MINNEAPOLIS MINI, Jan. l2.-'F oo|
hsn ,s fas. becoming the national fall
spor. Of the American youth, wrote n
7. Williams ard 4. A. Stage in BOOK
on football published by them In 1898
The volume has been resurrecied os
followers of the sport here who point
To the t!meliness OF many passages set
down by the two Yale stars a quarter
of q century ago.
For seventeen years Stage. OF the
University OF Chicago, and Wliliams. OF
the University OF Minnesota have 'oeeh
training rival teams and have conIri-
ru-ed 10 the work of revising the whole
character Of the game.
When, as team mates. they prepared
their book or football. the hyins
wedge" was the tavorite weapon OF the
score makers ard it was TINS style o.
plav that for years made lie on the
gridiron unsafe and brought protests
which caused sharp changes IN the
game.
The book IS replete with such phrases
as center rusher,' "end-rusher' ana
soap-hack." To carry out success

s-ructea to form w. on the held at
the kickoff. Then the man RECEIVING
the ball would wait a moment 10 per

whole eleven would sWoop down the
field with the toughest chap OF the !o'

oval-bearere buried IN the center.
The following excerpts from the DOCK
include bits Of advice that are as Tune
~ today as when they were written:
Try to get the opposition Off searo
and score before two minutes OF the
game have been staged
| If you're hurt on a tackle, don't sho"
It. Get up briskly or they'll throw you
twice as hard next time.
The time for conversation with OPP
| ponents Is after the game.
Fast play is the most effective. Make
one play follow the other as rapidly a
possible.
When getting ready to tackle watch
the runners hips-they move the leas'
Go after the runner-don't wait 1or
| him.
| Knock tho runner towards his own
goal
If the opposition seems so powerful
YOU haven't a chance, keep playing
harder The rivals may loose star
by injury or ruling at any moment ano
YOUR chance may come.
Keep your eyes on the ball-always

May Abandon Track Meets.
Ann Arbor. Mich, Jan. l2.-Chances
for Michigan's track team taking part
in any eastern meet this spring are not
considered bright. n would not be
surprising. according to university au'
thorities, IL no big meets were held In
the east.
Information received here indicates
that Cornell. Swarthmore and Penn
State will close much earlier than usual
this year If the war is still on in May.
This, It is pointed out. would mean
that these colleges would not be rep

BREAKS A LEG AND
FREEZES TO DEATH.

Eric Carlson of Ishpeming, brother
of Mrs. Robert Lindahl of Skanee,
lost his life in the storm last Saturday
evening, while going from Ishpeming
to camp a short distance from his
home.
Carlson, who was thirty-seven years
of age, left the city during the fore
noon Saturday and went as far as
North Lake, where he was employed.
He planned to spend some time at his
camp and one of the shift bosses at
the North Lake mine decioed to ac-
company him.
They walked some distance and with
the storm increasing in violence all the
time, the shift boss decided to return
to the location. Carlson concluded that
he could get through and pushed on.
The road over which they were travel.
ing was in fairly good condition, but
Carlson was facing the wind, which
was blowing heavily and made difficult
travelling. When Carlson did not re-
turn to his home Sunday his relatives
and some of his friends started out to
look for him and found him cold in
death. Examination revealed the fact
that he had fallen over on his snow
shoes and broken his leg, which &C.
cident without doubt cost him his life.

writes the editor as follows:
Friend Ted:-
! suppose you have wondered where
I have gone and what am doing. To
start with, am back with the best
branch of service the United States

Marine Corps. Our motto is "Semper
Fidelis," so you can imagine what and
who we are.
I re-enlisted in st. Paul, Minn., a
year ago, Feb. /, 1917, and from there
went to Mare Island. California, and
was there for about week. Then l
was sent with six other men to estab-
lish marine guard for radio station
in Eureka, California. ! was sta
toned there for ten months and then
transferred back to Mare Island. A
detachment of marines left Mare Is
land in December for France and l
caught the detail, but we missed them
in Quantico, Virginia. They needed
marines up here to do guard duty and
as we had been doing this kind Of work
we were stuck.
l Isuppose you remember reading of
"Rose" Island, where old Fort Ham
iton" was-that is just exactly where
we are.
O, yes. I almost forgot to tell you l
got married last December in Eureka,
California. The wife is with me now
and everything is lovely.
