In

over  the  size  of

through  the season  undefeated.  To 
put  the matter  more  strongly,  M. A. 
C.  has  never  been  defeated  in  basket 
ball  since  its organization  under  the 
supervision  of  the Athletic  Associa 
tion. 

last  year  the 

O ne  often  hears  it  said  that  the 
success  of  the M. A. C.  basketball 
team  is due  to the  fact  that  it is  more 
used  to  a  slippery  floor  than  other 
teams  and that  most  of  its games are 
played  at  home.  This  is  not  the 
truth  since  the  opponents  of  M. A. 
C.  have  been  defeated  on their  home 
grounds,  so  to  speak,  by  decisive 
scores. 

In  this  article  it  will  not  be the 
purpose  to  go  into  excessive  lauda 
tion  of  each  player  but certainly  the 
College  community, and  in particular 
those  interested  in  athletics,  should 
bear  in  mind  that  M. A. C. possesses 
team. 
a  very  remarkable  basketball 
M.  A.  C.  holds  the  same  rank  in 
basketball  in the State  that  the  U. of 
M.  holds  in football;  that  is  to  say, 
in  their  respective  spheres  each  team 
is in a class  by  itself. 

During  the winter  of  1904  M. A. 
C.  should  make  a  trip  west. 
It  is 
not  idle  talk  to say that  games  could 
and  should  be arranged  with  a couple 
of  the leading  Chicago  teams,  Knox 
college  possibly,  or  the  University 
of  Illinois,  University  of  Iowa,  Uni 
versity  of  Minnesota,  University  of 
Wisconsin.  This  would  not  make 
an  exceedingly  long  trip  and  the  dis 
tance  from  place  to  place  would  be 
by  easy  stages. 
It  is  hard  for one 
w ho  has always  lived  east  of  Chica 
go  to realize  how well  all  branches 
of  athletics  are  supported  in the  west. 

All  the  institutions  named  would 
without  doubt  be willing  to  arrange 
games  with  M. A. C. and  give  guar 
to  cover  expenses 
antees  enough 
provided  they  were  convinced 
that 
M.  A. C. had  " class,"  and  t he  M. 
A.  C. team  could  at  least  term  itself 
"  Champions  of  Michigan,"  a  term 
that  ought  to have  some  significance 
in  the west.  T he  teams  of 
these 
various  institutions  would  also  show 
M.  A. C.  every  courtesy,  for  they 
have  the true  athletic  spirit  and be 
lieve  in  fair  play.  Twelve  days 
would  cover  the period  of  time  nec 
essary  for this  trip  and all  expenses 
could  be  paid. 
It  is  not  too  early 
now  to solicit  faculty  action  on  the 
matter  and plan  for the trip. 
Should  M.  A.  C.  play 

these 
institutions,  it  is  probable 
that  the 
string  of  victories  would  be  broken. 
team 
A ny  over-confidence,  lack  of 
work  or  of  training  on  the  part of 
M.  A.  C.  would  tend  to  produce 
defeat.  M.  A. C. will  lose  T o w er 
next  year  and while  he is a  valuable 
man,  there  ought  to be someone  in 
College  by  the  next  season  w ho 
could  take  his place  creditably.

It  was necessary  to  practice  in  the

Attacks  on  the  game  of  football 
are  often  more  sensational  than  the 
game  itself;  and at  this  moment  the 
air  is  full  of  words.  Clergymen, 
professors  and  dyspeptic 
college 
journalists  are  prating 
learnedly  of 
the  evils  of  " mass  plays,"  a  subject 
on  which 
ignorance  is  both 
assertive  and  profound.  Some  vol 
ley  out statistics of  injuries, in  which 
we  see  the names  of  persons  " c r i p 
pled  for life "  whom  we know  to be 
unlike  their  biographers  in  that  they 
are  both  well  and  cheerful;  others 
descant  wildly  on  the  evils  of  bet 
ting  and  the  drunkenness  attendant 
upon  a  great  match;  others  deplore 
the  time  and  attention  robbed  from 
study;  some  believe  the  rivalry  of 
two  strong  teams  causes  prolonged 
bitterness  and  hatred;  some  regard 
training 
the  intense  earnestness  of 
as  both  silly  and  harmful; 
some 
assert  that  the  players  on  the  field 
behave  like  ruffians,  and  some,  like 
the  old Puritans,  hate  the game, not 
because  they  really  think  it  wicked, 
but  because  they  secretly  hate  to see 
twenty 
thousand  people  out  for  a 
holiday.  W h en  a  convention  of 
school  and college  instructors,  called 
together  on  educational  matters, 
foot 
passes  resolutions  concerning 
ball,  and  when  the  country 
repre 
sentative  rises  in  legislative  pomp 
to 
forbidding 
an  act 
altogether,  we  may 
the  game 
feel  confident 
fine  old 
this 
that 
sport  will  never  exist  without  its 
enemies.  To the calm  observer  the 
interesting  point  is that  these  attacks 
upon  the game  are  heard  today  not 
for  the  first  time;  they  usually  come 
to  the  relief  of  the  newspapers  in 
the  dull  season  of  athletics,  between 
Christmas  and  Easter.  We  hear 
them  today,  we heard  them  last  year,

and  the year  before  that;  they  were 
heard  with  even  more  violence  three 
centuries ago.

