A Change In Scoring.

might stand and by assuming this po-
sition be not eligible In any event to
receive a forward pass. This position
IL more than on. foot back OF the end
of the scrlmmage line aud not full
yard back. No mEa occupying this
position Is eligible to receive a for
ward pass, the object Of this rule be-
Ing to make man stand either up to
the scrimmage line or full yard
back, where the official can readily see
that he is not on the line.
A most vital change In the rules Is
that regarding scoring. For several
seasons the advisabillty Of reducing
the value of field goal has been dis
cussed. and particularly the advisable.
ty Of reducing the value OF a kicked
goal from placement This year the
matter took on form, and the value Of
a field goal was reduced from four
points TO three points. regardless Of
how the goal from the field might be
scored.

Over 1900 Games.
The fact that over 1900 games are
already scheduled to be played during
the season of three months between
teams of colleges, schools and other
educational institutions is indicative
of the importance of football to the
sport lovers Of the land. 1t is practi-
cally impossible to ascertain how many
games will be played by athletic clubs,
Y. M. c. AS, military organizations,
etc.
Many changes are noted in the new
rules, recently issued in Spalding's Of
ficial football guide. While large
percentage of the alterations are Of
minor importance, others will have an
important bearing on the technical
side Of the game, though not neces-
isarily changing the appearance or
form Of the game as played last year.
Therefore the changes In the rules
will be more noticeable to the players
than to the spectators.

very important change, and 1t provides
| very great release to any team driv-

when there Is a strong wind blowing

| team that has been forced to make

out Of their difficulties even If the
wind is against them. Formerly they
were forced to kick the ball out while
the opponents stood waiting for 1t and
ready to make fair catch, or, failing
| In that, still to have good chance at
a drop kick.
The defensive side were forbidden to
kick the ball out Of bounds, and hence
! their helplessness, for even If the first
try by the opponents failed to make
,, goal 1t put the ball across the goal line
once more. and the defenders were in
the same difficult position again. Now,
under the new rule, In the first place, z
side has all the advantages of kicking
out as under the present rules and
none of the disadvantages, for they
may scrimmage the ball on the twenty
FIVE yard line instead of taking the
kickout.
That gives them chance at the run
ming game and an opportunity to work
the ball out a little at least, with the
possibility of considerable gain Then,
again, If held they can pass the ball
back for kick, and the kicker can
kick the ball out of bounds, play

Aids Original Defensive Side.
The rule goes still further, too. If fol-

1t has always been good point for
team having a strong kicker to kick
the ball across the goal line on the
kickoff, because then the opponents

in a state of turmoil over the re-

vacation, with the assurance that it
would not be accepted, and when he
arrived home he found that he was
minus job, and consequently he
intimates that there will be merry
