BASKET BALL FOR U. OF U.
Burton MuSSer of L. D. S. u,
Elected President of State
School League.

After these many years, the Uni
Versity of Utah IS to add basket ball
to the list of sports. Some say Utah's
athletes have made the east bench
school more famous than it's diplomas.
This may not be true, but nevertheless
every person who reads the daily pa
pers in the west are aware that there
is such an institution in the state
through it's doings in the athletic cir
cIes. Now Utah has taken up basket
ball. and next season the doings of
Maddock's men i'm this line may be
expected to be chonicled as often as
the doings of the football team and
track teams.
At meeting of the state league yes
terday the U. of u, through Coach Joe
Maddox, asked for admission into the
league. 1t was at once granted. The
meeting was held at the Latter-day
Saints university, and representatives
frcm the Latter-day Saints university,
Brigham Young university, Brigham
Young college, Agricultural college,
Weber Stake academy, University of
Utah and the state school for the deaf
were present.
The only change in the constitution
was the adoption Of the one-year ELI
gibiIity rule. Officers were elected for
the coming wear as follows: Burton
Musser of the L. ID. S. U.r president
A Bulge of the w. S. A, vice Presi-
dent, and w. Aired of the B. Y. c.,
secretary and treasurer.

JOE MADDOX ON
FOOTBALL RULES
Tells Effect Changes Made by Anal
gamated Rules Committee Has
on Game.
PREVENTS ALL PILING UP
cOMPELS TEAMS TO RESORT TO
MORE OPEN PLAY.
BY JOSEPH MADDOX.

The radical changes in football rules,
which have been tentatively adopted
by the American intercollegiate foot
ball rules committee, will, It is prophe-
sled by members of the committee,
satisfy the bitterest opponents of the
old game by insuring a free open, run
ming and kicking game. Mass plays
are practically legislated out of exist
ence, and consequently much of the
incident brutality.
In speaking of the new rules for
1906, it may be we'll for the benefit of
those who do not know, to state just
what the changes are. The most ra-
dical departure is, L believe, in the
rule giving the ball to the player who
secures it after it has touched the
ground after a kick. This is regarded
as certain to help open up the game, as
it will force the defense to keep extra
men in the back field and will put a
premium on kicking.
1t was also decided to rule that ten
yards, instead of five, must now be
gained on three downs.
One forward pass on each play can
now be made by any man behind the
line, but the ball must go over the line,
must not touch the ground before being
caught and must not be caught by
any others except those who were on
the ends when the ball was put in
! play. Neither must the ball be lObbed
over the line within five yards on
either side of the center.
No More Piling Up.
Another rule tentatively adopted
/ reads: 1.-The ball shall be considered
dead when any portion of the person
or runner with the ball, except his
| hands or feet, touch the ground when
| in the grasp of an opponent" The OBJ
| ject of this rule is to stop a player
/ from squirming along after he has
been downed, thereby inviting the op-
| pOnents to sit on his head or pile upon
4 him.
Another commendable change is
made possible by the new rule which
! is to the effect that each side may call
| for time three times each half; after
/ that each call for time is to be penal
/ lied by the loss of three yards, unless
the injured player be removed from
| the game
In looking at the situation from the
viewpoint of an athlete, and one who
| has played the game under every
phase of the old rules, without having
/ been injured, or even having time
! taken out, IT seems a question as to
whether the radical changes were real
! ly necessary, and although 1 believe
the majority of persons In Utah who
understand football were satisfied with
the old rules, I know that all will join
/ with me in taking up the new rules
| and thus show our confidence in the
! American rules committee

