first designating which captain shall
call. The winner of the toss shall
have the choice of goal, or of kick

which choice shall not be revOkablc.
she loser of the toss shall have the
choice of the options which the winner
does not select. These privileges as
to choice shall be reversed at the be-

This year the winner Of the toss
has the additional option Of re-
ceiving the kickoff in addition to
the choice of goal or Of making
the kickoff.

were also a feature. The Baptists
may surprise Wisconsin and give
the Badgers real battle. State
opposition, beware!
News dispatches state that
