Season

That autumn is not far distant Is brought
to mind with the appearance of the Spald-
ing Official Football Guide for the season
of 1916. Edited by Walter Camp, as usual,
the guide is replete with information con-
cernng the great collegiate fall pastme.
and presents information of interest to
every one who follows football, whether as
player or spectator.
Besides the official rules the contents
comprise Mr.. Camps All-American selec-
tion, with reviews OF last season from
various sections OF the country and indi-
vidual reports from the colleges. The sta
tistcal division comprises records Of last
season, dual series records from 1873 to
1916, and Park Davis compilations Of field
goals famous runs. team and individual
records. wich have been an important fea-
ture o former Guides.
Other departments in the Guide comprise
the official schedules Of the leading colleges
for 1916, captains, managers and coaches
for this season and lists OF games officials
as promulgated by the Central Board of
officials. Pictorally, the Guide measures
up to previous standards and probably no
greater indication of the progress that
foot ball is making can be better seen than
in the large number of illustrations of
teams as compared with those printed only
