FOOTBALL RULES MAY
AROUSE SOME DISPUTE

Wide difference of opinion will be
expressed by eastern and western
gridiron experts at the annual meet
Ing of the football rules committee,
to be held next Friday and Saturday
at the Murray Hill Hotel in New York,
according to Coach A. Alonzo Stage,
of the University of Chicago. Stage,
believes that the present rules will
be allowed to stand, with few minor
changes.
II is understood that the Cornell au-
thorities favor lessening the 15-yard
penalty for the failure of forward
pass on the ground that the present
penalty Is too severe. Other eastern
critics will urge that this penalty be
taken of when team is on the often
sive within the 25-yard line near its
own goal line.
Another change. which is being
doomed will propose that the rule pro
viding for the disqualification OF the
player offending and the loss of half
the distance to the goal by his team
In case of fouling be abolished.

place at the Washington roller rink,
Tuesday evening at $3.50. The list
OF entries comprises seven Of the best
amateur long distance runners OF the
city and state and one Of the best IN

The race promises to be one OF the
best ever held In the state and in all
probability a new record will be hung
up for the distance. While Al. Hart,
the local star, seems the logical
choice as winner of the race the other
contestants will leave no stone un-