London, April THE sixty-third an
nual boat race between crews repre-
senting the Universities Of Oxford and
Cambridge was rowed today over the
usual course from Putney to Mortlake,
on the Thames, a little over four and
a half miles Cambridge won by three
and a half lengths, after an unexciting
contest Time, 10 minutes "a seconds.
Cam bridge from the start took the
lead and was never in the slightest
danger. The Oxford men struggled
gamely, but the work was so Furnishing
that several Of them collapsed at the
finish. Weather was perfect. The day
was bright and sunny, the wind was
very light and the water was smooth,
and there was very little choice in the
stations Enormous crowds thronged
all parts of the course
Oxford Wins Toss.
oxford won the toss and chose the
Surrey side. The two boats got away
nicely at 1908 d. m Cambridge struck
the water first, pulling 3S strokes dur
ing the first minute, to OxfOrd's 81.
The nose Of-the Cambridge boat quick
" showed in front and at the half
nile post Cambridge was half length
to the good and were rowing in lively
style. with perfect finish to their
strokes. They increased their lead to
full length before Craven Steps,
about three-qUarters of a mile from
the start, we're reached. The Cam
bridge crew drew away with every
stroke. At Hammersmith bridge, one
and three-quarters of a mile from the
start Cam bridge already held the race
well in hand with a lead of two
lengths.
Oxford Rolling Badly.
The Oxford boat at that stage of the
race was rolling badly. Shortly after
ward the oxford men spurted a little
and took their rivals water, but from
that time on it was merely a process
sion. though the OxfOrd oarsmen stuck
10 their work in a most persevering
way. Cambridge shot past Barnes
bridge. a little over three and a half
miles from the start, about five lengths
i'm front of the Oxford boat, some of
whose Oarsmen were showing signs of
distress Cambridge could have won
practically by any distance they liked,
but their stroke slowed down on near
ing the finish and Cambridge passed
the winning post the easiest of win
rers.

week great results and changes have
been noticed on all OF the athletes. The
fine spring weather has stimulated the
season all training had to be done in
the gymnasium.
Fast Time In Spirits.
In the short races, the 100 yards and
22O yards, Fuzzy Moore is making
brilliant time for this early in the sea-
son and may be in such condition for
the track meet with Provo on May G
as to, put the record for the 100 yards
below the ten seconds mark. Last week
in practice he twice equalled the state
record time of ten seconds for the 100
yards made by Horace Whitney two
years ago.
Pitt Showing Strong.
In the 220 yards Pitt is showing good
form and with Parke as a strong man
also in this distance there should be
no lack of material for this event. AL
though Parke may be withheld for the
hurdles. which are his strong forte. In
the 440 yards and $50 yards, Hume is
the strongest man at present, although
judging from the Improvement on
Brown. Ledger and Swapp he will
have to work hard to hold that SUI
premacy.
"Tuffy" Coming Up.
Probably the one person who has
shown the most marked Improvement
1 OF all the new men on the track is
| fluffy" Bennion- He has been work
| ing so consistently and has shown such
| marked improvement within the past
| week that Coach Maddox has termed
| him as a winner" Brown is working
| hard and together with Parke, Moore
and Pitt, will probably make up the re-
| lay team, although Fred Bennion is
| bidding strong for one of those posi-
| tions. In the field events just as much
| progress is noticed as that which
marks the track events Brown and
| Swapp are working hard I'm the board
jump and high jump.
swapp Jumping Some.
Last week Swapp in practice made
several broad jumps of more than
| twenty-five feet each and has been
| making almost six feet in the high
| Jumps. Russell has been working some
| on the pole vault and the discus AL
though the cur men for the pole vault
| depend mostly on Mark Adams, the
| crack ex-Provo man.
Adams on Sick List.
| Adams has been sick since entering
/ the university, but has now improved
so that he viii be able 20 commence
| active training immediately. The boys
| are becoming quite used to the discus
now and Swapp is putting 1t more than
| 100 feet Bennion is resuming his old
form with the hammer and shot, and il
! is supposed that he will beat all previ-
\ Gus records in this line.
Baseball Looming Up.
But not only are the track events
being pushed. Baseball is now thor
oughly rooted in the students and three
/ regular teams have begun active prac-
tice contemplating games. The regular
| ''U'' team is being organized rapidly
and will be one of the best ever put

The ERA is in receipt of a letter
from Ed. Apperson, formerly of Sill
yer City, but for many years a resi-
dent of San Francisco, whose expert
ence in the quake was different from
that of all others so far reported, but
equally as exciting. He and his wife
were sleeping in a folding bed, which
took several spins around the room
and then collapsed, pinning them
down, while the furniture and plaster
ing fell all oyer them. Ed. was for
merly a foot ball player and an all
round kicker, and when he had fin
ished with that folding bed it had the
appearance of second hand step
ladder, but it still continued its mad
whirl around the room. His residence
was pretty badly wrecked by the
quake but it escaped the flames. His
father and mother and sister and
their families escaped without per-
sonal injury, as also did John NJ.
Wright and Gurdon Bradley, all
we'll known in this section. Ed. had
previously been in many earthquakes,
and rather enjoyed them, but this
last one came pretty near giving him
