.NeLO Plan Would
Leave No Doubt as
to Big Ten CrOlUn
Best Teams Could Be Matched
on Last Saturday of
Season.
By WALTER ECKERSALL.
On the Chicago Tribune1

When football coaches and athletic d.
rectors Of Western conference univer-
stiles gather In Chicago Dec. to ar
range schedules for the 1922 gridiron
season, efforts should be made to arrange
states in such a manner that an undis-
puted champion can be determined:
Edward H. Lauer, an alumnus Of Mich
igan, has offered a proposition which is
worthy Of the consideration of those in
charge OF football at the Conference IN
situations. Lauer suggests that the last
Saturday, the one before Thanksgiving
day, be left open. a meeting Of all
coaches can be held a week in advance
Of this date to arrange drawings between
teams entitled to the highest ranking In
the Conference.
One can easily see how satisfactory
such a scheme would be this season, with
Iowa and Ohio tied for honors. Sup
pOrters Of both institutions are laying
claims to the champions but If
Lauer's scheme were in effect the cham
picnship struggle would be decided in
either Columbus or Iowa City tomorrow.
The suggestion Of the Michigan alum
nus would In no way prevent the SEIZED
uling Of the usual number of games.
Six contests could be arranged at ne
Dec. meeting and a seventh strLG lie
determined at the meeting Of foot all
coaches or their representatives on ihe
second Saturday before Thanksgiving
day to determine the elevens which win
struggle for not only the title but for
places in the final rating.
The suggestion, however, will meet
with serious opposition. Certain elevens
in the Conference will Aot play others
regardless Of the rule which suggests
each Big Ten eleven play at least four
contests with other members Of the assO-
citation and rotate in such a manner that
in the course Of every few years all are
met
Some coaches or athletic directors will
assert II is contrary t. the spirit of the
Conference to determine champions ara
that the adoption Of Lauer's suggestion
or any other would be a deliberate at
tempt to beat the existing rule. However,
1t is time some of the time honored edicts
Of the Conference are changed and teams
and individuals given a chance to demon
strate supremacy in either post season
games or struggles arranged by agree
ment before the end Of the playing sea-
son.
