New Foot Rules.

Important changes in the rule gov
erning the forward pass play, which
prove Of advantage to teams, and other
football legislation, were made by the
intercollegiate football rules commit
tee, which concluded it's session in New
York recently.
The new rule on the play of the
forward pass covers the illegal touch
ing of the ball. When illegally touch
ed the side making the illegal play
loses the ball to it's opponents on the
spot from which the pass was made.
According to the new rule only the
man OF the passer's side who first legal
~ touched the ball may hereafter
take it until it has been touched by an
opponent. If the forward is legally
touched and then free and is then
touched by another player Of the pass
er's side, the ball goes to the oppo-
nents at the spot where touched.
The committee considered the ques-
ton of defensive tactics in connection
with the forward pass and it was de-
cided that while the forward pass Is
in the air, the players Of the defensive
side may not use their hands or arms
on their opponents except to push
themout of the way to get at the ball.
In order to eliminate tackling it is pro-
vided that the players of the side
making the forward pass, who are elig-
ible to receive the pass, may use their
hands and arms just the same way
that players do down under the kick.
Another rule was passed making the
intermsssion between the halves of the
game Is minutes. A delay Of two min
utes beyond that time gives the ball
to the field, which may then place the
ball on the 30-yard line of the Offend
ing eleven.
Another rule adopted provides that
all forfeited games hereafter are to
score as one to nothing
The committee passed rule that all
penalties, except in the case of a man
disqualified, may be declined by the of
Tending side.
In the future the field judge will act
as timer instead of the linesman.
