All Records to be Broken This Year in Foot
ball Receipts; all Attendance Greater
( Than Ever Before; Big Money Taken in.
The football attendance receipts this
year will establish new high records.
The attendance of all the Important
games this year has been greater than
ever before.
The war may have crimped the base
ball patronage but it has had no ef
fect upon the college sport. More than
1,000,000 persons will see the big games
in the different parts of the country
and the average price per head will be
$1.50, bringing the total outlay up to
$1,500,000.
In other years football attendance
was made up largely of students or
graduates of the universities engaged
In the battling. That part of the public
which had no Alma Mater and which
got all its learning in the grammar
schools cr in the school of business
didn't patronize the games to any ex
tent. But this year it is different.
Football has made a strong appeal
to all the classes in the past two years.

enthusiastic rooters.
The receipts of the Harvard-Micht
gan game were in the neighborhood of
$50,000. The Harvard-Prineeton game
reoeipts were over $70,000. The Yale-
Princeton receipts probably will total
$70,000 while the receipts from the
Yale-Harvard game, which will, be
played next Saturday, will get over
$125,000.
The receipts for the three big games
would have been larger had the ac
commodations for spectators been
greater. The Yale Bowl will seat 70,-
000. When it was in the course of
construction it was said by some that
the stands never would be filled. Yet
requests for more than 125,000 seats
were made for that game. The re-

quests for seats for the Yale-Prlnce

Attempts are now being made to
steal from the so-called "smaller" col
leges the glory that is theirs through
beating or tying the big elevens, by
charging that these small colleges hire
professional football players to bolster
up their ranks.
The chances are 10 to 1 that thero
is absolutely no truth in the charges—
that the charges are false and that
they cannot be backed up. As is usual
with charges of this kind, no real
names are mentioned in the article.
The indictment is a blanket one.
Whenever a "small” eleven, that has
a student enrollment about one-fifth
or tenth of that of Yale, Harvard,
Princeton, Michigan, Chicago or the
other big colleges, ambles along and
knocks the wadding out of the big
college, such charges usually follow.
The ‘‘old grads” and the students of
the big colleges can’t see how it is
possible for a small college eleven to
wallop ft Mg college eleven unless there
is some crooked work behind it. So
they charge that the small colleges
used ‘ringers.” They assert blatantly
that ‘‘no small college team could beat
us otherwise.”

fHE AUGUSTA HERALD, AUGUSTA. GA.
a small eleven beating a big eleven
were remote, because old style foot
ball ruled and beef and muscle tri
umphed ninety-nine times out of a
hundred. But In these modern days
when the open game Is In force, when
speed and brains are greater assets
than beef, there always 1b a great de
gree of uncertainty as to just how n
foptball game will end.

It Is charged that one of the small
elevens that gave a big eleven a beau
tiful beating used a professional In one
of the guard positions. Taking it from
the statements made one Is led to be
lieve that this “professional” guard
was solely responsible for the victory
of the small eleven. Everyone Is left
to assume that as soon as the game
began the slmon pure amateurs on the
small team quit work and let the pro
fessional on the job, the said profes
sional playing all the positions by his
lonesome.
The small eolloges, we are Informed
through the medium of the article, hire
professional football players at an
average wage of $25 or S3O a month
and board. This statement Is laugh
able. If a youth Is husky enough to
play guard on a eollege eleven he cer
tainly is husky enough to tackle some
other sort of job. And any old kind
of a job would pay him more than $.30
jl month—-that's a cinch. Furthermore,
mighty few jobs that he would tackle
would Involve the same risks to Ufa
and limb as fooiball does.
If the charges had declared that the
alleged "ringers” get S3OO a month
there might have boon some who would
have given the matter consideration
But S3O sounds like hunk.

THE SUCCESSFUL SPECIALIST

Experience and Adequate Equipment
My largo and growing practice ha« been built upon
a repetition of successes, doing the right thing In the
right way hundrrds upon hundreds of Union with great
success. It will pay you both In time and money to

tion before placing your case with anyone. I am no
medical company or fake institute, und have no In
competent hired doctors. I give every patient my per

Every branch of medicine Is a field In iteelf. The
Teaching Staff of all Medical Colleges la compoaed of
Speclaliet* In each branch. It surely could not be ex
pected that a atudent would become expert In all
branche* He la expected to select some specialty
that his skill and natural Inclination and ability suits
best. There oan be no comparteona between the ability
of the ordinary physician and that of the trained
Specialist. The former Is trying to explore and con
quer the whole field of Medicine and Surgery, and
therefore becomes proficient In no particular branch.
The latter conscientiously confines himself to a single
class of Ills and masters them. If your automobile or
wagon should gat out of order you would not take It
to a Jeweler. It your watoh or clock got out of order
you should not take It to a blacksmith. If your wife
or any member of the family should have Pneumonia
or Typhoid Fever you should not call In an Eye Spe
cialist, but the family physician who dally treats such
conditions. If you should have some special or private
disease you should not go to the family doctor, but to
a Bpecl<at, who Is equipped and trained especially for
the treatment of such cases.

ING, Is especially qualified and equipped to treat dis
eases about which most people dislike to consult the
