MODERN FOOTBALL HAS EDGE
Players of Today Are Far More Ver-
satiIe Than Those of Several
Seasons Back.

Modern football with its open run
ming and passing has got the old bone
crushing game backed off the boards
according to Big Bill Edwards. He
says:
Speed and accuracy is the keynote
Of the modern game. Players of to-
day are far more versatile than those
of my time. The best teams now
have complex plays. An eleven with
well-rounded offense will probably
have so plays. My championship
Princeton team had 20 plays. Players
today have much more to do with the
addition of open play and forward
passing. The stars are of the smaller
type, but speedier and more versatile.
In my day we seldom saw the ball ex-
cept when 1t was kicked. We only
had to guard our position, but that
was some undertaking when giants
were brought against US. The line
men now tip under 200 pounds be-
cause of the altered nature of the
game. I'm sure the guards now could
not stand up against the old-time
rushes. I weighed 265 pounds. 1t was
q case of the f1ttest in those days. We
didn't know what rowing centers were
then. The tremendous crowds and
widespread interest in the game now
is sufficient proof that football has
changed for the best"

Boy Scouts of America)
SCOUTS IN WINTER CAMP

That camping with the boy scouts
has ushered in a new era is evidenced
by the vast interest shown in winter
camping as opposed to the ordinary
summer camp conducted during the
long school vacation period.
Last season over 100000 boy
scouts in more than $4,000 neighbor-
hood group camps of boy scouts
learned the ways of the woods, and
by so doing have new interest to lead
them again into the great out of doors.
These youthful "Nimrods," in their
enthusiasm fo1 the conquest Of the
wonderland thus revealed, will in great
er number this winter continue the
camping program in broken doses. so
to speak, on weekend and vacation
throughout the days of the whole win
ter season, and grown-ups will wonder
why they didn't discover similar plan

where they walk, but they, too, are
conspicuous by their absence after No

in winter camps, although a few OF
US are hardy enough to dive in even
when it is necessary to break the ice
on the old swimmin' hole. Winter
gives snow and ice which helps US to
forget swimming, anyhow, and re-
lieve our parents of much of the worry

AMERICAN SHOOTERS
PROVE SUPERIORITY
Records Made in Olympic Games
Over Other Nations.
RIflemen From This Country Won
Every Event but One and In That
They Tied for First Honors-
Won Two Second Places.

United States rifiemen in the
Olympic games in Belgium scored 43
points. The rifle shots representing
ID other nations scored only At points.
This proves conclusively the superior
ity of American marksmen.
American rifiemen won every event
but one, and in that one they tied for
first place. Not only that, but they
won two second places and three third
places and in one event they won first,
second and third-and this against the
pick Of the riflemen of the world
The trapshooters representing Uncle
Sam showed representatives of Eu-
rope In the Olympic games how scat
terguns should be used, when they
won the first five places in the trap
shooting championship, and every man
on the American team was higher
than the highest shooter on any other
team in the team competition.
Then the rifle shooters did the rest.
Commander Osburn won the indi-
vidual championship at 300 meters
and Lieutenant Spooner won the
championship at 600 meters. Sergeant
Fisher of the Marines won the indi-
vidual championship with all kinds of
firearms. The free-for-all style of
shooting, and the team matches at
800 and 600 meters were all won by
the United States teams. The small
bore championship was also won by

has been returned victor in so many
of his contests on this side of the wa
ter for the last five years that it was
almost foregone conclusion that he
would win every race he went into, no
matter what the distance or who his
competitors.
Joie has had things pretty much his
own way in the mile game in America.
He has won about every indoor and
outdoor classic over the distance from
one end of the country to the other.
He has been thought to have no equal,
and his many victories over the coun-

This new development in outdoor

even difficult tasks in scouting and

by scouts as an all-year-round game

have camped the calendar through
