Are Necessary IN Rules.
by Telegraph 70 The tribune !

Philadelphia, Jan 29.-John c. Bell. the Uni
versity OF Pennsylvania's representative on the
football rules committee, arrived home to-day.
When asked his opinion of the new suggestions
in the playing rules. Mr.. Bell said.
The rules increasing the penalties for bru-
tally, unnecessary rOughness and unspOrtsman-
ike conduct will I think meet with general
public approval Personally, In cases OF dis
qualification, l favored additional penalty
prohibiting a substitute taking the disqualified
players place for period OF five minutes I
think this cumulative penalty would be more
severe and prove a greater detriment than the
distance penalty agreed upon by the committee
The majority OF the committee thought other

opening up the game are but a short step in
the right direction, and II not further amended
