nobody knows, FOR opinions are so varl-
ed upon which styles Of play Will be
adopted that one would need to be a
prophet who before the lst OF October
could tell much abou; what the teams
VIII do when they come to their more
important contests. The chances are
that the spectators will see some kick
ing, probably more than formerly. But
whether this viii be brought about by
the inability OF teams TO gain ground
when they have only three men back
Uf the. limo. or simply by relying upon
the chances OF high Kick and muff
remains TO be seen. This viii be treated
in the article Intended more far the
players and coaches The spectators
at least will have the opportunity OF
seeing what is done more clearly than
IN the formation plays. and this Is one
Of the recommendations for the altera-
tons
AS soon ms the BAH gets between
the twenty -flve-yard line and the goal
the teams are privileged to use the
foImatin plays of the last two or there
years aud IL is probable that they win
do So.
The next thing that Will strike the
spectator is when a fullback has kicked
the ball the opponents will no longer
rush upon him and knock him down.
Few among the players have realized
that the reason for this apparent bru-
tally has been that this man could,
after kicking the ball If he We're let
alone. run W the field and there get
the bali himself or put his own man
on side so that he could get IT, and gain
as much as If he had made run OF
equal distance, himself carrying the
ball In order to prevent this APP
parent brutality a rule has been made
rendering II impossible for kicker TO
put his man on side or himself get the
ball so long as the kick carries the ball
over the line OF scrlmmage.
stu another alteration which will be
noted ana commented upon by the
spectators Is that when a team has
been scored upOn they are not abso-
lutely forced to Kick Off and thus let
their opponents at once have another
opportunity TO recommence their run
ming game. II is possible now for
side that has been scored upon to
choose whether they will kick off. 1t
seems only fair that the side which
has been scored upon should be able TO
exercise the option thus In this mat
ter. on the whole the alterations and
their effect upon the play should not
render the game any less exciting or
more difficult to understand while they
