FOOTBALL REFORM PLANS

The work In football reform Is advancing stead
lily, and a meeting Of the Rules Committee may be
held at the University Athletic Club later in the
week. The University OF Pennsylvania will appoint
a delegate to the proposed meeting. Walter Camp
for Yale; DR.. w. A. Brooks. for Harvard, and
Alexander Moffatt, for Princeton, will all serve
tee. has not yet been heard from.
Walter Camp is in favor of making some material
changes in the football rules but he is not opposed
to mass plays to the extent that some people
thought he would be. Camp offers two suggestions
He says that man having fair catch should
raise his arm, and that action would be a guaran-
caught the ball. The catcher should not be inter
fered with unless he muffed the ball; then any
player could get It, If he should be interfered with
In making fair catch his side should receive TWEEN
tyfive yards. This would stop Illegal interference
in short order
Camps other proposition is that game should
consist Of two halves Of thirty minutes each, in
stead Of two forty-fve-ninute halves. He also
not think 1t best TO allow team TO batter one par
ticular player Camp gives as his reason for short
ening the game that IL would prevent prolonging
the agony, and that it would also prevent the
be won some trick.
l.. F. Deland, the author of Harvards famous
chess tricks, also out in favor OF reform.
Mr.. Deland believes in doing away with the flying
sist of three thirty-minute halves with an inter-
mission between each, rather than two halves Of
forty-fve minutes each.

stake for which We fight is the govern
ment Of the United States and the lib
erty Of 65 millions Of people. England

gate the people Of The country. Her
method is first 10 impoverish the people,
