under Union rules. At the same time
the other colleges of the day, Har-
vard, Rutgers, Princeton, Columbia
and others took up the game in a
more serious attitude. Naturally the
competition was between halls or
classes for many years and inter-col-
lege competition was practically un-
thought of. As the style of play devel-
oped, howpver, the desire for games
between colleges grew and "in 1872"
representatives of Yale, Rutgers,
Princeton, and Columbia met in New
York and adopted a set of rules which
formed the first intercollegiate foot-
ball association in America..
Quoting Mr. Yost again, "The as-
similation of theRugby game and its
evolution into the form in which it is
now played in the United States were
matters of considerable time and no
small amount of deliberation. The I
lEnglish rules were found to be am-
biguous in some cases, and difficult
of comprehension in others. The
novelty of the game was also product-
ive of many suggested alterations and
it was one of these that is responsi-
ble for the wide difference now -be-
tween Rugby and American football.
This was the adoption, of a clause
which permitted the forwards to heel
or pass the ball out fron the scrim-
mage where it could be grasped by the
backs who could then advance It."
Specializatlitn Enters VGame
Special ization began to enter the
game at this time. Certain men were
assigned to particular duties. Forex-
ample, the man that could pass the
ball most accurately was selected to
perform this function consistently, the

Perhaps the reason why women are
considered more nervous than menl
is because women have no pockets in
which to stick their hands.

TELLS EDITORS.
hout hazzarding a direct opin-
i the outcome of today's game,
Fielding H. Yost, speaking
day night before the opening
ot of 'the University Press Club
higan at its annual convention,
ted that the Michi gan team
faces Ohio State today will fight
nish and will not quit until the
ecqnd of play is gone.
ch Yost in an impromptu ad-
old the newspape r workers that

the Michigan teams of the past two
years had never quit; and he empha-
sized that the Maize and Blue eleven
of 1921, the team which lost to the1
Wilcemen 14 to 0 on Ferry Field, did
not quit that day, contrary to public
opinion during the following weeks.
In support of his claim, the Coach
revealed that Ohio gained but an av-
erage of one half yard a trial in that
game.
"If you believe they quit," he chal:
longed, "ask Illinois, which they play-
eg the following week. Then ask Wis-
consin and if you still are not sati-
fied, ask Minnesota why they lost ,35
to 0.
"I saw our team", he continued, "go
into the game that day with five of
otlr best men out and saw another re-
moved after ten minutes of playing.
But our boys did not quit. Since then
we have not lost a single game."
