LINCOLN, Feb. -(Speolal.VpTtie legal ity of the proposition to vote on the liquor question was settled yesterday when City Attorney Flansbur gave his approval. Mr. Flansburg held that the city had adopted the Initiative and referedum and that as the Excise board la a legislative body, there was no question about the right of the people to rote for against the sa loons. The saloons were voted out of Lincoln a year ago. and when that question was sub mitted no one questioned the right of the people to vote, but wrten tne peumun filed to try the case again, several who op posed the saloons at once raised legal ob jections, holding such an election could not be held. ' Inasmuch as two members of the Excise board have agreed to abide by the result of the election, there sooms little doubt now that the election will be held, and If a ma jority favors saloons, licenses will be Is sued. Both aides are preparing for a hard fight and the result will be very much In doubt until the votes are counted. Steala March, oa Board. By resigning at this time. Prof. J. W. Searson of the Peru Normal school, who has sent his resignation to Principal Crab tree, ho saved the normal board fighting over his discharge.

REVISE FOOT BALL RILES Intercollegiate Committe Consider Number of Radical Changes. INJURIES DUE TO TACKLING Games Between Teams from Ills) Schools sad Colleaes to Be Dla eoaraarrd -Medical Ksam Inatlon of Players. NEW YORK, Feb. .-A radical revision of foot ball Is under advlsemem by the Intercollegiate rules committee In charge Greater safety for the player and mo.e variety for the spectator are felt to be essential If the game Is to be permitted to live by public opinion. The rules committee adjourned last night until March 26, after appo.nting a t.ub commlttee to consider three plan of re organization. . The subcommittee Is composed of A. A. Stagg, University of Chicago; Dr. W. U Dudley, Vanderbllt uni'versHy, Naehvl.le, Tenn., and O. W. Savage, Oberlln. O. When the rule committee reconvenes It will pas formally on the recommendations decided upon In the meantime by the sub committee. In the main the committee now feel that Injuries to players are largely due not so much to mass play as to savage tackles. No More Dlvlnsr Tackles. Accordingly it h recotnmended that there be no more diving tackles; that a rigid physical examination of all candidate be Insisted upon with medical supervision of all players throughout the season; that buffeting with the shoulders of end racing down the field after the ball be abolished and that the back who receives a punt be protected, on the other hand, from un necessary violence by the end. Uner one of the three plans suggested playing halves would be shortened from thirty-five to thirty minutes, with fifteen minutes' Intermission between, and these halves themselves split again into four period of fifteen minutes' play, wtth In termission of five minutes. It Is a ques tion In the. opinion of the committee If It would not be wise to abolish foot ball be tween high schools, or at least between high schools and colleges, where the play ers are more mature In physique. Three Plans Saarsreated. The threa plans upon which the eub-com- mlttee will report provide In substance for the following changes of alignment and play: First plan: 1. Seven men on the scrimmage line. 2. No pushing or pulling of the man with the ball. ' 8. Prohibition of diving tackle. 4. Ends going down the field not to be body checked. 5. Players going down the field under a punt not to approach nearer than five yards to catcher or punter until he has touched the ball and not to tackle him or charge forwaid unless he starts to run with the ball. 6.

LINCOLN. Feb. (SneHal -Chanoellof S.inini-I Avery of the University of Ne braska has received notice of a meeting of the rollege president of the Missouri valley conference schools to be held In Dea Moines In about two weeks to consider the abolition of the American game of foot hall frein their list of Wlorta now played by the "Itlg Seven." He I being urgivl to attend this gathering, but has not yet decided to ge. The movement Which ha resulted In the call for this meeting In De Moines was started by William Allen' White of tho board of regents at Kansas university. At a recent meeting of the Kansas regrmts Mr. Allen Introduced a resolution Instruct ing Chancellor Strong to call together the college president of the ' Mlssduri valley conference, and try to get them to ub stltute rugby for" the. American" Iramn. Neither Chancellor Strong of Kansas nor Chancellor Avery of Nebraska look with favor upon this movement.' T he Jayhawker head I a strong exponent of foot ball and he does not wish to es It abolished. He believes It should b changed to minimize the chances for accidents, but he wants It retained In place of the English game. Chancellor Avery thinks the ' agitation against foot ball Is not altogpthor sane. He says there are undoubtedly many bad feature about the game as It I now played but he believes the rules' committee will so revise the playing code that the ob JecUonal features will be eradicated. Ha Is willing to permit the commute to maka new rules, and he feels sure they will put In revisions that will allay most of the pre- nrni opposition against ths great game. Until the rules' committee shows that It Is not able to make the American game a safe one, Chancellor Avery will stand by the present sport and will not favor ths substitution of the Rugby game. If ths American game cannot be so changed as to eliminate the dangerous plays, then the Nebraska chancellor wllK h ixtaAy for a new kind of game. Until Uion, however he will stick for the American gam. "We never have had a serious Injury at Nebraska," said th chancellor, "and I am Inclined to believe that the other schools of the country wlU soon be able to point to Just as good a, record. I favor tha i game of foot ball, and 1 believe It I one of the greatest sport that can Inter the youth of this country.
