Meets Western Coaches and
Players in Chicago to
Discuss Game.

Rules Committee Asked to Settle Much
Vexed Question of Fair
Catch.

CHICAGO H.. oct. 6.-"New'' football
as embodied in the 1906 rules was the
subject OF an elaborate clinic al The
Chicago Beach Hotel yesterday, with
Western coaches. managers and ON
cials as spectators, and students. and
Walter Camp, the Yale gridiron dean,
as CHIEF operating surgeon.
Two denuiJe recommendations were
made. The much-disCussed Rule II. Sec
tion {. Paragraph ]. concerning the
drawing back of the dve center line
men, was puJ back into the hands of the
rules committee, who viii declue
whether the heavy men may be used at
will in the backheld, or only as Ackers-
The rules committee was also asked 10
decide as 10 whether or not the signal
of raising the arm before a fair catch.
especially on a punt out, is 10 make the
player about To catch immune from
tackliug, in view of the fact that the
ball this year is "anybody's ball" as
all are on side.
At Variance With Spirit of Rule.
Mr.. Camp believes that the use of tho
I'VE center linemeu In the backheld, even
If drawn back nve yards Tor purposes
other than kicking, is AT variance with
the spirit OF the rule and that such use
OF unemea should be uenalized five
yards for every oneDse. lie also be-
lieves that the man attempting 10 make
a fair catch should not be inteTfeTed
with, either by running into the player
or by standing in his way.
Following are other points clarified by
Mr.. Camp.
one forward pass Is allowed for each
sCrlmma &c and this pass does not have
TO be made back of tse lire of scrim-
mage, provided the ban is passed TO
a player who was behind the line or an
end.
When It Is a TOuChback-
II the forward pass goes over the goal
line before touching a player of either
side IL is a toUchback for the defenders
of the goal. and not a touchdown.
A bah free upon the ground after a
tumble NAV be kicked II the tumble
did not occur from a kick If the FUN
bic occurred from SCrimmege. another
scrimmaEc must intervene before the
further kicking can take place.
In all points not covered by the UNI
pire the referees decision is 1ral. Other
points explained by Mr.. Camp were In
regard 70 the safety. touchbaCk. on side
kick and duties of officials.

CAMBRIDGE. oct. 6.-In an editorial
on the Harvard Cambridss boat race
the Harvard Bulletin appearing yester-
day says in part: "Over-cOnfdence had
something 10 do with Harvard's defeat
our men undeTcstmaJed the Cambridge
crew.
They knew that they themselves
/ could 90 over the course IN fast time
and they made up their minds that
they would pay no attention 10 Cam

would row in q time trial. relying on
their ability 10 catch Cambridge before
the finish. Cambridge spurted from the
start and before long had a lead OF
four lengths that was TOO much for
Harvard 70 make up Fiuey made n
splendid attempt In the last mile bat
the race had then been lost a long time.
Our Style the Better
We have nothing 10 learn from the
Englishmen IN stroke or equipment. on
the contrary there IS much In our row
ins which they can adopt with advan-
tage. We believe that the stroke roved
by Harvard Is more effective In a four
mile race than the one Cambridge used.
The English critics said before the race
that II Harvard and Cambridge were TO
row separately over the course under
kFsq1sely the same conditions Harvard
ttsaiIle make the better time, their con
ftanElfa was that the Harvard crew did
utI kgOW how 10 race.
- AFFen that view was advanced IL
seeptd absurd. but IL was borne out by

America are superior 10 the tholepius
