TO DISCUSS FOOTBALL.
College Managers VII Confer on
Appointment Of Officials.

That the general football situation in the East
may be cleared up before the season begins the
central board of officials of the American Inter-
collegiate Football Rules Committee has called
two meetings. on September II and the
other the following Saturday Both will be
held at the Murray Hill Hotel in this CITY,
where the central board held preliminary con-
ference on Saturday night and worked well into
Sunday morning on the problems now confront
ing the game.
On Saturday night the football managers of
the entire Atlantic section are asked to meet at
the Murray Hill. They are instructed to come
prepared "(a) TO submit schedules for which
you desire appointment If such have not already
been sent in; fb) to present names Of officials
in your locality for addition to the list on an
proval Of the board; (c) to confer on financial
limitations in appointment: Id TO present lists
of preference or objection to aid the committee
in It's work; (e) to confer with the board upon
the more important appointments to be made I"
Harvard. Yale. Princeton. Pennsylvania Cor
nell. West Point and Annapolis were repre-
sented at the meeting held Saturday night In
addition, Dr. James A. Babbit the chairman of
the central board present. The duties Of
the board are to furnish explanation and inter
pretation of the rules, to improve the quality Of
the officials and TO aid in the official enforce
ment of the rules. A year ago it called a special
conference of officials on interpretation and the
meeting on September 81 has a similar object
But the meeting on Saturday is of primary i'm
portance.
The officials at the games have frequently
proved unsatisfactory and oftentimes the friend
1y relationship between colleges has been broken
through poor and incompetent work on the part
of the officials. That this may be remedied as
far as possible the central board is trying TO
act intermediary between the various
colleges which will meet the gridiron this
fall Some of the big institutions which have
been opponents for years are rather inclined to
steer shy of all innovations. but the central
board believes that its scheme will eventually
receive hearty cooperation and prove Of great
benefit to the American game OF football. None
of the colleges is compelled to obey the direc-
tions of the central board. but the various ap-
pointments merely come suggestions for the
best interest of all concerned.
