Now that the foot ball has retired to
hibernate for another twelve months, the
plgskin reformer has again stepped into
the linellght and is in his glory once more
Despite the success which has greeted the
code under which the game was played dur
ing the season Just closed the air is full OF
suggestions by which the originators be-
lieve the play can be improved. The pro-
posed changes run the gamut from minor
to radical, and IL all were adopted the
game in 1907 would certainly be a weird
affair. Among the suggestions already
made the moro important follow: The
suggestion which found general favor and
which will be submitted to the rules COM
mittee, when it Officially meets read, as
follows: The substitution Of a fifteen
yard penalty for the loss Of the ball when
forward pass hits the ground. The
abolition Of the five-yard rule from center
in the forward pass. The allowing of two
forward passes in one scrimmage, " the
first does not cross the line Of scrimmage.
No increase in the number of downs IN
which to make ten yards The exchanging
Of positions between the iinemen and
backs, providing that such a shift does
not produce mass plays. The abolition Of
the rule prohibiting tackling below the
knees. The keeping OF FIVE men on the
side line back three yards from the grid
Omaha daily bee., 1906-12-16

Other proposed changes by former
players and coaches. who are not connected
with the rules committee embrace wider
scope and include the reducing Of the
necessary gain OF ten yards In three downs
to five yards inside the ten-yard lines;
increasing the number of downs in case
the ten-yard rule 10 retained from three
to four or making the gain fifteen yards
in four downs; permitting the side which
fumbles the ball to retain possession Of
the spheroid at the spot, where they put
the ball into play; increasing the time OF
halves from thirty minutes to forty
minutes; compelling the player TO wear
numbers 70 that spectators can know
what men are carrying the ball; preventing
all but four players In the back field from
advancing the ball; requiring both teams
to play seven men on the line at all times
limiting the maximum weight Of any one
player to 1856 pounds and scores Of others
both with or without merit.

THE STORM.

Probably the worse storm that ever
struck this county al this time Of year,
with the greatest amount of damage to
cotton crop, started with a slow rain
before day on Wednesday morning and
continued undated until s o clock
Thursday night, the wind coming in
gusts and occasionally reachind a high
rate Of speed. In town great many
trees we're blown down, being caused by
the roots being loosen by the continued
rains, as much as wind. Several win.
dows as we'll as awningsand signs on the
east sid G of the street were blown in
and torn down. and the street presented
a wrecked appearance on Thursday eve
ming On account Of the wires being
down there were no electric lights but
the business bart of the town did not
need them as they all clo'ed by dark
Incalculable damage has been done
the Gotten crop throughout the whole
county. Farmers from the countryto
day say the ground is white with the
cotton that has blown out, and as the
extreme heat the first of the month
had caused a largeportion of the cotton
to open, the damage to the crop, as
state above, is almost incalculable.
