 It is probably unnecessary to announce that this step has become absolutely essential. The cost of everything which goes into the making of newspaper has increased enormously that slight increase in the price of the finished product to the subscriber will, doubt, be universally approved right and just. The Age-Herad feels that its readers will lend their cooperation and will meet this necessary situation in have been meeting all of the other requirements re- sultink from the war.

Of Possibility that Games

New York, Sept. 25.-Notwithstand-
ing the uncertainty regarding the ul-
innate attn Of football among the
eastern colleges, practice has been
started at a number of institutions
and present conditions would appear
to indicate a general carrying on of
the play, arranged for earlier in the
year. ENCOURAGEMENT is gained from
the fact that the leaders in the grid
iron activity FIRE the two government
academies at West Point and Annapo-
lis. 1t is the general opinion among
coaches and others interested in DOT
ball that if the Cadets and Middies,
with their intensive duties and train
ing. can find time for the game the
average student enrolled in the various
college S. A. 7. c.. will have similar
opportunities for indulging in the
sport.
Both the Navy and Army squads
have been practicing under competent
coaches for some time now, the num-
Der Of candidates averaging we'll over
the hundred mark. No attempt has
been made to curtail the schedules
and all games will be played as plan
ned, except where colleges engaged
have dropped football. These open
dates will be filled if opponents can
be secured. This, however, is not a
particularly easy task as both the

are a promising group and indications
point to a team which will approach
the high standard of 1917.
