Last Commence- ment Yale gave him the degree of M.A. Owing to continuing poor health he was obliged to give up his work and was advised to rest at his home for a year. This preyed upon his mind and doubtless hastened the end. FOOTBALL As the American Colleges play it, is distinctly an American game. The Englishmen who see it are amazed at the development of Rugby by United States collegians. In all the advances, intrica- cies and elaborations of the sport, the football special- ists have found one firm in the United States always ready to meet, and even often to anticipate their needs.
