A;'Stgg Representative to the Eastern Convention.-Proposed Changes In.Football Rules-Reso- .lelbna on the Great Colege Sport. Charles )aird returne d yesterday from Evanston and Chicago, where, he was sent AS thedelegate of the Athletic association. Mr. Baird spoke enthusiastically of the Chicago Alumni assotlation banquet Saturday, whre he repaoaded to the toast on "Ath- letics.' He said that Presi'dent Adams, of Wisconsin, in speaking of football, said lie "would far rather see ,football played with its present abuses than to see it abolished." Mr. Baird regarded the meeting of western college football men at Evans- ton as of little importance. Repre- sentatives were present from Minnu.- sota, Lake Forest, Beloit, Northwest' ern, Chicago, Wisconsin and Michi- gan. Football reforms were discussed Friday and Saturday, and it was de- cided to send A. A. Stagg as repre- sentative of the different colleges in the convention to the meeting to bo called in the East for revision of the football rules. Wisconsin and Michi- gan refused to concur in the action the couerehme took, on the ground 'that the meeting was not one of the representative football colleges of the West and because there seemed to be no authority back of the represent- fives. The proposed changes in the football rules recommended by the eonfereneo :are as follows: "There shall be two umpires and -one refereecontrolling the game. The referee is empowered to call a foul tn ease of a violation of the rules which Is not seen by the umpires. "The side making a fair catch shall be given fivo yfds, and from that place shall shve the option of a free kick or a down, provided that suet -fair catch is not made within twenty five yards of the opponents' goal. Th player attempting such fair catcl shall call out 'Fair catch,' and if in terfered wi or tackled whie mak ing the attempt shall be givn twenty 'de yardt "A substitute for each team shal act as linesman, and shall use a lin five yards in length. "The side missing a try at goal shal have option of taking the ball or not "Whenever a side has tried a drol kick at the goal upon the first dowi Inside thetwenty-five yard line an thef result has been a touch-back, th- 'line of kick-out shall be the fifteen yard line." The foowifig resolutions were a1si adopted: "Whereas, We sincerely egred-tha thl upnwarritMe rougpss. f a fei 1oathall tema last fall gave occdiowe fo,- Ju - seionp agitoatloa among-aes oral colleges in regard to the advisa- bility of abolishing the game of foot- ball from the'college campus; and, "Whereas, We regret that to some extent football is regarded as a brutal game by the general public; therefore, be it "ie olved, That we sincerely believe the game of football to be an excellent form of physical exercise which legi- timately belongs to the college campus. Further be it "Resolved, That we do not believe that brutality is a necessary incident to the game, but is due to a lack of proper discipline. But it further "Resolved, That. we believe that the style of play depends in a great meas- ure upon the captains and coachers of the different teams, and that it is thl unanimous sentiment of -the confer- 'nco that all kinds otf intentionltrough- ness and brutality be strongly con- demned and discountendnced on our respective college grounds. Be it also "Rlesolved, That the practice of playing coaches and non-bonafide stu- dents or students of inferior grade of scholarship be entirely discontinued, and that we call upon the assistance of our respective college faculties and student bodies to execute these resolu-' tions."' ASSOCIATION ON SOCIETIES? Who Is to Control Intercollegiate Debates. The.action of the Oratorical associa- tion in endeavoring to get control of the intercollegiate debate has created a. stir in the societies that it would affect. The societies wo have had control of this annual contest, and to wlhom, if to anyone, credit is due for success attained In the past are the Adelphli, the Alpha Nu, the ester, and the Teffersonian; and it seems as if decided opposition will be made to any such move as that proposed by the Oratorical association. The Adelphi at their last meeting took a decided stand on the question and instructed the person sent to place 1 the matter before them and report t back to the association, which holds i I A SUMMER IN PARIS. MR. MORITZ LEVI SPEAKS. BE- FORE THE UNITY CLUB. The Gay French Capital Described A Parisian Street a Perpetual Mu- seum-The "Latin Quarter." One of the brightest papers given in Ann Arbor this year was that read by Mr. Levi at Unity club last even- ing. It was full of humorous turns and at the same time showed a 'acquaintance with Paris that ferw Am- ericans ever acquire. Paris, he says, is one of the most. interesting cities in the world. Every- thing is alive and the people seem to have the art of getting the most pleasure possible out of life. A 'aris" street is a veritable museum, with its street venders; companies of sol- diers, brass bands, street corner jug- glers, men with performing animals, and everything else that the best lim- agination could picture. Boys and men run about with papers and wo- men have newstands at the corners. Along the banks of the Seine are the old and second hand book stalls where thousands of books are piled up for sale at a surprisingly low figure. The Latin or Students' Quarter is perhaps the moat full of int-rest for us. This is the traditional home of Parisian and indeed French learning. Almost all the great names of France have been connected with it, and the same might be said for the present time. The Parisian students are happy and careless, enjoying nothing more than a practical joke and in- dulged by the police to a considerable degree. Riots, however, are of rare occurrence.
