The jurymen issued this statement
to the press Immediately after their

New Foot Ball Rules.

The actual matter of the rules has
not been materially changed, owing to
the satisfaction that was found with

The 10-yard rule is preserved exactly
as before. Forward passing has been
altered to certain extent, making it
less risky to use it on the first and
second down. Instead of losing the
ball in case the forward pass strikes
the ground before striking a player of
either side, the same side retains pos
session Of the ball by losing Is yards
in distance. When the forward pass
is essayed on the third down, however,
and it strikes the ground without strik-
ing a player, or is otherwise made H.
legally, the ball must be surrendered

in the line until the ball is put in play
1t was also determined that the for
ward pass or tripping or hurdling by
the side that did not put the ball in
play in a scrimmage, should be pena-
liked Is yards.
In order to prevent signaling by one
man and catch and run by another,
it was legislated that If one man of the
side signals his intention of making a
fair catch, and then another of his
side who did not signal, makes the
catch, this player may not run with
the ball nor is he entitled to the priv
ileges coming from a fair catch, but
the ball must be put down at the point
where he caught it for a scrimmage by
his side.
