There is a clause in the confer- ence ryles that deprecates inter-sec- tional games wherein teams are re- quired to travel an appreciable dis- tance. But the distance is-not stip- ulated and at all events the para- graph is merely suggestive, not at ull mandatory, The big complication in this inter- sectional tendency Hes in the fact that there are ten members in the Western Conference and that if the constituent, colleges wish to con+ fine games to the organization—as some > outside rivals, inter- section or not, could be met. This fall, as an example, Minner sota hag been in three conference games and the Gophers do not {cel any too good about It. Other bis len élevens would like to have more conference games than their sched- ules show. ‘The situation, however, involves no-issue, sharp or other- wise; it 1s more a state of mind.
