TWO NEW FOOT BALL RULES
Both Are in Connection With the
Forward Pass.

NEW YORK, May 1S.-Two changes IN
the foot ball rules for the coming season
were adopted by the intercollegiate foot bail
rules committee today.
The first rule provides that in the case OF
a forward pass the players must be at
least a yard back from the line when the
play is begun. This rule was adopted TO
remove the ambiguity of the old rule as to
whether the players were on the end OF the
scrimmage line or behind the line
The other rule provides that forward
pass crossing the goal Tine on the bound or
rolling. whether before or after being Legal
ly touched, shall count as touchDack 10
the defenders of the goal.
The name of the new official provided for
at the last meeting has been changed from
field umpire to field judge to prevent con-
fusion.
A call has been sent out for conference
to be held in New York, June Z, Tor the
consideration of various foot ball matters,
including the appointment of, and 5urisdic-
ton over officials, uniform fees and uni
form action in other matters.

PUBLIC FANCIEs DANDELIoN.
Trainer Madden Confident he Will
Win Brooklyn Handicap.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK. May 1S-Racegoers will
turn from Belmont TO Gravesend Monday
with relief The formers reverse routes
and plenitude of straightaway races are not
popular. although the straight course Tor
two-year- olds has it's advantages. For
older horses it is almost impossible to gauge
events with any accuracy,
Rase horses are nothing If not notionai'
and once educated to run around the ring
they hardly seem to know what to do over
the long straightaway route. They swerve,
run zigzag and put such crimp In form
that racegoers do not fancy these events
for speculative purposes. Thursday four Oh
the six events were run on the stralshts'
and the public grew very weary.
Whether the winner of the Brooklyn

Belmont Park or not is the all-absorbing
question. Most people think he has, and
that Frank Hitchcock's fve-year-old Dan

While Dandelion's Belmont success was
not so fast as that Of Superman at the
same distance. the way he won with l28

pressive performance In the handicap Ill
vision up to date.
General opinion places Dandellons princl-
pal opponents Monday as Flip Flap, Neaion'

man. Yesterday Nealon worked the handi-
cap route a mile and a quarter. in EOS and
Flip Flap in 2.O7 80, while Go Between's
win at Belmont this week was an impress
sive one.
A heavy track will help Go Between and
Nealon and let out Superman. Dandelion
can run in slop. but Is not partial to It, Ine
field will probably number fifteen or eignt,

well deserve his laurels. John Madden, VINO
has been pointing Dandelion for this race
from Little Rock and Benning. Is unusually
confident of success. and his opinion will
be accepted by many.

A three-team tie for the lead in the Capt.
tai City League was made yesterday after
noon when st. Stephens Institute defeated
Columbia Athletic Club in a brilliant con-
test by 8 to 8.
Both teams went at it tooth and nail for
the entire nine innings. and up to the last
round 1t was anybody's game, both teams
having tussled from the fifth inning with
the score standing to 3. ST. Stephens
broke the ice in it's turn at bat in the
ninth by getting two earned runs across
the score point
1t was a game full of spectacular plays
and heavy hitting. BILLY" Keane got away
with the fielding honors, capturing five long
flies one of which was proclaimed by many
to have been one of the most difficult
catches made in the league this season. He
yanked it down in the fifth after st. Ste
phen's had totaled two runs and a man
was on second. Heinrich landed on the
ball with hit that certainly looked good
for a few bases. The little outfielder while
on the dead run and twisting his body
threw out his hands and caught the ball
while leaping In the air.

The endurance run committee Of the New
York Motor Club announces that the route
selected for the test Of June will be from
New York to Albany by way Of Pittsield.
q distance slightly In excess Of 200 miles.
From New York the route passes north
ward through Yonkers. Tarrytown, Peeks-
kill and Fishkill to Poughkeepsie. There
the route leaves the Hudson river and goes
through Millbrook, Armenia and Lakeville,
enters the Berkshire Hills and passes
through Salisbury and Great Darlington to
Lenox. Up to that point the route is the
same as that covered In the opposite direc-
ton on the last day of the 1905 Glidden
tour. From Lenox the route continues to
Pittsfeld. and there turns eastward through
Lebanon and Canaan Four Corners to
Chatham. From Chatham the route lies al
most due north through Vaiatie and
Schodack Center, finishing at Albany.
The route is said to offer good roads
through practically the entire distance for
an endurance run. In no other direction
from New York can there be found an equal
mileage offering such wealth of fine
scenery. The Berkshire Hills will be at
their best In June. Except in the imme7
date vicinity of New York. much Of the
route is through open country. where the
passage of the tourists will cause no In
convenience to other users Of the high
way.
Albany is considered an ideal place to end
the tour, as 1t Is readily accessible from
New York by both rail and boat. If de-
sired. contestants may ship their cars back
to New York the same evening. Immediately
after the conclusion Of the test.
Oliver A. Quayle, president of the New
York State Association Of the A. A. A., q
resident of Albany, has beer asked to ON
ciate as the finish Judge to time the con-
testants at the completion of the long jour
ney.
