SEARSON RESIGNS Steals Mareh of State Board of Edu- cation amd Leaves His Position veluntarily—New Qu for Comsumptives. (From a Staff Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Feb, fi—(Speolal)—The legal- ity of the proposition to vote on the liquor Attorney Flansburg gave his approval. Mr. Flansburg held that the city had adopted the Initlative and referedum and that as the Excise board is a legisiative body, there was no question about the right of the people to vote for’Qr against the sa- ln;r;: saloons were voted out of Lincoln a year ago, and when that question was sub- mitted no one questioned the right of the people to vote, but when the petition was filed to try the case again, several who op- posed the saloons at once raised legal ob- Jections, holding such an election could not eld. m;n:nnlmch as two members of the Exclse hoard have agreed to abide by the result of the election, there sooms little doubt now that the election will be held, and if a ma- jority favors saloons, licenses will be ls- sucd. Both sldes are preparing for a hard fight and the result will be very much in doubt until the votes are counted. Steals March on Board. By resigning at this time, Prof. J. W, Searson of the Peru Normal school, who has sent his resignation to Principal Crab- tree, has saved the normal board fighting over his discharge. It had been announced around the state holse for some time that Mr. Searson had been marked for a de- capitation by certaln memmbers of the board, and When action was taken by the board on Mr. Crabtres at the same time the resignation of Mr. Searson would be asked for. Treasurer Brian, who is a mem- ber of the board, is of the opinion both Mr. Orabtree and Mr. Searson have outlived their usofulness at the school, and for that reason he intends to make a fight to have them both removed. The rcsignation of Mr. Searson saves him half that work. The board will meet at Peru Tuesday and at that time an architect will be se- lected for the new school to be erected at Chadron.

Investigation of the matter has developed that In the coming city primaries those cities which have a partisan primary method, must use the voting lists of the last general state primary and not the last municipal primary. There has been much confusion in the matter, and It was found that if the city and, county could mantain entirely separate voting lists the voter might be listed on one as a democrat and on the other as a republican. Palmer Circulates Papers. Colonel D, J. Palmer, chairmap of the railroad commissfon, today commenced cir- culation of nomination papers to have his name on the republican ballot for the com- ing primary for re-election.

The at- tendance has been exceptionally good. In addition to prayer meetings, regular services, Bunday school, religious and round table meetings, much business of church has been transacted. Elders W. J. Wight of Lamon!, Paul M. Hanson of Sloux City, J. C. Crabb of Little Sioux and | Charles Derry of Woodbine are among the ministers from abroad taking active part in the meotings.

NEW YORK, Feb. 6.—A radical revision of foot ball is under advisement by the Intercollegiate rules committee in charge. Greater safety for the player and mo.e variety for the spectator are felt to be essential If the game is to be permitted to live by publie opinion. The rules committee adjourned last night unti March 2, after appo.nting a sub committec to consider three plans of re- organization. . The subcomimittee {s composed of A, A Stagg, University of Chicago; Dr. W. L Dudley, Vanderbilt unfversity, Nashvhle, Tenn., and O. W. Savage, Oberlin, O, When the rules committee reconvenes It will pass formally on the recommendations decided upon In the meantime by the sub- committee. In the main the committee now feels that injuries to players are largely due not 80 much to masse plays as to savage tackles. No More Diving Tackles Accordingly it Is recommended that there be no more diving tackles; that a rigld physical examination of all candidates be insisted upon with medical supervision of all players throughout the season; (hat buffeting with the shoulders of ends racing down the fleld after the ball be abolished and that the back who receives a punt be protected, on the other hand, from un- necessary violencg by the ends. Uner one of the three plans suggesied playing halves would be shortened from thirty-five to thirty minutes, with fifteen minutes' Intermission between, and these halves themselves split again into four periods of fifteen minutes' play, with in- termission of five minutes. It Is a ques- tion in the. opinion of the committee If it would not be wise to abolish foot ball be- tween high schools, or at least between high schools and colleges, where the piay- ers are more mature in physique. Three Plans Sugges: The thres plans upon which the sub-com- mittee will report provide in substance for the following changes of alignment and play: First plan: 1 Seven men on the serimmage line. 2. No pushing or pulling of the man with the ball, : / 3. Prohibitiop of diving tackles. 4 Ends going down the field not to be body checked. 5. Players going down the fleld under a punt not to approach nearer than five yards to catcher or punter until he has touched the ball and not to tackle him or charge forward unless he starts to run with the ball, 6. Eliminate on-side kicks. 7 First man recelving the ball to be al- lowed to carry it anywhere. 8. Forward pass allowed over any part of the line to men on erds of the line or behind the line'when the ball Is put in play. 1. Divide the halves as already rpecified, play to be resumed by the side in posses- sion of the ball when the preceding period closed. s 2. Seven men on the line of offense and three of' the backs to be at least four yards in the rear of the Mine. (This would elimin- | ate the tandem play perfected by Harvard.) 3. Forward pass to be made and chught only by players standing behind the line when the ball is put fto play. 4. In offensive plays between the two twenty-five-yard lines the team with the ball must advance it ten yards in four con- secutive downs or forfelt possession. (Oa this article the committee states itself open to further advice.) Third plan: . L Seven men on the line of scrimmage, with the back field of offense limited to four men, center rush always in the center and no interchange of players permitted. 3. No runner with thé€ ball to receive any help until he has reached the line of serim- mage. (This would reduce the welght of the attack.) 4. Distance to be gained, seven yards in four downs.

