EDITORS DAILY CRIMSON: -Would it not be a change worth considering, to limit the total weight of opposing teams in foot ball (to, say, 1700 or 1800 pounds), in the same way that the weight of tug-of-war teams is limited? I do not see why the same principle should not apply in both cases. The conditions for all would then be fairer, and scientific training and skilful playing would then be far more important elements of the game than they are at present. Join this to the reforms of the game which will do away with its unfair, brutal and unmanly elements, and we may again play the game at Harvard.
