CAMPUS TALK.
ANOTHER ONE ON PARKER.
Old lady to Parker : “How long
does this train stop at -Waddles ?”
Parker: “Four minutes—two to
two to two two.’’
Old lady : “Gracious ; does that
man think he’s the whistle ?”
A person whose way was emphatic
So loved to be called systematic
That he tattooed his talk
With raps of his chalk
He, He! That was very dramatic.
“Of all green words
Of tongue or pen,
The greenest are these
Nineteen and Ten ”
Our circus reporter has informed
us that a performance by trained
horses will be given in about two
weeks. Green tickets are now on
sale at the business office.

Some critics say that our con

the editors to have it red.
THE JAPANESE FAN.
Only a fan
From from Japan,
Spicy with odorous sandalwood,
Breathing the forest where it stood ;
With sail of silk to catch the breeze
And wave it where my mistress
please;
Pictured with dainty geishas fair,
And snowy Fuji cooling the air—
Upon the fan
From far Japan.—Ex.

THE STATE COLLEGIAN
Change in Football Rules.
The new joint football rules com
mittee at a meeting in New York last
week made several important
changes which will be acted upon
finally at a meeting in March. The
time of halves has beeh lengthened
from 30 to 35 minutes each In
stead of a penalty of loss 6f the
ball on an unsuccessful pass, al5
yard penalty on the first and second
downs is provided for. When a
foul is committed it counts as a
down. A line player may carry the
ball, but must not leave his regular
position until the ball is put into
play. If a forward pass before
reaching the ground, or a kicked ball
either before or after reaching the
ground, goes out of bounds, the ball
shall belong to the opponent at the
point where it crosses'the side-lines.
On a kick out after a touch back or
a safety, opponents may not come
within ten yards of the side having a
free kick.
A new official, the field umpire,
will be on the field in the defending
territory and close to the scene of
play in order to settle disputed
plays.

neering society to be held this even
