The guards and backfield would tip the scales alike. Such a plan, needless to say, would simply do away with football as it is played today.

Penn State, which until last Saturday had a slight lead on the others inasmuch as it had not been even tied this season, struck a determined obstacle in "Tom" Keddy's Le high eleven and was nearly eliminated from the contest. At any rate it lost much prestige for the conquerors of Nebraska, Dartmouth and Penn. It was fairly outplayed by a "midget" eleven of wildcats which did not have any too enviable a record, having been defeated by the Washington...
