NEW FooTBAIh RULEs.
Committee Urges omciaIs to Enforce
Penalties for Roughness.

New York, July 1s.-Dr. James A
Rabbit of Haverford. the secretary of
the American intercollegiate football
rule committee. has just made public
the preamble to the new rules for the
coming season on the gridiron. The
preamble as it now stands was sug-
eested at the sixth meeting held by the
committee. and with perhaps one or
two minor changes in the wording will
be at the opening of the rule book for
1905.
Particular stress is laid on the point
that rule-malxers cannot expurgate the
element Of roughness and unfair play.
but the committee suggests the remedy
in a closer observation by the officials
on the field of penalties for infracttons
and in addition advises the officers of
football playing colleges to mete out
severe punishment for offenders.
This preamble TO the rules follows;
THE committee believes that foot
ball, like all games involving personal
contact of players, must be dependent
for its quality and continuance upon
the spirit in which the game is played
Improvement in this spirit is measured
by the degree to which unnecessary
roughness and unfair play are elimi-
mated. This elimination cannot be eff
fected by rulemakeFs, but it can be
accomplished by a strict enforcement
of the rules and by the drastic punish
ment Of habitual offenders by the In
stitutiors which they represent.
1.-THE committee has appointed a
subcommittee to aid in the more in
teligent and efficient enforcement Of
the rules This subcommittee does
not intend or desire to force upon the
several institutions undesired jurisdic-
ton. nor does it plan to interfere with
their action 1t stands ready, how
over aid IN every NaN in its DOWeT
in the improvement of the quality of
the officials and will furnish explana-
ton and Interpretation of the rules
whenever requested to do so.
1.-The committee has increased the
penalties for offenses of a brutal
nature. and formally urges that all in
stitutions playing under these rules
shall bar from the game for year any
player disqualified twice during a
season for such play"

ENGLISH TENNIS TEAM TO COME
Women Net Experts May Visit Amer
lea to Play for Cnp.


New York. July 1S.@The project
women lawn tennis players was dis
cussed by a number of the returning
players from England yesterday and
the return of Miss May Sutton, who is
acting as the am AMBASSADOR OF the plan
to the English courts, is awaited with
no small show of interest. From the
details at hand the American girl has
attained some degree Of success in In
teresting the English women players
in the plan and has secured promises
of team visiting this country next
season to challenge for the trophy
which Will be offered under conditions
similar to those under which the Davis
International cup was offered.
The names of Mrs. Barger- Vallach,
Mrs. John Jacob Astor and Miss
Maude Wetmore have been associated
as those who were willing to donate
the trophy should Miss May Sutton be
successful in securing the promise of
the English women to challenge. Play
ers returning from abroad believe that
the American girl has enlisted the sup
port of Mrs. G.. w. Hillyard, who
paired with Miss Sutton in the all Eng
land championship doubles and who
IS an ex-champion of the English
courts.
Mrs Hillyard has won lawn tennis
titles in every part of the world, but
has never visited this country. It Is
said that Mrs. Hillyard stands ready to
head a team of her countrywomen
and come here not only to try for the
cup to be offered but also to compete
for the American national champion
ship.
