GREAT FOOTBALL
KICKERS SCARCE
Famous Toe Experts Are Few
and Far Between This Fall,
TED COY A GOOD ONE.
Yale Captain Has Few Equal* as a
Booter ? Allerc.ice of Michigan, Mc
Govern of Minnesota and Moll of
Wisconsin Are Other Stellar Lights.
Will the field K0.il decide as many
football contests this fall as It did In
100S7 Gridiron experts east and west
are giving considerable thought to the
question. In view of the fact that the
powers that be In football codifying
deemed it advisable last winter to re- ]
JOUNNY H'OOVKHN, CAPTAIN OF MINJHD*
SOT A ELEVEN.
duce the value of l>oth drop and place
kicks to three points instead or four,
a change in gridiron warfare seems Im
minent. Indeed. It appears a possibili
ty that fewer matches will be won this
season by the leather twirling l>etween
the uprights. The fact, however, that
the scoring value of the play has been
reduced one i>oint robs it of much ef
fectiveness.
I^ast season two tield goals netted
eight points; hence if the team blessed
with an accurate kicker could stave
off Its opponent's attack with only one
touchdown resulting the pair of field
goals would win the day. Uuder the
new scoring rules, however, with the
field goal yielding but three points. It
will take three successful boots to
down the eleven scoring a lone touch- |
down.
When one goes over the list of games
that were won by the field goal the
statistics are astonishing. Prominent
among them is Harvard's defeat of
Yale, when Kennard made his now
famous drop kick. Then a field goal
was responsible for the overthrow of
Princeton bv Dartmouth. Many vic
tories were achieved by the Carlisle
Indians through the four point medi
um, the aborigines possessing kickers
of rare excellence in Thorpe and Ba
lentl. On more than one occasion the
toe of Allerdlce saved Michigan.
And then this season's crop of toe
artists does not give promise of com- j
Ing up to the standard of the 1908
galaxy. Kennard will probably not
play for Harvard, Sherwln of Dart
mouth has been graduated. Wheaton
of Yale Is now a back field coach,
Xorthcroft, captain of last year's navy
eleven, and I.ange, have completed
their courses; Balentl and Thorpe will
likely not play with the Indians; Jack
Means has been graduated from Penn
sylvania and Caldwell from Cornell.
However, a few stellar kickers are
left. Vorhis of Penn State, who de
feated Cornell in 1007 with two field
goals, is leading his team this year.
Another Keystone State combination
that promises to boast of a capable
too artist this season is the Univer
sity of Pennsylvania. In Thayer the
Quakers have a capable performer,
lie gave signs of real worth last year
In practice, and his work Is now show
ing to advantage. When the red and
blue opened their season it was Thay
er's toe that added three points to
twenty garnered against Gettysburg.
Cunningham of Princeton showed
last season that he has kicking ability
and will very probably be developed
along those lines. Captain Coy of Yale
was responsible for a four point score
in the 1008 Brown game and should
help out the Ells In this department.
Yale has another good one In Hobbs.
In a recent game against the Spring
field T. S. he kicked six goals. Moore
of Cornell kicked a coal against Penn
sylvania last Thanksgiving and will
probably be used for this phase of the
Ithacnns' attack.
Allerdlce. Michigan's captain, won a
victory from Case with his toe. The
blond captain kicked a field goal late
In the second half, thereby scoring
Michigan's only points of the game.
Moll of Wisconsin and McGovern of
Minnesota are two other stellar artists
In booting the leather between the
(ticks.
Everything taken into consideration,
however, and present Indications do
not point to such a general and suc
ffessful use of the field goal as the
190S campaign developed, there may
be latent talent among the ;andldates
as yet unearthed, and, such being the
case, several surprises may |e sprung.
PROPHETS ARE MUGKRAKERS
ID GARDEN OF EDEN FAKE
LAWRENCE, Kan. ? The prophets
Isaiah, Ezeklel and Jeremiah were
classed as muckrakers, and many of
the stories of the Old Testament were
termed myths by Dr. Charles Foster
Kent, of the Yale divinity school, In
a lecture before the students of the
University of Kansas here yesterday.
"The prophets of Israel were the
social reformers of their time," he
said. They were muckrakers, to use
a present day term. They were sen
sational In their methods, notably Isa
lah, Ezeklol and Jeremiah."
While Professor Kent believes that
many of the stories In the Old Tes'-j
anient are myths, he sees good In
them. He says the prophets were
teaching a simple people, and were
forced to use extraordinary means to
drive home their points.
In discussing the story of the Gar
den of Eden, the speaker said he be
lieved it to be a legend that served
a good purpose, being well fitted to
the chlld-Iiko minds of the people to
whom It was first related.
CAPT. LANGLEY INTENDS TO
RUSH GRUB INTO IDITAROD
There was something in Captain
Langley's mien when he went away
ou his long mush to the coast that
was proof positive that he had some
thing up his sleeve In regard to the
future, although it could not be as
certained at the particular time Just
what it was.
It now develops that Langley and
his associates have a nice litth
frame-up for the spring, and one that
will get them the money In case it
is pulled off.
Captain Green, who, with Langley
aud E. R. Sondheim, Is Interested in
the steamer Tana, is now at the Idlt
arod.
The Tana Is in winter quarters
down somewhere near the mouth of
the Tanana.
Captain Langley is 011 his way out
side, where he will get busy looking
at a few bright lights and will then
gather together a few necessary
beans and pickles and stnrt for Lake
LeBarge, where he intends to build
some sort of a craft that will float
his goods down the Yukon.
In the meantime, Captain Green
will have pulled the Tana out of
her winter berth, crammed a few
cords of wood Into her capacious maw
and will be steaming up the river
to meet Captain Langley coming down!
All very simple. Go to the Idita
rod. Get there first. Land at the
mouth of Otter in high water. Sell
their provisions for enuogh to liqui
date the national debt and then re
tire for the rest of their natural
lives. Isn't it easy? ? Tanana Tribune,

TO TRY OVERLAND ROUTE
MaJ. W. P. Richardson, head of the
Alaska Road Commission, returned
from Juneau today with a warning to
miners who Intend going Into the
uew gold fields of the Innoko and
Idltarod district this winter, advising
them not to follow the new govern
raetn trail from Knik Arm of Cook's
Inlet over the Alaska range to the
south fork of the Kuskokwim river
and thence to the Innoko postofflce,
as the trail Is far from complete and
there is danger of being lost. This
trail was marked out in 1906, and
some work has been done on It, but
It will not be completed across the
mountains until next summer.
"There Is now neither a trail nor a
road house between Susltna station
and the Innoko country and although
there has been more or less travel
over the mountains, substantially a
long the route we have seolected, It
Is a very hazardous trip and I would
discourage any one from attempting
it" said MaJ. Richardson.
"I have always felt that In the
construction of new trails we are in
no small degree assuming the re
sponsibility of making the trail a safe
one to take. F\>r this reason I want
to be understood as advising no onetoj
undertake to cross the mountains on
