No. 6—Slash Game. MERICAN college foot ball, with a record of experiencing more upheavals than any other sport except boxing, underwent a major operation between the seasons of 1905 and 1906. It took the form of drastic revisions in rules of play as well as eligibility, brought about by public criticism aimed chiefly at alleged brutalities. Such colleges as Columbia, North- western and Union dropped the sport altogether. California and Stanford substituted English rugby. The ma- jority of institutions, however, under excellent leadership, decided the game was too good to be dropped. President Roosevelt, in an address before the Harvard students, declared: “s e s it is simple nonsense, a mere confession of weakness, to desire to abolish a game because tendencies show themselves or practices grow up which prove that the game ought to be reformed. * * * “The preparatory schools are able to keep foot ball clean. There is no ex- to show tiie same capacity. * * * There is no jusification for siopping & thor- oughly manly sport because it is some- times abused.” The Foot Ball Rules Committee was overhauled under the direction of the Nl!lnnal Collegiate A. A. For the first time some semblance wof order was brought out of chaos in the game's code, with widespread support. HANGES were featured by the in- troduction ' of the forward pass, ‘one to be allowed each scrim- mage”; the abolishment of mass play, shortening of the halves from 40 to 30 minutes and increasing the distance to be gained in three downs from 5 to 10 yards. ‘These alterations marked the devel- {opment of the modern “open” style of play and brought about an immediate revival of public interest. At the same time, the new Rules Committee speci- fied increased penalties “for offenses of brutal nature and formally urges that all institutions playing under these rules shall bar from the game for a year any player disqualified twice dur- ing a season for such p'ay.” The 1906 All-America argument | raged chiefly about the choice for quar- terback, although Walter Camp showed no hesitation in giving the post to Walter Eckersall of Chicago for the second straight time. Other experts, including Caspar ‘Whitney, put Eckersall elsewhere in the barkfield and named Eddie Dillon of Princeton for the signal-calling job. Libby of Carlisle, T. A. D. Jones of Yale and O'Brien of Swarthmore were star field generals. The Jones boys, both famous later as coaches, were team- mldt'a at Yale, Howard Jones playing ‘Tomorrow—The FPair-Haired Coy.

UNIVERSITY, Va., November 25— will be able to put the experience gained through a strenuous season into the choice of plays against North Carolina in the Thanksgiving contest, which ends the Fall campaign for the Cav- alfers. Not until this season did Sippley have much to do with running a foot ball team. In prep school he took orders from another. Last year he paired with Billy Moncure in understudying Johnny Sloan in the duties of a field general. In addition to doing some grade A quarterbacking this Fall, Sippley has carried the ball down the field from scrimmage for gains totaling 554 yards. He has covered more territory than any other man on the Virginia varsity, ex- cept Bill Thomas. Sippley has taken the ball from be- hind the Cavalier line 79 times in the eight games in which he has played. He hes advanced it down the field total of 407 yards, on an average of a fration over 5 yards a try. In addi- | tion he has caught 11 forward passes for additional gains of 147 yards. That meens an average gain of 13 yards on each completed p: or a bit over 6 yards each time he t-ok the ball, either | directly or on an acrial. In recent games Sippley and Thomas | have bcen acting as counter-foils for each other. And between them both a goodly total has been added to the ground covered by the Cavaliers. If one is checked the other usually man- ages to get away. The teamwork be- tween the two is almost perfect. Sippley’s home is in Princeton, N. J., and he studied at Princeton Prep be- fore entering Virginia. When Sippley completed prep school and announced that he did not want to go to college | at home the head master of his school, a Virginla alumnus. recommended that | he come South. Sippley weighs 162 | pounds, is 5 feet 9 inches tall, and is | 23 years old. BY GR!/ Army and Notre Dame. AJ.

Regardless of the Army’s fine record in the East, marred only by a draw yith Yale, Notre Dame will be a good-sized favorite over the Cadets. Today's quo- tation was 5 to 1 on the Irish, with no points oifeied.

When the Army and Navy had their falling-out, the contest assumed a similar impor- tance at West Point and, regardless of | the caliber of the teams, the attraction always is a hot one.

The Moun- taineers will reach Chicago tomorrow in_time to work out in the afternoon. The Oregon State-West Virginia game is listed as the main attraction of the program in Soldier Field, but the con- test between Notre Dame stars of yes- terday and former Northwestern aces bas aroused much interest.
