This is only seventy-eight less than the total registration up to the same time last year. A total of 110 seniors have reg is­ tered in the Academic Departm ent, or about one-half of the total num ber of possible candidates for degrees this year, exclusive of transfers. In order to equal last y e a r’s record, thousand students m ust nearly one register today. Although the good •ecord made yesterday was a pleas- int surprise to the officials, it is still feared th a t there will be a falling off from the record established last year. The num ber of girls in comparison to the total registration is still small, and although figures by departm ents are not yet available, it is thought the Law D epartm ent will su ffer the heaviest loss of students. The financial depression caused by the European war is a t once the cause for the falling off in the number of students and for the unprecedented number of students who are seeking to earn a p art, or all, of their ex penses.

FIE L D IN GOOD CONDITION. Clark Athletic Field is in better con­ dition this y ear than it was ever be­ the fore. The heavy rains during summer caused the field to grow up in high g rass, and this, when cut, a f ­ fords a splendid soft tu rf to work on. The University teams in all the v a­ rious athletics unfortunately have to all use the same field, and frequently the tu rf has to be broken to prepare for some p artic u la r sport. This means th a t during the summer more g rass must be planted in getting the field in shape for the football season. This year the field is unusually so ft and fast, and injuries to the players ought to be reduced to a minimum. The fen ce around the gridiron has also been replaced and the bleachers erected again on the east and north sides o f the field. Lawhon. mont. zenthein. dice. Jones. ' Musical O rganizations: W. E.

College Press Service. Waxahachie, Sept. 2f>.—Trinity Uni­ versity opened its football season to day upon home grounds, with John Tarlton as its victim. The final score was (>2 to 0. The Tarlton men were plucky from the beginning and fought all through; they were outplayed, how­ ever, a t all times by T rin ity ’s machine. The beauty about the game, from the university’s standpoint, was th a t Coach W erner used about twenty men and they all showed up equally well. Touchdowns were made in every q u a r­ ter; team had fhe ball in their possession only a few times. the Tarlton in fact, the game fought, and It would be impossible to pick out any man as the s ta r on the W a x a­ hachie eleven, for every one t h a t went into fought hard. And, too, it would not be cor­ to say t h a t Trinity made her rect gains by any particular play; every formation used by the team was e f­ fective. King and Ester, a t quarter, the men a chance, and all gave all lived up to their past record. The first q u a rte r ended with the the second, 35 to 0; to 0, and the fourth, score 6 to 0; the third, 48 62 to 0. are pleased with Coach W erner and all of T rin ity ’s supporters this opening of the season. With a team of the quality mentioned, and with fhe fighting spirit they have Trinity will surely do something be­ fore the end of the season, according to local calculations. th a t T rin ity ’s line-up: Beall, left end; Borders, McKenzie, left tackle; Tur- bow, Herring, center; Stone, Whitfield, rig ht guard; F ag an, Fleming, rig h t tackle; Shaffer, Orr, rig h t end; Eestes, Thornton, King, quarterback; Sherill, Huffm an, left half; Quait, righ t half; Hayes, Duncan, fullback.

AS TO ADVICE. ’Long about this time of the year, the college editor, being new to his job and very serious about his mission in life, is led to unburden himself of "Advice! to the Freshm en.” Now, we reckon th a t if there is anything the average freshman gets in excess of his needs, it is advice. But, really, now, the freshman ought not to let the surfeit of admonition make him careless of all suggestions. Some of them are sensible — the suggestions, we mean, though, of course, the freshm en—but th a t’s aside from the point. Now, our advice is th is: Be wary, but be not too wary. Don’t looks d istru st everybody who like he wants to help you. I t’s not every smile that presages an attem pt to impose upon callow inexperience.

N early every season some of the rules a r e so poorly d ra fte d th ey give to a v ariety of in te rp re ta tio n s rise and is no exception. the y ear 1914 According to the foreword in the rule hook explaining the changes made in the code this year, it is s ta te d th a t “ the rules have been alte re d so th a t a free-kick h itting the goal post and bounding hack into the field of play becomes a utom atically a touchback ju s t as it w as an ordinary though p unt.” Undoubtedly the rules com­ m ittee intended to m ake such a law, but when it drafted th e rule it missed the mark. U nder the code of 191’1 the follow­ ing rule was in effect: “ I t is a touch­ back when a kicked hall (o th e r th a n one from kick-off, free-kick or one .scoring a goal from the field) goes over the goal line before being touched lf such by a p layer of e ith e r side, a ball strikes th e u p r ig h ts o r cross- b a r it shall be considered us having cross th e goal line.” A the free-kick which w ent over goal line or hit the goal post or cross­ b a r did not auto m atically become a touchback because the free-kick was specially excepted in the f ir s t p a r t of th e rule. I t was sought to include the free- kick in this y e a r ’s rule and provide t h a t when a free-kick hits the goal post o r crossbar it became a touch­ back ju s t as a p u n t did. And so the rule read: ‘‘It is a touchback when a kicked hull (o th er th a n one from kick-off, free-kick o r one scoring a goal from the field) goes over the goal line before being touched by a player of either side.

As a rule reads, a free-kick which hits the u p iig h ts or crossbar is not a touchback because it is excepted in the f ir s t p a r t of the rule. But, according to the la st part of the rule, the free-kick which hits is consid­ the u p rig h ts or cro ssb ar ered as being across th e goal line. Inasm uch as the f ir s t p a r t of th e rule says t h a t it would not be a tou ch ­ back even the free-kick did though cross the goal line, the c h a n g in g of the second p a r t of the rule did not help m a tte rs. in te rp re t situation would if have been T he the comm ittee had merely saved struck o u t th e word free-kick.
