...spirit of modern football as scouting plays throughout the season. Is it not after all an open question whether the spirit that makes a practice of openly sending Harvard coaches to attend Dartmouth's games with other colleges in order to chart her plays and methods of attack (a thing which is regarded by the best athletic authorities in the country as legitimate) differs much from a spirit that would permit scouting Dartmouth's signals from the side-lines during the Harvard game before the eyes of 30,000 spectators?

The rules have justified themselves in this respect and have produced a game that pleases the public, the players, and so far as may be, those who have formerly criticised, for it gives an hour...
