THE FORWARD PASS.
Its Development Will Be the Years
Feature in Foot Ball.

The development Of the forward pass will
be the feature of the year 1907 in foot ball.
The intercollegiate rules committee In its
last meeting held in New York a week ago,
made this certainty by removing some of
the restrictions on this play. Last fall the
forward pass was purely an experiment in
the gridron game. The members of the
committee, not knowing with what success
1t could be worked. hedged 1t about so that
it was useful only as trick play. The rule
which was responsible for it was that
which provided that when the forward pass
hits the ground the ball should be Surren-
dered to the opposing team on the very spot
from which the play started.
The inevitable result of this rule was to
restrict it's use to the center of the field.
If a team had the ball within it's own twen-
ty-yard line it could not afford to risk a
forward pass. knowing that the ball was
likely to be lost to the opponents in this
dangerous locality. As remedy for this
the rules committee has substituted a DIS
lance penalty i which the side making an
Illegal forward pass loses fifteen yards on
the first and second downs instead of losing
the ball. The members of the rules COM
mittee are right in the assumption that the
forward pass still has unlimited possibilt-
ties. Under the modified rules 1t will be
tried much oftener than heretofore and
will add to the spectacular features of the
game.
The other changes in the rules were fully
as satisfactory as that regarding the for
ward pass. The frightening of the game
to halves of thirty-tive minutes meets with
general approval Not until the new rules
regarding the taking out Of time were put
into effect last fall did we know just how
much valuable time was wasted by players
who wanted to take a breathing spell by
feigning an injury. Although the halves
have been lengtheneu to thfrty-f1ve minutes.
the big games will still be played much
more quickly than were contests Of similar
length under the old rules.
The committee has done the game good
service by making the use of The second
umpire obligatory. Last year he was pretty
much a nuisance, not because an additional
man could not be used, but simply because
his duties were not defined. Under the
present regulations the second umpire takes
over many of the duties which formerly
belonged to the overworked referee. The
game under the revised 1905 rules rught
to be a great Improvement In this, the
greatest of college sports.

records of 2.10 or better The speediest of
these was The Abbott (2.0310. Geers' rec

Andy Mcdowell and George Saunders with
five each. Budd Doble, who marked Nancy
Hanks in 204 in 1892 and gave Dexter his
record of 2.17 many years before, drove
only four trotters to their best 2 10 records.
W. w. Bair, who drove Maud S. to her
championship record of 2.OS24 in 1885, never
