TONIGHT, tomorrow and, in
some cases, tomorrow night,
i foot ball will begin to come
into it's own in all sections
of this broad land, as some of our
would-be best orators might de-
scribe these United States of
America.
True, most of the contests should
not excite any great amount of en-
thusiasm. but any lind of a gridiron
game this time of ycar is worth while.
And then, again, thr- = or four Of those
scheduled may take on much more
important aspects than now appears
probable
What should be the best game in
the East is that at Charleston, w. Va,
between Washington and Lee and West
Virginia tomorrow afternoon. The for
mer has, according to its own appraisal,
the best outlook that has enthused the
Lexington campus in years, while West
Virginia also should be stronger than
in 1882. The only reason that two such
elevens meet so early is a mix-up in
their schedules which prevented the
November or late October Gate they
always have had heretofore.
Open In Dixie Tonight.

schools under way, with the Bir-
mlngham-Southern eleven as its oppo-
nent. Other southern games are be-
tween Loyola and Hattiesburg Normal,

Among Saturdays games the closest
to Washington is at Baltimore, where

Herbert J. Campbell, editor and gen.
eral manager of the Evening Columbian,
Vancouver, Wash, has written The Star
suggesting a change in the rules OF
foot ball scoring which would prevent
tie games and also prevent schools
starting their second teams. His sug-
gestion is that Z point be given to the
team making the first three first downs.
Mr.. Campbell goes further and says
that if there were objection to the y
point, by scoring the touchdown as six
points, the goal after touchdown as two
points, the field goal as four points and
a safety as two points, one point could
be given to the team making the first
three downs and there could still be no
tie game AS a method of preventing
tie games Campbell's suggestion GER
tainly is Ingenious and worthy OF con-
sideration by the Rules Committee. 1t
is one of the few original suggestions
offered now days in foot ball.