T h e re  is  no  doubt  that 

football, 
like  every  other  sport  and  recreation, 
is  open  to many  serious  objections. 
Certain  players  are  every  year  killed 
and  wounded,  tho  the  mortality  is 
nothing  like  so great  as  that  result

these  vices  are  prodigiously 
magnified  by  yellow  journals;  it  is 
true  that  many  young  men  sit on the 
bleachers  cheering 
singing, 
when  they  might  be studying  in the 
seclusion  of  their  rooms;  it  is  true 
that  not only  students,  but  members 
of  Faculty  Athletic  Committees, say

grieve;  it  is true  that  the  American 
spirit—always  ambitious  of  success 
—makes  every  member  of  a  univer 
sity  team  train  with  a  serious  earn 
estness  that  seems  tragi-comic  to the 
non-athletic  observer.  But  the im 
mense  advantages of this  most  robust 
of  all sports  outweigh,  in  the  minds 
of  most  men w ho  remember 
their 
youth,  all  its  attendant  evils*.  F or 
football  is much  more  than  a contest 
of  animal  vigor;  in the  language of 
Professor  Stagg,  w ho was a  moral 
ist  before  he was an  athlete,  "  Foot 
ball  surpasses  every  other  game  in 
its  demand  for  a  high  combination 
of  physical,  mental  and  moral  qual 
ities." 

that  make 

the 

This  article,  however,  is not  writ 
ten  for  the  purpose  of  defending 
modern  football,  but rather  to  show 
that  the game  thus  far  has not  only 
in  spite  of  attacks,  but 
flourished 
that 
there  has  been  a  tremendous 
rise  in  its  respectability  since  the 
days  of  Queen  Elizabeth. 
I  cannot 
just  now  remember  anything  on 
which  the  Puritans  and  the  play 
then  agreed,  except 
wrights  weie 
their  opinion  of 
football.  W h at 
Shakespeare  thought  of  it  may  be 
seen 
in  the  epithet  which  Kent 
applies  to  one  of  the  most  odious 
characters  in "  K i ng  Lear."  Trip 
ping  up Oswald,  he calls  him  " y ou 
base  football  player."  Modern  leg 
islators  must  rejoice  at  finding 
that 
they  have  plenty  of  precedents'  for 
legal  prohibition  of  the  game. 
In 
1424  we  find  " T he  King  forbiddes 
that  na  man  play  at  the  fut  ball 
under 
iiiid."  Sir 
T h o m as  Elyot  remarked,  in 1531, 
"  Foote  balle,  wherein  is  nothinge 
but  beastly  furie  and exstreme  vio 
lence." 
If  in  Elizabethan  days  the 
dramatists,  w ho were  not  noted  for 
football,  wbat 
their  piety,  attacked 
shall  we expect  from  the  Puritans? 
T he  most  circumstantial 
indictment 
of  the game  came  from  a  Puritan 
of  Puritans,  Philip  Stubbs. 
In  his 
"Anatomie  of  A b u s e s"  (1583), he 
thus  denounces  the  sport: 

the  payne  of

thing 

In  the attack  just  quoted  the  most 
interesting 
to  the  modern 
reader  is that  precisely  the same ob 
jections  were  made  to the game  that 
we  have  been  hearing  from  all quar 
ters  during  the  last 
three  months. 
T he  list  of  casualties,  the  attempt 
of  rough  players 
to  "do  u p"  an 
opponent,  the  bloody  use  of  the 
elbow  in a scrimmage, the  " k n e e i n g" 
which  the  Evening 
Post  used  to 
discuss  so  constantly,  the  bitterness 
of  rivalry—all  of  these  points  make 

the  philippic  of  the worthy  Stubbs 
sound 
like  the  angry  protest  of  a 
modern  scribe  or  pharisee. 

In  America 

If  the blood  of  the martyrs  be the 
seed  of  the Church,  surely  the blood 
of  the  athletes  is  the  seed  of  the 
sport. 
to-day,  thirty 
thousand  people  will  witness  a  Yale-
Harvard  game,  while  the contests at 
Sydenham  in  England  are  cheered 
by a concourse  of one  hundred  thous 
and  excited  Britons.

judges  gave  M.  A.  C.  first  place  ;  on  delivery  we  received  third  place. 
In  the  final  ranking  M. A. C.  tied  with  Olivet  for  second  place.  Olivet

T he  College  has  always  been  strong

reason  why  it  should  not  be  in  these 
other  events.  T h e re  are  no  "star
