RULES DISCUSSED
Teams of Equal Strength Can
not Make Much Headway
Against Each Other.
tribune Special Sporting Service.

Tribune Special Sporting Service.
BOSTON, Mass, Oct. 13.-Reports
from all over the country have the
same thing to say with reference to tine
ability Of football teams to gain under
tho present system OF rules. All ap-
pear to agree that except where two
teams are unequal IN strength there is
30 possibility Of any team being able
TO build up consistent style of attack
during the season. There is practically
the same uuanimity with respect to the
forward pass. IN the games played It
was tried frequently, No team was
able TO gain more than 80 per cent of
the times it was tried. The rest Of the
time the ball went TO the other side
for the reason that it touched the
ground before touching any player on
either side.
Straight Rushes Ineffective.
Pau! J. Dashiel, who did more than
any other man TO introduce the forward
pass into the rules, said that he could
readily see how the ball might be taken
to the ten or fifteen yard line OF either
team in the coming games, but he Is

over from that point, OF course. goals
can be kicked from there, and quarter.
back kicks can be tried, but straight
rushing seems to have no chance TO
score. This Is but another evidence
that the condition predicted in the new
game has come to pass whereby most
scores Will be the result OF fumbles
or other misplays and more or less the
result Of what has hitherto been held
to be luck rather than good play.
There was greater interest among
experts in the game TO see how the
defense would line up rather than in
any other phase of the opening games.
In few cases the old form OF defen.
sive formation was used, but even with
this there was almost invariably
spreading out OF the line to cover a
greater compass from end to end, all
tending to make end runs, on which SO
much faith was pinned, more difficult
than ever. In most cases the teams
on defense played two men behind the
line, A few placed one man about If
teen yards back and the other thirty.
but the majority had both men fully
thirty yards back, This means that
there is disposition to regard the
possibilities OF man getting away un-
expectedly for a long free run as unusual
ly great in the earlier games. It is
likely that as the teams develop their
defense more perfectly, there Will be
a lessenipg of the distance which one
Of the two men withdraws, as closer
TO the line he will be better to inter
rupt quarterback kicks and forward
passes.
