MAKES SUGGESTION
FOR YALE FOOTBALL

New York. June 29.-Walter Camp.
dean of Yale football authorities, has
suggested that in order to settle the
question as to whether football shall
be played next autumn or not a Cir
cular letter be sent to graduates ask
ing them to subscribe for seats in case
they favor the retention of the game.
He explains that IL conditions should
be such as to prevent the contests
provision might be made that the
sums necessary to reserve seats could
be applied to other sources such as
the continuation of teachers salaries
by adopting this means" states
Mr.. Camp, the university authorities
would know positively what they can
afford to expend in preparation, and
in time to act understandingly, and
their word would be accepted loyalty
If they determined that conditions
in the autumn made it inadvisable to
have football. No one is desirOus of
forgetting the serious business at
hand, but a clearer understanding of
the situation would help on all sides.
The chances are that such a course
would clear the war for football and
general athletics of a character less
dependent upon large expenditures
but quite enough to furnish interest
and relaxation from what would
otherwise be too depressing in
flUencCS.
