Thereport of the committee is as follows; .Since it has been customary for, theAthletic Department of the Univer­sity 'to give a banner to the winningteam and prizes to the point winnersin the meet on Junior Day, and sincethis can no longer be done, on ac­count of the late ruling of the Uni­versity Senate cancelling the Michi­gan game and forbidding a game withMinnesota or any university of theEast. which makes it necessary tocut down in every way possible inorder to conduct the regular work,it has been deemed wise and neces­sary to raise the money needed forthese prizes and banners by subscrip­tions from the faculty and from thestudent body of the University.C.

IIt is strange that the students ofChicago have had so little to say inthe recent footballagitation. It is awelt known fact thatthe action was takenwithout consideringthe appeals of ' certain welt informedmen on the subject and without thestudents figuring in the matter atall. They know definitely that Mich­igan and Wisconsin will not' 'be met,and they have strong grounds uponwhich to base the belief that neitherMinnesota nor any of the high-classEastern teams will figure in ourschedule. If the students of Chicagodo not care whether Captain Ecker­sail and the championship footballmaterial which is now in college,play a couple of practice games andperhaps a contest with Indiana orPurdue for our greatest contest, itseems useless for the men on thefaculty who love the game and areagainst the radical action of the Sen­ate, and a few of the student body whohave spirit enough to say, the drop­ping of these games was not the wayto correct the faults of foot ban, toattempt to seek a compromise mea­sure. The students have power tomake the authorities of the univer­lity feel that they have not done theright thing in ignoring them. Thestudents have been asleep, soundlyand peacefully. It is undoubtedly toolate to ask for a reconsideration ofthe action taken in regard to Mich­igan. but it is not too late to askthat the athletic authorities be al­lowed to arrange for games worthyof our best, and games the winningof which witl be a great honor to ourAlma Mater.A good many weeks ago the mostpowerful ()f our student executivebodies, the Senior College councilwas asked to learn from the studentstheir attitude toward this football re­form movement. Nothing was doneand the reason is unknown. It maynot be the purpose of the SeniorCollege to act in this matter, and ifsuch is the case then it behooves thestudents to look to their leaders forconcerted action before it is too late.A petition signed by every studentwho believes that Chicago should notbe wiped athletically off the map,and by every one who wishes to seeDo theStudentsCare?When a Manuses poor soap, his facerebels-becomes sore andirritated.

He read about"John" and then started for Chicago,bent on saving his pride and joy froma life of "red lights" and "foolishwater."He got to Mandel Hall just as theballet was starting to work and hecaught John with the goods on, oras much as usually impedes a balletdancer. The old man didn't know himat first. and when the airy creature,with large feet, ran up to him, Fathergrabbed his watch and put it in hisinside pocket. Then he recognized"John.""What does this mean ?" saidfather, without applying the softvedat."I'm a chorus girl," replied John.Three glasses of cold water and aliberal application of cold air revivedJohn as Father Found Him.

It .was a tragicmoment. A crowd of immitationchorus girls and Egyptian footballplayers gathered, and Manager Palt­zer was talking in bunches.

The jolly hit the right spot.Father began to think that if "John"didn't appear in the opera the entireuniversity would never forget the in­sult.The old man's wrath cooled rapidlyand he began to think that eventhough nJohn" did live down in thewoods he was able to show the cityIcllcrs something. Paltzcr finally in­duced the "old man" to take dinnerwith him down in the city and talkthe matter over.

The Senior College Council re­• - quests that all fraternities and clubsMichigan.

The 1\1 ichigan board of con­trol has acceded to the Chicago requestfor thc release from the contract fora 1900 game, and in addition to clos­ing negotiations with Pennsylvaniafor games in both 1900 and 1907, hasopened up negotiations with Corncllfor a second eastern game to takeChicago's place on its schedule.Minnesota has just completed nego­tiations with the Carlisle Indians fora game on Northrop field at Min­neapolis for Saturday, November 17.It is also arranging games with Ne­braska and Iowa, and will probablytake Ames and Beloit or Lawrenceon for its other two games.Advices from Wisconsin arc alsoto the effect that football is far fromdead in the Wisconsin camp. Astrong schedule is being mapped out,with possibilities of securing an east­ern' game.Northwestern students yesterdayheld an immense mass meeting andresolved that athletics should be. pre­served. To take the place of footballthey have. adopted j a g�me onlyslightly less . brutal and rough, andone in which they hope to eliminateprofessionalism.
