For More Open Play.

Another suggestion has been made re-
garding more open play. Those who have
watched the game closely see no reason
why the quarterback should not be al
lowed to run with the ball the same as
the others back of the line. As the rule
now stands he cannot run IL he receives
the ball from the center, but must pass it
TO some one else. The argument is that by
giving the quarter back the same powers
as the other players, the game would be
Is 10 occur behind the line, which are points
that spectators favor.
Some of the rules will have to be rewrit-
ten, as they are SO vague in meaning that
different interpretations Of them were
made last season. notably the one about
the kickoff, which has caused no end of
trouble. When team kicks the ball out
of bounds twice, the opposing team gets
1T and kicks off from the middle of the
field. This rule was meant to cover the
case of where the pigskin was driven over
the goal line into touch twice on the at
tempt to kick off, as that was considered
by the rule makers as out of bounds. For
some reason the ball was at times last
season brought out only to the twenty
five yard line and given to the opposing
team, the rule regarding touchback be-
ing used to cover the case instead OF the
one regarding out of bounds, SO that the
team which got the ball lost thirty-five
yards, when 1t should have been given
the ball in the center of the gridiron. To
cover this case the experts claim that the
rule should make reference to both out
of bounds and in touch. and then there
will be no further trouble.

MASS PLAYS To BE ATTACKED.
BRUTAL PLAYING TO BE ENTIRELY
ELIMINATED.
Some of the Proposed Notifications
That the Experts VIII Consider
News of the Baseball
World-GeneraI SpOrt-
ing Gossip.

Representatives of the large universities
will meet in New York to-day for the pur-
pose of alternating and improving the pres
ent code of football rules. The men select
ed for the work are: P. ]. Dashiel, Lehigh;
Alex Moffit. Princeton: r. d. Wrenn, Har-
ward: L. NJ. Dennis. Cornell; John c. Bell,
Pennsylvania; Walter Camp. Yale. AS far
as can be ascertained from the news given
to outsiders the general object of the pro-
posed alterations is to enact such new rules
as will do away with the much-talked-of
massed play. and necessarily make the
game more open than it is now played.
Football legislation for several years past
has practically narrowed down to this prob
lem. and massed play is attacked on the
danger of the sport and mars the interest
of the game by causing the plays to be-
come monotonously close and intricate.
Rules Needing Revision.
From what has been said it seems proba-
BILE that mass plays will be abolished by
making every man in the line, which in
cludes the ends. tackles, guards and center,
seven men in all, to remain in position
until the ball has been snapped back. In
this way only four men, the quarterback,
the two halfbacks and the fullback, will be
permitted to make any sort of forma-
If such revision is made 1t will do away
with what is known the guards back
interference, which Pennsylvania used to
such an extent last season, also the So
called turtleback wedge and other forma-
tions which have been prominent and
which have been aimed at one opponent.
Those who are working for the abolish
ment Of all mass plays use as a strong ar
Sument the fact that the Yale eleven of
last season, which was considered inferior
TO the other big college elevens, played
straight football and achieved success en-
tirely unlocked for. If Yale they say,
could do SO we'll by playing straight
game against teams which were supposed
to be much stronger. then why should not
all elevens be compelled to put up the same
kind OF a game? The work Yae did is
conclusive evidence to them that mass
plays are not essential to success.
Ii was not in the Yale-Harvard and Yale
Princeton games that fatalities occurred,
but in contests between teams belonging to
smaller colleges and schools These minor
elevens endeavored to play according to the
rules, and in doing SO many players were
severely injured, and some were killed,
which aroused public Indignation against
the rules and caused one state legislature
to pass a law forbdding the game. The
committee will therefore make a special ef-
fcrt to so revise the rules that fatalities
will be well nigh impossible to players of
the smaller elevenS. who have not the ad-
vantage of being coached by experts and
there seems to be little doubt that it will
be done by putting a stop to all forma-
regular positions are there.
