NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-Despite the
general belief that the national inter
collegiate committeey which held an
an-day session in the Murray Hill

new rules which were adopted year
ago and designed TO debTutalize the
pigskin game, the meeting was de-
voted almost entirely TO discussing a
number Of amendments that have been
submitted.
IN fact. william 7. Reid, of Har-
ward, secretary, said that the meeting
was simply held TO talk over matters
informally, and for the purpose of put
ting an end To the business of the
