6-Man Football Fails
To Gain D. c. Support
By GARRETT WATERS

What is this thing called Six
Man Football? How is it being
taken in the East-or to get even
closer, the District of Columbia?
How is it played? VIII it ever
gain a foothold here or anywhere;
will it, in several school and col
lege instances, push preSent-day
football into the background?
These and other questions are
being propounded every time you
turn around these days. And quite
naturally. For football is an in
tereSting topic of conversation at
the outset, but even more interest
ing when questions arise to pos
sible changes in its makeup.
Well, first, Six-Man Football is
not being received very enthuSias-
tica1ly here. Officials, faculty mem
bers, coaches and students are not
necessarily against the idea (they
see some merit in it), but they
can't conceive it fitting into the
local scholastic picture, which to-
day is as full as can be imagined.
SLX.MAN TEAM
For the smaller schools, they are
in full accord with the possibilities
and value Of the game. And in
some instances, they see where it
might be used in outdoor gym
classes. But to get to their actual

comes:
Pittsburgh may decline all offers
or bids to a post-SeaSon game in
California, New Orleans, Dallas,
Miami or where ever else there
may be such a scrap planned,
sealed and delivered New Year
Day.
HAGEN PLAN
The change in policy in regard
to post-season tilts is the result of
the recently instituted Hagen Plan
which went in effect at Pittsburgh
following the ousting of W. Don
Harrison, director Of athletics, last
spring, following the famous spend
ing money episode at Pasadena
the night of the 1887 Rose Bowl
classic.
Jim Hagen, former great
Panther backfield ace, who was
assistant to Harrison, moved up
to the athletic dictatorship and
Immediately put the plan into
effect.
What the Hagen plan amounts
to is turning over the burden
Of athletic scholarships to the
alumni, cutting down the grid
slate to eight games, tossing out
all intersectional games with the
exception of one (Nebraska), and
playing teams on the same scale
in regard to standards, student
enrolment and etc.
SAME SYSTEM
The same system is in vogue
in the socalled Ivy League.
First big series signed by Pitt
under the new arrangement Is
with Dartmouth.
Pitt is also slated for a series
with Ohio State of the Western
Conference, which embodies many
OF the Ivy League principles.
The Ivy League and the West
ern Conference veto Bowl bids
and play an eightgame slate.
The Panthers are clutching for
clinging vine tradition.
Therefore it is necessary that
Pitt continue in the Ivy direction,
which includes turning down all
poSt-seaSon games to build I'D
poSt-Season arguments.
NOT UNTIL 1910
The Hagen plan will not be In
complete force until 1910, at which
time schedule agreements and
other contracts arranged by the
Harrison regime have been full
filled.
Pittsburgh stopped off here for
a while yesterday, en- route to
Durham, and the possibility of the
Panthers turning down that $780,
200 was mosied about the gang
was in the air.
Jock Sutherland simply said
that 1t Is up to the boys-should
Pitt win, and the Panthers re-
ceive the bid.
But don't sell the Pitt bombshell
short.
