Chicago, Nov. 2s.-The adoption Of a
rule requiring team to make ten in
stead Of five yards in three downs, is
the remedy Waltr Camp, iale's athletic
mentor popo~d last night To relieve
the game of football of its dangrs to
life and its brutality. Mr., Camp is ON
u visit TO Chicago.
"More open play would be forced on
the teams by requiring ten instead Of
five yards in three DOWNS" said Mr..
Camp. THAT would change the charact.
er of the injuries. 1t is true that an
open field tackle is the hardest kind Of
a tackle. But in open field play the in
juries are usually sprained ankle, or a
broken arm. That il much better than
a blood eliot on the brain or other in
iuIies which occur in the heavy line
plays. There the injurie are more apt
to be to the head and spine.
by open play the slugging and dirty
work sometime done in serimmages
would be impossible because it could be
seen. If one can get the game so that
the spectators eau see all of it, public
opinion will stop the foul play. What
slugging there is now goes on because
the crowd cannot see it.
The ten yard rule would allow light.
er men to get into the game which
would be an advantage that some peo'
pie are urging | am inclined to think
that there is chance for the ten yard
rule to be adopted by the rules commit
tee. Some OF the proposed changes are
50 radical that thy would practically
make new game. What We wan ito
DO i to preserve the game and eliminate
the Objectionable features"