LINCOLN, Feb, 6.(8pecial)—Chancellor Samuel Avery of the University of Ne- braska has received notice of a meeting of the college presidents of the Missouri valley conference sehools to be held in Des Molines in about two weeks to consider the abolition of the American game of foot ball from their iist of ®ports now played by the “Big Seven'' He & being urged to attend this gathering, but has not yet decided to go. The movement which has resufted in the call for this meeting In Des Moines was started by Willlam Allen’ White of the boArd of regents at Kmnsas university. At A recent meeting of the Kansas regents Mr. Allen introduced a resolution Instruct- Ing Chancellor Strong to call together the college presidents of the Missour valley conference, and \ry to get them to sub- stitute rugby for the Americarr game. Neither Chancellor Strong of Kansas nor Chancellor Avery of Nebraska look with favor upon this movement. T he Jayhawker head is a strong expbremt of foot hall and he does not wish to see it abolished. Ho believes it should be changed to minimize the chances for accidents, but he wants It retained In place of the English game. Chancellor * Avety thinks the agitation against foot ball Is not altogéther sane. He Fays there are undoubtedly many bad features about the game &s it is now played but he belleves the rules' committes will 80 revise the playing code that the ob- Jectional features will be eradicated. He 1s willing to permit the committes to make new rules, and he feels sure they will put In revisions that will allay most of the sent opposition against the great game. Until the rules' committee shows that it is not able to make the American game a safe one, Chancellor Avery will stand by the present sport and will not favor the substitution of the Rugby game. It the American game cannot be so changed as to eliminate the dangerous plays, then the Nebraska chancellor will- ha ready for a new kind of game. Until however, he will stick for the American game. “We never have had a serious Injury at Nebraska,” sald the chancellor, “and I am Inclined to belleve that the other sehools of the country will soon be able to point to just as good a record. I favor the game of foot ball, and I belleve it Is one of the greatest sports that can interest the youth of this country. In all athletics there Is sometliing more than the mere matter of earning a victory; it is the preparation and strugile that makes athletics worth while. And of all these sports, the one n ing up his character and fitting him for the world, Is foot ball. “Here at Nebraska I hav.seen wonders wrought in the character of young men by foot ball. I have #een young men come here with a most sordid ideal of life, with little manliness; enter. foot ball, ana come out at the end of thejr three years the best kind of gentlemen. Foot ball taught them to fight for better things, to respect their fellows, and to know that the-clean things in this world are the best. —_—— RIAL'S of the NEEDEMS W RAVENT 7D i i .‘3} Munyon's Paw Pills into activity by gentle methods, not scour, gripe or weaken.
