To the Editors of the Crimson:

For the purpose of broadening active interest in football and giving every man in the University a chance to play football on a regularly organized team, Mr. P. V. Bacon '98 has offered eleven cups as trophies for the winning team of a scrub team organization.

In accordance with this idea the following rules have been drawn up.

1. Any set of men, not Freshmen, who wish to compete as a team shall enter their names and that of their team and its captain in the blue books at Leavitt & Peirce's and the Union.

2. Any such team shall not have more than five players from any one class team nor more than six from all class teams.

3. Freshman teams will be appointed by the Freshman head coach from the Freshman material as fast as it is weeded out.

4. Special arrangements shall be made for coaching the Freshman scrub teams, and no man by being assigned to such a team shall be considered as no longer a candidate for the regular Freshman team.

5. All members of the University are eligible to compete, and any man not on a team shall be assigned to one directly after entering his name under "Individual Players" in the blue books at Leavitt & Peirce's and the Union.

6. University squad players shall not be eligible.

7. All arrangements relating to schedules, fields, officials and lockers shall be under the direction of a special manager.

8. Balls will be supplied by the management only for games.

9. The scrub team schedule shall be finished before November 1, and class teams, except the Freshmen, shall not organize before that date.

10. This organization will be known as the "Harvard University Scrub Football Series." D. C. CAMPBELL.

F. I. Emery '02 has been appointed manager of the series. The blue books will be ready at Leavitt's and the Union at 4 o'clock this afternoon, and teams and individuals may sign until Saturday, Oct. 12, at 4 o'clock. The cups will be put on exhibition in the Living Room of the Union today.
