To the Editors of the Crimson:

No attempt is being made at the football games this year to keep any record on the scoring board of the length of time to play. The number of downs, which can easily be kept in one's head, and the number of yards to gain, which can usually be ascertained merely by looking at the linesmen, are both kept constantly in view of the spectators; but as regards the time to play, not even the incomplete recording practiced formerly has been attempted. One might argue, and with good reason, that if the time could not be recorded any better than it has been in past years, the practice had best be done away with altogether. But why could not the time be posted in some reliable and systematic manner--say every five minutes until towards the end of the half, when it might be posted every minute?

Although this may seem a trivial point to discuss at such length, when one considers the importance of the time to play in football games, and the ease with which it could be recorded on the scoring-board, he cannot fall to see some ground for the stand here taken.

The game tomorrow promises to be a close one: might not this suggestion be adopted then? UNDERGRADUATE.
