FOOT BALL CURB URGED
BY HEAD OF DARTMOUTH

| by friendly associates, most of whom
are former foot ball players.
Admitting that no single college
could of itself radically transform the
existing evils OF the game, President
Hopkins suggested that a start might
be made If, without formal organiza-
ton, limited number Of colleges in
the East should accept the general
specifica tons. Harvard, Yale. Cornell,
Princeton, Pennsylvania and Brown
were mentioned as possible com
ponents OF the group beside Dart
mouth.
He said that, although he did not
feel that the worst that had been
alleged against college foot ball was
necessarily true, tendencies toward
such conditions are more rapid than
commonly recognized, and / believe
that intercollegiate foot ball is in a
more hazardous position than is gen.
orally supposed among its friends"
In celebrating the two.varsity tea m
! plan, Mr.. Hopkins suggested that the
major games be arranged on re-
| ciprocal basis. by which each college
should develop from the varsity
squad two major teams. one Of which
should play at home and the other
of which should play on rival grid.

ball circles on a revolutionary
plan Of reform proposed by President
Ernest Martin Hopkins.
He suggested limitation Of players

would give each college two varsity
teams for major games and would
put all coaching in the hands Of un-
