ABOUT THE GAME.
The object of each team is to force
the ball over their opponents goal line
and for this purpose the team is di-
vided into rush line and backs.
When the teams line up the ball Is
held by the center, and is said to be in
play IA soon as he snaps it back to
the quarter. The quarter passes it
on to some other player according to
signals already given, and the whole
team by blocking their opponents and
in helping him gain ground. If tack
led and brought to the ground by his
opponents he must cry down, after
which the ball is again given to CEN
ter and the same process is repeated.
If the team does not gain five yards
in three downs the ball goes to the
other side, which in its turn endeav-
ors to advance it. The player may
kick the ball or run with it, provided
that when he receives it he is on-side,
that is, between the ball and his own
goal line.
The game is governed by IA code of
rules, any infringement of which is
called a foul, and may be punished by
ruling the offending player off the
field or by giving the opposing team
a number of yards gain or the ball.

technical terms used in the game:
A goal is obtained by kicking the
ball over the cross bar of the oppo-
nent's goal.

ing the ball to the ground behind the
opponents goal.
In touch means out of bounds.
A safety is made when a PLAYER
touches the ball down behind his own
goal provided the impetus which
drives the ball behind the line is not
received from an opponent. If it is
received from an opponent it is called
a touch back
