The annual protest against the rough
ness and brutality of football as played
in American colleges and schools was so
vigorous at the close of this year's
season that the friends of the game are
coming forward with facts to show that
it is no more dangerous than any other
vigorous exercise or game, and they
cite bicycle' accidents, shooting acci
dents and drowning while sailing or 1
skating to show that the record' of foot
bull is not open to serious criticism as
un exceptionally rough game. In a late
issue of Harper's Weekly Caspar Whit
ney mentions his ten years' exclusive
study of amateur sport and its depelop
ment, and his extensive acquaintance
with football player, adding:
"In all this time I have never had a
friend nor even an, acquaintance who
was killed or permanently injured by
football. On the other hand, f have an
acquaintance who lost his eye, and one
damaged for life playing polo; four
friends have been drowned by the up
stttingof a sailboat, two drowned by the
overturning of a racing shell, three
drowned while swimming, two while
skating.twokilledinhunting, one by an
an infuriated giizzly bear, the other by
a defective rifle; one killed by the care
less handling of a' shotgun, and one
killed by one of those didn't-know-it-was-loaded
fools who was fingering a
revolver. Several friends and as many
acquaintances have been killed and sev
eral badly crippled while riding or
driving horses."
Mri Whitney says that in 20 years he
has been able to trace only six deaths di
rectly to foot ball, two of which oc
curred this year. One of these deaths
was that of Bert Serf, of the Doane col
lege football team in Kansas. He died
from injuries received while playing the
University of Kansas team at Lawrence,
in that state, on. November 14 last. A
New York representative of the new
journalism declares that Serf was killed
in a mass play, and was picked up un
conscious after a scrimmage. Chan
cellor Snow, of the University of Kan
sas, has written a letter giving the facts I
about the death of young Serf, who was
only 18 years old. Chancellor Snow
says: '
"Speak of the Kansas eleven, the
lightest man in the team, weighing
about 150 pounds, had the ball and was
making an end run for a touch down,
lie had a clear field for the gonl, when
Serf, who was playing full back, ran to
tackle him, and as the result of a too
high tackle was thrown, striking the
ground with his head, just as Speak
carried the ball over the line for a
touoh down. The real cause of Serf's
death was h'u being out of condition.
He had been Injured in a previous
game, at which time he had been car
ried off the Sold unconscious on account
of an injury to his head. He was laid
out during the first half of the game
with Kansas.and tbe referee and others,
members of the Kansas team, protested
against his being allowed to continue
in the game. He should not have been
allowed to play at all." " --- -
Chancellor Snow then makes nn im
portant suggestion. He suggests that
un ''additional official, to rank with the
referee and umpire, a medical adviser,
be appointed, with full power to remove
from the gome any man of either eleven
who is clearly not ia condition to con
tinue the game."
The chuncellor also notes that the
three men of the Kansas team who were
reported "duinrerouslv injured were
not more than slightly injured. He
adds:
"I have no doubt that an investigation
of the entire list of those reiiorted dan
gerously and seriously injured would
show a general exaggeration of the ac
tual condition of the players men
tioncd."
Mr. Whitney supplements this by the
declartion that in oil the games that
Harvard, Vnle, Princeton and 1'eiinnyl-
ania have played t here has never been
it death. These games have been the
hardest played in the entire country.
lie ulno declares that there is no
of a pcrinuncnt injury In, any of
games, and that the most seriou
dent in any of them was thut
broken breust bone. The man who
with the accident Is strpng and well to
day. Mr. Whitney says thut if we wish
to have sport without danger wc must
confine ourselves to croquet or squat
tag, or pleasure of that grade. N. Y
